Tyra Sanchez’s disgusting social media rant hours after the news of the death of The Vivienne caused outrage and now fans want RuPaul to take action

RuPaul’s Drag Race star Tyra Sanchez has made another vile ‘crematorium’ joke after the tragic death of The Vivienne.

Tyra first sparked outrage shortly after the tragic news that The Vivienne, real name James Lee William, had died aged 32 on January 5. Tyra took to social media within hours to share a string of tweets written in response to a 2020 post by The Vivienne.

In a tweet almost five years old, The Vivienne had written: “Bet Tyra was fuming when she Realised Netflix Spoiled the win Too. Sorry gal. You Tried though.” Adding a new response, Tyra penned: “Yet it doesn’t compare to the fumes of the crematorium.”

Tyra has now appeared to double down and yesterday posted a photo of a crematorium with the words ‘songs I would play if I owned a crematorium’ written across it. Alicia Keys’ Girl on Fire played in the background.

The backlash to Tyra’s recent post was swift, with disgusted comments quickly piling up beneath the post on X, formerly Twitter.

One person raged: “You are so f****** disgusting.” Another social media user echoed: “How sad that you once had the status of a queen and now you are just a despicable vagabond hungry for a pitiful show, laaaaaame.” Someone else added: “Girl, you were too scared to reply when The Vivienne was alive so you had to clap back after they had passed? You’re sad get a life.”

Fans have also called on RuPaul to strip Tyra of her Drag Race crown in the wake of her vile outbursts. On X, one Drag Race fan begged: “@RuPaul take away Tyra Sanchez’s win now. The s**t she posted had no right to allow her to stay in the hall of fame, she is a disgrace to the planet and to the fandom and you should discard anything related to her as you did Sherry Pie. Letting this slide is a big f**k up.”

Another added: “I think #RuPaul should take the crown from Tyra Sanchez and give it to #Raven in a symbolic but powerful act. The level of disrespect that girl has, already crossed all limits with her comments about The Vivienne. Do the right thing Mama Ru.”

A third wrote: “Strip Tyra Sanchez of her Crown for Disrespecting Late Queen.” Tyra has since responded to calls to have her stripped of her title, raging in a social media post: “Calling for a crown/title that I could give two f***s about is stupid. You’re the only ones caught up in that fairytale. It means absolutely nothing. Y’all been hollering 15min for 15 years. F**k that crown. F**k @RuPaul F**k @RuPaulsDragRace F**k @WorldOfWonder and f**k you too.”

The Vivienne’s death was confirmed on Sunday and shared by their publicist and friend Simon Jones. He took to Twitter/X to share a statement that read: “It is with immense sadness that we let you know our beloved James Lee Williams – The Vivienne, has passed this weekend.

“James was an incredibly loved, warm- hearted and amazing person. Their family are heartbroken at the loss of their son, brother and uncle. They are so proud of the wonderful things James achieved in their life and career. We will not be releasing any further details. We please ask that James’s family are given the time and privacy they now need to process and grieve.”

Shortly after the tragic news was announced, RuPaul paid an emotional tribute, saying: “With a broken heart, I join the entire Drag Race universe in mourning the loss of the Vivienne – an incredibly talented queen and a lovely human being.”

The Mirror has reached out to Tyra for comment.

Coronation Street star Charlotte Jordan, who plays Daisy, has quit the popular soap, becoming the fifth star to leave the cobbles in recent weeks

Coronation Street star Charlotte Jordan, who plays barmaid Daisy Midgeley, has quit the ITV soap and is expected to leave the series later this year. Charlotte joined the cast of the soap in 2020, but has announced that after four years she has decided to “explore other opportunities.”

Charlotte said: “My time at Coronation Street is something I’ll always cherish. After a brilliant four years for Daisy, it’s time for me to start a new chapter and explore other opportunities.”

A source told The Sun that “Charlotte has loved her time on the cobbles but is young, ambitious and hungry to see what else is out there for her. She told bosses last April that her next contract would be her last, giving them a year to craft an exciting exit storyline. She’s still filming now and her final scenes will play out in early summer. She’s adored by cast and crew and will be hugely missed.”

Charlotte won a soap award for her portrayal of an acid attack victim
During her time on the cobbles, Charlotte’s character Daisy has been central to a blackmail plot, and was stalked by Justin Rutherford, which culminated in Daisy and Ryan being the victims of an acid attack. Both the Katie Piper Foundation and Acid Survivors Trust International supported the production team when the scenes were filmed, and provided information on the long term impact of an acid attack.

At the time, soap boss Iain MacLeod said: “We were keen to show the long-term reality for people who are subjected to this kind of attack. It is something we might often read about in the papers but perhaps don’t fully understand, in terms of the depth and variety of effects it can have. As well as the medical impacts, we explore the social fallout of having your appearance profoundly changed, both in terms of your own ability to process that and how the wider world reacts to you.”

Charlotte has had some intense storylines since she joined Coronation Street
“The story will at times be heartbreaking but we felt it was an important one to tell.”

Following the stalking storyline, Charlotte won the British Soap award for Best Dramatic Performance in 2023.

After the New Year departure of actress Helen Worth, who played Gail for 50 years, four more actors are due to leave in 2025, alongside Charlotte. Colson Smith, who plays Craig Tinker, Sue Cleaver, who plays Eileen Grimshaw, and Sue Devaney (Debbie Webster) are all set to leave in the coming months, while Luca Toolan, who played Mason Radcliffe, has already departed.

Lucy Fallon, who plays Bethany Platt, is also due to leave, but only temporarily. Lucy announced that she is expecting a baby, so Bethany will be written out for a time while Lucy is on maternity leave.

Loose Ruth Langsford is said to be planning a big party to celebrate her divorce from ex Eamonn Holmes as he moves on with relationship therapist Katie Alexander

Newly single Ruth Langsford has some big plans for when her divorce from Eamonn Holmes, 65, is officially confirmed.

The Loose Women anchor, 65, has been leaning on celebrity pals like Rylan Clark and Coleen Nolan in the wake of her marriage ending while her estranged husband has moved on with 42-year-old relationship counsellor Katie Alexander since the former couple announced they were going their separate ways last year.

As Eamonn focuses his attention on a new relationship, Ruth is far more concerned with having fun with her pals – with a huge divorce party reportedly being planned for when Ruth is legally free of her ex. The TV presenter is thought to have said “life begins after divorce” following her shock split.

Ruth and Eamonn announced the had parted ways in May after 14 years of marriage. The exes, who once presented ITV show This Morning together, first met in 1996 and welcoming son Jack Holmes, 22, into the world in 2002 before at Elvetham Hall in Hampshire in June 2010.

Since announcing her split from Eamonn, Ruth has reportedly thrown herself into work and been prioritising self-care amid rumours Eamonn is planning to pop the question to his new partner Katie. After toasting the New Year with friends, it’s thought Ruth is planning a big bash to mark her divorce once it goes through.

The mum-of-one is said to admit her split from Eamonn has “not been without its horrible days” but her friends have helped her get through the turmoil. According to one insider, trips to the hairdresser and “shopping for a new wardrobe” have been Ruth’s form of therapy.

“Ruth’s sass is definitely back. She’s ready for new adventures, and who knows, a man – if and when, it’s on her terms,” a source tells Heat magazine when discussing Ruth’s future post-Eamonn. “For now, girls’ nights and piña coladas are filling the void. Ruth has a force field of friends – they’re her armour and they give her great advice.”

Over the week, Ruth gave her followers a significant update on her mum’s health, following her hospitalisation before Christmas due to a broken pelvis. Joan, 94, sustained the painful injury in a fall, causing Ruth great concern and leading her to keep fans updated on her progress via social media.

However, there’s been a major health breakthrough for the Loose Women star’s mum, as Ruth announced that she was finally discharged and able to return home. Sharing the positive news with her Instagram followers, Ruth posted a video showing her mum back at home, enjoying quality time with her dog, Maggie.

Set to Everly Fair’s cover of I Love You Always Forever, Ruth captioned: “SHE’S HOME! ! ! Mum is finally out of hospital! Thank you to all the nursing staff at St.Peter’s Hospital and Woking Community Hospital for taking such good care of her. As you can see, Maggie is VERY happy to have her home!”

Last month, news broke that Joan had suffered a fall while preparing for Christmas festivities. Ruth shared a video of her elderly mum dancing in the kitchen while peeling vegetables and wrote: “No dancing in my kitchen peeling the veg for my darling Mum this Christmas….She’s had a fall and fractured her pelvis! She’s ok…ish, no surgery required thank goodness but she needs rest and time to heal now. She’s in hospital at the moment but I’m hoping to get her home soon.”

This marked the second time in two years that Joan had fallen and broken something during the festive season, having previously broken her hip in 2023.

ITV Loose Women star Ruth Langsford has opened up on her heartbreak over her sister Julia’s death, revealing how it’s inspired her to ‘live her life well’ every day.

During a recent episode of Loose Women, ITV panellist Janet Street-Porter opened up about her reflections on life after celebrating her 78th birthday. She admitted to feeling increasingly conscious of being the last surviving member of her immediate family, following the deaths of her parents and younger sister.

Janet shared a nostalgic photo online from her birthday with her sister, explaining to her fellow Loose Women that it was a significant moment for her to reminisce and reflect.

Ruth Langsford chimed in on the topic of ageing and remembering deceased family members, saying: “I’m 65 this year, it’s very easy to slip into that, ‘Oh god, I can’t believe I’m 65, I’m so old’. I don’t, I now have to look forward and think, ‘How amazing I’m 65, I’m here, I’m alive, I’m standing up’.”

Ruth Langsford issues heartwarming tribute to late sister as she admits ‘it drives me’
The ITV star also spoke about the heartbreaking loss of her sister Julia, revealing that she always remembers her on her birthday. She said: “I remember when she died thinking, ‘I must live my life well because she didn’t get the chance’. She wouldn’t want me being sad forever without her. So, that kind of drives me on.

Ruth’s younger sister tragically took her own life in 2019 at the age of 62. Julia had been struggling with depression for many years prior to her untimely death, reports the Liverpool Echo.

Following the tragedy, Ruth took a hiatus from her presenting duties to grieve for her sister. Ruth Langsford previously opened up about her way of coping with sorrow, revealing on the show that she would often cry in the shower to release her emotions.

She confessed in 2022 to her co-stars: “When my sister died, I had good cries in the shower because it’s very private. “I think if you’re in the bathroom, whether you like a bath or a shower, it’s that shut the door and nobody really disturbs you. I could have a good old, proper old, loud snotty cry and get that out of my system.”

In another heartfelt moment on the show, Coleen Nolan reflected on her late sister Bernie and the impact that her memory has on her perspective on life’s struggles.

She shared with fellow panellists that she tells herself: “Whenever I get down about things or really worried about things, I just bring myself back into the moment and I go, ‘Yeah, but Bernie would love to be here with those problems and she’s not.’

“Then with birthdays, obviously as you get older, I’ve got my 60th coming up in March, people go, ‘Oh, you’re 60, you’re getting on’ and all that.

“To me, it’s cheesy I know but honestly, because of things that have happened in the past and losing loved ones when it was way too soon to loose them, it makes me celebrate when I wake up in the morning, let alone if it’s my 60th. I literally wake up and go, ‘I’m still here, I’m alive.’”

Ru Paul’s Drag Race UK star The Vivienne, whose real name was James Lee Williams, was reportedly found dead by their devastated father and stepmum and had ‘passed away a day or two before being found’

Ru Paul’s Drag Race UK star, The Vivienne, was found dead by their devastated father, according to reports.

The Vivienne, whose real name was James Lee Williams, was confirmed to have died aged 32 at the weekend. A friend of the drag star as since shared they were found dead by their distraught dad and stepmum on Sunday. Police have previously confirmed they were called to an address in Chorlton-by-Backford, near Chester, at 12.22pm on Sunday following reports of a sudden death.

“Their devastated dad raised the alarm and believed they had passed away a day or two before being found,” a source told the Sun. “James was due to move to a £400,000 house next week, and had a holiday lined up. They were planning a tour and really had everything to live for.”

Announcing The Vivienne’s death, their publicist issued a statement that read: “It is with immense sadness that we let you know our beloved James Lee Williams – The Vivienne, has passed this weekend. James was an incredibly loved, warm- hearted and amazing person. Their family are heartbroken at the loss of their son, brother and uncle.

“They are so proud of the wonderful things James achieved in their life and career. We will not be releasing any further details.

He added: “These are words I never ever wanted to write. Viv was a close friend, a client and someone I loved very much. From the moment I met them in 2019 I knew we could create magic together and I became their manager. Their talent was immense and the light they brought to every room was astonishing. No one has ever made me laugh in my life as much as Viv did. Their comic genius and quick wit was like no other.

“I’m so proud and lucky that Viv was such a big part of my life every day for the last 5 years. It’s tragic that their career was only just beginning. In musical theatre Viv had found a space and career they loved, excelled and thrived in. I am heartbroken and devastated at this news. RIP my wonderful friend. You left us way too soon.”

The Vivienne’s last public appearance came just a week before their death. They appeared in Blackpool while starring in the West End musical Chitty Chitty Bang Bang as The Childcatcher. The star also shared a post just days before passing, urging followers to donate to charity.

Greg James issued an apology for his ‘gentle trolling’ of Neil Young that confused fans on social media, but he has been warned by a former BBC employee

A BBC star has sent a warning to Greg James after revealing he had been axed from Radio One.

Presenter Greg, 39, issued an apology to fans after a post hinted he had quit his morning show. Followers of BBC Radio One’s Breakfast Show had shared their fear that he was leaving after he made fun of Neil Young’s Glastonbury U-turn; the singer has agreed once again to perform at the iconic festival after initially pulling out.

He shared a reel of slides, initially claiming he was “no able to continue” to work for the organisation due to a change in events. Despite his post being a joke, Greg was forced into explaining what was going on in an Instagram post. He uploaded a video alongside his wife, Bella Mackie, to share the joke with his followers, insisting it was just a bit of “gentle trolling”.

However, one former BBC star was quick to comment on Greg’s explanation with a word of warning. Phil Taggart joked writing alongside a laughing emoji: “I got binned for playing Joy Division. They’ve marked your cards with this Neil Young joke.”

Phil’s words were warmly received by followers clicking the like button. Phil left his role at the BBC in 2020. He had started with the organisation in 2013, where he was the host of BBC Introducing in Northern Ireland. Shortly after, he took on a job on Radio 1’s national programmes.

In Greg’s initial post, he wrote: “Radio 1 is a corporate turn off, and not for me like it used to be”. He claimed he was instead be focusing on his “many podcasts”.

Further along the reel, he said there had been an “error” and insisted he would indeed return to hosting the morning show. Greg’s mocking saw him write: “Due to an error in the information received, I had decided to not do the breakfast show, which I always have loved. Happily the radio show is now back on my itinerary and we look forward to being there when you need some fun in the morning! Hope to see you there.”

This was in reference to Neil’s statement, in which the artist said: “Due to an error in the information received, I had decided to not play the Glastonbury Festival, which I always have loved. Happily, the festival is now back on our itinerary and we look forward to playing. Hope to see you there.”

After a selection of images on Greg’s joke post, the radio presenter added: “Looking forward to management’s reaction to a Neil Young Glastonbury joke. I might have inadvertently ruined my first day back. Made me laugh though so that’s good at least.”

BBC Silent Witness viewers were left asking where two characters were as they spotted new faces in the latest series

As the first episode of Silent Witness’ 28th series aired on Monday night, viewers were quick to voice a common observation.

The episode saw Dr. Nikki Alexander (portrayed by Emilia Fox) and Jack Hodgson (David Caves) welcome two fresh faces to their ranks – Maggie Steed and Francesca Mills.

In this latest series, Maggie Steed steps into the shoes of Harriet Maven, the new Head of The Lyell Centre, while Francesca Mills brings to life Kit Brooks, a Crime Analyst who collaborates with Jack.

The blurb for the opening episode reveals: “Part one of two. The body of an elderly woman is found in a cave, her fingerprints burnt off and a bunch of foxgloves by her side that she didn’t pick herself.

“The mystery deepens when it emerges that she passed away three months prior to her body being found. Jack is uneasy about the arrival of their new boss, Professor Harriet Maven (Maggie Steed),” reports the Express.

However, no sooner had the new series kicked off than fans took to social media to air their views, with many noticing a couple of familiar faces missing from the enduring drama.

Viewers were quick to query the whereabouts of Velvy (Alastair Michael) and Gabriel (Aki Omoshaybi).

One fan posted on X: “No Velvey or Gabriel? Not a good start.”

One viewer tweeted, “Subtle way of telling us Velvy’s b****red off then #SilentWitness,” while another chimed in with, “So that explains why Gabriel and Velvy have left. I had thought Gabriel would be to do with the university and I’m so pleased for Velvy. Jack has been a good mentor and inspiration to him.”

Another fan lamented the loss of a character’s charm: “And just as I was warming to Velvey’s infectious smile, they’ve binned him off. #silentwitness.”

Curiosity is brewing among the audience, with one person asking, “Will Velvy and Gabriel be returning to this series? #SilentWitness,”.

The absence of beloved characters has not gone unnoticed, as one disappointed fan posted, “No Gabriel, Velvy or Cara is disappointing #silentwitness.” (sic).

Anticipation builds for the next instalment, with the synopsis teasing viewers: “As Benjamin continues his search for Gloria, Nikki makes a disturbing discovery that brings them closer to the truth.

“The plot thickens with the introduction of a fresh face at the Lyell, while Lauren and Gary find themselves entangled in an unexpected scam.”

Silent Witness returns on Tuesday at 9pm on BBC One.

Actor Colson Smith is the latest to go under new boss Kate Brooks, who warned last month there were some big exits coming this year

Coronation Street’s Colson Smith will be axed from the soap this summer, after 14 years as Craig Tinker.

One insider said the actor, 26, was told that his police officer character’s time in Weatherfield was ending, several months ago.

The source revealed: “Colson was told last autumn about Craig being written out of the show, he will be on screen until early summer. He is hugely grateful to have had 14 years working on the show and is excited about what promises to be a brilliant exit storyline. He is very positive about what the future holds for the next part of his career.”

Colson confirmed to the Mirror that he has been aware of his character’s departure for a while. “Autumn last year I was told that Craig Tinker’s time on the Cobbles is to come to an end in 2025. I’ve LOVED every single second of my 14 year stay as a resident on the greatest street in the world.”

The actor, who lost a staggering 10 stone during and after lockdown, insisted he felt nothing but positive about the future. “I feel incredibly lucky to have grown up in, on and around Coronation Street,” he said. “I’ve learnt pretty much everything about life from the people who call it home. I’m excited to play out the exit story for Our Craigy.

“For me, this is the end of the beginning. I genuinely can’t wait to see what chapter two has in store for me.” And showing he has no bitterness towards the soap’s new boss Kate Brooks, he added: “Long live the cobbles!”

Brooks told last month that she was going to be wielding the axe during 2025, saying: “There are a few exits this year, and some unexpected ones that will send shockwaves.”

Colson was just 11 when he joined the show and long struggled with unhealthy eating habits and weight gain. He told the Mirror in 2021 that moving to Manchester aged 17 had made things worse, explaining: “When everyone else was at uni, I’m sat on bloody Deliveroo every night. So I kind of had got myself into a really unhealthy position where food was a self-harm to me. It was my comfort and I didn’t realise how much damage I was doing to myself with it.”

But having decided to get healthy, he shared his weight loss journey in a YouTube film entitled Bored of Being the Fat Kid which told how he’d used a life coach to help him go from being 22 stone to around 12.

Colson took part in ITV reality show Celebrity Big Brother last spring and also appeared on ITV’s jungle spin-off show I’m a Celebrity: Unpacked at the end of the year.

The actor is the latest of many to leave the soap in recent months. Craig’s on-screen mum, Beth Tinker, left the show in the summer when actress Lisa George was written out. Christmas saw the departure of Helen Worth, who decided to quit the cobbles after 50 years of playing Gail Platt.

And this weekend it emerged that Sue Cleaver, who has played Eileen Grimshaw for the past 25 years, is also on her way out.

Paddy McGuinness has replaced Gregg Wallace as a co-host on Inside the Factory, with him having worked alongside the likes of Cherry Healey on the BBC show’s new series

Presenter Paddy McGuinness has addressed speculation over romance rumours with his colleague Cherry Healey after having worked together on a show.

It was announced in the summer of 2023 that Paddy, now 51, would replace Gregg Wallace on Inside the Factory. He’s since filmed the new series alongside co-host Cherry, 44, who has been on the BBC show since it launched in 2015.

Paddy made his debut in a Christmas special that aired last month, ahead of the ninth series launching on Tuesday. He reminded of the show’s return later this week in a message to his followers on Instagram over the weekend.

The post included several photos of Paddy and co-star Cherry – who present Inside the Factory alongside historian Ruth Goodman – together. The pair were seen beside each other in selfies, as well as in a photo of them at a restaurant.

Alongside the photos, Paddy wrote about his colleagues in the accompanying caption of the post. He told his followers last week: “The whole crew on Inside The Factory have been a joy to work with. A small but perfectly formed team.”

He continued: “Also I’d never met @cherryhealey before but we hit it off straight away. Absolutely love working with her, she’s an absolute diamond!” Paddy concluded: “The new series starts Tuesday 7th on BBC1 & @bbciplayer.”

The post was met with speculation about a potential romance between the colleagues. One person reacted: “Is this a soft launch of the new Mrs?” Another asked: “Ooh I’m liking this. New lady, Paddy? You look cute together.”

Paddy however has since addressed the rumours, which he shut down when responding to a fan who asked: “Is this your new love? If so all the very best (you look very comfortable together).” Paddy replied: “Not at all. She’s just a great person.”

Former Top Gear presenter Paddy was once in a long-term relationship with Christine McGuinness. The pair, who share three children, announced the end of their 11-year marriage in a joint statement released back in July 2022.

They said at the time: “We’re moving forward as the best parents we can be for our three beautiful children. We’ll always be a loving family, we still have a great relationship and still live happily in our family home together.”

His colleague Cherry was once married to Rory Allen, with whom she shares her two children, but the former couple split up in 2016. She later began a relationship with Justin Mountstephens and they are thought to still be together, having celebrated her birthday together last month.

Loose Women’s Coleen Nolan opened up about what sparked panic in her recently-ended relationship with Michael Jones, following three years together

Loose Women star Coleen Nolan has not completely closed the door on finding love again after her recent split from Michael Jones. While she’s content with her single status at the moment, the 59-year-old is open to the idea of meeting someone new if it happens naturally.

Coleen and Michael, who connected on the dating app Tinder, ended their three-year relationship last year but have managed to stay friends. In previous discussions about their split, Coleen attributed it to her hectic schedule and changes in living arrangements.

In a new interview, she revealed that moving in full-time with Michael caused some anxiety about their relationship. When asked if it was strange to live alone again, she admitted: “If I’m honest, it was weird not living by myself.”

She added to Woman Magazine: “I think I found it more weird living full-time with someone. Maybe that’s what made me think, ‘Oh, I don’t know’.”

Coleen went on to express her desire to meet someone new, but not on a full-time basis, as she is currently enjoying independence and being “selfish”.

Besides her work, she keeps herself busy caring for 30 animals on her farm near Dilhorne, Staffordshire. The Loose Women star maintains amicable relationships with Michael as well as her other exes Shane Ritchie and Ray Fensome.

Coleen Nolan is newly single following her split from Michael Jones
Coleen was previously married to Shane Richie, from 1990 until their separation in 1999, and together they share two sons; Shane Nolan, 36, and Jake Roche, 32. With her second husband Ray, she has 24-year-old daughter Ciara.

Should another romance develop into a marriage in the future, the mother-of-three has a new rule in place following previous divorce chaos. While still with Michael, she discussed the idea of signing a prenup if they did tie the knot.

Speaking with her co-star Kaye Adams on her How To Be 60 podcast, Coleen confessed: “If it meant a lot to him, maybe I would, but I’d b****y make him sign a great big piece of paper before I did, because I’m not going through that again.

“I’ve looked into it. 100 per cent. It’s sorted from there and it’s a reference point; no-one thinks they’re going to split up. I’ve always been against prenups, because I find them really unromantic and very much like you’re going into it going: ‘Well, it probably won’t work, so sign this’.

“Hopefully it will work and we’ll never have to look at that piece of paper again, but what I went through on my last divorce I don’t ever want to go through again,” she added.
