Rumour is swirling that the current Miss Drag Wellington, Nikita van der Kamp, is suffering from rib injuries after a rough dance on stage with last year’s Miss Drag Wellington on Friday night.
Nikita was performing in a dance-off for Aaron and Andy.com‘s Party with Kylie album release event at the Garden Club when Rhubarb Rouge’s alter-ego, Ricky Beirao, lifted and dramatically threw around the pint-sized diva in an audience-pleasing impromptu routine. Nikita went on to win the competition.
But it appears the display was too much and Nikita was on Saturday suffering with bruised ribs. “She hasn’t gone to the doctor to have it checked out yet,” a friend says. “She’s pretty low-key and is just waiting to see how things go.”
This isn’t the first time Rhubarb has been involved with performance injury. Earlier in the year she caused an audience member to receive a fractured elbow after jumping on him while performing at Out in the Square.
