Drag queen Fatt Butcher has been hailed as a “British icon” after they were seen sniffing poppers live on a Channel 4 Pride special. 

The truly amazing moment happened during British comedian Joe Lycett’s Big Pride Party, which aired on Channel 4 on Sunday (3 July). Lycett marked the 50th anniversary of Pride in the UK with a festive two-hour long celebration in his hometown of Birmingham. 

Some observant viewers caught Fatt Butcher not-so-sneekily inhaling from a small bottle of poppers as they stood in the background behind Lycett. Of course, social media absolutely raved about the truly hilarious moment, and one person even hailed Fatt Butcher as a “BRITISH ICON”.
