Nevena and Macca are joined by Lydia Jupp from the Star Observer as they discuss footage of fracking sites in background of RuPaul’s DJ sets this week, reignites criticism of drag star’s environmental practices.

Uploaded to TikTok, the video shows Ru DJing at Montreal’s Parc Jean-Drapeau on Saturday, with footage of what appears to be an oil-exploration site as his set’s background.
