The 36-year-old pop sensation and the 69-year-old fashion icon have both been confirmed as guest judges for the BBC Three show, and Cheryl has heaped praise on the "inspiring" programme.

She said: "I am a huge fan of 'Drag Race'. I have always admired the work and dedication that goes into drag and have learned over the years that it is an art form.

"It is not only fun and glamorous but equally as skillful and admirable, I find it incredibly inspiring. I just love the makeup, creativity and the drama. I am honoured to be a guest judge!"

British icon Twiggy - whose real name is Lesley Lawson - loves the "creativity" of the programme and feels she'll have "brilliant fun" on the show.

She said: "You see the most gorgeous women in the most glamorous outfits. I love the creativity of the clothes and the makeup. I have been to a few drag shows and they're brilliant fun."

The pair join previously announced judges, Spice Girl Geri Horner, Little Mix's Jade Thirlwall 'Game of Thrones' star Maisie Williams, 'Amazing Spider-Man' actor Andrew Garfield and 'Chewing Gum' star Michaela Coel.

Comedian Alan Carr and chat show host Graham Norton will both make regular appearances as rotating judges.

'Black Magic' singer Jade - who is a huge fan of the US version of the show - previously admitted she wishes she could have been a queen herself.

She added: "I love absolutely everything about drag. I love that it's art. I love how fabulous it is, how fun it is, I love that you can transform your body into a fantastic beautiful woman ... the whole thing! I just wish in my next life I can be a drag queen."
