Michelle Visage live at The Festival

Dec 21, 2022, 06:00 AM

In the UK, Michelle Visage is perhaps best known in the UK for sitting alongside RuPaul as a judge on Drag Race - the format is a global hit and has turned Michelle in to a superstar. But her journey didn't start on Ru's catwalk, or in the Strictly ballroom...

Michelle Visage is a radio lover through and through. And to celebrate the final Radio Academy podcast of 2022, Christian picks his favourite bit of Academy content of the year. 

So we're handing the mic over to Stephanie Hirst at the Radio Academy Festival, to get an insight in to Michelle's journey through the world of radio. It includes why she waved goodbye to breakfast radio stateside, why she loves UK radio and finding a new home on BBC Radio 2.
