Don't get me wrong, I liked him at times but not at others, and at times I think he over did the part, but if he wanted to be accepted for himself and not 'tits and arse' as he so put it...which I though was a bit of a put down to women ... why did he enter the house in drag?

Because the tits weren't titting

That is act and what everyone knows him for so I guess he felt he had to go in like that.

Maybe because it's what he is known for the most so wanted to enter as danny the drag artist and leave the house as danny beard once people got to know him. However I knew him more as danny beard anyway as him being a panelist on late and live. Think he wanted the journey. However I thought he would be proud of being a drag queen

I get that, but it seems like he is a bit fed up of drag, not that I could blame him, must be a chore getting into character.....AJs face when he said I want your job

ah yeah that is a good point, I suppose you get to a point where you literally do not want to be getting into character, I hope this is a springboard for him as I think he would be a good games show host maybe

I think he’s just over the current “trend” of being asked into things as the token drag queen. He said he turned down master chef for that reason.

Nothing wrong with his personality.

Danny sees Drag as his job not his personality and that's what he wanted to show, Danny Beard and Plain Danny are 2 different people

He would actually be a really good host

[AnnieK]

He would be a great host...he genuinely seems interested in people and their lives

Absolutely, Danny on L&L and just AJ hosting the main show like Emma and Rylan

No Aj can go

…obviously that’s a question that would be for Danny to answer …(…my thoughts, though…)…it’s a celebrity house and Drag Queen Danny Beard is his celebrity, being a drag queen and winning drag race UK gave him the celebrity that he was asked to join the cast for so that’s how he entered …but it isn’t him/it’s an act…no different to many other celebrities when they’re themselves inside the house…not their celebrity act…

Not likely he’s been around for years and is already well known since winning Drag Race

5% is still well known. Plus he’s been on late and live so on BB he’ll be well known from those viewers.

Thinking about it he went in as his Drag Queen Persona but came out as Danny so maybe that was the result he wanted...I did get the impression he was pretty tired of Drag, understandable it must take hours to create the look

Yeah. He’s brilliant at drag to be fair (not sure if you watch Drag Race, but he was amazing in it). But I feel like he wants people to see the real him and that he’s more than just a drag act, he so much more. He did himself justice in BB.
