Blu Hydrangea (born 15 February 1996) is the stage name of Joshua Cargill, a Northern Irish drag queen from Belfast who is known for competing on the first series of RuPaul's Drag Race UK in 2019 and later winning the first series of RuPaul's Drag Race: UK vs. the World in 2022.

Career

Blu Hydrangea was announced as part of the cast of the first series of RuPaul's Drag Race UK on 21 September 2019 and subsequently finished in fifth place on the series, losing the lip sync to fellow contestant Cheryl Hole.

Outside of Drag Race, Blu Hydrangea is a well-known make-up queen and a part of a group called the Frock Destroyers (with Baga Chipz and Divina de Campo). They also host the BBC web series Strictly Frocked Up, a weekly web series where they and another drag queen watch and review each episode of Strictly Come Dancing.

In January 2022, they were announced as one of the nine contestants on the first series of RuPaul's Drag Race: UK vs. the World.[2] On 8 March 2022, Blu Hydrangea was announced as the winner of the series, becoming the first Northern Irish queen to win across the franchise.[3] In December 2023, they were announced as competing on the seventh season of the Irish version of Dancing with the Stars, premiering in January 2024, where they finished as runner-up.[4]

Personal life

Cargill grew up in Royal Hillsborough but later moved to live in Belfast.[5][6] [7] He has dated Johnson Orr since 2014.[8]
