Last month, Britney Spears impersonator and season eight star Derrick Barry said she felt she was living in Trinity’s “nightmare” when the pair worked together during the Las Vegas-based show, RuPaul’s Drag Race LIVE in 2022.

At one point during the show's run, Barry worked alongside Trinity K. Bonet and according to the Britney Spears impersonator, it wasn't the best vibe behind the scenes.
"She wanted to do Beyoncé. She didn't get to for music clearance rights or I'm not really sure, so she did Whitney. I think that she just wasn't happy. I was so excited to work with her and it just wasn't what she thought it was going to be. I feel like sometimes I was living in her nightmare. I wish her nothing but success," Barry tells PRIDE.
The interview started making rounds on social media and Bonet is now firing back and sharing her side of the story.
In a recent post on Instagram, the All Stars 6 contestant is opening up on just how hard it was for her to perform in Sin City.
"I was told they would not pay for the rights to the music. I was in excruciating pain every night from severe arthritis in both [my] legs. I had to quit because I [couldn't] finish the show."
She even reveals that she was initially going to compete in Canada's Drag Race: Canada vs. the World, but had to drop out due to her body aches.
"I know what type of person I am and I know where my heart is. Videos like this are the very reason I want no [part] of this s*** anymore. I guess I should just be grateful they even gave me a job."
Hopefully, these queens can hash out their differences and remember love always wins.
