Statue to Honor The Vivienne in Liverpool | Liverpool News
Description
A life-size statue honoring the legendary drag icon The Vivienne is set to rise in Liverpool’s Pride Quarter, celebrating her transformative impact and legacy. Winner of RuPaul’s Drag Race UK, James Lee Williams—known as The Vivienne—passed away at 32, but his influence endures through this powerful tribute. Her sister Chanel, leading House of The Vivienne CIC, says the statue will inspire hope and continue his mission of acceptance. From North Wales to global fame, The Vivienne made Liverpool her home and became a beacon for LGBTQ+ pride. With funding secured and a public campaign underway, the statue will stand at Victoria and Stanley Streets—a symbol of community, resilience, and the vibrant culture she helped define.
