Ru Paul’s Drag Race star Michelle Visage is set to guest host ITV’s Lorraine for the first time this summer. Regular presenter, Lorraine Kelly, often takes a break from the weekday series during school holidays, leaving her spot open for guest hosts.
The broadcaster has confirmed that Michelle, 55, will be stepping in. The Strictly Come Dancing alumni, who was paired with professional dancer Giovanni Pernice on the show in 2019, is expected to “keep it interesting.”
Insiders claim Michelle is a “perfect fit” for the role, joining other regular stand-ins like Christine Lampard and Good Morning Britain’s Ranvir Singh.

A source told The Mirror: ” ITV has lined up Michelle Visage as a part-time host for its morning chat show Lorraine. She will be hosting the show during a one-off summertime special. She joins the show in a bid to keep it interesting over the summer months.”
They added: “Michelle is thrilled to have been given this opportunity. She’s a natural presenter and a huge fan of the show so it’s a perfect fit. ITV think she will be a huge hit with fans.”
Michelle previously appeared on Lorraine in 2019 when she revealed she was overlooked for Strictly’s live tour, and went into the Celebrity Big Brother House. She first gained recognition as a member of the dance-pop girl group Seduction, who charted five singles on the Billboard Hot 100 between 1989 and 1990.
