COURTNEY Act has gone from having the worst wardrobe malfunction in history to becoming the frontrunner for winning UK’s Celebrity Big Brother.

Just days after drag sensation Act, aka Shane Jenek, made international headlines after her losing her skirt and revealing all to a live studio audience when entering the house, Act has become a firm favourite with fans.

And it’s not just because of how she handled the faux pas.

Once inside, Act has seized the chance to educate her housemates, and the world, on issues regarding gender fluidity and sexuality.

“I love how Courtney listens to the other person’s opinion, asks questions calmly and nicely and it doesn’t turn into a screaming match. Watch this people, this is how interaction should be,” a fan wrote on Twitter.

To celebrate 100 years of women getting the vote in the UK, the show kicked off with an all-female cast before introducing Act. Despite Aussie audiences tiring of the franchise, it’s still popular in the UK and Act’s appearance may catapult the drag queen to greater heights overseas.
