Katie Price's live show thrown into chaos as bosses scramble to fill seats and give away tickets for FREE
KATIE Price's guest appearance at a drag show has been thrown into chaos with bosses scrambling to fill seats by giving away tickets for FREE.
The 46-year-old is set to appear at The Clapham Grand in London tonight as she joins RuPaul 's Drag race star Anetra.
However, tickets are being offered up for next to nothing ahead of the event - with buyers only asked to pay the £5 booking fee on Central Tickets.
The original seat price is £33.25, with organisers promising: "Get ready for mind blowing performances, gag worthy lipsyncs and alot more surprises that you will not want to miss."
Anetra has been joined on her solo tour by Drag Race UK's Michael Marouli, Paige Three, Dosa Cat, Tailor Maid-Colby and Flesh & Bones.
Meanwhile Katie is primed to join the cast for one night only, as Anetra told fans: "If all that charisma, uniqueness, nerve and talent wasn't enough for you, for one night only the ultimate diva Katie Price will be joining as Anetra's incredibly glamorous co-host."
Twice-bankrupt Katie has barely been off stage of late, having starred as a fairy in the Pinocchio pantomime starring 90s TV legend Bobby Davro.
Similarly to tonight's drag show, the venue decided to cut prices for the Easter panto, with theatre-goers offered a second ticket half price for every one bought.
Katie is no stranger to being centre staged, having starred in countless TV shows over the years.
She also performed in Cinderella over Christmas alongside her friend Kerry Katona, but was criticised for "not knowing" the choreography to her routine.
The Sun previously exclusively reported how the glamour model was being paid a five-figure salary for her role as a wicked step sister.
Telling fans about her show tonight with a link to "last chance tickets", Katie said: "See you all tonight."

Corrie legend died penniless and on benefits after two decades on soap
Peter Adamson rose to fame over the years, but was particularly known for his role as Len Fairclough in Coronation Stree, and was on benefits at the time of his death A Coronation Street actor died penniless on benefits after two decades on ITV soap, it has been reported. Peter Adamson died at the age of 72 in 2002 at his home in Bury. He was known for playing the role of Len Fairclough in the iconic show. It has been said that he was a "virtual recluse" in the last few years of his life as a result of his acting career coming to an end in the 1980s. Peter starred in a huge 1,730 episodes of Coronation Street during his 22-year stint, which took place from 1961 until 1983. This was his last acting job as he was then accused of indecently assaulting two eight-year-old girls at Haslingden Baths, where he worked as a swimming instructor the same year. He was acquitted of the charges at Burnley Crown Court. While drunk, he was allegedly persuaded to change his story and is alleged to have said in an interview: "I am totally guilty of everything the police said... But what I hope you will print – there was no sexual intent." He was paid £110,000 for the interview. But Lincolnshire Police later re-interviewed Adamson, who denied the confession. The reporter in question said he had "mislaid" the interview tapes, and the police took no further action. He was immediately sacked by ITV bosses and written out of the soap. The actor left to start a new life in Canada to start a new life but soon came back to the UK and was declared bankrupt in 1991. Upon his return, he had to live in a rented flat and relied on benefits as he was unable to find work. While he was on Corrie, he was paid £10,000 a year, which is around £190,000 in today's money. Peter was still receiving benefits when he died, but he had financial issues more than once in his life. It was said that the actor heavily drank while he worked and owed thousands to Inland Revenue by the late 1960s. He was then suspended from Coronation Street in 1969 due to his drinking. The legal bill from his trial showed the financial issues he went through in his life. Things got even worse for the actor after the trial, as his wife Jean died shortly after. Peter managed to add some final acting roles to his list, which included radio work and a West End production of Dial M for Murder. He also had a stint in Vanburgh's The Relapse in 1988. The star left behind two sons when he passed away in 2002.

Taking to X, formerly known as Twitter, one frustrated punter wrote: "Had 3 tickets in basket and then couldn't finish purchase and when tried to get back in everything almost gone. Guess I won't be spending my bday celebration at the Lowry.' Another added: "Peter Kay crashing the internet again!" A third complained that it took him almost two hours to try and buy tickets. One lucky customer added: "Pretty chuffed to have gotten front row accessible tickets for this today before the ticket website fell over for a good while!" Peter has now re-shared an apology from The Lowry on his Instagram account. The message read: "We are aware of the issues this morning regarding booking tickets. "Please bear with us while we try to rectify the problem. "We apologise for any inconvenience caused."

Peter and BBC Radio 2 DJ Sara will be taking to the stage on September 14 at both 2.30pm and 7.30pm. A blurb on The Lowry's website reads: "In these unique and heartwarming shows, the two proud Boltonians will sit down to reflect on Peter Kay's remarkable life and career, including the release of his much-anticipated new memoir, 'Peter Kay's Diary', due later this year. "As part of the conversation, they'll also share and discuss the songs that have shaped Peter's journey – from growing up in Bolton to becoming one of the UK's most beloved entertainers." All profits from Peter and Sara's show will go to Bolton Hospice and Crescent Food Bank Bolton. The performances will also be recorded, to air on television at a later date. Peter has been touring with his Peter Kay Live: Better Late Than Never tour since returning to the stage in 2022. On Saturday night, he took to the Manchester AO Arena and will now be taking a break until July 25. His tour will then run again until early November. During his shows, Peter has endured several encounters with rowdy audience members. In March, he halted his set and threatened to set security on hecklers at London's O2 Arena. Weeks earlier, Peter had a fan kicked out after he repeatedly disrupted the show by shouting out the comedian's catchphrase "garlic bread". He also sparked controversy after comparing one heckler to actress Lisa Riley. Peter later treated Lisa, who plays Debbie Dingle in Emmerdale, to VIP tickets to one of his shows in the wake of the remark. 5 BBC Radio 2 DJ Sara will be interviewing Peter about his life and career Credit: PA
