Churchill was angry after being reported for inappropriate relationships with boys under 16.

He told one of his passengers, "Now watch this," as he accelerated towards Nikita Price, 22, and her lesbian partner Luci Gregory, 20.

Both women were left trapped under the wheels of his Renault Megane.

The skin from Nikita's left leg was "de-gloved" and a large tattoo on her calf was completely stripped off.

Luci suffered a broken back and double leg fracture leaving her with a permanent limp.

Churchill performed at the Studio Bar in Merthyr Tydfil, South Wales – a favourite haunt of Lost Prophets singer Ian Watkins, who was jailed for 35 years for child sex offences including the attempted rape of a baby.

Merthyr Tydfil Crown Court heard Churchill was twice over the drink drive limit when he targeted the women on April 17.

Prosecutor Matthew Roberts said: "Nikita remembers the car coming at them really fast - she blacked out and came around unable to feel her leg.

"Luci's foot was in her face and she could tell from her screams she was in a significant amount of pain.

"Both women suffered life changing injuries - Nikita's calf was torn off the bone."

Churchill smiled in the dock at Merthyr Tydfil Crown Court as photographs of the women's horrific injuries were shown to the court.

Luci said: "I have nightmares that I'm still stuck under the car.

"I can't work full time and I'm being treated for Post Traumatic Stress Disorder."

Nikita's victim impact statement said: "The doctors managed to save my leg but I am in extreme pain every day.

"It may be years of operations and physiotherapy before I can walk again properly."

Churchill, of Merthyr Tydfil, described himself as a "Queen of Karaoke" at his drag shows across South Wales.

He was jailed for nine years and four months after admitting two charges of grievous bodily harm, dangerous driving and drink driving.

He was jailed for a further year after being found guilty of a abducting a 15-year-old boy.

Judge Michael Burr told him: "You drove your car fast at the two young women.

"You intended to harm them seriously.

"Cars can be used as a deadly weapon - that was your intention."
