Rumors are flying that the talented trio known as DWV - Detox Icunt, Willam Belli, and Vicky Vox - are breaking up their drag supergroup. Anyone who follows these queens on social media probably noticed some squabbling amongst the girls, which has led many to believe that the end of the powerful supergroup might be in sight.
At this point, no public statement has been made about the queens officially breaking up their group, and DWV still has an active touring schedule for the rest of Pride season.
Things really started to get noticed (and thereafter hyper-analyzed by fans across the world) when Detox made this post to Facebook a few days ago:

Post by Detox Icunt.
Though vague, the post sparked immense intrigue, excitement, and panic amongst fans. Redditors began a long and intense discussion on the topic, compiling evidence, and drawing conclusions about the group's fate. Some began revealing "reasons" for the break-up (with varying degrees of vagueness and credibility to them), but others pointed out that the true evidence would lie with an open statement about the end of DWV's group career.
It would seem that Willam has done just that, and thrown his two cents into a Reddit conversation. While he does acknowledge and publicly point out that they are having their fair share of arguments, he also points out that (spoiler alert!) not everything you read on Reddit is true. With his standardly snarky response of "Some of you should be fan fiction writers," he makes it clear that not every rumor being posted is grounded in fact.

Willam later provided a proper explanation for their current lack of activity as "DWV" in a Q&A response on Tumblr:
While Vicky doesn't appear to be involved in the squabble between Detox and Willam, she has also taken to social media to answer fan questions:
@Frankistarr it was fun for a while. We are finishing our gigs and I'm going on my way.
— VICKY VOX (@TheVickyVox) June 13, 2014 When pressed for more details about the alleged break-up, she wouldn't budge:
@Frankistarr I can say but it would be academic. Idk. Idk. That would be fun
— VICKY VOX (@TheVickyVox) June 13, 2014 The idea that Vicky might be gearing up for some sort of "competition" is still on many fans' minds. As one Redditor theorized, the vagueness of the conversations surrounding this could lend the drama to be something else entirely:
Although Vicky has stated that she won't be competing on Drag Race Season 7, we've seen stranger things from RuPaul and Drag Race producers. You can't ever say 100%.
Despite the clear tension that is happening between these 3 queens, there has yet to be a confirmation that this is the clear end for DWV. Throughout the controversy, Detox has continued to promote their group events and accomplishments, such as their cover of Pride Guide magazine, and they've all three reassured fans that they're not going to be canceling any previously scheduled gigs as a trio. Vicky even pointed out that only time will tell what the true future of DWV is going to be:
@Frankistarr time will tell, my love!
— VICKY VOX (@TheVickyVox) June 13, 2014 We can only hope that there's more to come from these 3 ultra-talented queens, but we know that whatever their future holds, they will all continue to work it out - together or apart!
So, what do you think? Is this the beginning of the end?
