Pillay was born near the docks of Grimsby and was the youngest of six children; her mother was a cleaner of Bajan descent, while her father was an engineer on the fishing trawlers, and was of Indian descent.
Pillay left school at fifteen and went to Manchester, where she befriended the Northern drag performers Bunny Lewis and Frank "Foo Foo" Lammar.

While living in Notting Hill, west London, Pillay met Keith Allen, who invited Pillay to appear on the first programme aimed at a youth audience on the recently launched Channel 4 network.
