'Biological male' stripped of strongest woman title was 'arrogant and talking s***' to rivals'

The disqualification came after fellow competitors received explicit material that allegedly revealed Booker's transgender status.

Competitors who participated in the Texas event have spoken out about Booker's conduct during the championship.

They described encountering dismissive and boastful behaviour throughout the competition.

The controversy has thrust the athlete into public scrutiny, with questions arising about eligibility requirements in women's strength sports.

The Official Strongman Games has since clarified its position on competitor eligibility based on biological sex.

Hailey Sikman and Jade Dickens, who competed at the Texas event, have revealed their encounters with Booker to the Daily Mail during the championship.

Both athletes maintained that participants were unaware of Booker's gender identity throughout the competition.

"I was beyond mad," Dickens told Fox News Digital. "Had I known, I definitely would have done something about it, personally would have done something about it prior to the event being over. But nobody knew. Nobody knew he was a man."

Sikman attempted a conversation with Booker but found her unresponsive. "I tried to talk to him, and he kind of just blew me off," she said. "A lot of other women were saying he was just being arrogant and talking s***."

Dickens said: "I didn't personally speak to him. He was actually pretty quiet. In my opinion, the reason he didn't talk much was because his voice would have revealed he was male."

The Official Strongman Games issued a statement on Tuesday confirming the disqualification.

Following the disqualification, Britain's Andrea Thompson, 43, who finished second in the competition, has been elevated to champion status.

The decision marks a significant moment for the sport's governance regarding transgender participation.

Both athletes maintained that Booker "definitely conned himself in and manipulated a situation" to compete in the women's division.

An explicit image has surfaced on social media depicting Booker in a provocative pose, wearing red lipstick while grabbing their chest and extending their tongue.

This photograph is among the material that allegedly contributed to the disqualification decision, according to the Mail.

According to the Internet Adult Film Database, Jammie Jay received nominations for the Trans Erotica Awards Show in 2020 and 2022.

The database lists several explicit film titles featuring this performer.
