5
00:00:09,489 --> 00:00:12,291
It's a gender neutral religious tongue
6
00:00:12,291 --> 00:00:13,791
that bridges gaps,
7
00:00:15,091 --> 00:00:19,721
eliminates political divides,
overcomes racial barriers.
8
00:00:19,721 --> 00:00:21,421
It feeds our spirits,
9
00:00:21,421 --> 00:00:26,088
bringing people from all
walks of life together as one.
10
00:00:31,789 --> 00:00:33,144
- I don't know how people
11
00:00:33,144 --> 00:00:35,155
find their way onto the dance floor,
12
00:00:35,155 --> 00:00:37,390
everyone has an individual journey,
13
00:00:37,390 --> 00:00:38,872
everyone has a story to tell.
14
00:00:38,872 --> 00:00:42,039
(uptempo synth music)
15
00:00:47,285 --> 00:00:50,396
- Dance has no color,
dance has no barriers,
16
00:00:50,396 --> 00:00:52,856
it didn't matter who
you were, what you were,
17
00:00:52,856 --> 00:00:55,856
there was always a sense of freedom.
18
00:00:57,423 --> 00:00:59,417
- And what they decide to put on stage
19
00:00:59,417 --> 00:01:02,458
in front of an audience
is their self expression.
20
00:01:02,458 --> 00:01:04,869
This is me, I wanna tell this story,
21
00:01:04,869 --> 00:01:06,568
I wanna dance this dance.
22
00:01:06,568 --> 00:01:10,038
♪ I'm not defeated, empty
words leave me cheated ♪
23
00:01:10,038 --> 00:01:13,895
♪ I'm not defeated, empty
words leave me cheated ♪
24
00:01:13,895 --> 00:01:15,532
- Dance floors can unify people
25
00:01:15,532 --> 00:01:17,550
in ways that governments
and religions can't
26
00:01:17,550 --> 00:01:20,467
and I stand by that shit 100%.
27
00:01:22,843 --> 00:01:23,881
- When everyone is dripping in sweat
28
00:01:23,881 --> 00:01:25,903
there's no class distinctions,
29
00:01:25,903 --> 00:01:27,764
there's no economic distinctions,
30
00:01:27,764 --> 00:01:31,764
you get in a room and
none of it matters at all.
31
00:01:33,645 --> 00:01:35,644
- When the clubs opened,
32
00:01:35,644 --> 00:01:37,791
you saw the look on people's faces,
33
00:01:37,791 --> 00:01:41,961
the smiles, the energy
that people gave off,
34
00:01:41,961 --> 00:01:44,740
you were all there to dance.
35
00:01:44,740 --> 00:01:47,967
- There's no right or
wrong on the dance floor,
36
00:01:47,967 --> 00:01:51,800
music moves people and
allows them to be free.
37
00:01:55,569 --> 00:01:57,742
- People being the stars
of the dance floor,
38
00:01:57,742 --> 00:01:59,583
people wanting to lose themselves,
39
00:01:59,583 --> 00:02:01,597
people that are on the dance floor
40
00:02:01,597 --> 00:02:03,531
are what make great clubs.
41
00:02:03,531 --> 00:02:08,372
♪ I'm not defeated but
you can see the bruise ♪
42
00:02:08,372 --> 00:02:12,997
♪ Battered not beaten, still
there's so much to prove ♪
43
00:02:12,997 --> 00:02:16,914
- You know, the only
reason why I'm still alive
44
00:02:18,778 --> 00:02:21,635
is because I found life
on the dance floor,
45
00:02:21,635 --> 00:02:24,863
I found friends on the dance floor,
46
00:02:24,863 --> 00:02:26,196
I found support,
47
00:02:28,211 --> 00:02:32,794
I found love, unconditional
chosen family kind of love.
48
00:02:34,389 --> 00:02:38,056
When the people who are
supposed to love you
49
00:02:40,293 --> 00:02:44,710
don't have the capacity to
understand how to do that,
50
00:02:45,730 --> 00:02:49,937
I found a lot of those
folks on the dance floor.
51
00:02:49,937 --> 00:02:54,104
(singing in a different language)
52
00:02:55,537 --> 00:02:58,130
- We are a community of people
53
00:02:58,130 --> 00:02:59,806
from all different walks of life
54
00:02:59,806 --> 00:03:01,084
with all different backgrounds,
55
00:03:01,084 --> 00:03:05,567
all different body shapes,
sizes, genders, ethnicities,
56
00:03:05,567 --> 00:03:10,308
we're a complete mismatch, but
we share this common ground
57
00:03:10,308 --> 00:03:12,261
of wanting to amplify
58
00:03:12,261 --> 00:03:15,517
those really positive
parts of what people have
59
00:03:15,517 --> 00:03:16,934
and what we have.
60
00:03:18,896 --> 00:03:20,901
- The performers at Glitterbox,
61
00:03:20,901 --> 00:03:23,699
they stamp their personality on the night
62
00:03:23,699 --> 00:03:25,766
from the moment we open the doors,
63
00:03:25,766 --> 00:03:28,487
they make a huge effort in
their dress and their makeup,
64
00:03:28,487 --> 00:03:32,168
they look absolutely
spectacular, magnificent.
65
00:03:32,168 --> 00:03:35,251
You're like, wow, who is that person?
66
00:03:37,180 --> 00:03:38,710
- There's more behind everyone
67
00:03:38,710 --> 00:03:41,088
than just fabulous dance moves,
68
00:03:41,088 --> 00:03:43,766
all of us have had to really fight
69
00:03:43,766 --> 00:03:46,266
for our right to be ourselves.
70
00:04:00,055 --> 00:04:04,050
- It's just creating a safe
space that unifies everybody,
71
00:04:04,050 --> 00:04:06,969
it's gonna be no judgment,
we're safe to be who we are
72
00:04:06,969 --> 00:04:07,802
and, at the end of the day,
73
00:04:07,802 --> 00:04:10,719
we come together to celebrate love.
74
00:04:23,814 --> 00:04:28,064
- I feel like I've always
been quite quiet and shy,
75
00:04:32,158 --> 00:04:33,499
I guess I have always
76
00:04:33,499 --> 00:04:36,866
felt like I didn't
really fit in at school,
77
00:04:36,866 --> 00:04:38,858
I never really had any friends,
78
00:04:38,858 --> 00:04:41,876
I never felt like I
identified with people,
79
00:04:41,876 --> 00:04:44,901
and I found it hard to
socialize with people.
80
00:04:44,901 --> 00:04:48,493
I just remember it being really lonely
81
00:04:48,493 --> 00:04:51,984
and not having anyone
that I could relate to,
82
00:04:51,984 --> 00:04:55,979
or being told that what
I was doing was wrong,
83
00:04:55,979 --> 00:04:59,896
or trying to be who I
thought I was, was wrong.
84
00:05:02,979 --> 00:05:05,294
When I went to sixth form college,
85
00:05:05,294 --> 00:05:09,385
I made friends with
some of the girls there,
86
00:05:09,385 --> 00:05:10,668
guess, around that time
87
00:05:10,668 --> 00:05:13,835
I was figuring out my gender identity.
88
00:05:15,966 --> 00:05:18,190
Those friends that I had at sixth form
89
00:05:18,190 --> 00:05:21,357
were really important to process that.
90
00:05:23,192 --> 00:05:27,654
When I first started
going out in East London,
91
00:05:27,654 --> 00:05:30,851
people were dressing up and
there were loads of club kids
92
00:05:30,851 --> 00:05:33,117
and everyone was kind of wild and free,
93
00:05:33,117 --> 00:05:34,147
and it was the first time
94
00:05:34,147 --> 00:05:37,397
that I experienced nightlife like that.
95
00:05:38,966 --> 00:05:42,731
I was coming up to having my
gender reassignment surgery
96
00:05:42,731 --> 00:05:45,674
and I was very private about my past,
97
00:05:45,674 --> 00:05:48,641
and I didn't really
talk to people about it.
98
00:05:48,641 --> 00:05:51,606
And so when I started
going out to these places
99
00:05:51,606 --> 00:05:54,510
and meeting queer people
for the first time, really,
100
00:05:54,510 --> 00:05:57,739
I started to feel this sense of community,
101
00:05:57,739 --> 00:06:00,805
and it was only after a couple of years
102
00:06:00,805 --> 00:06:03,086
of making friends with these people
103
00:06:03,086 --> 00:06:06,336
that I started to open up about my past
104
00:06:08,036 --> 00:06:11,676
and just tell people about
my journey as a trans woman,
105
00:06:11,676 --> 00:06:15,759
which I kind of kept really
secret up until then.
106
00:06:17,780 --> 00:06:19,917
For something that had always been viewed
107
00:06:19,917 --> 00:06:22,867
in a really negative way by other people,
108
00:06:22,867 --> 00:06:24,882
for these new people that I met
109
00:06:24,882 --> 00:06:27,382
to see it as a positive thing,
110
00:06:28,411 --> 00:06:30,299
I almost felt celebrated.
111
00:06:30,299 --> 00:06:32,882
(upbeat music)
112
00:06:39,648 --> 00:06:40,982
When I'm on the dance floor,
113
00:06:40,982 --> 00:06:43,570
I feel this freedom to be myself
114
00:06:43,570 --> 00:06:46,433
and exist in the way that I want to be.
115
00:06:46,433 --> 00:06:48,152
I think that's why it's really important
116
00:06:48,152 --> 00:06:50,372
that we're trying to create these spaces
117
00:06:50,372 --> 00:06:54,788
where people do feel free
to express themselves
118
00:06:54,788 --> 00:06:56,371
on the dance floor.
119
00:07:07,810 --> 00:07:09,158
- My grandmum used to tell me,
120
00:07:09,158 --> 00:07:11,480
"Oh child, you've been left
in the oven a bit too long",
121
00:07:11,480 --> 00:07:12,874
she used to relax my hair,
122
00:07:12,874 --> 00:07:14,737
'cause my head was a
bit too kinky for her,
123
00:07:14,737 --> 00:07:16,864
press my nose so it'd be a little thinner.
124
00:07:16,864 --> 00:07:17,697
It's only now
125
00:07:17,697 --> 00:07:21,697
that I'm realizing what
I went through as a kid.
126
00:07:25,020 --> 00:07:26,213
So this is where I grew up,
127
00:07:26,213 --> 00:07:29,337
like when I was primary school,
128
00:07:29,337 --> 00:07:31,749
when everything happened when I was a kid,
129
00:07:31,749 --> 00:07:33,416
I was in this house.
130
00:07:34,714 --> 00:07:37,805
My family was a lot under the spotlight
131
00:07:37,805 --> 00:07:41,042
because my sister is an athlete,
132
00:07:41,042 --> 00:07:44,567
she's Olympic winner,
she's worldly famous,
133
00:07:44,567 --> 00:07:47,895
she's known in the fencing
world and in the sports world,
134
00:07:47,895 --> 00:07:49,488
she was on TV all the time,
135
00:07:49,488 --> 00:07:52,936
so our family was under the
spotlight for good reason,
136
00:07:52,936 --> 00:07:54,204
everyone was proud.
137
00:07:54,204 --> 00:07:57,972
So people were expecting me
to be doing fencing as well
138
00:07:57,972 --> 00:07:59,920
and this is when I discovered fashion,
139
00:07:59,920 --> 00:08:04,920
but I was getting so much
negativity from my surrounding,
140
00:08:05,049 --> 00:08:06,075
from the people around me,
141
00:08:06,075 --> 00:08:10,749
that I started harming
myself, doing bad stuff.
142
00:08:10,749 --> 00:08:14,307
I've been arrested, I was
stealing, I was fighting,
143
00:08:14,307 --> 00:08:17,268
I was literally going the wrong way.
144
00:08:17,268 --> 00:08:19,935
(subdued music)
145
00:08:22,780 --> 00:08:24,668
I just remember a lot
of things that I've done
146
00:08:24,668 --> 00:08:27,577
that I'm still struggling to say out loud,
147
00:08:27,577 --> 00:08:29,940
me trying to end my life as well
148
00:08:29,940 --> 00:08:34,190
and the best thing for me
was to just escape Paris.
149
00:08:39,782 --> 00:08:43,532
At the time I left Paris,
I was 24 years old.
150
00:08:45,066 --> 00:08:48,106
If you ask me, I don't even
remember how I moved there,
151
00:08:48,106 --> 00:08:53,023
all I know is I packed some
clothes and I moved to England.
152
00:08:57,301 --> 00:08:58,899
Luke was the first person,
153
00:08:58,899 --> 00:09:01,816
when I came to London, I spoke to.
154
00:09:03,418 --> 00:09:05,990
I messaged him, we started
talking, we became friends
155
00:09:05,990 --> 00:09:09,012
and literally just helped
me with makeup a lot.
156
00:09:09,012 --> 00:09:12,223
I wasn't really doing any
drag or anything like this,
157
00:09:12,223 --> 00:09:15,141
I remember I was just so impressed
158
00:09:15,141 --> 00:09:16,709
by everything Luke was doing
159
00:09:16,709 --> 00:09:19,481
and I've learned so much with Luke
160
00:09:19,481 --> 00:09:21,415
and, literally, we became friends since.
161
00:09:21,415 --> 00:09:23,144
You can check on the fridge,
162
00:09:23,144 --> 00:09:25,635
so that was the first night out with Luke
163
00:09:25,635 --> 00:09:27,065
when we went to Cirque,
164
00:09:27,065 --> 00:09:29,837
my first time, pretty
much, trying to do drag.
165
00:09:29,837 --> 00:09:33,004
(rhythmic percussion)
166
00:09:34,499 --> 00:09:37,623
When you start doing drag,
you question everything.
167
00:09:37,623 --> 00:09:40,334
Often men have this idea,
168
00:09:40,334 --> 00:09:43,672
men should act and a woman should act,
169
00:09:43,672 --> 00:09:47,296
but when you put yourself
in the shoes of a woman
170
00:09:47,296 --> 00:09:49,275
and when you look in the mirror
171
00:09:49,275 --> 00:09:53,737
and see someone that is
not who you used to be,
172
00:09:53,737 --> 00:09:56,667
everything just goes so fast in your head.
173
00:09:56,667 --> 00:09:59,917
(uptempo techno music)
174
00:10:11,917 --> 00:10:13,737
Because you don't recognize
yourself in the mirror,
175
00:10:13,737 --> 00:10:15,576
you allow yourself to feel things
176
00:10:15,576 --> 00:10:17,735
that you don't think
you are allowed to feel,
177
00:10:17,735 --> 00:10:19,848
because you're a either man or a woman,
178
00:10:19,848 --> 00:10:20,905
because society tells you
179
00:10:20,905 --> 00:10:24,655
that you should act this
way or act that way.
180
00:10:30,485 --> 00:10:33,120
When you're in drag, you don't
fit in any of those boxes,
181
00:10:33,120 --> 00:10:35,446
you have the freedom to do and think
182
00:10:35,446 --> 00:10:37,696
and feel whatever you want.

00:10:40,841 --> 00:10:42,832

♪ No no no no nobody's business ♪
188
00:11:04,180 --> 00:11:07,600
- In the beginning of
my sort of drag career,
189
00:11:07,600 --> 00:11:09,933
I released so many anxieties
190
00:11:11,711 --> 00:11:16,711
and there was times where I
cried on stage and I broke down,
191
00:11:16,763 --> 00:11:21,596
and I was silly and I was
funny, and I was honest and raw.
192
00:11:23,022 --> 00:11:26,992
And it was like taking
away all those things
193
00:11:26,992 --> 00:11:29,468
that society had placed upon me
194
00:11:29,468 --> 00:11:32,192
and chipping away at the past,
195
00:11:32,192 --> 00:11:35,359
to just become the best version of me.
196
00:11:37,288 --> 00:11:41,770
Come inside, I'll take you
through to my drag den.
197
00:11:41,770 --> 00:11:45,103
Here you go, welcome to my little world.
198
00:11:46,058 --> 00:11:47,798
I'm a very visual person
199
00:11:47,798 --> 00:11:51,122
and so I want to create more
things that bring people joy
200
00:11:51,122 --> 00:11:52,901
and bring me joy,
201
00:11:52,901 --> 00:11:56,058
I like to be surrounded
by colorful, happy things.
202
00:11:56,058 --> 00:11:58,099
This is kind of like drag,
203
00:11:58,099 --> 00:12:03,099
it's things I collected, it's
things that make me happy,
204
00:12:03,121 --> 00:12:08,121
it's things I use day to
day, but also in nightlife.
205
00:12:08,278 --> 00:12:12,068
I live in, basically, like a
Barbie dreamland of a bedroom
206
00:12:12,068 --> 00:12:14,496
and that's not what most
people's bedrooms look like,
207
00:12:14,496 --> 00:12:15,826
but I've made a conscious choice
208
00:12:15,826 --> 00:12:19,932
to surround myself with colorful
things that make me happy
209
00:12:19,932 --> 00:12:21,669
and make me feel fabulous.
210
00:12:21,669 --> 00:12:25,296
Storage is very difficult when
you have a lot of costumes
211
00:12:25,296 --> 00:12:28,022
that don't really make any sense.
212
00:12:28,022 --> 00:12:30,073
This is all Glitterbox stuff,
213
00:12:30,073 --> 00:12:33,906
an outfit I wore on "Lorraine Kelly".
214
00:12:33,906 --> 00:12:37,073
I'd say it's like 80% made by me.
215
00:12:37,927 --> 00:12:40,156
This is seven years of drag,
216
00:12:40,156 --> 00:12:43,906
this is seven years of
holding onto memories.
217
00:12:44,938 --> 00:12:47,660
So when I was a young child,
218
00:12:47,660 --> 00:12:51,022
I was constantly encouraged
to express myself
219
00:12:51,022 --> 00:12:54,218
but we moved around quite
a lot when I was a kid,
220
00:12:54,218 --> 00:12:56,461
we moved around the country.
221
00:12:56,461 --> 00:12:57,532
That meant that,
222
00:12:57,532 --> 00:13:01,120
quite often, I was put
into a different community
223
00:13:01,120 --> 00:13:03,272
where I had to adapt
224
00:13:03,272 --> 00:13:04,975
and you slowly realize
225
00:13:04,975 --> 00:13:07,808
that being too visible or too loud
226
00:13:10,411 --> 00:13:13,140
can sometimes be a hindrance.
227
00:13:13,140 --> 00:13:17,471
And so I kind of learnt,
in my early adolescence,
228
00:13:17,471 --> 00:13:20,388
to keep a lot of my feelings inside
229
00:13:21,826 --> 00:13:23,929
because people's reaction to them
230
00:13:23,929 --> 00:13:25,907
wasn't always positive.
231
00:13:25,907 --> 00:13:30,907
I came out when I was 15 and
I felt liberated in some ways
232
00:13:31,559 --> 00:13:35,074
but you're basically fighting
one battle to come out
233
00:13:35,074 --> 00:13:35,907
and then when you come out,
234
00:13:35,907 --> 00:13:38,204
you've gotta fight this other
battle to accept yourself.
235
00:13:38,204 --> 00:13:40,956
I started to reach out
to the gay community
236
00:13:40,956 --> 00:13:44,906
that existed in Cumbria,
which is very small,
237
00:13:44,906 --> 00:13:47,605
and a lot of the lesbians there
238
00:13:47,605 --> 00:13:49,533
all looked a very specific way,
239
00:13:49,533 --> 00:13:53,145
and I didn't really
connect with that at all
240
00:13:53,145 --> 00:13:56,820
and so I felt like I
didn't belong in that box.
241
00:13:56,820 --> 00:13:58,145
And it was like saying,
242
00:13:58,145 --> 00:13:59,201
okay, you've come out and you're gay,
243
00:13:59,201 --> 00:14:00,619
but then the gay community
244
00:14:00,619 --> 00:14:03,575
also doesn't really want you here.
245
00:14:03,575 --> 00:14:05,841
And yeah, it just felt like I was drowning
246
00:14:05,841 --> 00:14:07,758
and it got to the point
247
00:14:08,716 --> 00:14:11,825
where I tried to take my
own life several times,
248
00:14:11,825 --> 00:14:16,154
and my mom just said, "What
will make you happy?",
249
00:14:16,154 --> 00:14:19,904
and I just said, "I need
to get out of here."
250
00:14:24,120 --> 00:14:27,203
(hairdryer whirring)
251
00:14:31,789 --> 00:14:33,410
I'd no idea what I was
getting myself into,
252
00:14:33,410 --> 00:14:36,021
all I knew was that if I moved to London
253
00:14:36,021 --> 00:14:37,228
there would be nightlife there
254
00:14:37,228 --> 00:14:40,006
and there would be this
scene that you could find
255
00:14:40,006 --> 00:14:41,254
and you could belong to,
256
00:14:41,254 --> 00:14:45,749
because I hadn't felt like
I belonged to any community,
257
00:14:45,749 --> 00:14:48,038
I didn't feel like I was from anywhere,
258
00:14:48,038 --> 00:14:51,104
I didn't feel like I fitted
in any way in particular
259
00:14:51,104 --> 00:14:54,731
and so I just knew that there
were alternatives in London.

people are out and proud,
270
00:15:37,975 --> 00:15:39,635
because they've been victimized
271
00:15:39,635 --> 00:15:42,994
and being told that
they're misfits of society,
272
00:15:42,994 --> 00:15:44,621
and it wasn't acceptable.
273
00:15:44,621 --> 00:15:46,635
It's made much easier by meeting people

and getting on with people,
and talking to people
275

283
00:16:30,908 --> 00:16:33,594
associated with liberation,
284
00:16:33,594 --> 00:16:35,216
it begins in our minds,
285
00:16:35,216 --> 00:16:38,086
a distinct release from ties that bind
286
00:16:38,086 --> 00:16:42,123
by thinking positive
thoughts, ignoring the haters,
287
00:16:42,123 --> 00:16:45,723
turning the other cheek,
but don't be no fool.
288
00:16:45,723 --> 00:16:49,075
Come on, we've got to open
our hearts to give love
289
00:16:49,075 --> 00:16:51,195
so that we can receive it.
290
00:16:51,195 --> 00:16:52,778
Freedom ain't free.

- The biggest success that I have,
297
00:18:04,335 --> 00:18:07,150
for me, is the fact
that I fucking survived
298
00:18:07,150 --> 00:18:10,037
as a trans person of color.
299
00:18:10,037 --> 00:18:12,708
So imagine being marginalized
within the marginalized,
300
00:18:12,708 --> 00:18:14,005
within the marginalized,
301
00:18:14,005 --> 00:18:16,976
as I transitioned while I
was building a DJ career,
302
00:18:16,976 --> 00:18:18,779
I transitioned in the city of New York
303
00:18:18,779 --> 00:18:20,677
when there wasn't a word for trans people
304
00:18:20,677 --> 00:18:22,968
and you had all these people
from the outer boroughs
305
00:18:22,968 --> 00:18:25,835
that, if you were visibly
presenting as trans,
306
00:18:25,835 --> 00:18:27,585
it was life or death.
307
00:18:29,560 --> 00:18:30,710
I never found my place
308
00:18:30,710 --> 00:18:32,938
because, as a person of trans experience,
309
00:18:32,938 --> 00:18:35,148
I had to create my own tribe
310
00:18:35,148 --> 00:18:37,169
and I had to create my own world.
311
00:18:37,169 --> 00:18:40,037
And, for me, it wasn't so
much about what color you were
312
00:18:40,037 --> 00:18:40,901
or who you slept with,
313
00:18:40,901 --> 00:18:42,347
it was, do we vibe musically?
314
00:18:42,347 --> 00:18:44,347
Do we vibe artistically?
315
00:18:52,027 --> 00:18:55,907
- Queerness is a gift,
it's a way to see the world
316
00:18:55,907 --> 00:18:59,074
through a lens that enriches the world
317
00:19:00,749 --> 00:19:02,872
that is so needed in the world,
318
00:19:02,872 --> 00:19:07,122
but cannot be repressed
and cannot be extinguished.
319
00:19:11,795 --> 00:19:14,918
- It's about the music,
it's about coming together,
320
00:19:14,918 --> 00:19:17,976
I am in a space where I feel
completely free to be myself.
321
00:19:17,976 --> 00:19:19,561
(speaking French)
322
00:19:19,561 --> 00:19:20,958
It was just everything that's part of me
323
00:19:20,958 --> 00:19:22,356
the thing that I've
been telling you about,
324
00:19:22,356 --> 00:19:25,606
like fashion, dance, music, gay, black,
325
00:19:27,037 --> 00:19:30,963
I was like, that's me and
we get to dance together,
326
00:19:30,963 --> 00:19:32,647
sometimes there's a competition.
327
00:19:32,647 --> 00:19:34,960
But when the competition's over,
328
00:19:34,960 --> 00:19:37,377
we all go and dance together.
329
00:19:42,430 --> 00:19:45,338
- Queer people are coming into
the mainstream in a big way
330
00:19:45,338 --> 00:19:47,504
and we're influencing culture
331
00:19:47,504 --> 00:19:50,775
and we're influencing media, and change,
332
00:19:50,775 --> 00:19:54,573
and we're influencing music
and television, and film,
333
00:19:54,573 --> 00:19:57,098
and the mainstream
society's idea of gender
334
00:19:57,098 --> 00:19:57,931
is changing,
335
00:19:57,931 --> 00:20:01,181
and my generation are encouraging that.
336
00:20:02,406 --> 00:20:04,788
And so I hope that the next generation
337
00:20:04,788 --> 00:20:07,357
won't even be asking these questions,
338
00:20:07,357 --> 00:20:09,288
they'll just accept you for who you are.
339
00:20:09,288 --> 00:20:11,871
(upbeat music)
340
00:20:16,090 --> 00:20:17,449

342
00:20:18,574 --> 00:20:20,908
very pastel.
- Thank you!
343
00:20:20,908 --> 00:20:21,833
As I've got older,
344
00:20:21,833 --> 00:20:24,715
I've learnt to express
myself with my body more
345
00:20:24,715 --> 00:20:28,728
and because of that, I feel
like I can dance freely.
346

is somebody being authentically themselves
351
00:21:04,813 --> 00:21:06,813
and somebody being free.
352
00:21:10,939 --> 00:21:13,256
When you see other people celebrating
353
00:21:13,256 --> 00:21:15,889
and being encouraged by your freedom,
354
00:21:15,889 --> 00:21:17,097
that is the feeling
355
00:21:17,097 --> 00:21:21,097
when you're like this is
really, really special.
356
00:21:24,230 --> 00:21:26,203
- Clubs are about great music,
357
00:21:26,203 --> 00:21:30,453
but they're also about
exhibitionism and voyeurism.
358
00:21:31,680 --> 00:21:33,665
I've just always been obsessed
359
00:21:33,665 --> 00:21:36,425
with strong theatrical personas,
360
00:21:36,425 --> 00:21:41,130
people with exaggerated imagery,
anyone who's performing,
361
00:21:41,130 --> 00:21:42,698
so that chimes with the club thing
362
00:21:42,698 --> 00:21:43,641
because, as I said,
363
00:21:43,641 --> 00:21:48,048
clubs really are an arena
for people to perform.
364
00:21:48,048 --> 00:21:50,793
I quite like the idea of
bringing the glitter into it
365
00:21:50,793 --> 00:21:52,339
'cause it ties in,
obviously, with the name
366
00:21:52,339 --> 00:21:55,065
and it's an extra texture.
367
00:21:55,065 --> 00:21:57,843
Growing up in the early
'70s, realizing I was gay,
368
00:21:57,843 --> 00:21:59,127
I couldn't tell anyone
369
00:21:59,127 --> 00:22:02,959
and so it forced you to become an actor
370
00:22:02,959 --> 00:22:06,765
because you had to pretend that
you were like everyone else,
371
00:22:06,765 --> 00:22:09,985
but the club world in London's enabled me
372
00:22:09,985 --> 00:22:14,083
to actually live my life more truthfully,
373
00:22:14,083 --> 00:22:16,587
in a way, for myself.
374
00:22:16,587 --> 00:22:18,292
This is the newest one of Lucy,
375
00:22:18,292 --> 00:22:19,497
which I was really pleased with,
376
00:22:19,497 --> 00:22:21,013
everyone seems to like that one.
377
00:22:21,013 --> 00:22:23,128
Some of the performers they have,
378
00:22:23,128 --> 00:22:24,120
they have a certain charisma
379
00:22:24,120 --> 00:22:27,206
and it's transmitting
that through the artwork
380
00:22:27,206 --> 00:22:31,289
to give people an idea of
what the club is about.
381
00:22:34,924 --> 00:22:37,046
- There've been loads of
people who've nudged me
382
00:22:37,046 --> 00:22:40,129
into becoming a dancer and performer,
383
00:22:41,303 --> 00:22:43,908
Glyn's been one of the key figures
384
00:22:43,908 --> 00:22:46,392
in encouraging me to perform.
385
00:22:46,392 --> 00:22:47,759
- Go away.
- Hello!
386
00:22:47,759 --> 00:22:49,050
- Lucy Fizz!
387
00:22:49,050 --> 00:22:51,050
- [Lucy] Hi, hello, hi!
388
00:22:53,913 --> 00:22:56,606
- I'd always wanted Lucy to be involved
389
00:22:56,606 --> 00:22:59,373
and I'm just gonna talk frankly here,
390
00:22:59,373 --> 00:23:01,843
I think Lucy might have been a bit wild
391
00:23:01,843 --> 00:23:03,422
for Glitterbox at the beginning.
392
00:23:03,422 --> 00:23:06,500
- I think I was wild for Glitterbox
393
00:23:06,500 --> 00:23:08,155
up until last year.
394
00:23:08,155 --> 00:23:09,031
- Yeah.
- I think.
395
00:23:09,031 --> 00:23:13,649
- But I also think that Lucy
is the most punk ass performer
396
00:23:13,649 --> 00:23:14,533
I've ever met
397
00:23:14,533 --> 00:23:15,407
and I've always said that,
398
00:23:15,407 --> 00:23:19,823
Lucy has got pop star energy
where, it doesn't matter,
399
00:23:19,823 --> 00:23:23,344
you can be in a 5,000
capacity space or a room of 10
400
00:23:23,344 --> 00:23:25,435
and Fizz will get it pumping,
401
00:23:25,435 --> 00:23:26,803
and that is a gift,
402
00:23:26,803 --> 00:23:29,486
that's like something that you do,
403
00:23:29,486 --> 00:23:32,020
it's like watching a conductor,
you know what I mean?
404
00:23:32,020 --> 00:23:35,390
She's a disco conductor,
put that on a business card.
405
00:23:35,390 --> 00:23:37,325
(laughing)
406
00:23:37,325 --> 00:23:40,408
(upbeat funky music)
407
00:23:45,664 --> 00:23:47,923
- We don't want to forget, in any way,
408
00:23:47,923 --> 00:23:52,673
the music that has led
people to the current scene,
409
00:23:52,673 --> 00:23:55,207
the DJs that created
the scene, the pioneers,
410
00:23:55,207 --> 00:23:56,923
the music that they used to play,
411
00:23:56,923 --> 00:23:59,590
that's really, really important.
412
00:24:05,912 --> 00:24:07,410
- It's amazing when I think back
413
00:24:07,410 --> 00:24:09,558
at the history of dance music,
414
00:24:09,558 --> 00:24:10,796
that I was fortunate enough
415
00:24:10,796 --> 00:24:12,310
to have grown up in New York City
416
00:24:12,310 --> 00:24:15,393
and was able to see, what I consider,
417
00:24:16,370 --> 00:24:18,107
some of the greatest DJs of all time
418
00:24:18,107 --> 00:24:21,502
in the residency that
they were most famous for
419
00:24:21,502 --> 00:24:25,835
and that was just, you know,
pure luck, if anything.
420
00:24:27,278 --> 00:24:29,591
We're standing on Mercer and Prince
421
00:24:29,591 --> 00:24:34,368
and in this building is where
The Loft was at 99 Prince.
422
00:24:34,368 --> 00:24:37,451
(vehicles whooshing)
423
00:24:53,021 --> 00:24:54,137
I grew up in South Bronx,
424
00:24:54,137 --> 00:24:56,304
so there were a lot of drugs around me,
425
00:24:56,304 --> 00:24:57,889
people getting killed,
426
00:24:57,889 --> 00:24:59,926
lots of my friends becoming junkies,
427
00:24:59,926 --> 00:25:02,990
so I just knew that I had to do something
428
00:25:02,990 --> 00:25:05,782
to get out of the world that I was in.
429
00:25:05,782 --> 00:25:07,066
It got to a point
430
00:25:07,066 --> 00:25:10,706
where my mom was telling
me you need to have a job
431
00:25:10,706 --> 00:25:12,447
and then I had explained to her
432
00:25:12,447 --> 00:25:15,174
that I wanted to be a DJ in a nightclub
433
00:25:15,174 --> 00:25:16,891
and she was like,
434
00:25:16,891 --> 00:25:21,865
someone's gonna pay you
to play records all night?
435
00:25:21,865 --> 00:25:23,724
I was like, yeah, it's a job.
436
00:25:23,724 --> 00:25:24,557
I'm just gonna say,
437
00:25:24,557 --> 00:25:26,578
we're on the corner of Mercer and Houston
438
00:25:26,578 --> 00:25:30,849
and behind me is the
entrance to The Gallery,
439
00:25:30,849 --> 00:25:34,201
where Nicky Siano reigned for many years.
440
00:25:34,201 --> 00:25:36,689
And, as a teenager, I would come here
441
00:25:36,689 --> 00:25:41,334
and bother him and ask him
for the names of songs,
442
00:25:41,334 --> 00:25:42,712
I'd come with pen and paper in hand
443
00:25:42,712 --> 00:25:44,969
'cause I knew I was always
gonna hear something
444
00:25:44,969 --> 00:25:46,441
I never heard before.
445
00:25:46,441 --> 00:25:49,524
(upbeat funky music)
446
00:25:58,158 --> 00:25:59,330
So basically that's.
447
00:25:59,330 --> 00:26:03,464
- This is the entrance, this
is the line before we opened,
448
00:26:03,464 --> 00:26:06,607
here was the entrance
right off the corner.
449
00:26:06,607 --> 00:26:10,264
I mean, these two clubs were
the basis for everything
450
00:26:10,264 --> 00:26:12,401
and still to today.
451
00:26:12,401 --> 00:26:15,009
That's what happened with
The Gallery and The Loft,
452
00:26:15,009 --> 00:26:17,228
people understood it.
453
00:26:17,228 --> 00:26:20,010
I remember the first week
we opened at this place,
454
00:26:20,010 --> 00:26:21,507
it was 120 people
455
00:26:21,507 --> 00:26:24,155
and the second week was 700 people,
456
00:26:24,155 --> 00:26:26,569
that's how quick the word spread.
457
00:26:26,569 --> 00:26:27,881
A lot of people stopped by,
458
00:26:27,881 --> 00:26:32,304
David Bowie, Mick Jagger
stopped by, Patti LaBelle.
459
00:26:32,304 --> 00:26:35,798
- It was a mixed crowd straight and gay,
460
00:26:35,798 --> 00:26:39,548
black, white, Asian,
Hispanic, young and old.
461
00:26:40,475 --> 00:26:41,308
- Different race,
462
00:26:41,308 --> 00:26:43,990
you're a different sexual
preference and it didn't matter
463
00:26:43,990 --> 00:26:48,907
'cause you were all there to
groove on the music, to dance,
464
00:26:49,769 --> 00:26:51,669
you were all there to dance.
465
00:26:51,669 --> 00:26:54,752
(upbeat disco music)
466
00:26:55,967 --> 00:26:59,975
- What I felt performing in
these clubs at that young age,
467
00:26:59,975 --> 00:27:03,179
I really felt a sense of individualism,
468
00:27:03,179 --> 00:27:05,063
be who you are and feel okay with it.
469
00:27:05,063 --> 00:27:08,127
At 14/15, I was 16 when
I sang, "We Are Family",
470
00:27:08,127 --> 00:27:09,769
I was always working in clubs
471
00:27:09,769 --> 00:27:12,729
so I think that's what I
felt, a sense of expression
472
00:27:12,729 --> 00:27:14,479
that had no barriers.
473
00:27:17,572 --> 00:27:21,736
I was understanding how it
brought people together,
474
00:27:21,736 --> 00:27:22,902
the music did,
475
00:27:22,902 --> 00:27:24,402
it was a sense of,
476
00:27:25,379 --> 00:27:28,347
the first word that comes to
mind, freedom of expression
477
00:27:28,347 --> 00:27:32,264
and freedom of enjoying
yourself and not caring
478
00:27:33,725 --> 00:27:36,924
who's looking, you're having a good time
479
00:27:36,924 --> 00:27:40,341
and socially too, it broke down barriers.
480
00:27:42,800 --> 00:27:45,706
- You have to remember what
was happening socially,
481
00:27:45,706 --> 00:27:48,630
Civil Rights, the Vietnam War,
482
00:27:48,630 --> 00:27:53,380
people got out and protested
every day and ended the war,
483
00:27:54,808 --> 00:27:57,617
and then they got rid of the president!
484
00:27:57,617 --> 00:27:59,829
All that stuff happened
485
00:27:59,829 --> 00:28:03,211
and people were feeling very powerful,
486
00:28:03,211 --> 00:28:06,836
people felt like they were bonded together
487
00:28:06,836 --> 00:28:09,003
and when the clubs opened,
488
00:28:09,847 --> 00:28:13,180
it was a place where people could gather
489
00:28:14,455 --> 00:28:16,288
and share their power,
490
00:28:17,939 --> 00:28:19,837
they would share their power
491
00:28:19,837 --> 00:28:23,587
and they would unify it
and make it stronger.
492
00:28:25,052 --> 00:28:27,486
And when you spent a night at The Gallery
493
00:28:27,486 --> 00:28:30,969
you felt like you went to a protest,
494
00:28:30,969 --> 00:28:34,552
like you went to church,
you were uplifted.
495
00:28:35,489 --> 00:28:38,572
(upbeat disco music)
496
00:28:40,877 --> 00:28:44,348
- Coming up, there was
always a separatism of music,
497
00:28:44,348 --> 00:28:47,930
there was R&B, there
was pop, black, white,
498
00:28:47,930 --> 00:28:51,347
dance totally created a bridge with that.
499
00:28:53,804 --> 00:28:56,613
Being African-American women
500
00:28:56,613 --> 00:28:58,363
and especially in that time,
501
00:28:58,363 --> 00:29:02,221
there was a sense of
responsibility with what you sing,
502
00:29:02,221 --> 00:29:06,638
owning up to the lyrics that
you put your heart into.
503
00:29:09,997 --> 00:29:14,169
- All the songs represented
a kind of let's get together
504
00:29:14,169 --> 00:29:18,923
and take them over or spread
love, or change the world.
505
00:29:18,923 --> 00:29:22,797
- Songs definitely had
messages in the lyrics
506
00:29:22,797 --> 00:29:25,040
and I think they were definitely relative
507
00:29:25,040 --> 00:29:29,540
to whoever felt them and
what they were going through.
508
00:29:30,499 --> 00:29:34,747
- You went to dance and you
danced to whatever David played,
509
00:29:34,747 --> 00:29:37,446
whatever I played, and you got into it
510
00:29:37,446 --> 00:29:40,811
because you trusted me, you trusted David,
511
00:29:40,811 --> 00:29:42,609
we weren't gonna put on shit,
512
00:29:42,609 --> 00:29:46,677
we played from midnight
till nine in the morning
513
00:29:46,677 --> 00:29:48,594
and that was a journey.
514
00:29:49,849 --> 00:29:51,904
- I'm really sad that Gallery's ending
515
00:29:51,904 --> 00:29:54,387
but everything has a beginning and a end,
516
00:29:54,387 --> 00:29:57,058
and I hope that there
will be another beginning.
517
00:29:57,058 --> 00:29:58,924
- [Interviewee]
Unfortunately it's closing,
518
00:29:58,924 --> 00:30:01,202
but we'll leave here and go to the Garage,
519
00:30:01,202 --> 00:30:04,535
there's always one other place to go to.
520
00:30:06,886 --> 00:30:10,829
- We're standing between
Barrick and Hudson,
521
00:30:10,829 --> 00:30:12,593
just where the Paradise Garage was
522
00:30:12,593 --> 00:30:16,510
and I haven't been here,
wow, in over a decade,
523
00:30:17,733 --> 00:30:19,281
and I haven't passed by here.
524
00:30:19,281 --> 00:30:23,054
I still can't believe it,
it's just not there anymore.
525
00:30:23,054 --> 00:30:26,137
(upbeat disco music)
526
00:30:34,021 --> 00:30:34,854
I'd come here
527
00:30:34,854 --> 00:30:36,547
and the line would be down the block,
528
00:30:36,547 --> 00:30:38,417
and inside it would be packed,
529
00:30:38,417 --> 00:30:42,417
it was dark, tight, space
and all gay, all black
530
00:30:43,731 --> 00:30:46,971
and it was an amazing energy in that room.
531
00:30:46,971 --> 00:30:48,489
And it's strange, you know,
532
00:30:48,489 --> 00:30:50,027
I spent a lot of nights in there,
533
00:30:50,027 --> 00:30:52,605
there was a room full of love and magic
534
00:30:52,605 --> 00:30:57,265
and people dancing, and
forgetting all their troubles
535
00:30:57,265 --> 00:30:59,515
and coming together as one,
536
00:31:01,317 --> 00:31:04,373
I don't know, it makes
me feel sad and happy
537
00:31:04,373 --> 00:31:09,040
to know what was there, but
sad to see what's there now.
538
00:31:17,813 --> 00:31:18,646
- Hello!
539
00:31:19,931 --> 00:31:23,937
We're in New York and we're
on the way to House of Yes,
540
00:31:23,937 --> 00:31:27,550
this is my first time in New York,
541
00:31:27,550 --> 00:31:28,757
really excited to be here,
542
00:31:28,757 --> 00:31:31,018
I can't wait to perform tonight.
543
00:31:31,018 --> 00:31:32,897
I've had the call sheet
544
00:31:32,897 --> 00:31:36,121
and it looks like there's huge production
545
00:31:36,121 --> 00:31:40,716
and loads of teams of different
dancers and performers,
546
00:31:40,716 --> 00:31:43,940
so I need to figure out
where I fit into all of that
547
00:31:43,940 --> 00:31:46,190
and what they want from me.
548
00:31:56,589 --> 00:31:58,339
Oh my God, it's sick!
549
00:32:02,326 --> 00:32:04,257
- We're not the first
people to be dressing up
550
00:32:04,257 --> 00:32:05,696
and dancing to disco music,
551
00:32:05,696 --> 00:32:09,001
I feel like we are a part
of a legacy and a history,
552
00:32:09,001 --> 00:32:10,568
and we are carrying forth
553
00:32:10,568 --> 00:32:14,818
a certain sort of ethos
and belief into the present
554
00:32:16,022 --> 00:32:18,809
and obviously into the future.
555
00:32:18,809 --> 00:32:22,067
House of Yes is a space
dedicated to entertainment
556
00:32:22,067 --> 00:32:23,180
and self expression,
557
00:32:23,180 --> 00:32:28,180
so we do that through having
theater shows and dance parties
558
00:32:28,229 --> 00:32:30,517
but it really is a magnet
that attracts people
559
00:32:30,517 --> 00:32:33,414
who are like-minded,
believe in positivity,
560
00:32:33,414 --> 00:32:35,035
believe in self-expression,
561
00:32:35,035 --> 00:32:38,931
and diversity, inclusivity,
and good dance music.
562
00:32:38,931 --> 00:32:43,085
- (laughing) No one told me about this.
563
00:32:43,085 --> 00:32:44,653
It's amazing, I can't wait,
564
00:32:44,653 --> 00:32:49,114
I'm terrified about going in
the spinning cage of death
565
00:32:49,114 --> 00:32:50,189
and climbing up that wall
566
00:32:50,189 --> 00:32:54,843
in my six inch platform
heels is gonna be interesting
567
00:32:54,843 --> 00:32:56,426
but I'm so excited.
568
00:32:59,767 --> 00:33:01,777
It's like a dream come true.
569
00:33:01,777 --> 00:33:04,860
(upbeat disco music)
570
00:33:25,704 --> 00:33:28,517
- Club culture was more
than just entertainment
571
00:33:28,517 --> 00:33:30,050
and the music reflected that,
572
00:33:30,050 --> 00:33:32,956
these were safe spaces
for people of color,
573
00:33:32,956 --> 00:33:34,862
for gender non-conforming people,
574
00:33:34,862 --> 00:33:37,507
for trans people, for black
people, for Latin people,
575
00:33:37,507 --> 00:33:39,709
and so it's not surprising to me
576
00:33:39,709 --> 00:33:43,588
that queer people of color
which were marginalized people,
577
00:33:43,588 --> 00:33:47,036
weren't allowed in these sort
of artistic creative spaces,
578
00:33:47,036 --> 00:33:48,128
created their own.
579
00:33:48,128 --> 00:33:49,695
And so then when you go to these places
580
00:33:49,695 --> 00:33:50,843
where you find your tribe,
581
00:33:50,843 --> 00:33:54,632
it's celebrated and it's
freeing and it's enriching,
582
00:33:54,632 --> 00:33:57,211
and it gives purpose and
meaning to your life.
583
00:33:57,211 --> 00:33:58,336
- Can I get a fuck yes?
584
00:33:58,336 --> 00:33:59,169
- [Group] Fuck yes.
585
00:33:59,169 --> 00:34:01,399
- We also love consent,
it's 100% mandatory
586
00:34:01,399 --> 00:34:03,060
and, just like me, super sexy,
587
00:34:03,060 --> 00:34:04,904
so yes means yes and no means?
588
00:34:04,904 --> 00:34:06,071
- [Group] No.
589
00:34:06,925 --> 00:34:09,002
- House of Yes in its peak moment
590
00:34:09,002 --> 00:34:13,169
feels like your costume
closet and your art studio
591
00:34:16,362 --> 00:34:18,747
made this crazy art baby
592
00:34:18,747 --> 00:34:20,296
and then threw it up in the air,
593
00:34:20,296 --> 00:34:22,984
and everything's just covered
in glitter and confetti,
594
00:34:22,984 --> 00:34:26,096
and just a big sea of people
595
00:34:26,096 --> 00:34:28,751
dressed in whatever the
hell they wanna dress in,
596
00:34:28,751 --> 00:34:30,751
just flying and dancing.

601
00:34:49,180 --> 00:34:50,646

602
00:34:50,646 --> 00:34:53,278
where it's okay to be yourself
603
00:34:53,278 --> 00:34:57,861
and it's okay to do your thing
and that we will accept you,
604
00:34:57,861 --> 00:35:00,194

music moves people and
allows them to be free
608
00:35:15,513 --> 00:35:18,346
and that, for me, is so rewarding.
609
00:35:21,801 --> 00:35:24,881
- Our motivation right
now and our intention
610
00:35:24,881 --> 00:35:28,798
is to help, is to be in
service to a community.

whether it's about mental
health or sexual health,

there's a lot of that,
there's even social health
615
00:35:44,042 --> 00:35:46,229
and opening people's perspectives
616
00:35:46,229 --> 00:35:49,681

(train rattling)
621
00:36:21,865 --> 00:36:25,948
- I came to New York City
on December 27th, 1990.
622
00:36:27,423 --> 00:36:30,846
I have a real affinity
for the dance floor,
623
00:36:30,846 --> 00:36:32,998
it was a healing space for us,
624
00:36:32,998 --> 00:36:35,698
it was like a family
reunion for us every week,
625
00:36:35,698 --> 00:36:38,943
for those of us who were
living through the AIDS crisis
626
00:36:38,943 --> 00:36:43,193
it was a place to fellowship,
to heal, to recharge,
627
00:36:44,218 --> 00:36:47,369
so that we could go back
out and face the world
628
00:36:47,369 --> 00:36:49,964
that was not so pleasant at the time.
629
00:36:49,964 --> 00:36:52,631
(emotive music)
630
00:36:58,434 --> 00:37:03,434
It was a plague and people were
dropping dead on the streets
631
00:37:04,620 --> 00:37:06,021
and nobody cared.
632
00:37:06,021 --> 00:37:08,330
We were dying, gay men first,
633
00:37:08,330 --> 00:37:11,663
were dying of a plague and nobody cared.
634
00:37:12,564 --> 00:37:16,792
The government didn't talk
about it for eight years.
635
00:37:16,792 --> 00:37:18,851
We marched on streets,
636
00:37:18,851 --> 00:37:21,629
we fought for medication,
we fought to live,
637
00:37:21,629 --> 00:37:24,873
and the dance floor was
the place that we went
638
00:37:24,873 --> 00:37:28,540
to be with each other,
to heal, to recharge,
639
00:37:29,846 --> 00:37:31,701
to find a space where
we could have the energy
640
00:37:31,701 --> 00:37:36,076
to go back out into the
world and fight some more.
641
00:37:36,076 --> 00:37:38,380
There was a whole group
of religious people
642
00:37:38,380 --> 00:37:42,770
from their pulpits,
spouting hateful rhetoric
643
00:37:42,770 --> 00:37:45,580
that AIDS was God's punishment,
644
00:37:45,580 --> 00:37:47,747
you deserve it you faggot,
645
00:37:51,738 --> 00:37:54,155
that's what we lived through.
646
00:37:55,785 --> 00:37:56,785
How are you?
647
00:37:58,213 --> 00:37:59,489
Didn't tell me you was coming,
648
00:37:59,489 --> 00:38:01,322
I said, this is crazy!
649
00:38:03,767 --> 00:38:06,150
This is crazy.
- I know.
650
00:38:06,150 --> 00:38:07,641

00:38:07,641 --> 00:38:09,558
this is like, for real,

we went through it together.
653

- Together.
654
00:38:13,909 --> 00:38:16,025
- We went through hell together
655
00:38:16,025 --> 00:38:17,632
and came out on the other side.
656
00:38:17,632 --> 00:38:20,299
I want all of my work to reflect
657
00:38:21,486 --> 00:38:24,799

through, who I really am,
658
00:38:24,799 --> 00:38:27,151

As a gay man coming out in
1985 in the middle of a plague,
662
00:38:37,153 --> 00:38:38,832
love was not an option,
663
00:38:38,832 --> 00:38:43,804
love was transient, love
was what other people had,
664
00:38:43,804 --> 00:38:45,865
because if you allowed yourself
665
00:38:45,865 --> 00:38:48,934
to be vulnerable enough to be in love,
666
00:38:48,934 --> 00:38:51,000
that person could be dead
in a matter of weeks.
667
00:38:51,000 --> 00:38:53,910
So we cut ourselves off unconsciously,
668
00:38:53,910 --> 00:38:56,038
we blocked ourselves from that.
669
00:38:56,038 --> 00:38:58,834
That's why I'm ready to
finally fall in love,
670

701
00:41:09,430 --> 00:41:13,097

00:41:15,102 --> 00:41:18,519
and sparkly and happy, and full of energy
703
00:41:19,500 --> 00:41:23,271
and the best possible feeling
you can feel about yourself,
704
00:41:23,271 --> 00:41:25,604
that's what fabulous means.
705
00:41:26,615 --> 00:41:31,615
- I mean, to me fabulous is
believing in oneself enough,
706
00:41:31,768 --> 00:41:33,787
loving oneself enough,
707
00:41:33,787 --> 00:41:38,537
to know that you are enough
to then be whatever you want.

- I don't know, I don't
know why I'm like this.
712
00:41:51,646 --> 00:41:55,281
I think what makes me fabulous
is my outlook on life,
713
00:41:55,281 --> 00:41:56,914
I think if you have a fabulous outlook
714
00:41:56,914 --> 00:42:01,587
and you want fabulousness
from people, you'll find it,
715
00:42:01,587 --> 00:42:05,587
yeah, I think it's an
energy more than anything.
716
00:42:07,682 --> 00:42:08,741
- They're like superstars,
717
00:42:08,741 --> 00:42:10,270
they're like the superheroes of the night,
718
00:42:10,270 --> 00:42:12,668
they elevate the energy,
they keep everything going
719
00:42:12,668 --> 00:42:15,151
and some people even go
to the Glitterbox shows
720
00:42:15,151 --> 00:42:16,707
just to watch the performances,
721
00:42:16,707 --> 00:42:19,404
'cause these dancers are just next level.
722
00:42:19,404 --> 00:42:21,381
So we figured we wanted
to create a campaign
723
00:42:21,381 --> 00:42:23,445
that reflects that spectacle
724
00:42:23,445 --> 00:42:26,245
and the weight of the
power these guys have
725
00:42:26,245 --> 00:42:28,745
to bring positivity to a room.
726
00:42:30,682 --> 00:42:34,332
- We want people to stand
out and look individual
727
00:42:34,332 --> 00:42:38,415
and be themselves, without
any fear or prejudice,
728
00:42:39,775 --> 00:42:41,242
and if they can do it on the dance floor,
729
00:42:41,242 --> 00:42:45,962
if they can do it in life,
it's an amazing thing.
730
00:42:45,962 --> 00:42:50,421
- Glitterbox have definitely
helped me find my own aesthetic
731
00:42:50,421 --> 00:42:53,591
and shape the person that I am now.
732
00:42:53,591 --> 00:42:56,063
I'm comfortable enough
or at least strong enough
733
00:42:56,063 --> 00:42:58,958
to go back to Paris, face my old demon,
734
00:42:58,958 --> 00:43:01,392
but also mostly reconnect with my sister
735
00:43:01,392 --> 00:43:04,392
who is taking a big place in my life
736
00:43:06,170 --> 00:43:07,854
and who is really important to me,
737
00:43:07,854 --> 00:43:11,771
so I think it's the right
time for me to do it.
738
00:43:14,735 --> 00:43:16,737
The more I get,
739
00:43:16,737 --> 00:43:18,412
at the minute, I'm really scared
740
00:43:18,412 --> 00:43:20,408
because I feel like 'cause
we didn't leave things
741
00:43:20,408 --> 00:43:24,491
in the best way last time
we spoke to each other,
742
00:43:26,071 --> 00:43:28,274
but that was five years ago now
743
00:43:28,274 --> 00:43:31,357
so I'm hoping things are better now.
744
00:43:32,928 --> 00:43:35,481
But Paris was really tough
for me toward the end
745
00:43:35,481 --> 00:43:40,336
and I felt like I was being
a danger for myself mostly,
746
00:43:40,336 --> 00:43:42,797
and I didn't wanna be here anymore.
747
00:43:42,797 --> 00:43:45,710
And it's just hard to face
all those things again,
748
00:43:45,710 --> 00:43:48,932
but I think I need to
see through all of that
749
00:43:48,932 --> 00:43:51,432
and find some positive things.
750
00:43:52,432 --> 00:43:56,015
(train announcement sound)
751
00:44:16,187 --> 00:44:19,270
(speaking in French)
752
00:44:47,925 --> 00:44:50,175
(laughing)
753
00:45:24,807 --> 00:45:28,640
I was happy to see that
she was open to rebond
754
00:45:29,736 --> 00:45:32,736
and to start fresh, have a new start
755
00:45:33,812 --> 00:45:36,447
and I feel much lighter now,
756
00:45:36,447 --> 00:45:38,570
but it's still a lot to process,
757
00:45:38,570 --> 00:45:41,362
my head is just about to explode,
758
00:45:41,362 --> 00:45:45,195
but I feel really happy
about the way it went.
759
00:45:46,973 --> 00:45:47,939
- Breaking down the rules
760
00:45:47,939 --> 00:45:51,263
of people's preconceptions and prejudice
761
00:45:51,263 --> 00:45:53,199
and unifying people on the dance floor,
762
00:45:53,199 --> 00:45:55,227
and everybody being
equal on the dance floor,
763
00:45:55,227 --> 00:45:57,603
they're huge statements for us.

for a lot of the dancers,
780
00:46:29,375 --> 00:46:33,572
is a really important place,
you know, physically as well.
781
00:46:33,572 --> 00:46:36,696
- When we do Glitterbox in London
782
00:46:36,696 --> 00:46:41,179
it always feels like the
family's all back together.
783
00:46:41,179 --> 00:46:43,179
- This is my mum, Suzie!
784
00:46:44,640 --> 00:46:46,181
I think when you get to a level
785
00:46:46,181 --> 00:46:47,650
where you've got nothing to hide,
786
00:46:47,650 --> 00:46:49,117
you can bring your mum to a rave
787
00:46:49,117 --> 00:46:50,830
and being at Printworks
788
00:46:50,830 --> 00:46:53,591
is a way of connecting all
those little dots of who you are
789
00:46:53,591 --> 00:46:56,174
and bringing them all together.

together in this huge space
792
00:47:03,650 --> 00:47:05,065
where we've all got air to breathe
793
00:47:05,065 --> 00:47:07,267

that any of us will get
to that place in life
797
00:47:15,815 --> 00:47:18,633

on such a large scale
798
00:47:18,633 --> 00:47:21,550

I've been told that I was too skinny,
830
00:48:33,531 --> 00:48:36,329
I was too this, I was too
black, or I was too feminine
831
00:48:36,329 --> 00:48:38,947
and if you would have told
me when I was a teenager
832
00:48:38,947 --> 00:48:41,680
that I will be in a thong and heels
833
00:48:41,680 --> 00:48:44,136
dancing in front of thousands of people,
834
00:48:44,136 --> 00:48:48,469
I would have probably shit
my pants and be like no.
835

that lets me get up on stage
in front of 5,000 people

that I won't dare go and speak to someone.

- There's one thing
feeling free in yourself,
840

but there is another thing
841
00:49:16,021 --> 00:49:19,438

- Whatever we are doing,
846
00:50:10,512 --> 00:50:14,641
it's beyond being on the stage
and it's beyond the music,
847
00:50:14,641 --> 00:50:18,075
it's just about embracing whatever you are
848
00:50:18,075 --> 00:50:20,658
and whatever you've been given.
849
00:50:23,950 --> 00:50:25,041
- It is that feeling
850
00:50:25,041 --> 00:50:28,565
of people telling you that
you're perfect as you are,
851
00:50:28,565 --> 00:50:29,889
you don't have to change,
852
00:50:29,889 --> 00:50:33,556
what you're doing right
now is good enough.
853
00:50:36,746 --> 00:50:40,413
- Do not look for
validation on the outside,
854
00:50:42,028 --> 00:50:46,111
be your own validation,
speak life into yourself.
855

Find your tribe, find the
tribe, find your family,
856
