WOW! Can't believe I OFFICIALLY have a website, TOO FREAKING AWESOME lol. The BIG question is....... What am I going to write? I thought my very FIRST blog should be about the my experience on set of the upcoming #SlumberParty music video by SKITTLEZ x Jarrid Jones. I mean how many people can say they travel out of state to do a music video? CUNT, FIERCE, FEATHERS, SEX and INCLUSIVENESS is honestly what comes mind when having to describe the video's concept. Such an expensive feeling that is! I know.... but you sit here and tell me being in a neoclassical gem dating from 1902 with a wrought iron staircase and a coffered ceiling and towering windows overlooking one of the city’s most popular park wouldn't make you feel like Betty Davis in The Golden Palace. LOL! Everything from the amazing location (WeWork Bryant Park in NYC), to learning the choreography the day of, to all of the sexy, talented and of course down to earth dancers, to my boyfriend getting sick off of McDonald's, to missing my bus home, to having to stay in a hostel prison like hotel to that 4 hour Greyhound trip made it all so worth it! What made being on this set so incredible was being apart of something that celebrated and featured so many people of the LGBTQ community but also included those apart of our Bear Community. Let me tell you, being in an environment where EVERY SINGLE person male/female, BIG/small or cisgender/transgender is talented really does put a fire under your ass. I can't thank SKITTLEZ enough for reaching out and giving me this opportunity.
FUNNY FACT: The hostel hotel my boyfriend and I stayed at had jail-styled bunk beds. The toilet AND shower were in a closet outside in the hallway.
So stay tuned! The #SlumberParty music video will be released Feb. 23, 2017 around 9 pm. Can't wait for you all to see it

I don't know about you guys but I hate choreographing a majority of the time. LOL! OK yes, knowing how to choreograph is a major requirement if you're trying to expand your services but it is such a damn pain in the ass. Well for me it is! I guess the main issue is when you're choreographing you not only are trying to find your niche, but also making sure you aren't repetitive and making sure your moves make sense and you don't look like a damn fool LMAO. You can't forget all of the other talented dancers this world has. So it is very intimidating coming up with something that not only represents you as an artist but also shows how damn talented you are lol.
Honestly, I feel like I'm a great choreographer in my head. No really! Every time I have the music blasting out my headphones my mind goes into this whole other dimension. It's like I'm daydreaming as I'm walking to work or to the store or to anywhere my little bitty heart desires to go lol. I can't tell you how many times I back up danced for Jennifer Lopez, KeKe Palmer and even Britney Spears haha. But then reality hits and so many things hold me back from doing what I imagine of doing. It sucks not believing in yourself. It really does. A comfortable life really does take a lot of work, sweat, tears, break downs and swear words.
It sucks that the guys and I aren't really doing much with Queer 5 (Q5). There's been so many damn performances and so many once in a lifetime encounters we've had all up in my head. Like for goodness sake we were Fifth Harmony's special guest and killing it I may add.
Any questions or have thoughts of your own just let me know.
Namaste
