URGE Miami Festival Returns This Thanksgiving Weekend
With Three Massive Night Spectaculars and the Steamiest Beach Party on the Sands of South Beach
URGE Miami Festival returns this Thanksgiving weekend with three massive nighttime events and three sizzling daytime fetes including the Royal Palm Pool Party and the legendary Beach Party on the sands of South Beach. Produced by Luis Morera, Billy Kemp and Hilton Wolman, the LGBTQ+ festival weekend will take place November 25-28 and will feature a list of the world’s most famous circuit DJs including Alex Lo, Dan Slater, Edu Quintas, Enrico Meloni, Jerac, Joe Gauthreaux, Marvin Ayy, Mauro Mozart, Paulo Fragoso, Suri and Tom Stephan, with more to be announced.
“After the massive success of last year’s Thanksgiving festival, we are excited to do it all over again, bigger and better than ever before,” says Hilton Wolman.
URGE Miami Festival kicks off Friday, November 25 at 10pm when Barcelona’s Matinee Group makes its triumphant return to Miami with Matinee Pervert XXL. DJ’s Tom Stephan and Alex Lo will take over the decks at Miami's newest nightclub, M2 Nightclub, for their raunchiest production ever. The historic nightclub (formerly known as Paragon/Glam Slam/Level/Mansion and Icon) has been transformed with $10 million in upgrades to structure, sound and lighting. At 35,000 square feet, it will be the largest party ever thrown by URGE. Matinee Group is promising a level of production seldom seen before and they are flying in some of the hottest dancers from Spain and Europe to keep the dancefloor shaking into the wee morning hours.
At 2pm on Saturday is the Royal Palm South Beach pool party, presented by Eliad Cohen as part of the Papa World Tour. DJs Dan Slater and Paulo Fragoso will raise the temps with their high energy beats, making extensive use of the incredible facilities offered by Royal Palm. Expect plenty of wet and wild, splish and splashy fun and gorgeous men in skimpy bikinis.
The weekend’s Saturday night Main Event, URGE Warrior, will take place at one of Miami's premier film studios, home to some of the biggest blockbusters on HBO Max and Netflix, on their largest sound stage. DJs Suri and Mauro Mozart will battle it out with incredible beats in a spectacular production, sure to amaze.
It leads to the signature event of the weekend: the long-established Sunday Beach Party on the sands of South Beach. The sandblast begins at 2pm with DJ’s Enrico Meloni from Italy and Joe Gauthreaux from the USA dropping the beats on the largest stage and dancefloor and most colossal VIP deck this event has seen before. Kidd Madonny and his company, 3DX, are building the decor for the party and like last year, it will incorporate URGE Miami Festival’s yellow and white retro resort and cabana influenced theme.
“Circuit fans come from all over the world to experience one of America’s biggest LGBTQ beach parties,” Wolman explains. “We will not disappoint.”
This year’s host hotel is the Royal Palm South Beach. With 400 rooms, more than a quarter of which are suites, the Royal Palm is one of South Beach’s largest hotels, superbly located directly on the beach on Collins at the end of Ocean Drive. It offers a superior experience and will serve as the location of URGE Miami Festival’s Welcome Center and Saturday Pool Party. It is also a short walk to a majority of the parties. Special $249 room rates are available while supplies last.
A portion of the proceeds from URGE Miami Festival will once again benefit Miami Beach Pride, a not-for-profit organization that works to unite members of the LGBTQ community by celebrating the unique spirit and culture of its people.
Tickets for URGE Miami Festival are available now on the website. GA and VIP tickets are available, as is the popular 24-hour pass that includes the Sunday Beach Party, Sunday night event and Monday morning Afterhours event.

David Hernandez Bares All In New EP And Book
Don’t @ Me - EP Cover Image David Hernandez
David Hernandez is baring it all. And not just on his new EP Don’t @ Me. To accompany Don’t @ Me, Hernandez is releasing a coffee-table book full of his nudes in tandem with the musical project this Friday (March 11).
Hernandez is no stranger to public nudity. Before conceptualizing Don’t @ Me, or his book #NSFW, he starred in a Las Vegas production of Naked Boys Singing. On his Instagram page, he often dons a jockstrap, showing off his backside, while posing seductively in nature or against a solid backdrop.
“My friends, when I go to their houses, especially in New York, they have these coffee table books, like the dick book, or like the ass book,” Hernandez tells Unleashed LGBTQ. “You open it up, and it's just all of these beautiful nude photos. They’re just so well done and tasteful that I wanted to join the likes of those coffee table books.”
The former American Idol top 12 contestant began working on music before signing onto Naked Boys Singing, however, the feelings of sexual liberation he felt while naked on stage kickstarted his musical process.
“I was inspired just to be myself,” Hernandez tells Unleashed LGBTQ, “to feel free to, honor the sexual side of myself and the nudist side of myself. The content on the EP is very adult, it's honest, and it’s gay as well. And I thought my image also fits that same exact thing, and I feel free and liberated through this experience. So why not release it to the world and show all sides of me, literally?”
Hernandez learned how to record and produce his own music during the pandemic, using programs like Splice, Ableton, Pro Tools and Garageband. He was mostly going into the studio for cathartic, therapeutic purposes, and didn’t have any initial plans to release a project.
“I was just dropping lyrics and vocals in my microphone,” Hernandez says. “And then. when I got to Vegas, I was just inspired by my sexual nature and being naked on stage. I was finally, finally thinking ‘Wow, you look really good after this fitness journey, you should be proud of yourself.’ The content [of the EP] changed a little bit. I started writing about how it feels being an adult gay male, how it feels during sex and how it feels with my anxiety.”
David Hernandez #NSFW
Although the recurring theme of Hernandez’s new projects is sexual liberation, the singer does take time to address the haters.
On Don’t @ Me’s title track, Hernandez claps back at people who have tried to hinder his success. For the first time, he addresses the naysayers who dragged his name through the mud during his 2008 stint on American Idol.
The song opens with a Fox News sound clip of an anchor revealing news of a pre-Idol Hernandez working at a male strip club. “Don’t @ Me” then continues with Hernandez “speak-singing” the lyrics “see my ass on Instagram, see my dick on OnlyFans.”
“I'm just going to place now like where not only have I like forgiven the people that dragged me, like Perez Hilton, and all the news outlets, and stuff like that,” Hernandez says, “but I've moved on from that, and I wanted to the EP to be the bookend for all of that. And I think you'll hear that. The EP, just like the book, is about liberation, self-expression and freedom.”
Drag DJ-production Duo JAWBREAKERS Release Debut Music Video - "Boyfriend"
Kali Forni-Kate and Sabrina Babyslut are drag producer/DJs! Together, they are known as the Jawbreakers. In their first EP, Just A Taste - being released through Vicious Recordings, the label that discovered Avicii when he was a teenager, and released his first ten records - the duo dish out delicious dance, pop and tech house songs that reflect on their live DJ shows. "Boyfriend," the EP’s first single, is out now. It’s video emphasizes how Kali and Sabrina not only DJ their parties, they are their parties.
Just A Taste, the debut EP from the drag-duo DJ-production team known as Jawbreakers, dishes out dance, pop and tech house songs suitable for clubs and partygoers at home enjoying a late-night kiki. “The EP is a sampling platter of beats with something for everyone,” says Kali Forni-Kate of Jawbreakers. “It’s Just A Taste, because there is 100% more to come,” adds her collaborator, Sabrina Babyslut. With songs like “This Is Dirty” and “Ciao Bella,” the EP reflects the group’s live DJ shows that emphasize how Jawbreakers are not only playing the party, they are the party. "Boyfriend," the EP’s first release, is a modern-day remake of Ashlee Simpson’s 2005 hit that chronicled her stealing Wilmer Valderrama from Lindsay Lohan. The Jawbreaker version features vocals from Amunda (formerly from Operator Please). Its accompanying music video, directed by Nyssa Mitchell, conceptualized by Jawbreakers with editing and FX by Zachary McSweeney, is a technicolor dream, with Kali and Sabrina dressed in eye-catching lewks. The Just A Taste EP is being distributed through Extrovert Music, a division of Vicious Recordings, and will be available on Apple Music, Spotify and all digital platforms on April 1. Jawbreaker’s “Boyfriend” music video is available on YouTube.
Kali and Sabrina first met in 2016, performing in a Britney Spears tribute show in Melbourne. They immediately clicked as both came from similar middle-class, nuclear family backgrounds, discovered drag via their passions for musical theatre, and began their individual adventures into the art form after high school. When they learned of their shared interest in music production, they decided to join forces as a DJ duo. They bought a mixer and six months later they were in business.
“The biggest hurdle was deciding who stands where in the booth,” Kali explains. “Sabrina is left-handed and I’m right. We had to fight over who uses the left and right DJ decks. Swapping throws off our groove!”
Their Jawbreakers name harkens back to the iconic candy from their childhoods and the 1998 teen film that starred Rose McGowan, Rebecca Gayheart and Julie Benz as the “it” girl clique who reign supreme in their high school. “It’s a reflection on how the drag that we do is heavily inspired by pop culture,” Kali continues. “Like the girls in the movie, we dress to have fun and through the music we play and the energy that we exude, it makes everyone want to party with us!”
The duo has already headlined several international festivals including Sydney Mardi Gras and Milkshake Festival in Netherlands. Their next big gig will be Summer Camp Festival where they will perform alongside Years and Years, Big Freedia and The Veronicas. They are also slated to perform the next Goodlife U18 event, as well as Adelaide Festival, St Kilda Festival and Melbourne Pride.
“We have been keeping an eye on Jawbreakers for several years,” says Damien Platt of Extrovert Music, a division of Vicious Recordings, the label that discovered Avicii when he was a teenager, and released his first ten records. “When Kali and Sabrina presented us with demos of the EP, we were instantly fans of the music. It's fun, its camp and its quality music.”
Jawbreakers is not Extrovert Music’s first foray into gay dance floor music. Label co-founder Andy Van, of the band Madison Avenue, had a #1 dance anthem with “Don’t Call Me Baby”. More recently, Sgt Slick’s recut of “Gimme! Gimme! Gimme!” went gold and has become a major queer anthem. “Extrovert Music is focusing on dance pop/disco/commercial/cross over releases,” Platt continues. “A majority of our new signings and existing roster who identify as LGBTQIA+ are producing this sound.”
While Jawbreakers’ unique look has helped attract attention to their work, Sabrina admits that performing as hyper feminine drag artists has made it harder for fans and the music industry to take the duo seriously. “We’ve had straight DJs hit on us and others wonder who the random chicks were in the booth,” she explains. “But way more people have shown their support and their desire to see us succeed.”
“We’re lucky to live in an era when queer culture is proving that we can be a force in any and every industry,” Kali adds. “Never underestimate what a queen can achieve. It only makes us work harder.”
Jawbreakers’ “Just A Taste” is being distributed through Extrovert Music and will be available on Apple Music, Spotify and all digital platforms. The “Boyfriend” video is available now on YouTube. Follow on Instagram @ JawbreakersDJ
Unleashed LGBTQ to Cover QUEER Experience at SXSW 2022
SXSW 2019
Live events are back and I have to say, few events have me pumped like the return of SXSW.
Every year industry professionals from around the globe meet in Austin Texas to learn about the latest in a variety of industries. While focus for this groundbreaking event was initially centered around music and film, we have seen SXSW expand, every year, into more and more fields and industries— covering topics that include everything from finance to transportation and even oil and gas. If it’s new and innovative, South by is where you’ll find it. This 9-day conference and festival offers insight on the latest in film, music, tech and more through screenings, panels and showcases. There’s endless branded activations and art installations. It’s experiential marketing at its finest.
However, that hasn’t been the case, at least for the last two years.

The only shutdown I like is after I read a bitch— but with the rollout of vaccines, new guidelines, and recent drops in Covid-19 cases, group gatherings of this scale are once again possible. People are doing their part and it shows. To that I say, Yasssssss!!!
This light at the end of the tunnel is making it possible for one of the largest and most prestigious gatherings of talent and industry professionals to reconnect once again. (Missed y'all!)

When attending SXSW, it's not uncommon to rub shoulders with movers and shakers, even high-profile celebs… But what or who’s gonna be the next big thing is what I find most fascinating. Ambition and opportunity sets the scene.
You can be drinking a beer with the next tech millionaire or attending the show of the next rock band who will one day grace covers of magazines. We all love a good success story. Seems anything’s possible and I’m here for it!
So what’s to be said about LGBTQ inclusion at SXSW?

In the past we have seen queer artists, performers, speakers, and panelists offer insight into our unique culture. as well as LGBTQ icons and allies showing support with important, thought provoking messages through powerful performances, screenings, keynotes and panels.
Film critic and contributing writer Arnold Jones called SXSW “An intoxicating crossroads of bohemianism and commerce, SXSW embraced alternative and queer in its many definitions– quirky, cool, campy.”

Since its inception, SXSW, has been a pioneer of inclusion, reaching across cultural divides. These opportunities have provided platforms for under-represented individuals (like LGBTQ and POC) to connect with decision makers that can elevate careers to new heights.

Gender-Bending Queer Artist ALONE Releases “Everything”, An Ode to His Trans Siblings
Debut Single Declares “Opulence is a State of Mind”
“Everything”, the debut single from the gender-bending Queer artist ALONE, pays homage to the shiny, brassy days of Motown while also serving as an affirming ode to the Transgender Community who continue to enrich our world while battling tremendous negativity. “I want my siblings to know that they are blessed, loved and perfect just the way they are,” says ALONE, who’s own lewk blends disco-rock camp fierceness with svelte Hollywood glamour silhouettes. He wrote, composed, and arranged the soulful RnB Pop track, and topped it off with soaring falsetto vocals brimming with joy fitting for a true anthem. The song was recorded in New York City with a full live band on all-analog equipment. “It is meant to be a bright and feel-good reminder that you already have everything you need to be happy and thrive,” he explains. ALONE’s “Everything” is available now on Apple Music, Spotify and all digital platforms. Its music video is available on YouTube.
“Everything” started as a love song to a guy I was dating who had a fabulous life but couldn't stop complaining about everything,” ALONE recalls from his NYC home. “I wrote the song to try to convince him to see how good he had it and help him cultivate a spirit of gratitude.”
During the production of the song, the message grew larger than a simple love song. It became a proclamation for all to appreciate life regardless of unfavorable circumstances. "Your joy is not dependent on external factors," ALONE urges. "Right now, just as you are, you are already as good, as well and as complete as anyone can ever hope to be — and therefore you are already, in fact, everything."
“I wrote the lyric, ‘Opulence is a state of mind,’ while sunbathing on the crumbling roof of an old house I was living in,” he continues. “At the time, I was barely making rent and struggling to find work and ways to bring my music to life. I laid down a patch of Astro turf on that hot tar, covered it with a piece of leopard fabric, treated myself to a box of strawberries and felt like royalty.”
In the song’s music video, ALONE spotlights an all Trans and Gender Non-Conforming cast. “I wanted to assure the Trans and Queer youth out there that there is a family here for them and that they are beautiful, powerful and worthy,” he says. He enlisted some of the leading activists in the Black Trans Lives Matter Movement including Tahtianna Fermin, founder of Bridges 4 Life, an organization that serves Trans youth in the foster care system; Danni Gucci, founder of the #Wontberased campaign for Trans visibility; and Suburbia, a drag queen who has been featured on HBO Max’s And Just Like That, and is the founder of the POC Collective.
ALONE was born Alon and raised in Israel, in a small coastal town called Herzliya. His father died in military action when he was three and a half years old. He grew up in a household of women, with only his mom and sister. His musical influences were Prince, Grace Jones, George Michael and Sylvester. “Growing up as a Queer kid who never fully fit in anywhere, seeing a Queer artist like Sylvester was a beacon of hope,” ALONE reflects. “It made me feel like I wasn't alone, like there was a future for me and that there were others out there like me.”
Upon moving to New York City, Alon changed his name to ALONE to reclaim the word; empowering its meaning from something sad and scary to independent and in control. “Being alone is one thing everyone experiences from time to time. There is beauty and strength-building in it. The binary concept that being alone is bad and being together is good is false. Both are equally important to our growth and well-being.”
ALONE’s next single, "Fine", is currently in production and scheduled to be released on April 8th with an accompanying music video. A sultry tribute to homo- and pansexual attraction, it pays homage to 80s rock strip songs while challenging the prevalent notions of sexuality and gender.
ALONE’s “Everything” is available now on Apple Music, Spotify and all digital platforms. Its music video is available on YouTube. Visit his website and follow ALONE on Instagram @ TogethALONE.
In Todrick We Trust- Exclusive Interview with Texas' Own Todrick Hall
Interview by Wesley Smoot
Todrick Hall, is an actor, singer, dancer, producer, choreographer, broadway star and internet sensation… you may have heard of him. With all of those credits under his belt, he’s hard to miss. This trailblazing talent has given audiences countless YouTube videos, from hilarious parodies to top-notch original tracks with some of the best beats, lyrics, and choreography on the web. We got the chance to sit down with Todrick before his performance at the 40th Annual Black Tie Dinner to spill the tea and even snap some photos of this LGBTQ living legend. Pinkies up, now sip!

Weslo: Todrick, how are you today?
Todrick Hall: I’m fantastic. There’s no place like home. I’m so happy to be back in Texas. I don’t get to spend enough time here, so this is always a treat for me.
Weslo: Fabulous, tonight you’ll be performing in Dallas, Texas at the 40th annual Black Tie Dinner. You’re no stranger to North Texas. Can you tell us about growing up in the area? Did it have any affect on your music or style?
Todrick Hall: I think that every single day I realize just how much I’ve been affected by growing up in Texas, especially growing up in the middle of the bible belt. I claim the Dallas/Fort Worth area to be my hometown but I’m actually from the panhandle of Texas in Plainview which is a tiny town sandwiched between Lubbock and Amarillo. Growing up there, it was very conservative, people were very closed minded.. but I didn’t mind it. I was an only child that had a mom who embraced every part of me, even the quirky odd parts. Growing up I did ballet, theatre and was obsessed with all things Disney or anything musical based, so it was an interesting journey. As I grow older and look back on those experiences I appreciate every moment. Much like the butterfly effect, it has worked to make me the person I am today as an artist and a human being.

Weslo: I love that. Many artists like yourself who achieve this level of success end up in Los Angeles. Why do you think it’s so important to return to your old stomping grounds for events like Black Tie Dinner?
Todrick Hall: For me specifically, for events like Black Tie Dinner and for my tours, I always make sure I make stops in Dallas and do a few other Texas dates around my Dallas date because there are so many kids who should have access to these shows. When you live in a huge metropolitan city like New York, LA, Chicago, Vegas.. you can sometimes forget there are people still living in a bubble of sorts. While that bubble is more progressive than it was when I was growing up here, it is still insane to hear the stories of young queer kids growing up in this area. So everytime I come home it really hits me how much work we’ve done- but also how much more we need to do. There are so many homeless LGBTQ youth. There are kids who want to be performers and entertainers on Broadway. They want to be on television and don’t have parents supporting them, so I’m happy Black Tie is doing what they’re doing in Texas. It’s always bigger and better. It’s one of the biggest and best LGBTQ events in the world and it's right here in my hometown… so when I get asked to come to perform it’s really a no brainer.
Weslo: You started as a YouTube star, became a breakout performer on American Idol, you made a name for yourself on Broadway, and you even had a show on MTV… you seem to be very much a self-made man. Can you speak on your drive and commitment in your early years that got you where you are today?
Todrick Hall: I have to give credit where credit is due. My dance teacher Yvonne Racz was the artistic director at Ballet Lubbock. She was so strict, or what I thought was “so strict”. She prepared me for what to expect in the business. She brought this energy you would find in New York to a small town in Lubbock and raised me with all of the work ethic that I needed to get to the point I’m at now. I think a lot of people go out to the big cities to make a name for themselves but I think it’s really important to remember where you come from and use that foundation to find your voice. Dallas also seems to be a place where theatre, film and television are continuing to expand, giving new artists the opportunity to grow here before they venture out. With all that said, I think talent is important, but it’s nothing without hard work.

Weslo: I completely agree. So, I'm obsessed with your latest video It’s Raining Fellas… Looking back, you started with videos at McDonald’s Drive thrus and Target flash mobs, which while lacking in production value, were all still amazing videos... You now have so many resources to make quality content… What do you miss about those old days? Do you have a favorite of your older youtube videos?
Todrick Hall: Definitely the McDonalds video, my video Beauty and the Beat was so funny, I’m such a huge Disney fan and the energy in the room when me and my fellow friends, all POC’s created it, it was the funniest day ever. The Target flash mob was fun but scary. We didn’t have permits or even permission. I think that’s when things were the most fun, when we were stealing shots everywhere. Also being a social media influencer at that time was such an unknown, uncharted territory for so many people. There really weren’t any ground rules for when someone comes into a place to shoot a viral video. Luckily, it ended up working in my favor and a lot of those opportunities have come back. With Target, we’ve got to work with them and shoot in the store but this time without the adrenaline rush and trying to steal shots. Hahahaha… But those are the first three that come to mind. I will say my video for It gets Better definitely changed my life. I wrote that song because of the Trevor Project and all of the lives lost to suicide from bullying at school or at home. I put that song on iTunes. It was the first song I ever sold. That song resonated with so many people that in the first year I was living in LA, my rent was paid from the downloads and streams of that song specifically. So that song saved a lot of people’s lives, changed a lot of people’s lives, and helped me establish myself to where I could work on my passion full-time.
Weslo: Wow, incredible work. So, I was at a Dallas Cowboys game at AT&T Stadium and boom… Nails, Hair, Hips, Heels,... comes on. I see thousands of people moving, just feeling your music. For queer artists like yourself, like Lil Nas X, there seems to be huge waves being made in places that would seem almost unexpected to some. Do you see real progress in how queer music is being accepted in the mainstream. Or in places you wouldn’t expect like football games in Texas?
Todrick Hall: I would be lying if I said that we haven’t made a lot of progress, but in 2021 I haven’t heard a man sing a pronoun related to someone of the same sex. I think there’s been a lot of advancements. I’m so grateful Lil Nas X exists but I want there to be representation on the radio of simple, unapologetic love songs from one man to another using the pronouns, him/his. I think that would shed a lot of light on where we are, what cities would play it, which wouldn’t, where a song like that would chart… I think it would be groundbreaking. As queer people, we’ve got used to being underrepresented and don’t expect that from the radio or mainstream music. I want to start hearing our love songs. I would like when I get married, I don’t have to weed through every song that specifically mentions the pronoun of the person I’m in love with… that I will have a few options of songs that I can play at my wedding that feel created and catered to me.

Weslo: You’ve toured the world with shows like Straight Outta Oz sharing your message of fierce, unapologetic queer realness.... What was it like in cities that come across as less accepting of the LGBTQ community? Did you ever experience any issues with homophobia while touring?
Todrick Hall: Absolutely, even sometimes in Texas. In San Antonio we were in a restaurant and a lady started screaming slurs. I always try to go by the Michelle Obama book of rules, when they go low we go high. I was very proud of how my team, my dancers, my crew, and how everyone handled it. Still, it was very eye opening. We don’t really experience that kind of negativity or discrimination in LA as we might when we’re on tour. Sometimes it can be an unfortunate wake-up call. But really it’s not just in America, we tour all over the world. We’re in Australia, New Zealand, all over Europe and even Asia... We still experience that type of discrimination sometimes differing from city to city. I have so many kids sending me messages and emails, direct messages and tweets saying that their parents won’t let them come support a gay black man. They won’t buy them a ticket or allow them to leave the house. We have had people picket and even riot outside our shows before. It’s been an insane experience but it’s something that reminds me and the team why we're doing what we’re doing. It’s become much bigger than making a fun video for people to dance to. Myself and other queer artists are showing people who really need it that you can be a gay, successful, proud artist who is celebrated is not only important but necessary.
Weslo: In the song FAG, you throw shade on haters who had issues with you being your authentic gay self growing up. Only by being true to yourself have you been able to reach this level of success. Can you speak on why being yourself is so important? Especially for the youngsters out there…
Todrick Hall: I had the privilege of playing the role my mentor Billy Porter played, which was Lola for Kinky Boots on Broadway. It was a life-changing chapter in my life. There’s a line in that show that says, Be yourself, everyone else is already taken. When I was learning the lines, I was basically trying to put them in my memory like a computer chip and then one day I said the line and it clicked. That one line had so much power to me. I think we as humans are taught to conform but I think that embracing the things that make you different was hard for me, but everytime I did it, it’s what helped me stand out.
Weslo: You have worked with so much celebrity talent including Ru Paul and a myriad of fabulous queens… Spill the tea..., if you could collaborate with any musical artist, who would it be?
Todrick Hall: I’ve worked with Beyonce already but she’ll always be at the top of my list. I love Cardi B, I think she’s hilarious. I've loved Nicky Minaj since Super Bass and Starship days so I’d love to work with her. I just think she’s iconic and no one can do what she does. I would love to do a song with Taylor Swift even though we’re really great friends. I hope one day it makes sense for us to do a song together that only she and I can do. That would be really fun. I’m a huge Nicole Richie fan, I know she doesn’t do music, I’ve never met her. She’s probably the one person on the planet I would fangirl over if I met her.

Weslo: Any new music coming out we Should be looking out for? I’m already excited about The Femuline Tour.
Todrick Hall: I have been in the studio non-stop making bops for my fans. I can say without a shadow of a doubt that next year, 2022 will be the most music and visuals people have ever gotten from me as far as personal music as an artist. I’m really excited about the next chapter and era of Todrick and I think next year is going to be a huge game changer for me and my team.
