Transcript

00:00I'm Rebecca, this is Trixie, we're gonna get ready.

00:03Hell yeah.

00:04Okay, I have a YouTube voice, which I've been told is a lot louder than my real voice.

00:17That's okay.

00:18You work in dance music, you're probably half hearing gone by now already, so.

00:21Yes, definitely.

00:22The tinnitus is strong.

00:23Hi, it's Trixie.

00:24Obviously, I don't know, I have nothing to say, you guys, Rebecca's here.

00:28Rebecca Black is in the studio and she came all by herself with her makeup bag.

00:32It's just us, Brandon, and Nick, and we're gonna get show ready because Rebecca has a

00:37tour coming.

00:38True.

00:39I don't know why I'm like in a titty.

00:40It's like, I've got this little, you can't really see, but I've got this like tight little

00:42v-neck.

00:43I feel very like Latina today.

00:44We can, I don't want to get demonetized, but I think we can all see what's going on with

00:48your situation.

00:49Okay.

00:50Last time I met you, I was in drag, I think, so I'm used to everybody being tiny.

00:55Oh.

00:56I don't think we've ever spoken out of drag.

00:59Right.

01:00Everybody's small to me, but today out of drag, I'm like, you really are a petite gal.

01:03Me?

01:04Yeah.

01:05Oh my God.

01:07You are all beautiful hair and breasts.

01:08Hair, lips, and breasts, that's what I like to be.

01:12So I got to glue my eyebrows down and we're going to be right back.

01:15Today's video is sponsored by BetterHelp.

01:17Look at me.

01:21The picture of mental health, and I could have never done it without the benefits of

01:24talk therapy.

01:25As you guys know, I live on the road, I live in hotels, and it's really nice to be able

01:29to get consistent care with the same therapist, no matter where on the planet I am.

01:34Whether it's sometimes I'm meeting after dinner, sometimes I'm meeting super early, first thing

01:37in the morning, and if I can't do a video chat, like I'm headed to Australia, I know

01:41I can do like a voice check-in, which is sometimes easier.

01:43Just basically walk and talk phone call.

01:45I have learned that if I think I'm cool and I like take a break from talk therapy, a few

01:51weeks ago go by and I'm like, wow, everything's starting to really get me.

01:55So I've found for me with BetterHelp, being able to easily, consistently get care has

02:00been really beneficial.

02:02You can access your therapist from phone, tablet, everything but basic mind ESP.

02:07You can contact your therapist, and I love it because you can find a therapist who not

02:10just is open to what you want to talk about, but maybe even specializes in it.

02:14The other thing I like about it is you can switch therapists at any time for any reason.

02:19Whether you just don't like the vibe or the schedule doesn't work out or really no reason,

02:23you could just not feel it and switch.

02:25And it's like no harm, no foul, because you, your matchmaking with therapy is as important

02:30as the quality of therapy itself.

02:31It has to be the right help from the right person.

02:34Go to betterhelp.com slash Trixie Mattel for a little discount on your first month of BetterHelp.

02:39BetterHelp helped me crawl out of the deepest hole of my life, and I would not be here so

02:43confident and beautiful without it.

02:45Thank you, BetterHelp, and thank you for sponsoring this video.

02:48We're doing this like Trixie magic eight ball, so I want to see how the look's gonna go.

02:51Oh my god, wait, roll it for yourself and then I'll do it.

02:54I have no plan other than I just want to look really pretty because I'm so happy you're here.

02:57Oh my god, I also want to look gorgeous.

02:59It says ask Katya.

03:00Ask Katya?

03:01Should we call?

03:02No, no, she won't pick up.

03:04On a day off, even when I call her, she's like, hello?

03:07Yeah.

03:08I wanted to do like a gorgeous kind of like messy glitter girl vibe.

03:16Oh, I like that.

03:16Sure, gal.

03:17Sure, gal.

03:18Okay, great.

03:19Wow.

03:20If I be honest with you guys, this was specifically, we call it the hate ball because it's mostly

03:23negative answers.

03:24So if you get a yes, I think that means like, yes.

03:27Like, yes.

03:28Yeah.

03:29It's very, it's yeah.

03:30Mostly it's like, no, shut up, ugly.

03:31You're bald.

03:32And then once in a while, it's like, go ahead, girl.

03:33Maybe you have good karma.

03:34I, I try.

03:35Well, karma's a bitch.

03:36Karma is a bitch.

03:37I should've known better.

03:38You should've known better.

03:39Hi, Jojo.

03:40If you're, I don't know if she watches my videos.

03:41I know she's a Trixie supporter.

03:42I feel like a reacher.

03:45She did Solid Pink Disco in Central Park last year and she was amazing.

03:49Really?

03:50Yes.

03:51Was it karma?

03:52Did she do karma?

03:53Oh, yes.

03:54Wow.

03:55She drank the alcohol on the stage.

03:56I live for that.

03:58Like, and I live for like the mystery of like, is it real alcohol or no?

04:02Did you get to smell?

04:03The thing is, I believe women.

04:04And if you bring out the booze bottle, you know, to me, there's something very exciting

04:08about someone being freshly like 21 being like, that's right, I'm drinking.

04:15It's a little like being 16 to be like, did you need a ride in my car?

04:17I mean, everyone does it.

04:18But when I was 21, I was like, here's my card.

04:21Right.

04:22I found that when I turned 21, people stopped asking me for the card and I'd be like, hello.

04:26So I, before I turned 21, my fake ID was a woman who was, I am pretty sure 37 years old

04:33at the time.

04:34She was also not, we were not in the same race.

04:36I used her everywhere and never once did anyone ever take it away from me.

04:39So I was passing.

04:40Passing as what?

04:41A counterfeit liar?

04:42Passing as what?

04:43A counterfeit liar?

04:44At 37.

04:45Yeah.

04:46At 37.

04:47My roommate Liz in college, she was blonde.

04:48Her fake ID was a substantially older Asian woman.

04:51Yeah.

04:52And people would just look at the ID and say yes.

04:53Yeah.

04:54There was one, one like beer only queer bar in Pittsburgh where they tried to test me,

04:59but I knew every piece of information on that card.

05:01You did?

05:02I knew her.

05:03She was a tourist.

05:04Wait, was that a real ID?

05:05Yeah.

05:06It was a real ID.

05:07I also wonder like if she knew.

05:08What if she's working the door one day, girl?

05:09And she goes, um, excuse me.

05:12Also, can I state the obvious?

05:13Um, didn't people go, but aren't you Rebecca Black?

05:16And then what do you do?

05:17Pick a new club?

05:18Like.

05:19Damn.

05:20No.

05:21That never happened to me.

05:22I mostly will get like, did we go to high school together?

05:24Or like, you look so familiar or like people can't totally place it.

05:30Sure.

05:31I think this year was the first year that I've gotten more kind of like, or at least

05:34first year in a while where people are like, oh, hey, definitely.

05:37I saw your boiler room or I saw your blah, blah, blah.

05:39I did see the boiler room.

05:40It was amazing.

05:43It was amazing.

05:44I hadn't seen a full set of yours.

05:45Obviously I'd seen you online.

05:46It didn't really exist.

05:47It didn't exist.

05:48My God.

05:49Can you tell me about that?

05:50Cause you know, that's like one of my dreams.

05:51Was it hot?

05:52It was.

05:53I honestly wasn't really sweating.

05:54You didn't look sweaty.

05:55And it kind of pissed me off.

05:56I was like, I'm trying to think back.

05:57Well, it was freezing in that warehouse.

05:59It was also like 6 p.m.

06:01Isn't that crazy?

06:02That boiler room went from like 4 p.m.

06:04I remember it was over by nine, like the last one was over.

06:06So I didn't even know if people were going to show up.

06:08It also, I wasn't going to record that set because I was just going to say, cause boiler

06:13room same for me.

06:14It's been like, like a bucket list moment.

06:16Of course.

06:17For years.

06:18I've been such a fan of electronic music.

06:20I've also been DJing for like six years.

06:23And I randomly got an offer to do an after party in Chicago in June.

06:26And I was like, what?

06:27What do you mean?

06:28Why am I doing this?

06:29And I did that.

06:30And it was great.

06:31It was like a boiler room after party for the Chicago boiler room.

06:32And then a few months later, they asked me to do DC and I was just so nervous about it.

06:37I was like, no, I'm actually okay.

06:39I don't want to record this one.

06:41I just want to like get in there and like see the vibe.

06:43And then I played the set and I had so much fun and I was like, I should have recorded

06:48that.

06:49And then they haven't recorded it anyway.

06:50So.

06:51Oh, so you didn't know?

06:52Well, I noticed as I was like, as I was doing it, I'm like, I know what a camera recording

06:56looks like.

06:57That camera is definitely on when it's not supposed to be.

06:59Cause they make it a thing where they're like, you have to tell us like a month in advance

07:02if you're doing this or not.

07:03I was just going to say, cause DJs, at least in my experience are very like, don't make

07:07me sing.

07:08Don't.

07:09I don't know if I can.

07:10Should I, should I do a set?

07:11I don't know.

07:12If it's a really important thing, I will program every song in the order I will play it.

07:16Really?

07:17Yes.

07:18Really?

07:19Yes.

07:20I didn't do that for Boiler Room.

07:21If it's something big, like solid pick disco or something, I need to know, especially

07:22if I'm in drag.

07:23I need to know generally.

07:24Yeah.

07:25And I'm going to play about 70% of what I planned.

07:28Really?

07:29Yeah.

07:30Normally before a set, I'll like, maybe like that week I'll, you know, do like a, kind

07:34of like a trial run.

07:35I'll download all my new music.

07:36I'll test it out, make sure everything works, you know, get on a CDJ and just like feel

07:39it out.

07:40And I usually know my like first, second, third song, usually always the first, I always

07:43know what my first song is.

07:44I think that's important.

07:45Boiler Room, because I wasn't going to film it, I was like, I'm just going to have fun.

07:50So I just like showed up on the day and like did a little sound check.

07:53And I remember asking one of the people there, I'm like, should I do this song or should

07:56I do this Hannah Montana remix?

07:58And they were like, do the Hannah Montana remix.

08:00It just set the vibe.

08:01Of course.

08:02For the whole thing.

08:03And then I just kind of like went from there.

08:06And also the CDJs were shaking.

08:08They were like not properly secured.

08:10And they told me there would be only like four or five people on the platform with me

08:14because you know, they have, they always have like.

08:15Girl, they were right in there.

08:17Literally like the CDJs were at this table and they were like putting their arms over

08:20the table and like trying to request songs.

08:23I don't get down with that.

08:24I was like, guys!

08:25Did someone offer me poppers?

08:26I was like, it's 6pm.

08:28No!

08:29It was fun though.

08:30I was like, I felt really happy to be in a crowd of my, my people.

08:33Because that's like.

08:34For sure.

08:35I feel like when I've like done clubs in LA over the last few years.

08:38I will say you are obviously like, I mean, everyone loves you.

08:41You're so gorgeous.

08:42So gifted.

08:43You can do everything.

08:44You probably do inspire.

08:45Like I watch your Boiler Room set and I usually skip around.

08:47The only ones I've watched in entirety, Honey Dijon.

08:50Whoa.

08:51Amazing.

08:52You.

08:53And like, if it's a girl especially or someone I love, I will watch all of it.

08:56Yours too.

08:57It started with them.

08:58It started with that song.

08:59It's like, what is that first song you played in that set?

09:00Well, I played this Hannah Montana remix.

09:02Yes.

09:03And it was like, no, like 150 BPM.

09:05Everybody makes mistakes.

09:06Everybody makes mistakes.

09:07Boom, boom, boom, boom.

09:08Cause I just, I like to start like we're in, I will only start 140 and above.

09:14You do?

09:15No lube.

09:16She goes straight in.

09:17No.

09:18Where if I'm coming on, because I, and this is how I treat my shows.

09:20This is how I treat everyone.

09:21I'm like, we're locking in first track.

09:24And if you can't keep up, get out, get out now because we're going up.

09:27That's what would, if I were watching someone DJ, especially someone who I'm like, she DJs?

09:33Like, that's fun for me.

09:34I remember once talking to like my choreographer, Richie, when he was talking about doing the

09:37chromatic tour with Gog and they started that.

09:40Miss Gaga.

09:41Do you love Gaga?

09:42I mean, that's my mommy.

09:43Yeah.

09:44Love.

09:45Gaga, Lana, Beyonce.

09:46Those are like my girls that I like.

09:48I'm tapped in.

09:49I have this remix of summertime sadness that I, that's like a disco version.

09:53And when it kicks, I got my red dress on tonight.

09:56People go from whatever version of drunk they were.

09:58It's almost like they let the alcohol take their body.

10:01People start getting so nasty to that song.

10:03Yeah.

10:04I do love a, like a Lana Del Rey remix.

10:05I played a Lana remix.

10:06I played like a Mariner's apartment complex.

10:08Again, like very fast techno remix.

10:10And it's so funny rewatching that Boiler Room set because I'm watching like these like frat

10:15bros and this like blonde queen who looks straight out of a sorority, like just like

10:19getting their lives.

10:20I love this move.

10:21The church move.

10:22Yeah.

10:23Oh yeah.

10:24No, they love this.

10:25They love a little like flick.

10:26The straight people.

10:27The girls love this.

10:28And the girls love this.

10:29And the guys love this.

10:31Honestly, I'm doing this.

10:32Of course.

10:33The guys love...

10:34It's a lot of this.

10:35It's a lot of that.

10:36And it's a lot of like push.

10:37Yeah.

10:38You're doing pushing.

10:39Yes.

10:40There's a lot of pushing.

10:41Yeah.

10:42What's your favorite Lana song?

10:43Favorite Lana song?

10:44This always changes.

10:45Right now, for me, I'm very into Cinnamon Girl.

10:47I'm very into like Norman fucking Rockwell, that era.

10:49Of course.

10:50Obviously.

10:51I'm also very into Brooklyn Baby from Ultraviolence.

10:53Yes.

10:54I...

10:55I will always love video games.

10:56I just think it is everything.

10:57It is one of the best songs ever.

10:58I will always love radio.

10:59Yeah.

11:01Yes.

11:02I will always...

11:03I will always love it.

11:04Lana has like your heart songs, and she has like her slut songs.

11:10And I love Lana as a slut.

11:11We have the same birthday, by the way.

11:13So she's my twin.

11:14That's the huge slut birthday.

11:15The summer solstice.

11:16It is the huge slut birthday.

11:17She has this unreleased song called Ride In with A$AP Rocky, and it's so sexy and hot.

11:23I could listen to that any day.

11:24Have you ever had like a profound slut era yourself in your real life?

11:27Yep.

11:28I think I'm in it right now.

11:30Whoa.

11:31That's why you want to do slutty club makeup.

11:32She says, I have the whole day available.

11:33I'm not doing anything.

11:34Honestly, what happened is this project that I'm about to release.

11:35I swear this is like not me trying to plug it.

11:36Even though I can.

11:37But you should.

11:38You should.

11:39But I finished it at the beginning of summer.

11:40And then I was kind of stuck.

11:41Like I was stuck for a period of time where like I wasn't able to really work on the visuals.

11:42It was just kind of like sitting done.

11:43And I had so much free time for the first time in the summer.

11:44And I just poured it up.

11:45Went out.

11:46You did.

11:47I did.

11:48I did.

11:49I did.

11:50I did.

11:51I did.

11:52I did.

11:53I did.

11:54I did.

11:55And I just poured it up.

11:56Went out.

11:57You did.

11:58I did.

11:59Wow.

12:00And it was so fun.

12:01You never had a slot era.

12:02I think an era suggests that it stops and starts.

12:05I'm always open.

12:06Okay.

12:07The world tells me if people who are hot are trying to fuck me, we're probably going to

12:09fuck.

12:10Yeah.

12:11But like if no one's trying to fuck me, I'm not like, please sir.

12:12You know what I mean?

12:15I'm not like panhandling for cockier either.

12:18That's a Lana song.

12:20Panhandling for cockier.

12:21You know, my other favorite is I love Donald under ocean Boulevard.

12:24Yeah.

12:25It makes me cry.

12:26I need like a Trisha cover of that song.

12:29I would, I feel like she would eat that up.

12:30Some songs too, like I almost feel like the vibe

12:32of the people who love that song have ruined it.

12:34Like Ride to me is like, this is every like twink

12:37on the edge and I was never a twink.

12:40And so I want to be a Ride person.

12:41Like I want to ride down the PCH on cocaine

12:44but that's just like not me

12:45because I don't have a license or any cocaine.

12:47For sure.

12:48Yeah.

12:48Ride is for like the VSCO girls and twinks.

12:52Can I say twink?

12:53I think so.

12:54I don't think it's a slur.

12:55I'm not using it as a slur.

12:56No.

12:57I think when I was twink age, I almost was jealous

12:59that I really wasn't that.

13:00I was never really a twink.

13:01I think in the seven layer dip of gayness,

13:04the twinks are kind of like the frosting on everything.

13:07Like the vibe, the forward fashion, the melodrama.

13:11Remember demon twink?

13:12Yes.

13:13I love that.

13:14That was fierce.

13:14I don't want a normal twink.

13:15I want crazy twink.

13:17What do you consider yourself?

13:18Bald, cross-dressing, incredibly bespoke and wealthy.

13:22I don't know.

13:23I don't know.

13:24Daddy Warbucks.

13:25Young Daddy Warbucks.

13:26This just happened.

13:27Oh no.

13:28You guys, this beautiful Pat McGrath blush.

13:30I know.

13:31They always crack.

13:32Let me tell you, I love you, Pat.

13:32They always crack.

13:33With my tour makeup, there's some brands

13:35where I'm just like,

13:36I can't go through that heartbreak again

13:38because that's going to break.

13:39Yeah.

13:40I mean, I have broken many.

13:42I'm also like, I use the same brush for everything.

13:44I don't-

13:45You do?

13:46Yeah.

13:47I don't know what happened.

13:47I used to be so like particular about my makeup

13:49and have like such a,

13:50I feel like I had like technique

13:52and that all disappeared like two years ago.

13:53Interesting.

13:54Honestly, when I started touring

13:55because I just started getting really lazy

13:56and then your brush gets too dirty

13:58and then like, I just, yeah.

13:59I'm feeling real hoary, I think.

14:01So I'm going to do some blues.

14:03Ooh.

14:04I'm going to use my nighttime realness.

14:05Mine is kind of, mine is toured.

14:07Let's just say that.

14:08She's toured.

14:09I really enjoy doing my own makeup for shows

14:12just because it like gives me a reason

14:13to stop talking to people for a second.

14:16Totally.

14:16And like get in the zone.

14:18I close the dressing room door.

14:19I even, my lovely assistant, Brandon,

14:20he even steps out.

14:22I like to be in there.

14:23I like to put on my, the office on my iPhone

14:24and get ready while I watch The Office.

14:26Yeah, I'm usually listening to like some like podcast

14:29or like, I love YouTube.

14:30Like I love listening to YouTube

14:32or watching people on YouTube.

14:33I don't mind if people are in there.

14:34I mostly like, I start doing vocal warmups

14:36and I'm like, you want to get out of here.

14:38Like, you're not going to want to be here for this.

14:39You know?

14:40Yeah, I don't even want to be here for this.

14:41I don't want to be here for anything.

14:43Yeah.

14:43How did you learn to DJ?

14:44I learned to DJ at my ex's house

14:47who lived with a bunch of my friends

14:49and someone just like had a controller

14:50and would like DJ our little like functions.

14:52Little house party.

14:53Yeah, and I was like, that just looks so fun.

14:56And like, we would just kind of like take turns DJing

14:58like little pride parties

15:00or like whatever our little house parties were.

15:01And then I randomly booked a gig

15:03for this party called Candy Pop back in 2018.

15:06And I didn't, I'd never been on CDJs before.

15:09I was just like, I got asked to do it

15:12and I was like, yeah, okay.

15:14Right.

15:15And then I turned up with my computer.

15:17Didn't even know, I think at that point,

15:19like what like really a USB situation was.

15:22Sure.

15:23I just like downloaded Serato

15:24and downloaded a bunch of songs.

15:25And then I was like, why does none of this work?

15:28Damn.

15:28And somehow I got through the set.

15:30I don't know how, I don't know what happened,

15:32but that was like my first gig.

15:33And then after then I was like, well,

15:35I want to do that again, but not freak out.

15:38Yeah.

15:38And so I, that was when I really started to learn.

15:41I like, don't love my computer.

15:43No, I don't want my computer on there.

15:44I like to just bring my little USB with my headphones.

15:46I felt showing up to a club for work

15:49I do too.

15:50I do too.

15:51And my headphones and I'm like, hi.

15:52Yeah.

15:53But I'm not like you.

15:53I'm not, what do you call it?

15:55Hard and fast, right away.

15:56I like to buy the audience a dinner.

15:59Yeah.

15:59I like to slip in one finger.

16:01I like to, you know, flirt.

16:03I'm full fist.

16:03I know you are.

16:05Up the butt.

16:05I know you are,

16:06which was kind of a great vibe for Boiler Room.

16:08I'm just like, also 60 minutes goes really fast.

16:10It flies.

16:11Can I ask like a pop star question?

16:13Yeah.

16:13Do you have like a 30 minute show,

16:15a 45 minute show and your 90 minute show?

16:17Like, do you have those

16:18when you get booked for a pride or something

16:20and they're like, we need you for 30 minutes.

16:21Do you already know like, all right, then it's show B.

16:23That's a good question.

16:24Do you have that all planned

16:25or do you kind of plan it for each thing?

16:26I've really been touring how I have

16:28for the last like few years.

16:29And last year was the first year that I was like,

16:32okay, we need that.

16:33Like we're going to build out the headline,

16:36which will be like 75 minutes.

16:37And then let's rehearse the 45, the 30.

16:41Cause it's usually 30, 45.

16:42Yeah.

16:43Like 60 and 90.

16:44Got it.

16:4590 is long.

16:45So maybe like 75.

16:46That's long.

16:48Especially I, for my last tour was never coming off stage.

16:51Never doing that again.

16:52This year for Solid Pink Disco,

16:53I'm doing three look changes and three like lip sync numbers.

16:58So in addition to playing,

17:00the other DJ will come in and swap for me

17:02when I'm doing the numbers.

17:03And then I have to do quick changes

17:04and come back out and keep playing.

17:06But I really just want to push myself,

17:08but I do worry that I am going to just disappear

17:10into the night under the stress.

17:12I'll just walk off stage and be too hot

17:13and be like, I'm going to go home.

17:14Yeah.

17:16There was one show that I did in Mexico city last year

17:19and the altitude, no one had warned me about the altitude.

17:22What does that feel like?

17:23You just run out of air.

17:25So, and that was a 30 minute set.

17:27So it was a hard one.

17:28I knew when I got there,

17:29people started talking about like,

17:30we should maybe get some like the oxygen, like cans.

17:34You know, they make like spray cans of oxygen

17:36that you like suck up.

17:37They had one backstage and I was like,

17:39I'll be fine.

17:39Like it's a short set, whatever.

17:40I get to the second to last song before Friday.

17:43My like playback guy came into my ear

17:46and was like, you need to get off stage for a second

17:48and like sip some air.

17:49Because I just, you start breathing as you would

17:52and like trying to catch your breath

17:53and there's just no air.

17:54Cause it's so thin.

17:55How am I supposed to breathe with no air?

17:57I think that song is about altitude, really.

17:58When you have like a mega global, like known song,

18:03like Friday, I asked Iggy this.

18:05I was like, do you still like singing fancy?

18:07She was like, yes.

18:08I love it.

18:09She was like, as many times as I've done it,

18:11it starts, people flip out and you just buckle in

18:15and you just do it.

18:16And it's, she says she never gets sick of it.

18:17No, I've never, I've always said that it's like

18:19one of the most fun parts of the set

18:21because like you said, like people just lock in.

18:24All I want in my shows is for people to have fun.

18:27That's like why I think I love performing

18:30and DJing and all of that is like,

18:31I am a people pleaser.

18:33Right.

18:34I'm here to make people happy.

18:35And all you want during your shows

18:37is for like a loud cheering thing.

18:40And it's very, I think for a while,

18:42there was a point where I,

18:44I didn't have like the ability

18:45to really even sell many tickets

18:47and the fact that I can like do my stuff,

18:49have people sing those songs

18:50and then have everyone like come together for this song.

18:53It feels very like a little movement, you know?

18:55And also because you were famous young,

18:57you probably actually have that experience

18:59that sounds corny, but is real,

19:01which is like my fans and I have grown up together.

19:03Yeah, definitely.

19:04I mean, I was doing your music when I was 21.

19:07That's insane.

19:08Oh, I was going to bring you a dollar

19:09because I got it, your music on LimeWire.

19:11I want to get right with the Lord.

19:12Wait, was it Friday?

19:14Yeah.

19:15Now this is not to suggest that your song is worth a dollar.

19:17It's just that when I bought it, it was a dollar.

19:19Who gets the money on LimeWire?

19:22It's stolen.

19:23Listen, don't arrest me now,

19:24but I was in middle school, high school,

19:26you know, using LimeWire.

19:28Thank you so much.

19:29I reached a point where I felt very strongly about,

19:32early, I was like 18, I think.

19:33And I was like, we got to stop.

19:35Yes, we can't steal music.

19:36But when I lived in the country and didn't go to stores,

19:39like stealing comedy albums was like my only inlet

19:42to like hearing comedy and like, you know.

19:45So I feel bad.

19:45Like when I met Kathy Griffin, I did the same thing.

19:47I said, I owe you for some specials that I've stolen.

19:50And if I could ever make good on, again, karma.

19:52Karma's a bitch.

19:53Karma's a bitch.

19:54And you should have known better.

19:55Obviously all the drag queens have done Friday

19:56at some point in their life.

19:57You know what the problem with it was?

19:58You can only do it on Fridays.

19:59Well, I'm sorry.

20:00Well, I did Saturday.

20:01Katy Perry has like a song for every holiday.

20:03Right.

20:04She also, have you heard the one,

20:05and I love Katy Perry, That's My Mother.

20:07Of course.

20:08She is so kind.

20:10She now has one for when you wake up in the morning.

20:11She has one for brunches.

20:12♪ I woke up. ♪

20:13That's right.

20:14Where it's like,

20:15♪ It's getting sunny, let's get a bunch of latte. ♪

20:17Pop music.

20:18We're all going to hell for some of this.

20:19I like the stupidity of pop music.

20:21I like the wanton.

20:22Like this song is about brunch and eggs.

20:24Go ahead, bitch.

20:25I like it too.

20:26I mean, I just love,

20:28I think we're in a moment where,

20:30well, I don't even think we're in a moment.

20:32Like pop has always just been about committing.

20:33And if you commit hard enough, of course.

20:36I used to do Katy Perry all the time.

20:37Cause obviously I did Last Friday Night.

20:39I love that song.

20:40That's one of my favorites.

20:41It is a great song.

20:42I mean, I was such a huge,

20:45and still genuinely am like such a big Katy Perry fan.

20:48Like I think she's one of the best pop stars

20:50of our generation.

20:51I remember being like 12 and like listening to Teenage Dream

20:54and that album and listening to Last Friday Night

20:56and getting to do that video was like one of the craziest,

21:00genuinely one of the craziest experiences of my life.

21:02And one of the most like, why am I here?

21:05I have to think of how young you were too.

21:06I was 13.

21:08Also in that video,

21:08the narrative of the video is that you're like

21:10her cool, hot neighbor or whatever

21:12that she wants to hang out with.

21:13Which was very nice.

21:14Whoever thought of that idea, that was very nice to me.

21:17Well, you're someone's cool, hot neighbor now.

21:19I guess so.

21:22I don't know.

21:22I don't know why I feel like that.

21:23So how does this, I just got this eyeliner.

21:25So this is makeup.

21:26No, but.

21:28You know, I don't want to show my age because every,

21:29well, everybody on the internet thinks

21:30I'm a million years old.

21:31How old are you?

21:32I'm 35.

21:33Okay. It's a great age.

21:34One of the boys, that record when it came out,

21:38I had it.

21:38I can, I know every word of that album.

21:40That music on that first record is so good.

21:42That's music.

21:43And when I was a drag queen too,

21:44I used to always do Birthday

21:46because she had good songs for,

21:48if you're a working drag queen.

21:49Every holiday, Firework, Every Pride, like.

21:51Yes.

21:52Also, we haven't mentioned Rebecca and Nick

21:54went to high school together.

21:55Middle school.

21:56Middle school together.

21:57Yeah, we did.

21:58Haven't seen each other since.

21:59When I told him you and I were going to try to work together,

22:01he was like, do you know that I kind of know her?

22:03And I was like, no, you don't.

22:04He does.

22:05Do you know a side of me?

22:07Oh, let's see.

22:08When I was in middle school in musical theater,

22:10that was like when Glee debuted.

22:12Okay.

22:13And I was convinced that like the closer I got

22:16to becoming Rachel Berry in my real life,

22:18like the closer I would get to happiness.

22:21I've never seen that show.

22:22What?

22:23Yeah, I've never seen it.

22:24I just did a show with Amber Riley.

22:26Ooh.

22:27And I said, I have to tell you,

22:28your version of Disco Inferno is so cunty.

22:31She's incredible.

22:32It really is.

22:33The drag queens always do that.

22:34It's the best version of Disco Inferno,

22:35if you guys haven't heard it.

22:36She is an animal.

22:38Glee did do Friday.

22:39Did you know about this?

22:40When it was coming,

22:41did you already know they were doing it?

22:42Yes.

22:43The Katy Perry collab and the Glee collab

22:45hit like a one-two punch,

22:47and it almost knocked me out.

22:48That was happening like whilst all of the other Friday stuff

22:52was happening at the same time.

22:53Yeah.

22:54And that kept me alive.

22:56That sounded a lot darker than I meant it to be.

22:58No, no, no.

22:59It's supposed to be a joke.

23:00It spiritually kept you alive.

23:00It spiritually, like, it made no sense to me

23:04that that was happening at all.

23:05That was the point in my career

23:06where I started to also learn that, like,

23:08so much will get promised to happen,

23:10but nothing actually is real until you see it for yourself.

23:12100%.

23:13And so the Glee thing was one of those,

23:15where I was like,

23:16there's just no way that's actually gonna happen

23:18until I watch that episode.

23:19And I was like...

23:20Oh, yeah.

23:20Ah!

23:21Did you flip out?

23:22Did you cry?

23:23Yeah. Yeah, definitely.

23:24Wow, it's crazy.

23:25You leave like a dust.

23:26I'm sorry.

23:27It's everywhere. No, it's awesome.

23:28I'm sorry. It's awesome.

23:28No, that's why I'm here.

23:29By the way, we have this new Trixie shirt.

23:31The front says Trixie,

23:31and the back is me in dry crotch on the floor of a car.

23:34It's beautiful.

23:36Well, I brought you one.

23:37Really?

23:38Yeah, can I grab it for you?

23:38It's stunning.

23:39Yeah, yeah, yeah.

23:40This is for you.

23:41The women's is a crop,

23:42and it has me in the front.

23:43Because it's not really a crop on you, but...

23:45Well, I can crop it more.

23:46I think we could trust you to make that sluttier.

23:48I love it.

23:49Well, if I did like a little, like,

23:50bolero, it would just be your face.

23:52Oh, yeah.

23:53Watch, you make it a keyhole,

23:53and you cut my face out entirely.

23:55Thank you so much.

23:57Oh, gosh.

23:57This big pop of is good.

23:58This wet and wild.

23:59Really?

24:00Wet and wild has good mascaras.

24:01I don't wanna be...

24:02Really?

24:03I don't wanna, like, end the mascara industry,

24:04but wet and wild has some nice mascaras.

24:06Really?

24:07I'm a MAC makeup girl, or MAC mascara girl.

24:10Which one do you like?

24:11MAC Stack.

24:12That is nice.

24:13Waterproof.

24:14And, you know, contrary to a lot of advertising cosmetics,

24:16it does what it says.

24:17You can just layer it up.

24:18Yeah, and it really,

24:20I have, like, my bottom lashes are long.

24:23Everything transfers,

24:24and it's the only one that doesn't transfer as much.

24:27You know, I went to public school,

24:28but I grew up so deep in the country

24:30that everybody around me was homeschooled.

24:33You've done private, public, and homeschool.

24:36True, true.

24:37What's the best?

24:38Public.

24:39I mean, I just love school,

24:40and, like, I went to a very small, little private school,

24:43mainly because, so my mom was born in Mexico City,

24:46and, like, the education system is just so different,

24:49and I think she was convinced, like, moving here,

24:52that, like, that was just, she just,

24:53my mom is the classic care-so-deeply,

24:56lives-for-her-children vibe,

24:57and so she put us in it,

24:58and I just don't think that my education

25:00was good in a private school,

25:02because the teachers don't really need as much licensing,

25:04is what I found out.

25:05No hate.

25:06Your old teachers are watching this,

25:07and their food just dropped out of their mouth.

25:09No, no hate, no hate, but I don't know.

25:12I look back, and I feel like I learned the most

25:15in public school.

25:16Also, like, I think that public school gave me

25:19the most street smarts,

25:21in terms of, like, dealing with different kinds of people

25:23and different, like, dynamics.

25:25I will say, though, 100% hands down,

25:28the worst was homeschooling.

25:29Like, I'm so scared for all of the COVID kids.

25:33What did you hate about it?

25:34I, so I did homeschooling,

25:36like, the traditional homeschooling,

25:37but I also did online school,

25:39and I feel like I'm gonna go to jail by saying this,

25:41but, like, it is very easy to cheat,

25:44and as a 15-year-old,

25:46who would much rather have spent her time on Tumblr,

25:49finding unreleased Lana Del Rey songs.

25:51Right.

25:52That was much more of a high priority for me.

25:54You just type in the question into Google,

25:56and it tells you the answer,

25:58because there are 100 kids

25:59who have done the same thing before you.

26:00I regret that now, as an adult,

26:03who would like to know things.

26:04To be honest, like, I used to say, like,

26:06stay in school to people as a joke,

26:08and now I'm like, um.

26:08No, definitely stay in school.

26:11Are you doing all these intricate stones?

26:13I am.

26:13I love, I love it. Holy shit.

26:15Are you doing that on the eyelids?

26:17Can you feel them?

26:18No, but they look really good on stage.

26:21They just look like little glitter,

26:23and I love to bedazzle stuff.

26:25They're calming.

26:26I love it.

26:27I actually sat and watched, like,

26:28the entire Martha Stewart documentary,

26:30and A Season of Love is Blind,

26:32and probably some Housewives.

26:34Well, on my album cover, there's, like, a bedazzled block.

26:37A gun? Oh my gosh.

26:38And it took, like, 18 hours straight.

26:41She pulled this out, and I was like, oh, she's diabetic.

26:43I didn't know what this was.

26:44I was like, you know, I don't know.

26:45I love them.

26:46These are tinier than I thought they'd be.

26:47I have even tinier ones, which is crazy.

26:49Those are, girl.

26:50But they're beautiful.

26:51I love you putting on a .01 millimeter stone,

26:55and then playing these, like, big outdoor venues.

26:56Like, girl, nobody's gonna see that speck.

26:57Maybe that's a speck.

26:58But it just looks like glitter.

27:00Like, it just looks like little bits.

27:01It does. It does.

27:02I'm gonna do some hotline.

27:03I usually do this off camera,

27:04but I'm having a great time talking to you, so.

27:06Okay.

27:06I haven't said anything about what I'm doing.

27:07I know, but I thought, you know,

27:09I asked Rebecca to share with you guys some good products,

27:12and I guess she's kind of, what is it, gatekeeping?

27:14Is that the term?

27:14I'm gatekeeping.

27:15I'm, like, realizing I use a lot of Pat McGrath,

27:17and she makes some good stuff.

27:19And I don't really wear foundation.

27:21I wear, like, the NARS concealer as kind of foundation.

27:25I noticed that.

27:26You kind of just painted paint by number.

27:27I don't know.

27:28I, like, for me, I do like

27:30when my makeup looks good in person.

27:33And on me, something, like,

27:35I used to spend two hours before high school getting ready

27:38and, like, doing a full face.

27:39I'd put on individual lashes.

27:40I would do the whole thing.

27:41Wait a minute. In high school?

27:42In high school, yes.

27:43Because you were done with the homeschooling,

27:45and you said the girls are gonna, the girls are gonna.

27:47Yeah, the girls are gonna gag.

27:48The 14-year-olds are gonna gag when they see these lashes.

27:51My sister was in high school,

27:52and she would wear glitter and lashes and everything.

27:54And I was like, go off.

27:56If glitter is not made for teenagers to wear on their face,

27:58who is it made for, you know?

28:00I agree.

28:01It was also, like, my,

28:02it was just me, like, discovering who I was as a woman,

28:04you know?

28:05On women, you're attracted to women.

28:07Do you like women with kind of, like, femme,

28:09a lot of makeup?

28:10Do you, like?

28:11I, I like, I like boys.

28:13I like girls who are boys.

28:15Me too.

28:16Like, I've always considered myself

28:17to not really have a type.

28:19And I'm always surprised, let me tell you that.

28:21Like, I, there's nothing I've not tried.

28:24And I like it all.

28:25I just like people who will flirt with me,

28:27who will, like, flirt back.

28:28I've tried dating apps.

28:29I've tried all of that.

28:30It never works because that's just not fun for me.

28:33Like, I need to, like, know that we can talk and laugh.

28:35Right.

28:36And as long as we can do that, I, I'm down.

28:38I think these days, like, I'm, I'm really loving,

28:40I'm really loving that masculine type in all forms,

28:43whether it be in girl or boy or them.

28:46Right.

28:47All of them.

28:48They, them.

28:49Love a they, them.

28:50Yeah.

28:51Love a short bang.

28:51Love a blue bowl cut.

28:52Give me it all.

28:53Really?

28:54No, I, not sexually, but what?

28:57I like, if I was into girls, I know it.

29:00Cause I, as a drag queen,

29:01there's always that very butch girl bartender.

29:04And I feel like drag queens

29:06and very masculine presenting women

29:08have this, like, sexual interchange of energy

29:11where it's like, hi, daddy.

29:12You know what I mean?

29:13Like, this is my daddy.

29:14My daddy, she's going to make me a drink.

29:15You know what I mean?

29:16Like, if I was going to be with girls,

29:17I would want, like, a Guy Fieri shirt

29:19and, like, a chain wallet.

29:20Oh, hot.

29:21You know what I mean?

29:21Yeah, hot.

29:22That's what I want.

29:23Yeah.

29:24I love, I love, like, someone who looks like shit.

29:26Like, that's, like, my 100% type.

29:30What are you doing later?

29:30I will say, like, as much as people hate on this,

29:35like, I am here for that, like, het vibe

29:38where there's, like, a guy who looks like shit

29:40and just, like, a perfect doll.

29:42Like, I think that's hot, personally.

29:44Yeah.

29:45Obviously, a lot of people feel that way

29:46cause a lot of people do that.

29:47A lot of people do it.

29:49And I'm part of, like, that's where my Chad kicks in.

29:52Right.

29:52As a drag queen, I feel like butch girls

29:53are always around us, honestly protecting us.

29:55And, like, you know, I always feel like the butch girls

29:58who work at the clubs are always protecting the dolls.

30:00Like, always looking out for us.

30:01The truth is, underneath it all,

30:02these bitches are soft as hell puppy dogs

30:05who will cry from a commercial.

30:06Yeah.

30:07So don't believe that tough shit.

30:08That's the thing.

30:08The real men are me.

30:09Right, exactly.

30:10And that, I love, I love that dynamic.

30:12But I also, like, I am learning what it's like

30:14to, like, date someone with taste and style right now.

30:17And I'm also enjoying that, you know?

30:19Yeah.

30:20I am enjoying that.

30:21I do usually date older.

30:22Trying to not do that.

30:22Like, 50, 60?

30:23Like, 35.

30:26Cut the cameras, dead ass.

30:27I'm so over this shit.

30:28I have been disrespected too many times in my own home.

30:32There are people who are 35 or, you know,

30:34just put them down.

30:35You know what I mean?

30:35They have nothing to offer.

30:36They should be shot.

30:37Let them go.

30:38You know, we're probably towards the end of this makeup.

30:40So are you okay if we do a wrap up and come back all done?

30:42Yeah.

30:43Okay, we'll be right back.

30:44Oh my God.

30:46Nick, this is you.

30:48Like, immediately I knew I had photo.

30:52Oh my God.

30:53This is so shocking, you guys.

30:55Nick, you look like Charlie Brown.

30:57Rebecca and I were the two that took

30:59musical theater the most seriously.

31:01You're talking to the princess and queen,

31:03prince and king of musical theater.

31:05Here we are.

31:06No, I think it's princess.

31:07What is your gender in these pictures?

31:09There's a lot of styling choices

31:10that let us know exactly what year this was.

31:12What a horrible time of living.

31:14Yeah.

31:15Middle school.

31:17I remember our musical theater teacher telling me

31:20that I couldn't be,

31:21we were doing Guys and Dolls as our production that year,

31:22and I couldn't be a crapshooter

31:24because I was too gifted and I thought she meant,

31:26it was because I was too pretty.

31:28It was because I had breasts.

31:30Well, you can't do that because of your huge breasts.

31:32Well, you can't say that in school either.

31:33She couldn't tell me that, no.

31:35Right, no.

31:35Well, here's the final look.

31:36I mean, listen, all we're missing

31:37is a bunch of drunk people around us

31:39and we could be working right now.

31:40True.

31:41Rebecca, where can the children find you this year?

31:42Well, my next project, Salvation,

31:44comes out February 27th.

31:52Just MsRebeccaBlack everywhere and you'll find me.

31:57That's true.

31:58Thank you guys very much and thank you to Nick

31:59for taking us on memory lane today.
