00:30We're building gates to our community.
00:34Brawl is our release, our battleground, our strength, our imagination.
00:40It's our story.
00:41We all speak the same language because dance is an art and art is communication.
00:45If you're alone, this is your family.
00:48If you're homeless, this is your house.
00:52Runway.
00:54Catwalk.
00:55Selling.
00:57Go on!
00:58Go on!
00:58Roomb is a place with starlitgrey's catechritos like Vogue and Evenface.
01:02Sometimes the girls walk runway, our flirting fights then just shutting down.
01:06Roomb is a place for the catty girls.
01:07Gave efeminent from across the world.
01:09Roomb has houses like Mizrahi.
01:11Car Git M reaching, even Ebony.
01:26You must walk, T.J. pump the beat.
01:30Voguing.
01:31Voguing is dancing, but ballroom is like culture.
01:36You have the people that walk the balls,
01:38commentate the balls, host the balls, play in the balls.
01:41It's like a secret society.
01:43We're kind of like CIA or the FBI or something,
01:46because only special ops bitches get to know where we're at
01:49and what we're doing, you know?
01:51The thing about the coldest winter ever, bro,
01:53it's like people come from everywhere.
01:55Paris, London, Morocco.
01:57It's like a ball everyone knows is coming up
01:59and everyone's getting ready to walk it.
02:03To be a part of ballroom is for anyone.
02:06To be in ballroom, you have to be the top of your top.
02:11I suck too much dick, bitch.
02:14I can't commentate.
02:15I'm a great deal.
02:16Like, what made me different was because I'm a commentator.
02:20You see, you got the people that spectate,
02:21that come to see the show,
02:22and then you have people like me to help run the show.
02:25What do you call the people that?
02:27Conductor.
02:28I'm like a conductor, because I'm like,
02:30Folk Femmes, female figures, run this, you are nice.
02:34Oh, oh, oh.
02:35You go home.
02:35You do this.
02:36No, you can't.
02:37You got your.
02:38Thank you, Pam.
02:39I don't like that.
02:40It's like,
02:42It's like eight different jobs in one.
02:50Everyone has these different houses.
02:52It's like 20-something houses.
02:53And with all these houses,
02:55depending on what house you're in, that's the culture.
02:57I mean, anybody can create a house.
02:58Let me say that first.
02:59Anybody can create a house,
03:00but in order for your house to be respected,
03:01you have to be respected.
03:02The most popular ballroom house right now
03:04is my own, La Beja.
03:06Definitely like my house,
03:08Balenciaga, of course.
03:09Revlon's always here for the battle.
03:11Definitely Mugler's.
03:12Lots of new legends out of Mugler.
03:14Lots of up-and-coming legends
03:15that are about to come out of Mugler as well.
03:19When you start out in the ballroom scene,
03:21you start out as a virgin.
03:23Then you become a star.
03:24After that, you become a statement.
03:26I got my legendary status.
03:28When you go to a ball,
03:29it's very likely that you're going to be called out
03:31because now you're a legend.
03:33When you see Alex,
03:34he's going to sway towards you,
03:36like the wind is fighting against his body.
03:39Like, Alex, ooh!
03:41Alex is like it.
03:42Like, Alex brings it to you every time.
03:45Alex Mugler is like,
03:46his movements are different.
03:48Here, little pussy, kitty cat.
03:50Every time you hit the floor, it's a rat.
03:52Alex pussy so clean.
03:53Every time he comes down, he's so getting mean.
03:55Alex, yes, he's pussycat.
04:03What y'all think?
04:04This one or this one?
04:06The white one.
04:06The white one, right?
04:07I like the white one.
04:08This is giving very Princess Diana meets grunge.
04:10I love it.
04:11Wow.
04:13This is giving me very 1996,
04:16Lil' Kim,
04:18Junior Mafia.
04:20I mean, as a Mugler,
04:23you just have to come done.
04:24I mean, you just have to be in your best threads.
04:27We're a house about, like, opulence and appearance
04:30and knowing your worth and being very royal
04:34and knowing that I look the best
04:37and I smell the best
04:38and I wear the best
04:39and, bitch, I'm the best.
04:46I've choreographed for people like Rihanna.
04:49I've danced for people like FKA Twigs,
04:51Bob Sinclair.
04:53I've choreographed for companies like Hermes.
04:56I see myself as a household name,
04:58as a company for talent.
05:01Just giving people the opportunity
05:03to expand their gifts beyond their beliefs.
05:07You know what I mean?
05:09Sort of kind of like how shit went for me.
05:11Legendary-dickery-dickery-dickery.
05:12Can you tell me how you met Tati?
05:14Oh, Tatiana.
05:16How would you out of love?
05:18I met Tati and I just seen a lot of potential in her
05:22and I just really loved her energy
05:24so I wanted to bring her to the blue glares
05:26because I thought that we could blossom her ballroom career
05:30and her ballroom career blossomed.
05:33Sexy, your sex siren.
05:35I feel like Beyoncé when I walk in the ball.
05:37You know, it's a whole lot of hype.
05:39You know, all the people that are raving,
05:42they're like, oh my God, is she going to walk?
05:44Oh my God.
05:45You know, you just never know.
05:47Put your dress down, though.
05:49Oh, yeah, because I'm giving sensual seduction.
05:54My nickname is Tati.
05:56I'm 24 and I'm originally from Brooklyn, New York.
06:00Brooklyn Biscay.
06:02It's really like a concrete jungle.
06:04It's tough.
06:04Like, you really develop tough skin
06:06or you just lose yourself.
06:10But, you know, I think I ended up pretty well.
06:13All right, so this is from when I won the latex ball.
06:17And this is the same ball the next year.
06:20And this is the same ball again.
06:23Tati came to the scene and it was just like,
06:26okay, this little bitch can vote.
06:28And then it came, okay, this bitch can really dress nice.
06:32Tati's a blessing to borrow.
06:33A BB, she's a blessing to borrow.
06:37Tati 007 is like the new it girl.
06:40She's really like one of the most talented girls
06:44that I've seen in my generation, definitely.
06:46Tati gives it.
06:47Tati brings it every time they're in the room.
06:52Bring it on, Tati.
06:56Basically, I left the house of Mugler
06:59due to some personal things that transpired.
07:02I became a 007, you know.
07:04So I'm just alone right now.
07:06I'm homeless in the warm scene.
07:09I'm a child without home.
07:13What about the coldest one to ever, Ball?
07:15I'm coming to do the girls.
07:17I mean, anybody can win, but baby, I'm coming to carry.
07:21First, learn who the you are first.
07:22You know, everyone knows how, but why.
07:26I say it a lot, but that's important, okay?
07:28So don't do it because you know how.
07:30Do it because you know why you're doing it.
07:32All right, Tati.
07:34I know, bitch.
07:39All right, first category in...
07:42Futuristic versus Bizarre.
07:44If you are walking, please get ready.
07:4610, 9, 8, 4, 7, 6, bitch, pop, 4.
07:49Anybody else? Hello?
07:513, 2, 1, okay.
07:55Oh, my God.
07:56Categories.
07:57How many?
07:59There's like 100 categories.
08:02You have face, which is clean teeth, structure,
08:07just beauty in a sense.
08:09Femme Queen Runway, who are now?
08:11Runway, sex siren, butch queen, vogue, femme.
08:14Femme queen performance,
08:16which is probably not the politically correct term anymore.
08:18When the girls are competing and they are in it
08:21and they are in it for a grand prize,
08:23like, oh, honey, it's...
08:29How do you define realness with a twist?
08:32Realness with a twist,
08:33you have to be able to fulfill two categories.
08:35Well, with realness in a twist,
08:36first you need to walk realness
08:38and sell it on the runway.
08:40Now, the twist is
08:42to be able to come out and do the exact opposite,
08:45and when that beat hits,
08:46you have to go off.
08:48I define realness
08:50if you're unclockable.
08:52Like, nobody in the room can clock you.
08:54The icons can't clock you,
08:56the legends can't clock you,
08:57nobody can clock you.
08:58You're realness.
09:01I have a naturally masculine...
09:04I mean, I can't say that
09:05I'm trying to hide my femininity.
09:07Like, whatever masculine mannerisms you see,
09:10that is me.
09:10Whatever feminine mannerisms you see,
09:12that's me.
09:12That's...
09:13It's just who I am.
09:15Johnny Mizrahi is
09:16realness with a twist.
09:18He got the masculine physique,
09:20but when he vogues, it's like,
09:22sis, who taught you that?
09:24Realness, realness,
09:25vogue him with a twist.
09:26These are the girls that vogue like this.
09:27They knit it down like your sister.
09:29You're a bitch, like did it, did it, did it, yeah.
09:31Realness, realness with that twist.
09:33Realness with that feminine twist.
09:35Realness, flick your wrist, like this, like...
09:39Yeah, realness with a twist.
09:40I grew up in Harlem and in Brooklyn,
09:43Brooklyn, Eastern New York, specifically.
09:44It was very dangerous.
09:46The schools was tough.
09:46I used to get teased all the time
09:48about being gay and stuff like that.
09:49I was like, what is gay?
09:51You know, like, that's...
09:52that's a thing?
09:53Like, you know what exactly is gay?
09:55You don't process the word
09:56until you get old, I guess.
10:05It's like a way for gay people to overcome the oppression
10:09that they go through on a daily basis
10:11and express it, you know?
10:13It's an idea.
10:15Ideas can't be stopped, you know?
10:18What can you do that's different?
10:20I know you see people out there,
10:21your favorite legend, your favorite statements,
10:23and stars, your favorite names,
10:24and all that other stuff.
10:25That's cute.
10:26They make...
