@c.k.8585 Месяц назад

@@rlgonzalez1458 I think that's unfair. Landon absolutely did the best but I don't think he murdered either Dollya or Priscilla that all did great in the season. Dollya in particular imo did amazing, she just came off very unlikable for some reason. I think the best part about Landon in that season was that beyond the challenge performance he was also just above the drama (and that season had DRAMA). Everyone else had moments of weakness. He had like one low placement and I cannot even understand why (imo he was at worst safe, I'd have him high over Louisianna)

@oscarsoto8428 Месяц назад

This is one of those situations where Maddy being straight in a queer community is an asset. He’s able to take an objective step back and let someone deep in the community be like “um, the gay dudes need to chill out”. I hope Cider is the first of MANY drag kings that will be on the show (maybe even increase their visibility so they’re on drag race?)

@_yaboi Месяц назад

@dylanherron3963 Месяц назад

As a Cis-Het white male with "feminine" tendencies, the space Maddy has created since her glow-up has allowed me to also shed a lot perceptions about myself and others. I've always assumed that because I'm straight I need to hide from other people how much I love the FREEDOM of Queer Art, and refrain from attending my local city's events (WE HAVE SO MANY). And on the other side, always felt like I'd be "invading" someone else's space if I tried. I'm so unfamiliar with Drag Kings, and I love this conversation. So productive. Will definitely be paying more attention to Landon and their projects, and Kings in general. Edit: for clarity I just meant "Attending" as in, "Paying for a ticket and fanning 1's at those bitches like no tomorrow" not that I was going to try performing, I CAN'T DO MAKE-UP, AND I LACK FEROCITY, not honesty!

@Regene4239 Месяц назад

This is really cool to hear! If you like drag race, and are comfortable with horror, check out Dragula! Landon absolutely massacred season 3, and the latest season had two phenomenal kings👑 Also they’ve had a straight male monster on one of the early seasons.

When people talk about the theatre of gender and social norms it all makes sense when I watch Madeline, myself, a lot of other gender non-conforming people, everyone that can't fit what feels like strict expectations, and the people who look like they are but they are exhausted by keeping it up. Honestly I just want to live. I don't want to have to meet people's (including sometimes my own) expectations of gender. Flowers just bloom without thinking about what they look like and how that compares to all other flowers and everything else. They just live and die in beauty and dignity. Anyway, have a blessed day.

If Landon was on flagship drag race he would smoke said hypothetical season with suuuch ease, like Sasha Colby levels of slayage; Both situations TO ME where theyre the clear winner and the season loses steam bc of it no matter how hard production tries to feed us Anetra (or Landon’s hypothetical counterpart). Especially taking into account his Dragula win we need him fast tracked to all stars/all winners/whatever if it were to happen, and even then he’s dominating easily in my head. Drag race missed their opportunity and if they didn’t we would be EXCEEDINGLY lucky for him to deign to give them the time of day, just like we were when Sasha was oh so gracious as to let them give her 200k and fix their reputation in doing so.

I hope a drag king gets on soon and often and not just one per season. I don't care if they're "not ready" because we've had plenty of queens who weren't ready, who could do makeup but couldn't perform, who could perform but couldn't do sew, who could dance and sew but found acting challenges difficult. I just hope if they're not ready people don't write kings off completely.

@millie-mayprice891 Месяц назад

we have a really strong king scene in my town, and no lie, the king shows are my absolute favourite. VERY rarely will you ever see a drag king get up and do a straight lip sync in a boring outfit, because AFAB performers just can't "get away with it" doing a low effort show, so there's always a fun twist, or an extra campy costume, or another talent, or some kind of over the top add on that just makes our king shows extra queer, extra fabulous, extra EXTRA. also, because they're generally run by AFAB folk, the respect and diversity, and safety tends to be incredibly good, because it has to be to keep the mostly afab performers and audiences safe. it's FANTASTIC. don't get me wrong, our queens are wonderful and inclusive too, but the kings and the shows they run just hit different. i've never felt safer in a club than at a show run by a drag king.

@feltfrog Месяц назад

that sounds so fun hahah I’m jealous, we don’t reeally have that here

@millie-mayprice891 Месяц назад

@@feltfrog it IS fun. we're lucky enough to have some feminist badasses who really just put the work in, and started running their own shows and strongly encouraging other kings to perform, creating opportunities for kings to perform, just... making space where there hadn't been any before. but its been fantastic for the drag scene in general, more talent, more variety, more queer people making queer art... we're honestly so lucky! i think the thing a lot of dragrace show runners and drag queens forget is that a HUGE proportion of the fanbase is afab. and we COME OUT for our kings. we spend money. we go to the shows. we buy the merch, and the make up lines. we scream and yell and sing along and CELEBRATE our hyper queens and drag kings and gnc performers. they're really missing out by not allowing more afab representation on the show, it would make them SO MUCH MONEY.

Landon has gained a fan in me, so articulate, has really given me a new perspective on drag, and on gender performance.

Saying this as a stage 4 late 20 something queer "survivor" of cancer (who also has shitty memory, go figure).

Landon is absolutely my favourite drag king ever and probably my all time favourite drag performer. I've experienced a lot of sudden chaotic health problems both in myself and in my family and they've helped me deal with them in so many different ways. I'll never tire of hearing Landon speak either, it's always something that I can learn from and it's just so invaluable. Also his performance of "enjoy the silence" is the first performance that made me fully understand the power of drag in telling a story through performance. They're absolutely incredible both in and out of drag and I'm so excited that they're here for this interview!

Wow it took me second before Maddy said anything to realize that they are wearing a silicon body wrap of a 6-pack😂 it looks seamless and the right shade❤

I had the privilege of seeing Landon Cider in person. He’s an awesome performer. He’s the first ever drag king I saw so he’s set the bar for expectations super high for me personally.

@ChrystalVanDusseldorp Месяц назад

Landon is an absolutely amazing performer, and I'm so glad he was able to be on! I've been fortunate to live in Long Beach for several years and have seen him perform many times, including my 40th birthday brunch last year. He MC'd an engagement party for friends a few years ago. Lots of great shows and great memories. Thank you for all that you do, Landon! 🖤🖤🖤

Landon is genuinely one of the smartest, most thoughtful, and down to earth people I've ever heard. The conversations that these two had were so refreshing and level-headed.

I would highly recommend watching Landon do enjoy the silence. He's done it a couple of times but particularly the weho showgirls version was during the throat cancer and is really moving.

MY DRAG IDOL OMGGGGG! 😱😱😱 I’ve met Landon TWICE at Play Louisville and was starstruck both times lol! It’s my dream to perform at the same show at them! 😍😍😍 Thank you Maddy for helping show appreciation towards drag kings- We don’t get it nearly enough! I loved getting to know Landon better through this interview, they are a very resilient person, and this is a very inspiring life story that gives me courage.❤️❤️❤️

@simathpar Месяц назад

I am so happy about this conversation on misogyny and patriarchy in (aspects of) drag race. at the end, despite its important and impactful discourse, its another example of an industry dominated by (mostly) men. even dominating conversations on feminity. and it gets my guts if men who celeberate their "feminity" on stage talk down about female bodies. nope, does not cut it.

@desireemoila Месяц назад

I absolutely I adore the door you've opened with this much needed conversation with our Drag King Landon. They absolutely tore up their season of Dragula and Ive neen mesmerized ever since

There are so many amazing drag kings that are more than deserving of a bigger stage. Thank you Maddy for sharing drag king art on your platform and bringing Landon on. ❤

@risetwotwo9654 Месяц назад

LOVE LANDON!! So correct across the board too many performers think their drag "validity" entitles them to every opportunity out there. Just cuz your drag is VALID doesn't mean it's GOOD. practice and put in the work. ❤❤❤❤ And OMG, I have my ORIGINAL AOL email address from when AOL sent you the CD with 20 free hours on dial up!! 😂😂😂

After Michelle Visage said she wants a Drag King on Drag Race last year, I think it is only a matter of time. I think we will see one outside the main franchise first though. Probably in UK though I think France found a spot to feature Drag Kings on both seasons so it could be there first.

@jmann6130 Месяц назад

I think it depends on wether or not Rue wants to diversify the franchise more so far they have only had Victoria scone and Pandora Nox as the only AFABs to date. And also I’m not sure if Rue and Michelle would know how to critique a king’s drag since they put so much emphasis on femininity on the show so I don’t know if it would be in there wheelhouse.

@miraza. Месяц назад

rumor had it last year that a non-ru season (i think france) wanted to cast a king but got a no from the wow producers cause they want it to happen the first time on a ru season.

@digitalpeelings Месяц назад

This has to be one of my favorite episodes by far. Landon was such a wonderful (and handsome) guest. I found him extremely eloquent with each topic - bringing up our history, how misogyny played a part, and still does even in our own community. There definitely are changes that we still need to be working towards regarding but it was very inspiring to listen to. Thank you ❤

If you're still curious about Landon's speech, try saying word "Rare" without the sides of your tongue touching your teeth. Now imagine that a huge chunk is missing out of one side and say "Rare" again. I'm happy to have someone so real and creatively firing off on all cylinders. Huge fan of Landon

@air7285 Месяц назад

Real, but also I don’t really see anything wrong with his voice in the first place 😂 maybe if I heard it irl but on a mic, voices already are a bit distorted, and my brain is focused more on the content. Anyway cool to know

I’m so excited for this interview, because I’ve been obsessed with Landon for years, and it’s a goal of mine to meet him, because from everything that I’ve seen involving Landon, he’s just the kindest, sweetest most caring person in the room.
