Voguing to me looks like people going from one position to another one while posing for cover pictures of the Vogue Magazine. Sometimes it makes sense, sometimes it doesn't.

I love you so much Willie 💜💐♾🥰 you left us so young and you still had so much to offer to contribute to this world. You made Paris burn baby! You made Madonna vogue! You have Rupaul the infamous sache chaunte! You gave us your legendary children Benny and J! The infamous choreographer child of yours! The house of ninja is still alive and well. Thank You so much for being you unapologetically 💐💜👑😘

He def. use to work the door at this club on 21st in Chelsea/NYC back in the day, the late 90s. I heard he was a famous dancer (I was on Broadway at the time), but I didn't really know who he was? Sound Factory Bar/ Cheetah. He NEVER gave me a problem at the door. Always let me in without a hitch. I watched him turn away many ppl too! I guess I was a privileged. R.I.P

So is that really where "throwing shade" came from... from the shadow on the floor that your body made while vogueing?? And you threw better shade than the other person? Or was shade already a drag thing & it just got incorporated into vogueing...

I live for these legends... they paved the way and opened doors for the next generations in the gay community but a lot of gays don't have any respect for the old school and how it originally started. If it wasn't for them, we wouldn't have half of the rights that we do now.

I'm telling you if he had lived, he would have been a brilliant Celebutante. For some reason, I could see him working with A Fashion Designer like Marc Jacobs whipping the Models into Work, or ANTP, or even working with the Kardashians.
