Disney's Gayest Villain Song | Dreamsounds

[@DreamsoundsVideo]

An addendum to this video: not anything that contradicts what I say in this vid, but just two things that also give more context - Andreas Deja, the animator who designed Gaston who is also openly gay, has said that he based Gaston's physique on men he saw at a West Hollywood gym - The model for Gaston's animation (and a background painter for the movie) was Greg Drolette, a gay man ...But anyway, who's your fav Disney villain? Happy Spooky Season!🎃👻

Honestly, Gaston reminds me much more of the homophobic bullies that went after me in middle and high school - his taunt "Too kind and gentle to fight back" could have been said by any one of them.

[@DreamsoundsVideo]

I definitely agree, this type of hyper masculinity is something that would have been expressed by those who bullied me growing up. But masculinity is a complicated thing that I think has historically been both empowering and oppressive for LGBTQ people and I’ve also known people who were homophobic bullies who ended up coming out later. Similarly, a lot of LGBTQ masculinity finds solace in archetypes and aesthetics that are not usually the most welcoming to all LGBTQ people. And when they intersect with LGBTQ experience (like with trade), I think that’s interesting to look at and why Gaston’s queercoding is so interesting to me

[@acehealer4212]

@Rebecca Woolf That’s funny, sometimes I imagine in my head what it would be like if “Hellfire” was Frollo singing about lust for another man instead of a woman. Oh, and I just remembered annapantsu’s cover of “Hellfire.” It’s really cool and very gay.

[@Hecateofcrossroads]

@Rebecca Woolf the song is all about religions guilt you know the whole “you can’t want a woman like that” thing which the problem wasn’t he wanted her the problem was he pressured her and assaulted her anyway since it is about religious guilt it could be interpreted as religious guilt from being gay even though that’s not what intended to be

This is gonna piss people off but...i HATED the 'gay' moment in the reboot. Not because of the moment itself (i'm part of the LGBTQ) but the fact it was hyped up so much and what did we get? LeFou dancing with anouther man for two seconds. Yes, it was heavily implied that LeFou had a crush/romantic feelings for Gaston but i read into it like 'if you didn't know, you wouldn't know." Seriously Disney. if you are going to hype up a moment in a movie...i want to see something much, much more. i really expected LeFou to marry anouther man by the end of the movie.

[@Wormwoodification]

Gaston really is a well written character. The motivation for his villainy is so nuanced, especially when viewed in this light. He might actually be my favorite character in Beauty and the Beast now, whereas when I was younger it was the beast or Belle. The beast hurts openly - he literally becomes his darkness for all to see - but Gaston isn't even aware he's hurting or hurting others. He deliberately lives on the shallow surface refusing to see his own depths/darkness/subconscious. Truly unaware of his drives. Villiany - to me - is always about why the villian is the way they are, typically rooted in pain they refuse to acknowledge and/or can't escape. I always identify with the villian because that calls to me. I love a good villain because I think they need it more than the happy shiny characters who get their happily ever after.

[@WobblesandBean]

LOL yup, Gaston's villain song is even gayer than Ratcliffe's. But I would like to offer a counterpoint: _Ratigan._ His villain song is EXTREMELY gay, in the most delightful way.

[@DreamsoundsVideo]

[@savedgirl309]

I really hoped the live action would explore and make explicit Gaston’s queer coding. I think it would be cool to have LaFou and Gaston’s journey parallel Belle and Adam. Maybe Gaston’s fighting so hard for the status quo, and against the beast stems from internalized homophobia, a conflicted part of himself. LaFou reflects the truth back at him, which makes him uncomfortable. I also thought Gaston shouldn’t die. Put LaFou, and the beast on the ledge at the end. Forcing Gaston to choose what’s more important; slaying the beast (fear/hate), or saving his friend (love).

I partly think Gaston is overlooked as a villain because he was a hunter and wanted to get married and have 6 or 7 sons. I think most don't see Gaston as a villain until he learns of the Beast. I love the Gaston song and in the live action one.... I honestly believe Gaston knew how Lefou felt about him, Gaston even leans into that a bit kind of holding Lefou's face (well his chin) and calling him his dearest friend when trying to get Lefou to cover for him about leaving Maurice in the woods.

But Lefou was gay and thirsty in the originals animatedly film too. That was his whole shtick.

And honestly it’s kinda a mood😕 poor Lefou just wants love but can’t see that he’s being taken advantage of. He nearly freezes to death in the snow and for what? For Gaston. Poor Lefou😢 I hope he found someone eventually. Someone who actually treats him with love and respect.

[@frickinfrick8488]

“I think queer people having agency over their own narratives is more important than the exact ways in which they do it” I agree with this so much. I swear queer writers often get far more scrutiny placed on them over how they represent queer characters than non queer writers do. I’d rather have queer stories and queer characters from queer people with some questionable elements than none at all because avoiding it entirely is deemed more profitable.

[@abbycollins4820]

I love your singing voice SO MUCH! You should really make a channel where you make covers for Disney songs or songs in general.

[@rosannaharp]

Interesting thought…Captain Hook was initially supposed to be a woman in the original play (being double cast with Mrs Darling). I wonder how Disney would have handled the character the character been a woman? There was a gorgeous production of Peter Pan in London that had a female Captain Hook and it was insanely good and brought out different possibilities and nuances of the character.

[@dolljunk]

Whenever people say Gaston is straight purely because of a surface level reading of his character makes me incredibly frustrated. I think people who conflate Gaston's motivation to marry Belle as being emotionally, sexually or romantically attracted to her is missing the point of his villainy especially in his objectification of her. He ONLY wants to be with Belle because he only sees her as a prize to be won, prey to be tamed and something to be owned. The fact he has three busty women who openly lust after him, yet he picks the only unavailable and uninterested option adds a lot to a queer coded reading of his character in my opinion. He is a character that is permeated in queer culture and I really love this video exploring those aspects of him even if he is, ostensibly, a cis white able bodied man with a lot of social capital and privilege in his small town. Gay men definitely navigate this weird line between toxic masculinity and overt homophobia, and often can hurt other marginalised groups especially with how other aspects can intersect. Loved this video btw! My favourite Disney Villain is definitely a tie between Ursula and Maleficent.

[@TheHopperUK]

I think you're exactly right. There's no hint in the movie that Gaston is actually *attracted* to Belle. He says she's the most beautiful girl, so she's the best. He doesn't seem to find her sexy or genuinely appealing in any way.

[@deanneely3443]

I wasn't aware you could read fictional characters minds!

[@jasonblalock4429]

@@TheHopperUK I tend to take more of a feminist read on Gaston's motivations: he "wants" Belle because she's the one woman in the village who has no interest in him, and doesn't hide her feelings on the matter. That challenges his authority. And turning her into a little housewife would crush her independence. But either way, it seems pretty clear he'd only sleep with her to make kids, and spend the rest of the time hanging out with guys.

The Famous in NY clip really made this! You always manage to capture my Disney Nostalgia TM in a way that I needed to see it when I was little as a closeted queer child, and it’s really lovely to have it into adulthood. I like these more bite sized analyses too. Tom of Finland and the Leather community is the first thing I think of when I think of “trade.” He’s enough of a dreamboat for heterosexual cis women and cis men at the same time. And let’s be honest, Gaston is in a lot of Queer erotica just as a queer person. It’s almost full circle from Ashmans 80s gay male fantasy to how he’s expressed in online queer erotic a. I’m just not counting down the days for true well rounded out queer representation from this media monopoly company. As long as their share holders and CEOs are white het cis men, it won’t happen. And I’m not holding my breath.

Gaston is a combination of perfection and villainy

[@benniewanders4388]

1. A detail of the song I don't think you note: every detail Gaston provides about himself is MORE true of the beast (substituting the Beast's house staff for townspeople, that is). I feel like that's at least partially intentional 2. Even though it's a villain song, it's been close to my heart since I was a kid because it's a celebration of masculinity/maleness for its own sake, without a primary relationship to womanhood... which, for trans men of any stripe, but esp. gay ones, is a balm for the damage inflicted by the combined forces of conservatives (who want us to be women) and theoretically-progressives (who.... usually also want us to be women) (even if that's not explicit, they usually believe that we Owe Women for..... "having the Privileged Gender" (which we usually don't get the benefits of)? "having helped us in the past" (as well as sexually harassing us for not conforming to their gender standards?) (etc.))

[@_Slickk]

Hehehe The lesbians: YES URSALA THROW IT BACK- The gays: I’m not a furry but Scar do be hitting different 👀 The aces: Hades my man- The Demi’s: Yzma…You meme…I love you-

[@mintyfrost551]

I personally love disney, but their past can be very muddled while also being great!

I could see Gaston as gay or straight. Gay and in denial or so oblivious . Straight and still a slime. Would explain why he went after the one girl who didn't want him

[@jacklonsandoval7451]

Everyone love Gaston, especially girly gays with dady issues.

I got to sleep so I'm just going to guess this: It's a gay song because he's in love with himself, lol. (For real, your videos are pretty good)
