I’m lost for the words right now … ‘Light Up’ has just been nominated for a Hollywood Music in Media Award and I am all 🥹🥹🥹!!! This song, written especially for my Netflix doco, was a really dedicated endeavour and experience. It’s about how those who truly love you have a special ability to see your potential, even when you don’t, and how beautiful and profound that is. Spoken or unspoken. Aaaaanywaaaay, I’ll just be here all 🥹☺️😘.. ‘I feel your love. Yeah, yeah, I Light Up’. 💗

🎻🎩 Angie is mortified by her violinist father’s eccentric capes, ascots, and boaters. Years later, a newspaper clipping reveals him as he truly was: a light, a beacon, and a father who loved her enough to be himself. linkinbio #DressHimUp #NLSP #ShortStories #Menswear

📈🕶️ Wall Street wunderkind Delmore Havington is an utter fiction. When a yacht trip unmasks his working-class immigrant roots, he must decide: can a man ever truly outrun his original seams? Read Robert Morgan Fisher's story! linkinbio #DressHimUp

Robert and Jamil pact to wear eccentric hats every school year. But when Jamil is mocked for being gay, Robert shows up in a hand-dyed pink hatband of pure solidarity. Experience Craig Kenworthy's beautiful story. linkinbio #DressHimUp #LGBTQBooks

What doesn’t make sense to me is that a lot of young generations act like Madonna hasn’t had a hit since the 80s. The year Jake was born, she released Beautiful Stranger and won Grammys for ROL. The following year she had two huge smashes: Music and Don’t Tell Me.
