#6’1 in a gay boot

[eleanorskys]

Ranking the Fear Street Killers Based on How Likely I Would Win Against Them in a Fist Fight

1. Billy Barker - 10/10

He’s like...8? 10? 12, if you’re pushing it. And he probably doesn’t have a lot of strength to boot. Get that bat away from him and he’d have pretty much nothing, so he’d be easy to fight (even though I wouldn’t voluntarily fight him, Billy’s baby)

2. Ryan Torres - 8/10

He may look super scary and all that, but underneath the mask, he looks like this.

He’s a scrawny, probably nerdy teenage boy. He has never fought anyone in his life. He’ll put up a bit of a fight, but I could beat his ass.

3. Ruby Lane - 6/10

Two sapphics in a Denny’s parking lot at 5 am, who will win?

I’m gonna be honest, Ruby’s not weak. She’s not Tommy, but she has some strength in her.

But I do think I could have a good chance at winning in a fight against her. I would put her lower but she’s really pretty and I’m gay. If she got me on the ground like she did Simon, I would literally die.

4. Cyrus Miller - 5.5/10

He was a pastor in the 1660s. He likely never had to do any heavy lifting or manual labor like other men in Union (since many careers in that time were things like farming or blacksmithing). He’s probably not really strong.

He could fight a little bit, but other than that, I would have a fair chance at beating him.

5. Harry Rooker : 4.5/10

Again, he’s not Tommy, but he does have some strength. He’s able to fling adult!Ziggy to the ground pretty easily, and I’m a good bit smaller than Gillian Jacobs.

Also, I think I might pass out if he did something creepy.

HOWEVER, I am not completely fucked - there’s only one person on here where I am. He’s a little shorter than my dad (my dad’s 6’1”) and I’ve been able to fight my dad pretty well, so I think I could have a chance.

6. Tommy Slater - 3.5/10

If he was not possessed, I feel like he would go easy on me. He’s not the guy to get into fights in the first place, but I get “strong baseball pitcher” vibes from him. He’s strong, I’m sure.

But if he’s possessed, I would be almost screwed. He’s stronger possessed than he is when he’s not, so I feel like I would have a real hard time winning in a fight against him.

7. Isaac Milton - 0/10

I said there was one person on this list who I was completely fucked against. It’s Isaac.

Let’s get a couple things straight.

1. This man has no weapon except his bare hands.

2. He can easily throw grown men like sacks of grapes.

3. He is 6’10”. That makes him two feet taller than me, not to mention he has over a hundred pounds of what I assume is mostly muscle on me.

I would not be able to win in a fight against this man. I wouldn’t even want to get in a fight with him because he honestly scares me a bit. He could realistically rip me apart.

He was shocked in the back of his neck by a taser ( that left a permanent scar there) and was taken to a dirty basement where he was chained to a wall and kept prisoner for several days. This is where Zack met Johnny C or Nny. Upon finding that his captor was about the same age ( and attractive ) Zack, being the gay that he was, made every attempt to flirt with Johnny to both mask his fear and because he genuinely found the other good-looking. The more the two got to talk ( mainly because Nny hadn’t killed him yet ) the more Zack enjoyed being around him, the more he genuinely liked him. The two eventually started a relationship.

Quirks/Eccentricities: He hasn’t quite grown out of doomsday mode yet. He keeps a stock of canned food and bottled water in the dorm, has an emergency kit under his bed with some rope, knives, a first aid kit, etc., and knows the fastest route to the Fox Tower basement.

He doesn’t have it in him to blame her for the way he was raised. Now that he’s been away long enough, he understands how manipulative the leader was, picking at all his mother’s greatest insecurities and showing her a sense of false security. 

How does their family feel about them?: Katherine is proud of her son and how much he’s adjusted to life compared to her, and she feels guilty for putting them both in that situation. She just hopes that he can be happy and successful despite how he grew up.

Sterling doesn’t mind it, because being in a basement and close to his mom feels safe. He’s used to living in close quarters with other people, and would rather live in a small dorm or a basement than a big house all alone.

He didn’t have many clothes growing up in the commune, and still doesn’t really have a lot of money to buy much, but, since leaving, he’s taken more interest in his style and looking good, so he frequents thrift stores to find some cool clothes. 

Favorite Bands/Songs/Type of Music: He unashamedly loves pop. He learned the hard way that it isn’t cool, but has taken a “fuck you it’s fun” approach to steer people away from giving him shit. 

Favorite Movies: The Parent Trap 

Favorite Books: He doesn’t really read, but he’ll pick out a random book for flights.

Alex Newell Won’t Fit into Your Mold, But He Might Squeeze into Your Shoes

New Post has been published on http://www.kickoffme.com/alex-newell-wont-fit-into-your-mold-but-he-might-squeeze-into-your-shoes/

Alex Newell Won’t Fit into Your Mold, But He Might Squeeze into Your Shoes

Alex Newell Won’t Fit into Your Mold, But He Might Squeeze into Your Shoes

Alex Newell Won’t Fit into Your Mold, But He Might Squeeze into Your Shoes

It’s a sweltering late afternoon in June and Alex Newell is struggling to put on his shoes. “Dear feet.

You will not be swollen today,” Newell, 24, says as he squeezes his toes into a pair of lacey black Christian Louboutins in his trailer on New York City’s Upper West Side.

“I’m an 11 in women’s. It’s not bad. Would I rather be an 8? Absolutely.”

After about 30 seconds of grunting and tugging, Newell is in. “Yes!” he yelps, as he slips in his heel.

He trots to the mirror to admire his full look: red-bottomed Louboutins, a matching black lace choker, and an all-white suit. (He’ll add a silver and black wig later.) “This is a moment,” he says.

Newell has an affinity for shoes.

It’s likely why he’s willing to withstand the pain (and bleeding) of the glittery silver pair of Aldo heels his stylist picked out for his opening performance—a violin-powered rendition of “True Colors,” alongside singers Hayley Kiyoko and Wrabel, in honor of Cyndi Lauper.

It’s also likely why he snuck into his mother’s closet at 10 years old (around the time he began having inklings of his sexuality) to try on her high heels, or why he auditioned for the role of Lola, a thigh-high boots-obsessed drag queen, on Broadway’s “Kinky Boots” four times.

“I think the higher the heel, the closer to god,” Newell says.

There perhaps is nowhere closer to god than where Newell is right now at the Cathedral of Saint John the Divine, a Gothic upper Manhattan church, where Logo will film its show.

Soon, the cathedral, a religious worship house-turned-pink-tinted gala, will be filled with hundreds of LGBTQ leaders—an irony Newell, a Catholic school alum, fully understands.

“I love it. All the homos in one little church. It’s such an oxymoron,” Newell says.

Born and raised in a town just north of Boston, Newell spent most of his childhood at Catholic school, where he was one of less than five black students. “I had my best Caucasian upbringing,” he says.

The only place he saw others that looked like him was at church, where Newell attended every Sunday since he was a toddler to sing in the choir. It was also where he would later develop conflicted feelings over the bible’s teachings.

Newell’s mother discovered his talent at age two after he wandered onto the stage at a state fair when his mother briefly turned around to fetch him a juice. “She started panicking, looking for me, and then she just heard my voice,” Newell says.

He later caught the performing bug at 11, when he saw a local theatre production of “Ain’t Misbehavin’,” an all-black Musical set in the Harlem Renaissance. “I would see Broadway shows that were on PBS and I would be in love with them, but I never saw anyone that looked like me,” he says.

It was a running theme: Newell was one of three black students in his high school—and with a high-pitched voice and natural sashay, he easily stuck out. Still, it wasn’t all tough. While his peers sorted through their own sexuality, Newell barely gave his a second thought. “Walking around the house in my mother’s heels, I was like, ‘I think that’s it, guys!’” he says,

At 17, on a whim, Newell came out to his mother by impulsively telling her right before bed. “I screamed it at my mother and she said, ‘Go to bed. I just took a Xanax,’” he says. “The next morning she was like, ‘I’m fine. Are you fine?’ And I was like, ‘I’m great! I love you.’”

But not everyone was so accepting. As word spread in his church, Newell caught the attention of his pastor, who pulled his mother aside to inform her that Newell’s sexuality was sinful. “He said the lifestyle that I chose goes against the bible,” Newell says. “Everyone who is a diehard Christian, they always use the bible against things they don’t like. But I’m pretty sure the bible says, ‘God is love.’ So if you can’t love someone else, aren’t you going against the bible?”

In his junior year, Newell applied for a regular role on “Glee” via a Myspace audition. Months later, he was selected to compete on a little-known show called “The Glee Project”—not quite the same, but if chosen, Newell would win a recurring role on “Glee.” Newell quickly agreed, taking a leave absence from high school and flying to Los Angeles that same week.

He eventually made it to the top four, losing out on the main role but still earning a two-episode consolation prize—a role that would later become a series regular and catapult him to national stardom.

In April 2012, about a year after “The Glee Project” ended, Newell made his “Glee” debut as Wade Adams, a shy off-stage, Sasha Fierce on-stage transgender student who would later go by “Unique.” By September 2013, Newell was promoted to series regular and earned widespread acclaim for portraying one of the first transgender high school students on television. “I was just in Denver last week at a nightclub and this trans male came up to me and he said that he wears his [surgical] scars proudly because of me,” Newell says. “It took everything in my body not to sob.”

Despite the praise, Newell is still a part of ongoing controversy regarding cisgender actors playing transgender characters. (In a viral Twitter thread, transgender actress Jen Richards explained that cisgender actors, specifically men, playing transgender characters is dangerous because it conveys to audiences that “being a trans women is just a man performing.”) It is a controversy Newell understands but also sees limitations to. “Everything’s a double-edged sword. I’m an actor, so at the end of the day, it’s whoever is best for the role. But I’m also a human,” he says. “I will say, since my character never fully transitioned, it kind of worked in a way. I myself may not be trans, but I am heavy on the gender-noncomforming.”

As “Glee” entered its final seasons, Newell was already looking ahead. While signing his last series regular deal, Newell was approached by Atlantic Records to release his own music. He jumped at the opportunity, debuting his first extended play, “POWER”—a Whitney Houston-esque catalogue—in 2016. Though it didn’t launch him into Beyonce’s stratosphere, Newell isn’t discouraged, with a new single out in August and another EP and album in the pipeline.

That level of confident optimism is likely what captured the attention of Adam Lambert in 2016 to bring Newell on his tour, or caught the eye of NBC that same year to greenlight “Imaginary Friend,” a comedy starring Newell in the lead role.

. He seemed to be hitting all the marks, until the director turned him down for his figure.

“They said my weight would inhibit me from playing the role, which is not true, but to each their own,” he says. “I was like, ‘This is a show where they’re encouraging you to be who you want to be. Don’t let them tell you who you should be.’ They literally looked me in the face and told me I was too big to play a role. There’s no limitation. My weight does not prescribe what I cannot do.”

The discrimination also followed Newell through his personal life where he would continually encounter relationship profiles preaching, “No fats. No femmes. No blacks.”

“We’re in a community where we want so much to be accepted yet we don’t accept each other,” Newell says. “We all suck the same dick, so why is it that you take it upon yourself to create some sort of alpha gay? The gay that is the ‘right’ kind of gay.”

Before he met his boyfriend, Newell admits he was never called “beautiful,” a term he’s still getting used to. “I was nothing like any of his 6’1”, white, blonde, blue-eyed, go-to-the-gym-nine-times-a-day boyfriends.

I was like, ‘You do know that I’m 5’7”, I have thick thighs, and my hair is black, right?” Newell says. “I had the insecurities about it all the time. It was really hard to get out of that. But here I am. I’ve risen above it. He always said I was beautiful, regardless. It’s a hard thing to hear because no one else has said it.

At the end, Newell’s face drops. He turns to his stylist, gives her a death glare, and shakes his head.

She quickly rushes to him to swap his heels for flip flops. Even the most mold-breaking still have to break in their shoes.
