Big Freedia Does The VICE Interview (HBO)

  • You might have heard his voice in Beyonce's "Formation" video, or Drake's, "Nice For What."
    Meet Big Freedia: a musician known as the "Queen of Bounce," a genre of hip hop with New Orleans roots.
    We surrounded Big Freedia with his ultimate vices-purses, massage therapy, and ice- in exchange for some honest answers about his life, in "The VICE Interview."
    First- we loosened him up with his vices.
    And of course, we won Big Freedia's heart by combining his love of ice chips with his appreciate for a nicely-formed derriere, and got him an ice butt sculpture.
    "Now this is an ass I’ll eat," said Big Freedia. "I'm addicted to ice, I like certain types of ice: like the little small pellets, or I like the really flaky ice."
    Afterwards, Big Freedia shared some personal stories (a goblet of ice chips in hand, of course).
    On life as Freddie vs Big Freedia: "A lot of people think that I am trans but I'm not trans," said Big Freedia. "I am a gay male with hair and nails. So if you say 'he' or 'she' it doesn't matter. I know who you I am."
    He also addressed what it was like to be heard but not seen in Beyonce and Drake's music videos.
    "So a lot of people think that they didn’t want me in it visually, but our schedules didn't line up," said Big Freedia." And it's OK for me like, my voice being in it is a start. And that's important for me and for the LGBTQ community. For me, as long as the check clear, I'm fine."

      James Phelps agreed. Our genre has been around for nearly 40 years, so to see it blow up and be so well appreciated is amazing.

    • @mmogg4045
      @mmogg4045 Před 6 lety +2

      ok chill? he (OR SHE) said in the video they dont mind being referred to as both. whats delicate here is your sense of reality being threatened so u feel like u need to threaten everyone elses perception of society. why be transphobic when you could just not make a fool of yourself and be respectful of others emotions- like youd want from others.

      Chris Luna this isn't vice, this is vice news. They subdivided their products out 9 million times to broadly, vice, viceland, etc. The only one I continue to follow is Vice News. This was closest to what Vice was back in the day. Oh, and I enjoy Hamilton Morris. So why am I wrong to expect news from Vice News?
