It’s not only about the parties, but<br />
showing the message of love, and<br />
just to be together with people<br />
who love music.<br />
You write your own songs as<br />
well?<br />
Yes, I write my own songs. I started<br />
to write when I was very, very<br />
young. I always like writing English,<br />
and I like electronic music. In Brazil<br />
it’s very hard for you to release a<br />
song in English. When I started to<br />
do my music in English, some of<br />
the DJs started to listen, and they<br />
offered to remix it. Suddenly I was<br />
doing electronic music in clubs. I<br />
didn’t expect that; it was a surprise<br />
for me. I didn’t plan it, but it was<br />
amazing. My biggest dream was to<br />
play at The Week, which is one of<br />
the biggest gay clubs<br />
in the world. I love<br />
the club, and it was<br />
my dream one day to<br />
perform there. Then<br />
one day the owner of<br />
The Week called me<br />
said he listened to<br />
one of my songs, and<br />
then he asked me to<br />
perform there. I was<br />
shocked. It was my<br />
dream to be there,<br />
and I wondered what<br />
would I be doing<br />
next if this was my<br />
first show. It was<br />
super cool, and I<br />
started to do a show<br />
there every month.<br />
They taught me so<br />
many things. After<br />
that I started to do<br />
clubs and music all<br />
over.<br />
What a cool story.<br />
It’s so exciting. So,<br />
if you could say anything in the<br />
world to your fans and followers,<br />
what would that be?<br />
I would say to keep being so happy<br />
and keep making people so happy.<br />
Despite all the problems that we<br />
have, all the homophobic people,<br />
all the laws that sometimes don’t<br />
protect the gay people, despite all<br />
of that, they are the most happy<br />
people that I’ve ever met in my<br />
life. That’s why I fell in love with<br />
them, and that’s why I say that I<br />
am a gay man in a woman’s body.<br />
They make people happy. They<br />
are always smiling. And if I could<br />
say something, I would say keep<br />
smiling, and I will keep doing my<br />
songs for them, because I have so<br />
much love for them, and they give<br />
so much love back.<br />
