krazyhusband Posted November 19, 2012 Posted November 19, 2012 Did you watch the awards. Singer Christina Aguilera had 2 male dancers who wore heels on stage dancing away.that was a cool moment
dww Posted November 19, 2012 Posted November 19, 2012 Just watched the video on you tube, yes you are right, wonder how many times you had to watch it though before you spotted the heels? took me a few rewinds. life is not a rehearsal
krazyhusband Posted November 19, 2012 Author Posted November 19, 2012 I seen it my first time. Thats one thing will always catch me eye, heels.
krazyhusband Posted November 20, 2012 Author Posted November 20, 2012 Ya, sorry about that. For me, i watched it on the television. How about you DWW, do you have the link?
dirkw01 Posted November 20, 2012 Posted November 20, 2012 Just go to 'Youtube' and enter in the search 'ama madonna'. You will get plenty of entries.
dww Posted November 20, 2012 Posted November 20, 2012 I just went to You Tube and typed in Christina Aguilera and up came a few videos first one was the awards video. You can see one guy clearly in heels right at the end of the video as he walks of stage towards the left. life is not a rehearsal
Gudulitooo Posted November 20, 2012 Posted November 20, 2012 I don't say I found the good video, but at the beginning of the one I saw, the dancers wore black bags on their head with words like "fake", "queen", "freak", "pig", printed on these... Not sure the message is what I expected...
hhboots Posted November 20, 2012 Posted November 20, 2012 Yes Gudilitooo, that is the right video... I am not really a fan of hers, at all, but I do have to say that through most of her career she has always been rather supportive of people that don't fit the ideal mold, such as larger people, lesbian, gay, bisexual, trangendered, etc. I am sure there is some ironic meaning to the guys wearing these black bags with names on them which on the surface doesn't make sense. But you can see throughout the video she has all sorts of different people that don't fit the mold of normal society, so I think this is just her way to support it, even if that doesn't appear to be that way at first glance.
Gudulitooo Posted November 21, 2012 Posted November 21, 2012 hhboots, What you say is what I understood. 3 little things : First, doesn't It look exaggerated to say that a guy that wears heels does not fit the ideal mold ? Second, I am not sure I would have blended the regular "guy that wears heels" image with the "queer" or "female impersonator" image, even for the sake of supporting the cause of people that do not fit the ideal mold. And third, I was not ready to hear that a guy that wear heels (*I*) is called "freak", "pig", "queen" or "fake", even with the support of Ms Aguilera to ironically turn down the idiots who allow themselves to judge and call these names.
Curt Posted November 21, 2012 Posted November 21, 2012 Don't worry how people percieve you. We wear them because we like them. Women did the same thing when they started wearing pants.
