532
00:24:01,600 --> 00:24:04,760

00:24:04,840 --> 00:24:06,919
Speaker 1: like Crystal met fucking degenerates.

534
00:24:07,359 --> 00:24:08,439
Speaker 5: You have abandoned the issues.

Speaker 1: I think we all do. I know. Yeah, yeah, yeah,

536
00:24:12,520 --> 00:24:14,400

Speaker 1: Now my father Okay, so he told me I got

552
00:25:07,960 --> 00:25:09,679
Speaker 1: that one beating when I was younger.

553
00:25:09,840 --> 00:25:12,480
Speaker 4: I'll be honest, did you come out out to him?

554
00:25:12,640 --> 00:25:13,359
Speaker 4: Or did you?

555
00:25:13,560 --> 00:25:19,000
Speaker 1: Was never in you? You were singing shou y you

556
00:25:18,240 --> 00:25:19,160
Speaker 1: were you.

557
00:25:19,160 --> 00:25:25,080
Speaker 2: Were like a course line Eliza and Lvhs's and they

558
00:25:25,119 --> 00:25:25,800
Speaker 2: knew right away.

559
00:25:25,920 --> 00:25:27,800
Speaker 1: I was three years old. I was in love with

560
00:25:27,840 --> 00:25:32,439
Speaker 1: Donny Osmond and the Monkeys. Who was the Monkeys Davy Jones.

561
00:25:33,400 --> 00:25:35,879
Speaker 1: So I didn't know what gay was. I didn't know,

562
00:25:35,960 --> 00:25:38,119
Speaker 1: but I told my mother I'm going to marry Donny Osmon,

563
00:25:38,400 --> 00:25:40,080
Speaker 1: and here I am. I had a towel on my

564
00:25:40,119 --> 00:25:43,920
Speaker 1: head and our heels. They couldn't stop me. So they like,

565
00:25:43,960 --> 00:25:46,760
Speaker 1: when did you come out? Cosmo? I was never in right,

566
00:25:47,040 --> 00:25:49,560
Speaker 1: like I came strumming up, you know. But my father

567
00:25:49,600 --> 00:25:52,600
Speaker 1: was in the mob. So one day my older brother's

568
00:25:52,600 --> 00:25:57,640
Speaker 1: playing basketball, so he's with all of his friends in Harlem, right,

569
00:25:58,240 --> 00:26:01,080
Speaker 1: so he's mortified that I'm gay. My older brother, you

570
00:26:01,160 --> 00:26:02,960
Speaker 1: know what I mean. My father was okay with it

571
00:26:03,000 --> 00:26:04,879
Speaker 1: because he knew I was going to be like somewhat

572
00:26:04,920 --> 00:26:08,760
Speaker 1: successful after the drug addiction, of course. But so I'm

573
00:26:08,800 --> 00:26:11,119
Speaker 1: in the park and I'm like Tommy and I'm running

574
00:26:11,160 --> 00:26:13,440
Speaker 1: like a girl because I always wanted to run like this,

575
00:26:13,920 --> 00:26:16,560
Speaker 1: you know, like my aunts, my mother's sisters. I thought it.

576
00:26:17,040 --> 00:26:18,880
Speaker 1: So I thought it was normal to run like this.

577
00:26:19,119 --> 00:26:23,000
Speaker 1: So anyway, Tommy comes home from playing basketball. He goes, Dad,

578
00:26:23,359 --> 00:26:26,920
Speaker 1: Cosmo embarrassed me on purpose. He acts like a fag

579
00:26:27,119 --> 00:26:30,040
Speaker 1: on purpose. I didn't act like a fag on purpose.

580
00:26:30,040 --> 00:26:33,480
Speaker 1: That's how I was, you know what I mean. I'm like, Tommy,

581
00:26:33,560 --> 00:26:35,280
Speaker 1: I was so happy, you know, it's being in the park,

582
00:26:35,320 --> 00:26:38,960
Speaker 1: and I thought it was perfectly normal. So he goes,

583
00:26:39,119 --> 00:26:41,919
Speaker 1: how dare you embarrass your brother? So I got that

584
00:26:42,000 --> 00:26:44,960
Speaker 1: one beating like maybe he's not going to be gay anymore,

585
00:26:45,160 --> 00:26:47,119
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. But I came out of

586
00:26:47,160 --> 00:26:50,560
Speaker 1: the fucking the beating like you know, you know what

587
00:26:50,600 --> 00:26:55,520
Speaker 1: I mean, or doing a runway more gay. So then

588
00:26:55,560 --> 00:26:57,960
Speaker 1: my father told me. He goes, I work with a

589
00:26:57,960 --> 00:27:00,119
Speaker 1: lot of gay people. I'm in the club scene. And

590
00:27:00,160 --> 00:27:02,239
Speaker 1: he goes, I just don't want this life for you

591
00:27:02,320 --> 00:27:05,160
Speaker 1: because I think you're going to be unhappy. He goes,

592
00:27:05,280 --> 00:27:08,399
Speaker 1: and I love you very much. So long story short,

593
00:27:08,480 --> 00:27:11,439
Speaker 1: I became a hairdresser. I was the first one to

594
00:27:11,480 --> 00:27:15,119
Speaker 1: open my own business. So before he died, he wanted

595
00:27:15,119 --> 00:27:18,119
Speaker 1: me by his bed, so he always loved and supported me.

596
00:27:18,280 --> 00:27:20,240
Speaker 1: That's great because it doesn't always work out that way.

597
00:27:20,359 --> 00:27:22,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a lot of people get rejected by their

598
00:27:22,680 --> 00:27:26,360
Speaker 2: there's so many tough Italian you're right, right.

599
00:27:26,520 --> 00:27:29,879
Speaker 1: But even in the South people getting thrown out. Like

600
00:27:29,960 --> 00:27:31,520
Speaker 1: if you see the all around the world, you see

601
00:27:31,520 --> 00:27:34,520
Speaker 1: mostly homeless gay people, you know in the streets. It's

602
00:27:34,560 --> 00:27:37,919
Speaker 1: because they were their parents didn't support them. So I

603
00:27:38,000 --> 00:27:41,359
Speaker 1: blamed the parents, I really do. That's why I wish

604
00:27:41,359 --> 00:27:44,160
Speaker 1: some people would come out, like big celebrities.

605
00:27:43,520 --> 00:27:45,000
Speaker 5: Like you know who and you know who?

606
00:27:46,400 --> 00:27:48,520
Speaker 4: Donald Trump is gay. They're saying, I'm.

00:43:42,719 --> 00:43:47,040
Speaker 1: all that. Back in the days she first she was

937
00:43:47,200 --> 00:43:51,680
Speaker 1: instant cun yeah, instant cun yeah, and everybody knows about it,

938
00:43:51,760 --> 00:43:51,920
Speaker 1: you know.

939
00:43:52,040 --> 00:43:53,799
Speaker 4: Yeah, she came mellowed out.

940
00:43:53,880 --> 00:43:56,880
Speaker 1: I think after the kids, like and I went to

941
00:43:57,000 --> 00:43:59,440
Speaker 1: a concert and it just seemed like a different Madonna.

942
00:43:59,600 --> 00:44:01,320
Speaker 1: I think the kids change your perspective.

943
00:44:01,400 --> 00:44:03,600
Speaker 4: They changed her little yea. They make you not so

944
00:44:03,760 --> 00:44:04,839
Speaker 4: worried about the small things.

945
00:44:04,960 --> 00:44:05,799
Speaker 3: Yeah. Yeah.

946
00:44:06,080 --> 00:44:09,359
Speaker 2: Deontay Wilder, Okay, so he said you lost him the fight.

947
00:44:10,200 --> 00:44:13,320
Speaker 2: This is so, can I give a little so Deontay

948
00:44:13,400 --> 00:44:17,040
Speaker 2: Wilder very famous boxer. He fights Tyson Fury, another one

949
00:44:17,040 --> 00:44:19,759
Speaker 2: of the best heavyweights in the world. There's two Titans, right,

950
00:44:19,840 --> 00:44:21,959
Speaker 2: These guys are gigantic to the best boxers in the world.

951
00:44:22,360 --> 00:44:25,840
Speaker 2: Tyson Fury has a little bit better strategy. He knows defense,

952
00:44:25,920 --> 00:44:28,480
Speaker 2: he knows how to fuck with Deontay. Deontay just has

953
00:44:28,560 --> 00:44:30,640
Speaker 2: this mega punch wherever he lands at your toast. So

954
00:44:30,840 --> 00:44:34,719
Speaker 2: you do the crazy helmet he wore for that fight,

955
00:44:34,840 --> 00:44:38,440
Speaker 2: for that final fight, I did five fights. You did

956
00:44:38,480 --> 00:44:40,239
Speaker 2: five fights previous, but you did the final fight. You

957
00:44:40,280 --> 00:44:42,359
Speaker 2: did the final fight with Tyson Fury. Correct, I did

958
00:44:42,400 --> 00:44:44,920
Speaker 2: the fight, so he hires you. Doesn't final fight. You

959
00:44:44,960 --> 00:44:46,319
Speaker 2: can make up this crazy thing.

960
00:44:46,480 --> 00:44:46,600
Speaker 1: You know.

961
00:44:46,800 --> 00:44:50,160
Speaker 2: These guys have a big, flashy Liberaci entrance. But Tyson

962
00:44:50,200 --> 00:44:51,880
Speaker 2: Fury is coming out like a king. He looks like

963
00:44:51,920 --> 00:44:54,360
Speaker 2: the fucking King of Hearts or whatever it looks. But

964
00:44:54,440 --> 00:44:55,439
Speaker 2: it looked like party city.

965
00:44:55,680 --> 00:44:55,879
Speaker 3: Yeah.

966
00:44:56,040 --> 00:44:59,400
Speaker 1: I was cheaper, had much.

967
00:44:59,280 --> 00:45:02,479
Speaker 2: More creative outfit, but he had a heavy he says

968
00:45:02,560 --> 00:45:04,880
Speaker 2: he had a heavy helmets.

969
00:45:04,920 --> 00:45:05,680
Speaker 3: Like you know what you do.

970
00:45:06,080 --> 00:45:08,400
Speaker 2: You test a helmet on, you test, You do a

971
00:45:08,480 --> 00:45:11,520
Speaker 2: fitting before you do any any performance. There's tests, there's

972
00:45:11,560 --> 00:45:14,920
Speaker 2: makeup tests, there's there's hair tests, and you put on

973
00:45:15,160 --> 00:45:17,440
Speaker 2: your outfit. There's a fitting and you see what's comfortable.

974
00:45:17,480 --> 00:45:18,160
Speaker 4: It's not what you like.

975
00:45:18,239 --> 00:45:19,040
Speaker 1: You take pictures of it.

976
00:45:19,320 --> 00:45:21,360
Speaker 2: You have time to decide. You don't put it on

977
00:45:21,480 --> 00:45:23,080
Speaker 2: on the day right before you go out there and

978
00:45:23,120 --> 00:45:25,440
Speaker 2: complain about it. So it's a little bit of bullshit.

979
00:45:25,600 --> 00:45:28,320
Speaker 2: And the guy lost look so he puts on the

980
00:45:28,480 --> 00:45:29,759
Speaker 2: he put and I met him on an airplane. It

981
00:45:29,800 --> 00:45:31,520
Speaker 2: is very nice, but he's got the scariest punch in

982
00:45:31,560 --> 00:45:31,799
Speaker 2: the world.

983
00:45:31,840 --> 00:45:32,640

Speaker 1: He said, well, okay, we're gonna make her for you.

00:46:05,200 --> 00:46:05,359
Speaker 3: Yeah.

1000
00:46:05,600 --> 00:46:08,759
Speaker 1: So it was voted the best ring walk outfit and

1001
00:46:09,040 --> 00:46:10,560
Speaker 1: boxing history.

1002
00:46:10,600 --> 00:46:11,520
Speaker 4: Yeah, it looks incredible.

1003
00:46:11,760 --> 00:46:17,080
Speaker 1: Okay, but the Caesars Palace didn't close the lights. Otherwise

1004
00:46:17,120 --> 00:46:19,239
Speaker 1: you would have seen laser beams coming out of it,

1005
00:46:20,000 --> 00:46:22,200
Speaker 1: so they fucked up with the lights. We did a

1006
00:46:22,320 --> 00:46:25,400
Speaker 1: dress rehearsal the day before. You're so right. He tried

1007
00:46:25,440 --> 00:46:28,640
Speaker 1: it on in the hotel room Seesars Palace. We did

1008
00:46:28,800 --> 00:46:32,360
Speaker 1: everything fit. It wasn't too heavy. He loved the outfit.

1009
00:46:32,719 --> 00:46:34,680
Speaker 1: The day of the fight, I go in the locker

1010
00:46:34,760 --> 00:46:37,880
Speaker 1: room and he's in there and he's not himself. I

1011
00:46:37,960 --> 00:46:40,120
Speaker 1: think Fury got in his head because when you go

1012
00:46:40,160 --> 00:46:43,600
Speaker 1: to Vegas, you see Fury, Fury, Fury on every hotel.

1013
00:46:44,200 --> 00:46:44,960
Speaker 1: So you know what I mean.

1014
00:46:45,160 --> 00:46:47,120
Speaker 2: And that's what Mike Tyson said in his documentary. He goes,

1015
00:46:47,160 --> 00:46:49,239
Speaker 2: boxing is all psychological. Yeah, he goes, I could beat

1016
00:46:49,320 --> 00:46:50,799
Speaker 2: up a guy twice my size and a guy half

1017
00:46:50,840 --> 00:46:53,279
Speaker 2: my size could beat the shit out of me. All psychological.

1018
00:46:53,360 --> 00:46:55,359
Speaker 2: You have a bad day, you're fucking in your head.

1019
00:46:55,560 --> 00:46:58,719
Speaker 1: Every fight I with, he's all happy, go lucky, you

1020
00:46:58,800 --> 00:47:00,520
Speaker 1: know what I mean. He won a few them with me.

1021
00:47:00,960 --> 00:47:04,400
Speaker 1: The outfits were amazing. He didn't look like Party City anymore.

1022
00:47:04,840 --> 00:47:08,400
Speaker 1: His girlfriend Kelly, you know Telly. So anyway, she's the

1023
00:47:08,480 --> 00:47:10,680
Speaker 1: one who brought him in the store. You know, she's

1024
00:47:10,719 --> 00:47:12,720
Speaker 1: my boyfriend's a fighter. This is what he's wearing.

1025
00:47:13,239 --> 00:47:15,759
Speaker 4: And I'm like, oh, she was the connector. She had

1026
00:47:15,800 --> 00:47:16,400
Speaker 4: the stop like.

1027
00:47:16,520 --> 00:47:18,719
Speaker 1: Is he really wearing that? That looks like party City?

1028
00:47:18,880 --> 00:47:19,160
Speaker 3: Right right?

1029
00:47:19,280 --> 00:47:22,279
Speaker 1: And you know she goes and this guy's fighting the best.

1030
00:47:22,840 --> 00:47:25,439
Speaker 1: What could you do? We did five outfits then cut

00:48:23,200 --> 00:48:25,440
Speaker 1: I'm like, i gotta walk. So we walk out and

1052
00:48:25,520 --> 00:48:27,759

1057
00:48:42,880 --> 00:48:44,279
Speaker 1: I thought it was gonna be all gro It was

1058
00:48:44,400 --> 00:48:46,960
Speaker 1: just a nightmare. It was a nightmare. Some like as

1059
00:48:47,000 --> 00:48:50,560
Speaker 1: soon as we hit uh, Caesar's powers cursed. So I

1060
00:48:50,640 --> 00:48:54,320
Speaker 1: go sit down and my beat in my seat. Siance

1061
00:48:54,520 --> 00:48:57,440
Speaker 1: goes to fight and then all of a sudden, I'm like,

1062
00:48:58,239 --> 00:49:01,200
Speaker 1: oh my god, guy's getting this like.

1063
00:49:01,239 --> 00:49:04,920
Speaker 3: A rag doll. That fight. I could not.

1064
00:49:05,000 --> 00:49:07,600
Speaker 2: Believe it, but there was I'll tell you, I'm not

1065
00:49:07,680 --> 00:49:09,960
Speaker 2: a boxing expert, but Tyson Fury went into that fight

1066
00:49:09,960 --> 00:49:12,920
Speaker 2: because they fought before, and Deontay knocked him down right,

1067
00:49:13,000 --> 00:49:15,520
Speaker 2: and the guy's like Frankenstein. He got back up from

1068
00:49:15,560 --> 00:49:17,400
Speaker 2: the heart punch of the way right, getting punched by

1069
00:49:17,440 --> 00:49:20,080
Speaker 2: Deontay's like getting hit with a fucking metal baseball bat,

1070
00:49:20,440 --> 00:49:22,600
Speaker 2: you know, I mean, like a bat to the skull.

1071
00:49:22,760 --> 00:49:24,759
Speaker 2: So the fact that Tyson Fury got up from the

1072
00:49:24,800 --> 00:49:26,160
Speaker 2: first fight is insane.

1073
00:49:26,440 --> 00:49:27,920
Speaker 1: Right, He did a thing.

1074
00:49:28,840 --> 00:49:33,439
Speaker 2: He went into that with a strategy specifically for Deontay Wilder,

1075
00:49:33,440 --> 00:49:35,920
Speaker 2: because he knows Deontay is all about that punch. He's

1076
00:49:35,960 --> 00:49:38,360
Speaker 2: not about defense, he's not about other skills. He's just like,

1077
00:49:38,480 --> 00:49:41,280
Speaker 2: if you get hit by that punch, your fuck So Tyson,

1078
00:49:41,400 --> 00:49:44,600
Speaker 2: if you watch again, Tyson, Fury is constantly just holding

1079
00:49:44,680 --> 00:49:46,560
Speaker 2: onto him and draining.

1080
00:49:46,280 --> 00:49:49,800
Speaker 1: His energy, energy, draining his energy, draining his energy.

1081
00:49:50,239 --> 00:49:52,840
Speaker 2: So by the whatever fifth or sixth round, then he

1082
00:49:52,960 --> 00:49:55,680
Speaker 2: starts fucking digging him up, and Deontay doesn't have the

1083
00:49:55,920 --> 00:49:59,720
Speaker 2: energy left to do his signature fucking Mortal Kombat punch.

1084
00:50:00,239 --> 00:50:03,160
Speaker 2: So he really Tyson went into that fight really kind

1085
00:50:03,200 --> 00:50:08,400
Speaker 2: of educated and had a customized attack for that specific fighter,

1086
00:50:08,480 --> 00:50:11,759
Speaker 2: and that's what fucked him up through the Yeah, but

1087
00:50:12,400 --> 00:50:14,880
Speaker 2: most fighters when they fight Deonte, they just are shitting

1088
00:50:14,880 --> 00:50:16,600
Speaker 2: and pissing their pants and they get hit by that one, right.

1089
00:50:17,440 --> 00:50:19,239
Speaker 2: But he doesn't have a good defense. He doesn't have

1090
00:50:19,480 --> 00:50:21,640
Speaker 2: He just knows how to fucking nail you that. I

1091
00:50:21,719 --> 00:50:23,160
Speaker 2: wish he was a better fighter, but.

1092
00:50:23,239 --> 00:50:25,239

1093
00:50:25,360 --> 00:50:28,600
Speaker 1: that mask that that you created for him. Give me

1094
00:50:28,680 --> 00:50:32,960
Speaker 1: a break. It's up to the fighter to fight, it's

1095
00:50:33,040 --> 00:50:34,520
Speaker 1: up to the athlete to perform.
