I LIVE. He just radiated smoothness and talent. May he and all the Paris Is Burning divas rest in peace.
Now I must be rude. Madonna did NOT invent voguing. You can look at early Soul Train clips and see voguing LOOOOOOOOOOOOOONG before Madonna ever got a record contract. What she did was borrow from the gay community aka swagger jacking. Know the REAL originators,please.
Willi is, and will be, a phenomena. He stepped on my toes at a party on South Beach! He then turned, profusely apologized and said "Hi, I'm Willi." All I could stammer out was "Yeah, I know!" Descanse en pace, Willi.
@nochokin I'd like to think his dream came true, but I don't think it was that so much as it was Madonna hijacked it, made it something very different and took THAT into the mainstream. I think most people have some concept of what vogue is, but how many of them understand the concept of throwin shade or have ever even heard of Ninja? :/
@Miscreant435 Sadly enough, with the exception of Fredie Pendavis, all of the participants are dead mostly of AIDS related diseases. This should have won an Oscar for Best Documentary.
@biotechb I stand corrected. I saw this Documentary in the 1990's, and it really blew me away. You know what's so sad, so many of these people live what I call "The Tom Ripley Syndrome". In the "Balls" they are Stars, Somebodies and they have Status & Power. Yet when Sunset comes up, and the Balls end, they sometimes may feel like they are nobodies in the Modern World. To me nothing is further from the truth.

Can you buy this movie? This clip has me very interested. I've seen voguing but never really knew the origins. I'm really serious. If anyone knows how I can get my hands on this documentary, please let me know. Thanks :)
The documentary is very interesting and it's called, "Paris is Burning." I think the entire doc is on ytube, but you can definitely rent it on netflix.
If you want to watch it, it's available on YouTube. Just search "Paris is Burning." It's also available on most online stores, or you can ask your local Suncoast to order it, free of charge. :)

Get in that all the "mothers" are dead and gone for being the most foolish the most nasty of the house. Ninjas hit hard all right they hit that glass dick err night no shade. They all look cracked out...well the ones that are left.
all the sissy fags you have such disdain for have far more courage in their sissy ass pinkies than you do in your entire knuckle dragging fucktard body.

Werk Willi! I remember meeting Willi at the Old Shelter in NYC. May he RIP.
At 1:08 , who is the girl voguing against Bianca Xtrava? I always thought that might be Belinda Chanel but not sure. Would anyone know?

@OriJanelGangsta I remember seeing Voguing on Soul Train and American Bandstand in the 1970's way before Madonna appeared on the show.
