HydraFacial at Ever/Body Brooklyn Desmond Napoles 2023-07-22 | This week was super busy for me between taking a course, working on my new collection, writing an article, modeling and my continuing advocacy work.So I was so grateful to be able to take a self-care day off and get a @HydrafacialOfficial at Ever/Body in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. When I don't have time to properly take care of my skin, I get a lot of acne and my pores get clogged from makeup. The HydraFacial took care of my troubled skin and it was super soft afterwards. Esthetician Kendra did a great job!#everbody #hydrafacial #desmondisamazing #skincare #spaday #selfcare #selfcaretips #brooklyn #nyc #modellife #lgbt #lgbtq #genderfluid Hair color by #britehair

Desmond Napoles: Full Performance for Drag Isnt Dangerous Charity Telethon Desmond Napoles 2023-05-11 | Here is the full 15-minute performance I did for the charity telethon on May 7th called "Drag Isn't Dangerous". For my allotted time, I chose not to do a drag lip sync performance, because I honestly haven't done drag in several years!! Just not my thing anymore since getting interested in designing and fashion. I chose instead to send in a pre-recorded video and be my everyday self in my everyday clothes I like to wear and make a statement on the current anti-LGBTQ+ legislation. I filmed at the Housing Works bookstore in Soho, which is a place I really like. The song is Carl Bean "I Was Born This Way" and is the Moplen Dubs 1 & 2. I used historic footage, but I do not own the copyrights. All rights go to the copyright owners.I know I haven't posted anything on this channel in a long time!! I have been busy doing volunteer work at the public library, doing community service and community advocacy for marginalized communities in New York City, designing shoes for my brand, Be Amazing NYC (www.beamazingnyc.com), and trying to do well in school and prepare for possibly going college or getting a job with the MTA soon. I've also been thinking about getting a job but I'm not sure where I would like to apply yet.

Desmond is Amazing: Positive Message Desmond Napoles 2020-08-15 | I recently saw an article in the news about a little boy who identifies as gender fluid and likes to wear dresses which I thought was super amazing!

Thanks to social distancing, I'm having fun experimenting with different genres of music and types of drag 💃 . Here's my attempt at being a little campy 😁 . I'm performing Ethel Merman's "Everything's Coming Up Roses" from her 1979 disco album 🎵These "digital drag" performances are beginning to make me feel like I am 5 years old again when I would dress up and perform little shows for my family in the living room! 😂🤣😭 Well, I'm keeping myself busy during the pandemic and having a lot of fun too.What should I lip sync to next? Anything crazy, unique, or out of the ordinary you can suggest? I'm open to all genres! I'm really excited about trying new things that maybe I wouldn't perform on a stage in front of an audience...or maybe I would! 🤷♀️😊💕⭐🌈-----------------------------------------------------👉 SUBSCRIBE now for more inspiring stories!

Desmond is Amazing: Bullied by a YouTuber Today Desmond Napoles 2020-02-16 | Response video to the YouTuber who bullied me today, sent their followers to harass me all day, let their followers leave hateful comments all day. Like...seriously? What kind of adult are you? Grow up! Stop hiding behind "concern" when obviously all of your intentions are harmful. Okuuurrrrr! You knew your followers were going to come for me. It's people like you who are the ones abusing me. It's people like you that cause young LGBTQ+ kids and teens to commit suicide. And what's even worse is that this YouTuber identifies with the LGBTQ+ community and instead of doing positive things for another member of the community, they choose to tear another person down. Really sad.And if you don't think this person is bullying me and causing me grief, just read their comments section. -----------------------------------------------------👉 SUBSCRIBE now for more inspiring stories!

Desmond is Amazing: I Was Attacked! Desmond Napoles 2019-10-13 | Just wanted to tell you about an incident that happened Thursday where me and my mom got attacked by a hater in the subway station on our way home from a movie shoot. It's really been bothering me so I wanted to get it off my chest.Basically, a man followed us into an elevator from the L train subway platform at Union Square and started yelling all kinds of things at us and he was bunching his fists up at us and trying push and come at us. My mom was shielding me and defending me. He looked me dead in the eyes and said I was disgusting. My mom said it was none of his business and he said "oh yes it is my business!" It was scary because he followed us for awhile in the station when we got out of the elevator but then he left once he saw we were headed towards where the police station is. We ended up having to file a police report on the person.And you know what? Actually I have a few things I need to go off on, like the fact that people who don't even know me are making up things about my life, posting them to the internet and causing me to be attacked in the subway! Do people even realize that they are hurting and affecting a kid in real life by the things they make up and post? Like, what kind of people want to hurt a kid? I'm not hurting anyone. I'm just out here trying to do good things for other kids and my community and I have haters who come at me and call me disgusting to my face.I'm just really mad about this right now! I'm so tired of the Lies-a-Minnelli! So I grabbed an index card from my backpack and made a list of all the things that I am upset about and put them in this video to share my experiences and opinions about my life and my haters.I also just want to say that I love all of my fans, the Amazies, for being there for me everyday and for following my journey.-----------------------------------------------------👉 SUBSCRIBE now for more inspiring stories!

Desmond is Amazing: 11 Year Old Drag Kid Performing a Lip Sync as Courtney Love Desmond Napoles 2019-02-24 | Desmond is Amazing performing as 90's grunge era Courtney Love. He lip synced to "Asking for It" by Hole.Desmond describes his performance:"My performance was based on Donald Trump saying that you should grab women in their privates, which I don't think is right and anyone who thinks it's okay to touch people like that without their permission is wrong. No one asks for someone to do that. I made a poster with Trump on it that said 'Grab 'Em' for my performance and tore it up and threw it to the audience. I think it is awful that our President would say that about women.I also passed out $45 bills with Trump on them to the audience. I was pretending to be a beauty pageant winner at the beginning of the song and the fake Trump money was my prize money. I saw a documentary on A&E where it said Trump did inappropriate things at the Miss Universe pageants and that disgusted me. I took off my skirt as a reveal to go from dressed as a beauty queen to being a Courtney Love character to match the song. I wasn't stripping. Reveals are normal in drag shows and also in fashion shows. It is meant to wow the audience. I had a knee length dress underneath.I earned some tip money for my performance. People get so bent out of shape over the fact that I get tips. They should come to NYC. I have lived here all my life and I am a New Yorker. Literally, almost every time I am on the subway, kids are selling fruit snacks and candy for extra money. Kids dance in the trains and stations for money. In NYC, you can do anything and make your own way no matter what your age. Should child actors in film and tv and on stage not be paid too? I use my tip money from my performances like an allowance. I buy toys and clothes that I want. I like to collect blind bag Thomas Mini's."------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------👉 SUBSCRIBE now for more inspiring stories!------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Like, follow, and subscribe to Desmond is Amazing on social media:------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Website: desmondisamazing.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/desmondisam...Twitter: twitter.com/desmond_amazingYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/desmondisam...Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/DesmondisAma...Snapchat: https://www.snapchat.com/add/desmond_...------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Check out my merch:------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------"BE YOURSELF ALWAYS" T-shirts:https://www.dragqueenmerch.com/collec...Limited Edition "AMAZIES" and "DRAG SLAYER" Fans:daftboy.com/pages/amazing"METALLIC DRIP LASH" collaboration with Chimera Lashes:https://chimeralashes.com/products/de...------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Who is DESMOND IS AMAZING?------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Desmond is Amazing is a boy who transforms into a drag kid / drag queen.

Desmond is Amazing: 11-Year Old Drag Kid Performing as Gwen Stefani in Brooklyn Desmond Napoles 2019-02-24 | Desmond is Amazing performing in Brooklyn as Gwen Stefani. Song is "Just a Girl" by No Doubt.Here it is! The performance that broke the internet in December 2018! This is THE infamous BROOKLYN performance.Why the scandal? Well, shortly after this performance, the Conservative media went on a bender, claiming that Desmond was stripping, dancing on a pole, moving in a sexual manner, seducing pedophiles, hanging out in a bar around alcohol, was half naked, and gyrating for money. He was coined the Bacha Bazi of Brooklyn.So, let's take a look at this performance, shall we?First of all, stripping is the act of making bare. There is NO clothing removed in this performance. The only thing that was removed was a Barbie's head, which was thrown into the audience.Second, I don't see a stripper pole, do you?Next, if you look at this and see a child moving in a sexual manner, you might have issues. Seriously. Desmond is clearly enjoying his performance and is jumping around like any 11-year old on stage. Desmond obviously loves what he does and is proud of his impersonations. He is a professional, licensed child performer. Pedophiles? I think you'd have better luck finding them in your churches, sports leagues, and summer camps.The venue where Desmond performed did have a bar in a separate room. However, Desmond was only allowed back stage in his private dressing room and on stage. He never entered the bar area. It is not illegal for minors in New York City to be in or perform in venues that serve alcohol if they are with a guardian over 21 years old. Mom and Dad were both there to supervise.Half-naked? Desmond is fully clothed and wearing more clothes than boys allowed to run around shirtless at the beach or even girls at a gymnastics or dance performance. Get over your hypocrisy.Yes, the audience is giving Desmond money. This is customary for drag performances and some performers make a living on tips alone. It has nothing to do with the way you move your body.Lastly, it was reported that there was a "no cell phone policy". False. Clearly, this video was recorded on a cell phone.
