I've just watched Pose for the first time and Elektra is the best character in the show, and on TV in general, in years!
I should add I ADORE the entire cast. They were phenomenal. Elektra just spoke to me more.
Her and MJ Rodriguez aka Blanca are my two fav
Same I just finished season one and this show and her character are everything
She was fantastic
When you consider everything she has been through...her strength, poise, confidence and character is so inspirational. Love her
I learned so much from the beautiful artists who gave us 'POSE'. Such brilliant work and such an important accomplishment that has positively affected the lives of so many!
This show is so important to the young and undiscovered. Thank to the writers!! Actors!!! And all those involved making this possible
I truly love Pose. I can’t even express it enough. I rewatch it almost every month! When im happy and sad or whatever! Truly beautiful!
Having lived through those times I barely got through Season 1 it was so emotional for me, yet I still loved it. I tried watching Season 2 & saw 2 episodes & had to stop it was too intense. Most of the stories are all too relatable. Dominique, Billy & the cast brought the well written scripts to life. I can't imagine what it was like to have to act them out like they did. True professionals, all of them!
This series and their performances were stunning. Each of their stories were riveting. It caught me off guard. Kudos to all of them.
She’s an icon, she’s a legend and she’s the moment. Come on now.
Live, Werk, Pose !🌈❤️ They deserve all the awards!
She’s so sweet. Shining so brightly, much deserved.
I need her to portray storm because i know she would do it phenomenally!
She is *phenomenal.*
I just finished watching this show for the 2nd time ❤ this show was so real and beautiful I remember crying with Pray and Blanca’s characters. I am not queer but I love to hear true stories express my empathy for others. It’s was bittersweet the show came to a end but the way each character truly related to their personal lives thoroughly was beautiful ❤❤ definitely will tune in for a 3rd time down the road for sure 🫶🏽
Ms. Dominique, the entire cast directors and producers gave us such a gift with “Pose!!”
Every single second of this groundbreaking show gave an emotional educational to the lives of a culture we had no idea existed and most Nee Yorkers ignored. Let me tell you I am this show opened and broke my heart. I laughed , I cried , I fumed, and mostly I learned. I can truly say that “Pose” is one of the most phenomenal shows to grace the screen, period!
Live Werk Pose!!!!
🎊 🎉 ❤
I have watched POSE and can only say transgender women are everything...strong, beautiful, they fight...I want her to be my mum. I am no woman let me tell you...I don't know why human specie is so horrible..
I just don't understand...let everyone be!!!!!
Same I wish that was my mom too 😢
I absolutely love this show ! I am a white 52 year old woman. The stories and the relationships of the characters touched my heart
Domimque ny home is great oct 6 2023
So many tears
Thank you so much for this show. Blanca is such an inspiration to me. As an older gay Asian leatherman, I strongly feel that I need to give back to my community by helping and mentoring young Asian gay men coming into the kink community.
OMG!!! I Loved a POSE. I’m so Sad to see it end. I Loved Domingue on the Show. She is a Beautiful Soul. I Love her voice. So refined. I loved all of the Characters. This show brings Awareness of what ppl go through. Luckily Electra was Fabulous Character. Sad what ppl put other ppl through. It is a Celebration of ALL HUMANS NO MATTER THEIR CHOICES IN LIFE. Anyone who has been discriminated enough. Ppl need to be KIND TO OTHER PPL. Hope they do a Spin-off. Love you Much.
HE IS DISHONEST

@@drumtwo4seven delete your account
@@drumtwo4seven you’re a horrible person for coming on here and attacking someone after they are being vulnerable. Shame on you and shame on whatever you believe in that makes you think so hatefully, I pray you find love and acceptance in your heart. This is not how someone should act.

I just watched pose for the third time. I love the show and all of the cast members .
I LOVE her!!! So elegant and lovely.
Dominique and Billy are very beautiful and talented people! Love them 💕
I'm in tears ...I'll be back soon to post and actual comment.
I’m sorry for the bad memories , God Bless you all , I miss this show 100%
Dominique is truly the most glamorous woman on the planet. Gorgeous and stunning! 💖
Thank you to the cast of Pose for the representation of Black/Brown brothers and sisters within the LGBTQ community. ❤️🏳️🌈
OMG QUEEN MOTHER ELEKTRA!
🤩💖🎊🎉🙆♀️🏳️⚧️ YOU'VE HELPED ME AND COUNTLESS OTHERS IN OUR JOURNEYS! 💖💖💖 BLESS YOUR SWEET SOUL!
I’ve never seen Pose but after watching this interview I’m def going to check it out.
Very very good show! I can't tell you how many times I have watched it.
You all should check out the reality show Strut. It's about 5 transgender models and a transgender modeling agency. Dominique Jackson is one of the models. It came out before Pose. I knew who Dominique Jackson was before Pose. She was regal and beautiful, on the modeling show., and her cheekbones were to die for! I'm glad that she blew up.
Love her and her katan set
I adore her so much 💗
And I really REALLY love Billy Porter!!
it’s crazy because as I watched the show I picked up this was not only a reality for a lot of people but it was a reality for the cast members themselfs meaning I felt they had imported personal expieriences into their character
National treasure. Icon. Queen.

kids if you love pose please please please watch paris is burning on youtube.. its the foundation of pose & drag race
I love her sword collection ⚔️
Claimed with positivity ❤️
Wish Pose came back again ❤
she always reminds me of Elektra Abundance-Evangelista ❤
Mikaela is STUNNING omg! 😍
Dominique is stunning!! Face is perfection!
I give Dominique much credit for reclaiming her faith, and to the directors of Pose that projected ‘family’. At Middle age, I can see how that tenet is lost on some up and coming youth in the community now. This has always been a criticism of older 🏳️🌈 on younger 🏳️🌈 however. At 44 I see how and why that community anger is always such a friction point internally. It is what made Pose such a good series. That friction point was addressed in almost every episode. Privilege was not an option for the characters in that series, and is often not awarded to many LGTBQIA youth (in New York or Anywhere)…..how that dynamic is discussed and projected is so important. Being Trans is not a Musical or a ballroom for many, even if they sing and dance through the struggles. Its a delicate runway to strut. God is good.
She is so pretty!!
The queen of read elektra abundance i just love love love her❤❤❤❤❤
I like what Dominique said about Faith ❤😢
She is beautiful 🤩
❤️❤️❤️❤️
Pose was amazing, Dominique is a queen period😍😍
THANK YOU BILLY PORTER & THE REST 🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈 I love yall so much ❤
Pose was a fantastic show.
SHE'S SUCH A CLASSLY LOOKING LADY. THIS IS THE FRIST TIME I EVER SEAN THIS SHOW. i HAD NO IDEA SHE'S TRANS. SHE LOOKS LIKE A REAL WOMAN AND SHE IS SO BEAUTIFUL. I WILL NEVER MEET HER BUT I AM SO HAPPY FOR HER. IF SHE WAS A TEEN IN THE 80S, THEN SHE'S GOTTA BE LIKIE IN HER 50'S NOW OR SOMETHING. sHE LOOKS LIKE SHE 25 AND ATHLETIC! AMAZAING! JUST AMAMZING!
She IS a real woman. She looks CIS/biological woman.
@@shadofortuna no she is not real woman is not dress and makeup .
I think she would a perfect Storm: tall, strong, beautiful.
If you are triggered by this report you can't simply accept other peoples lifestyle.
NICE TRY
So basically a guy walks around in women's clothing and wants everyone around him to also pretend that he is a woman
@@drumtwo4seven Nice try what? Why does it matter if a "guy" walks around in womens cloths? Sheep to peer pressure
@@drumtwo4seven*crickets*
💛💚💙💜❤️💛💚💙💜❤️#Pose I hope it will be a start of many shows to Rebirth 💛💚💙💜❤️ because #transgenders been here for centuries 💛💚💙💜❤️
She’s gorgeous
💖
I ❤ Pose
The definition of queer excellence ❤
She is the epitome of class.
Just gorgeous
proud
Mother Elektra!!!
I'm still waiting for them to announce that she's the new Storm for the new X-Men movie reboot. She would kill it as Storm 😚😚
That will never happen.🤣
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
