The interviewer is so good here. He's patient, doesn't butt in or talk over his guest, and if trixie seems stuck on a question he helps her out. So rare to see.
Plus he’s so cute
And amazing questions! He’s also very knowledgeable about Trixie and her career.
The convo felt very natural, just the set is awkward .
he sucks
The interviewer does a great job of having Trixie knowledge, but not pandering to her. He's an excellent interviewer. I think people are getting way too used to interviewers who spend the entire time telling the subject how much they worship them.
I'm more than a little amazed that as a middle-aged gay man who was raised by NYC drag queens, I'm witnessing an era where a queen in a hot pink wig is being interviewed seriously by a major mainstream business publication. Let's take a moment to appreciate that little miracle. And for good reason: Tracey is a freakin' mogul.
trixie mattel is a sweet funny fluffy bunny, tracey martel is a mogul!!! lol. i honestly think tracey when she's being serious.
And Im appreciative how you in some way paved that.
Attention whore. You’re saying this because this unknown media company paid you. Yes Trixie is great but your post is fake news to promote this so called mainstream media outlet Ive never heard of them until Trixie sat down with them try again loser.
Giving us high school guidance counsellor realness
*going thru a midlife crisis
Highschool guidance councler that can also cure addictions
She's not here for a long time she's just here for a good time
HAHAHAHAH!!!
The way she talks about Katya...it just melts my heart, it feels like they're family. They both deserve so much love and good in life. Queens.
NussyBeth I totally feel the same way. I love them both.
100% agree. It's the best
Trixie Mattel is one smart cookie: informed, articulate, quick-witted, funny, interested, always interesting. A terrific interview, helped by an interviewer who asked good questions then shut up, giving his subject the chance to shine.
look at that biological woman with her daytime make-up 😍
jess what makeup?
Tracy is a natural beauty!
A biological woman under extremely hateful lighting
Dicks Lexic EXTREMELY
@@ChrisiMeow Tracy? I cant. 🤣
He's insanely well spoken. Not many are able to translate their thoughts like that as well as adding humour. MY president
I'm like genuinely so emotional over the fact that she's acknowledging her lesbian fans like considering how focused on male gays drag tends to be, this really means so much to me idek
She always puts on Twitter morning lesbians only 😂
@@lisamac1986 a true icon whomst we stan
I agree.
I know! I felt so happy and loved
Agreed it’s a rare point of focus. Well said
Noone: Talking about how amazing this interview is
Everyone: THISSS LIGHTING IS TERRIBLE
True
I know right... It could've been so much better in the lighting department but the content is amazing, you can just listen if it bothers you that much
Hey! At least 1/5 of us are thirsting after the interviewer and ignoring the entire interview.
Terrible terrible terrible, this lightning is terrible terrible terrible
Maybe it’s in Seattle
The editors of UNhhh are equally the stars of that show.
The interviewer is excellent, so relaxed and natural but genuinely insightful and adapting his questions with each answer. Superb content.
TopangaMatthews it’s a great interview, but I mean the lighting…
Yeah, the lighting is a hate crime@@_roy_1_me643
“I have a girl cry in my arms everyday”
I was once that girl
Hanana Banana still waiting to be that girl
dreaming to be that girl
She hates you, djoodie...
i dream to be that girl
Let's all group up and just tackle Trixie and start crying
"mostly gay women" made my heart so soft
I'm like crying or whatever
@MissDroplette Thank you. I love Bianca but her lesbian jokes are so... tired and unoriginal. Like, this may come as a surprise to many but you can be gay without being misogynist and/or lesbophobic.
@MissDroplette I completely agree. My absolute favourite thing about Trixie is whenever she's talking about gay women it's always so postive and loving and kind. She talks about how loyal they are or how great gay girls are. This one girl had given her a lesbian flag to sign and she'd been so excited, she'd insisted she gets a picture with it immeadiately. It's so nice that in a space like drag where women are constantly being excluded or undermined or like you said made fun of, she's not participating in that.
“A lot of women like me” Me: hair flip Trixie: “a lot of gay women too” Me: bigger hair flip
I know she might roll her eyes at this, but I'm so glad Trixie exists.
Same. I've (sadly) only been a fan for a short while, but Im so glad I found her eventually.
I knew Katya is a recovering addict but had no idea she was struggling recently & so much that she decided to go to rehab. My heart goes out to her & I see shes back now but I hope she really is doing well. Being an addict is hard but I believe in Katya & hope she does well!
It was last year and she put a status on Twitter and it was so heartbreaking to read. I’m glad she’s better now too
it's last year. She's touring now and she'll come to our country. can't wait to see her!!
She's talked about it a lot on her podcast whimsically volatile. They started taping pretty much as soon as she was out of rehab
@@dylansimpson7831 Best podcast ever... especially those first 10 or something where it was very personal :)
@@Bakabana77 the episode with gia gunn actually really got me gal
The amount of homophobia within the lighting department... far too much...
Latrice!
this is so many memes in one
Big mistake.. HuGe
Or Her contouring is homophobic 😂
Yeah I was like she made her make up so dark and then I realize that the lightning is in fact very bad !!
My mom trixie with her all naturale lip balm tinted moisturizer make up look. 💖
K Look at her! She doesn’t wear makeup because she doesn’t need it!
Clear mascara for the win
It's just a little chapstick
K an absolute natural beauty
This interviewer is so great! Generally interested by what Trixie had to say, understood her jokes, but also knew how to keep the conversation going.
Screw the admittedly hideous lighting this is the best interview I've ever seen in my entire life, not just Trixie but a skilled interviewer who brought out the best in her.
I love a drag queen that is a real gender clown. I've always appretiated that Trixie doesn't try to embody femininity, and instead embodies and mocks feminine stereotypes. She brought that up when talking about her female fan base/pink merch and I stan.
Yea exactly.. uses her man voice.. the overdone over the top face paint style.. the pink.. the PINK.. haha. I love that there are so many styles and subcultures of drag
She's fantastic 😁
@Beautiful Irish you missed the point entirely
@Beautiful Irish Read and comprehend. "Female stereotypes" ie: small/narrow nose, defined cheekbones, big lips, high arching eyebrows, long lashes, etc. Now look at Trixie - all of what I mentioned but amped up by 100.
This lighting in the video is awful and does not do her make up justice btw.
gaarde peffer you missed the point. he mocks the bad stereotypes about women in support. how is that confusing?
@Travel Lover women are tired of the stupid stereotypes placed on us by society. So we appreciate a Queen like Trixie who mocks them and exposes how dumb those expectations are. We feel like she sees us which you certainly are not.
I really do think they need to do shows on suicide and other mental illness. As an attempted suicide survivor, I think it would actually be very healing for Trixie and Katya to put a hilarious spin on it. It needs to be talked about and I think they would be the perfect people to approach it without judgement and make an opening perspective.
Benjamin Deffner Yes!!
+
The best interview with Trixie ever.
9:43 "I just saw RuPaul recently and he was like, 'You're doing things no one's ever done, not even me.'
And then he said, 'Get the hell out of my house.'"
This was Trixie's best interview she has ever given. Bravo!
Trixie looks like a high school councilor who is also an avon lady that will not leave your house until you buy something
Omg this made me Latrice laugh 😂😂😂
HAHAHAH DEAD 💀💀💀
I know that lady tbh lol
And now we know why Rupaul said "get out of my house"
I see Trixie is rocking natural soft make up today
this comment has me YELLING 💀
C'mon guys....learn how to light a drag queen.
I knowww right? She looks like she has no eyes... More than usual
Right.... THERE'S NO BACK LIGHTING IN DRAG
Jackie Huba thank you!! It makes her contour look more harsh than usual!
Jackie Huba THOUGHT THE SAME THING
They need waterboarding for doing that to my Barbara!
Interviewer: Is there anything you two *want* to talk about, but can't?
Trixie: 😀 SUICIDE
I love her switching between calling katya brian and katya 😭😍
Even though I am not the biggest Trixie fan, I do love learning more about the man behind the character.
Also, I definitely agree with him when comes to putting a stop to the idea that being a drag queen is a result of a bad upbringing, trauma, or neglect.
Me: just one more video before I go to bed..
(Watch this interview)
Me : that is one of the best interview about Trixie I had ever watched so far...
trixie is constantly improving and evolving mentally, emotionally, and physically ♡
Ok, that’s how you carry an interview. Loved the way he did it.
Hey Qween, take notes
This interview is transcendent. Very pleased with the repertoire between the two people. Great questions, great dialogue.
Jeremy Shaw she is being her authentic self - it’s amazing
Great lighting.
Stay close to the candles, the light technician can be treacherous Barbara....
I 100% read that in Katyas voice
YASSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
@@MrsMonsterlein me too lol!!!!!!
👽👹😺💀😺👹👽
@Cale Lambert 🧟♂️
After I read “Barbara” everything made sense and I choked I heard it in katya’s voice lol
24:40 -- "If I ever become single again, I can't have anyone over for hookups because I have a pink bedroom full of Barbie Dolls".
-- The Pink Barbie Doll
ive heard trixie willl neeeever have sex in drag. so its just the big egg in a bedroom full of barbie dolls. hahahahhah
@@rachelnutt596 From my perspective it's more like, how would someone be surprised by a pink room full of Barbies, knowing who she is. She'd have to sink quite some time into finding someone who is unaware of who she is in order for them to be surprised by the state of her house, which I think is mostly pink on the interior judging by her IG Stories. Maybe her current boyfriend didn't know what he was getting into, literally or figuratively, until he walked into her bedroom like
"how intense could a giant pink Barbie doll drag queen possibly be about the colour pink or Barbie dolls" --> surprisepikachu.jpg
Ha I was literally reading this as he said it. That was a trip
i can't wait to watch this documentary!!! what a great interview.
Do you know if it's going to be on Netflix?
yeah i need to know where i can watch this
Does anyone know where to see this?
This was a very late comment but the Moving Parts documentary is now on Netflix!
“I feel like I did something with my life” Wow. I want to relate to that so badly ❤️
Someday... is not a day of the week
“I am my people” is transcendent.
Look at my mom with her clear mascara and slick of vaseline on the lips natural look ❤😍
this was such an honest and great interview i loved it!! thank you so much
haran ! Ikr after seeing so many other uh not so well done interviews
28:35 “if somebody wants you, make sure they can ONLY call you.”
we Stan a transcendent Queen
Polly blend is an awesome drag name.

The mainstreaming of drag is a double edged sword. Drag through the lens of the straight world helps to create acceptance and the queens are recognised as the stars they are but it also means Drag becomes Disneyfied, sanitised and cleaned up for straight sensibilities. So much so that a lot of Drag is basically cross dressing whilst performing at a Kid's Birthday Party. It's the gentrification of culture.
Trixie is really good at walking that fine line, her shows are still dark and edgy but she can also garner mainstream appeal. However, it seems like people are turning on her now with the whole racial jokes from the Haters Tour fiasco. It's a shame.
The whole thing is a bit of a microcosm of Gay life in general, as we gain more acceptance and gay people lead hetero-normative lives, we kind of have to sacrifice a large part of our culture.
God, he is SUCH a brilliant businessman! 🔥
The part about Paris is Burning and how people died by then really struck home
I never thought that I would seek business tips from a drag queen. There were actually some good tips in the video
yeah! when she said the thing about make sure you're the first and only person they can call, I really needed to hear that because that's so true!
*Me hearing Brian (Trixie) call Katya Brian makes me sort of uncomfortable in a good way.*
cosmo c. You know it’s serious and personal 😢
It's really funny that they have the same name (and both have an older brother named Dan)
Trixie is amazing at giving good concise answers and this guy is a great interviewer asking good questions
I love trixie! Great interview..
everyone is focusing on the lighting and i'm just there thinking that this whole interview was truly PRECIOUS.
I’ve always liked Trixie. Since that bearded runway look on S7, idk something about it was so beautiful for me. I’ve watched like every Unnhhh episode and I’ve always liked her as a drag queen.
But this interview made me realize how much of a genuinely wise person Trixie actually is. It really showed me how like everyone else, Brian is a person making a living doing something he’s proud of. Trixie shares some generally great life and business tips.
Her perspective on some things like make-up, mental health and her past felt really liberating to hear and along with her genuine care for Katya it really shows how much of a strong individual is actually behind all of the drag.
On top of that, this interview and interviewer was amazing.
Tracy Martel, you are a star. I love her honesty and Brian/Katya being open about issues many of us face is commendable. ❤️
This is one of the best interviews I’ve ever watched. Congrats to you guys and especially Brian/Trixie! You are truly an amazing entertainer/singer/drag queen/anything you want to be! We can really feel it all comes from the heart, can’t wait to see the movie 💕
7:30 never once in my life I have thought that I'd be so proud of a complete stranger's success but here I am, crying, because Trixie has worked so hard and accomplished so much, and she knows it and is proud of herself, and others know it and appreciate it too, and I'm just so happy for her and this makes absolutetely no sense but yeah.
Honestly if they did a 10 part segment on UNHHHH, each episode on mental illness so it can be like anxiety, body dysphoria, depression, suicide ect that would be great. Also someone with a list of mental illnesses I love when people joke about it, not make fun of it but make it lighter because it's so heavy that it's a nice break when people aren't so stoic
Pink hair, pink suit
jeffree is quaking
"I am my own people, and my primary employee is pretty disappointing."
I think trixie is so smart and has so much to say about the world she’s in, and it’s a huge part of what makes me love her
"uncensored" is right! God that lightning is homophobic
Way to repeat a comment already made 17 times
The fact that Trixie called Katya ‘Brian’ and ‘he’ shows how personal it it. It wasn’t about drag and business, it was personal
Uhhhuhhh is my fave! It brightens up my darkest days! Love you Trixie! Cant wait to watch the Doc!!
OMG she is actually so introspective and intelligent. Love Trixie even more now.
“Tracy Martel” 😂 is so quick-witted, genuine and funny. I love watching her interviews and show so much. Well-deserved success!
“Just drink your vodka soda and calm down.”😂😂😂😂
The guy asking questions is so respectful and amazingly good... calm, soft spoken and lets trixie take the centre piece... timid and yet makes the interview so insightful... good job
LOL @ "We don't want your kids. They don't go out, we don't know them."
Honestly brought to tears hearing trixie talk about katya
One of the most legendary drag queens since Rupaul. Period.
We we're Squirtle.....& then we we're Warturtle.....& now we're Squirtle again *trixie laugh* Aaaaaahhhhhhhhhhahahahahhhh!!!!! This is why I love you mama, that is the exact perfect description of Uuhhnn!!! I could cry just watching this I know I'll ball 😭😭😭 when I see the actual documentary
The interviewer is so cute enjoying Trixie's talking and making jokes.
pink one is so terrify
Ryzen D. YESSSS YESSSS YESSSSS YESSSS
Honestly an iconic snap shot of Trixie being over all of it but also embracing her stardom. Can we chat about all the shady season 7 clips!?
Category is: lighting by a heterosexual person
screaming
ohhhhh deaddddddd bahaha
Lmaooooo
Calm down pose 😂😂😂
I'm so proud of Trixie, she's come so far...
It's a feeling rivaled only by my hate for this lighting
Awesome interview. The interviewer asked such great questions with impeccable timing and pacing.
Trixie’s nose is the straightest thing about her in this interview and i’m so proud.
Willam would be pressed by this lighting.
This lighting is homophobic
Jaz Sno My first thought.
You can definitely tell that a straight did the lighting
yuh but don’t care it’ was a good interview
i literally came to the comments because i knew someone had already pointed this, first thing i thought!
My words exactly!
This interviewer is hitting every question sooo well 👌👌 absolutely highlighting everything awesome about Trixie and her career. Props to you bro
This interviewer is adorable and so good at asking the right questions
Trixie speaks so well, she really does.
She actually makes made me cry in this interview. I really love her and Katya and can relate to Katya’s problems in a big way and I just love them both and Trixie is such a good friend and loving to Katya
This 30 minute interview made me so emotional. I can't imagine how the documentary will make me feel
This interview was amazing I like how comfortable he was and how raw it is, honestly so much more honest
I can't believe I actually watched this whole thing.
Actually, I can, it's Trixie. She could never bore anyone.
IM LATE BUT THE FACT THAT MIZZ TRIXIE JUST COMPLIMENTED WOMEN SO MUCH!!! WE STAN THIS ANGEL
Trixie is amazing. She really is sooo business savvy. She deserves all the success she is getting! Great interview!
“I was up at 7 nairing my hole” 😭😂I love Trixie
So nice of Trixie to do an interview with a small media company that can afford only one good light
Im so proud of this pink lady💖💖💖
I thought trixie's contour darker this time but, THE LIGHTING SJSKSJSKKSJSKS SHE'S DISAPPEARED AND NEVER CAME BACK
“Tracy Martel” 😂 is so quick-witted, funny and genuine. I love everything she does!
How did I not know about this?????? I absolutely can not wait for this!!! I will pay whatever to watch this!!!
This is the best interview with Trixie I’ve ever seen. Nice work!
This is a great interview 🥰 kudos to the questions and the interviewer's skills
I so loved Trixy and Katya together. It’s chemistry, how they bounced off one another, timing...and they r both beautiful.
Trixie gives truly superior content. Her comedy, music, and interview answers are always smart and honest. She's a person of dimension and substance.
this was soooo good! brilliant interviewer and trixie is quick, she also has a good heart. you can see it.
