Jem update

More than 2,000 views and counting on my audition video!

This project has taken almost all of my free time over the past couple of weeks, and you may be wondering why I’m so dedicated.

It all started because I love Jem. That much is clear.

Also, Hollywood movie sets are glamorous. I have imagined hanging out by the craft table, waiting for my 10 seconds on camera, and then thanking all the little people at the Salem premiere.

However, as with all things worth doing, my reasons for this project have evolved.

I was a shy, effeminate kid who had trouble connecting with the world, but Jem taught me it’s OK to be myself. I’ve said this a few times, but it bears repeating: “It doesn’t matter what hologram you project on the outside; what matters is who you are on the inside.”

That’s why I’ve changed my focus. It would be great to get a part in the movie, but it would be even greater if every boy who loved Jem (and every girl who loved GI Joe) felt accepted for who they are. Dancing for that video was the most outrageous fun I’ve had in a long time. We all deserve to live an outrageously fun and authentic life, no matter which gender we are assigned at birth.

So, stay outrageous, Holograms! Believe in yourself, follow your dreams, and spread JemLove to every person you meet today. That’s what I’ll be doing.

More than 2,000 people have seen me dance to Jem. Crazy because I don’t even know 2,000 people!
