"IF IT'S NOT TOO MUCH, NO ONE IS GONNA REMEMBER" -words of wisdome, so true in every gender.
when he flipped the sequins on that skull top i knew we were dealing with a real queen already
😂😂😂
Yeeeeeeesssss!
that moment alone changed the entire minidocu
Rodrigo Miguel not only the documentary but my life
Lollipop Lou YES! I loved that!
"Is about loking yourself in the mirror and loving yourself" "if we walk we walk, if we fall we fall" this video is gold
claudia Agreda be realistic when you look at the miroir, look for what behind you not just yourself, This is the real life
+claudiaagreda :)
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂❗❗❗❗❗YESSSSS!!! I'M JUST NOW SEEING YOUR COMMENT BUT THAT PART IS HELLA GREAT❗❗❗💜
“Maybe I want to be a queen, to challenge the idea what people say you can and can’t be, who you can and can’t love, how you can practice your faith, to put that out there in the world while making way for others to do the same.”
I’ve never looked at drag this way. This was so beautiful.
OMGGGG me and German used to go to dance classes together!!! Yessss
Avital Pikovski wowww!
Love this comment ❤️
Avital Pikovski is it weird I'm jealous of someone I don't know....
haha why tho??
The research team in refinery is amazing!
+alessandrasantamaria Thank you! :)
Alessandra Santamaría
YEP
So great-full to be a part of this documentary , thank you!
Nona, you are amazing! So gracious of you to mentor Diamond. I'm already a fan.
HouseofNona this was beautiful you are all beautiful why cant the world embrace what it really wants pure freedom to Be!.
Thankyou for putting yourself out there
@houseofnona you are beautiful!
We're happy you were!
This was an incredible video, but as an Orthodox Jew, I want to address the concern of gender. Judaism is an ancient religion, meaning that the multiplicity of more than two genders is very new to a culture thousands of years old. Our scriptures and laws were written long ago, so wheit comes to embracing new revolutions of sexuality and gender, it is difficult. This does not mean that Jews, observant or not, are not willing to educate ourselves and use our religious knowledge to address modern concerns, but it does take time. I want to let everyone know that we are accepting people, as Jews have been persecuted in the past, and more and more Jews are becoming open to the idea of different sexualities and genders. New ideals will take time to spread, but we do not tolerate hatred in our religion.
The idea of multiple genders is actually not new, especially in pagan cultures/religions. I'm glad Judiasm is the first Abrahamic religion to accept this idea and let LGBT individuals be accepted as who they are and understand that culture, religion, sexuality, and gender are not mutually exclusive.
I thought that Judaism had 6 genders?
I went to a synagogue that had a teacher who is gay and orthodox(he would call it open orthodox) he also did allot of drag and would show us said drag on Purim. He was super cool and one of the chillest teachers out there for Wednesday night school.
april hymoose and it sounds like you had allot of time to come up with that original and witty comment
april hymoose so thanks for the non-appreciated input in the hope of a troll liking It. but in reality it was not funny due to anti-Semitic comments always being everywhere. I suggest you get new material then come back.
YESSSSS, half my teachers at my jewish school in america were either drag queens, friends of drag queens, and/or LGBTQ+, so majority would do drag on purim and tbh those were the days (also cant forget when my rabbi literally gave a quick makeup lesson in class cuz someone was curious)
My teacher does drag. Hes the coolest person ever!
That's wonderful thank you for sharing g
A Jewish Guy named German, a bit ironic.
It's pronounced with a hard G sound (not a J).
Ha Ns we still exist 😂 My family didn’t immigrate to Israel (yet!)
Tal125R not all Muslims are bad! My flatmate is Muslim and he’s not only cool, open minded and beautiful, he’s also very intelligent and hardworking!
Einstein's a phony...
From a German: we still have jews. Actually rising in the last couple of years.
& my city is one who has very many Jews, still many Muslims. Surprisingly, they get along.
i'd also love to see a video about istanbul drag queens, bc they're the ones doing drag in a muslim majority. kudos to israeli queens though 💜
The ending was so cute I love it!
yassssssssss i didn't even know there were drag queens shows in Israel and i live in Israel now i wanna go see a show ...
+namimiller YAS! Let us know how it goes!
Yeah TLV has a tone...
Refinery29 I sure will!
omgggg i live in Israel we should go together
Mia Ashmawi yessssss let's do it !! It could be so much fun
'almost in between' 😂 oh god I love that guy
I want that adidas jacket
When they introduced the first drag queen, my breath was taken away immediately. Beautiful!!!
+aaronmartinex Aw! :)
I live in San Francisco, California and these queens taught me more about freedom and loving yourself than I’ve learned in the 3 years of living in SF. I live👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
I am from Lebanon ( Israel's tiny neighbor and also unfortunately its enemy. there is even a travel ban) yet this spoke to me on sooooo many levels, way deeper than I can even explain. Conflicts in the middle east and their intensity go so deep into our culture and it's beyond sadening. in lebanon, just being gay and out can get you to go to jail from 6 months to a year. lgbtq members have it so hard and yet they keep their chins up and let their love shine through. beirut pride was cancelled in lebanon within 2 days of its running and the creator was locked up. so you making this video, on something so close to home is so essential and helpful. drag queens are the very very small minority in lebanon but whenever yiu do see them in small gay clubs, there is almost always a statement, and always love that demands a brighter future. ❤
So inspiring. Diamond killed it her first time!!! Peace in the middle east!
Jews and Muslims (& ohers) can all live in peace if we step away from the imperial nature of politics and power : children of Abraham we must stand together in united faith and devotion in Gxd! And Drag can heal the world !!!
we must never forget our common ancestry. peace ❤
As someone who lives in Israel, and a pan sexual - I am proud to be part of the change in Israel, part the future we vision!
ima go there one day and we will spread the pan agendaAAA
Don't get to use to it... it's a temporary problem that will be fixed very soon.
I love Israel! Visited last year and loved TelAviv city and all the other amazing cities
The ending was super cute 😍😄
🌴🌊💜"If we walk, we waaalk. If we fall, we faaall" 😂 HELLA COMICAL !! LOVE THEM ALL !!🌴🌊🦄
_"I think Drag will save the world."_ - I AGREE!
I just got back from Israel ... I was very pleased to be able to show my Pride. Seeing this video makes me want to go right back.... Peace Yerushalaim! love you!
I was in Tel Aviv for their Pride Parade back in 2016. Love it there, need to go back soon!
Diamond's makeup is incredible!
Fabulous !!! Just wish everyone could be who ever they want to be without fear , no matter what gender, or sexuality .Love from England x
I was shook every single second of this episode.
When he said that "to put on lashes and walk out the streets is political, to be us is political" damn
I just fell in love with the person in the Adidas jacket. "If you fall, you fall". ❤
"If it's not too much, no one will remember." Y E S
Oh my god
My heart when she said "he's like my son"
I efffinngg loooooooove Israel
grn gal
Lmao definitely not an oasis
Yas loved the video very interesting love it 😍
+lujainmarbeauty Thanks for checking it out!
"To challenge the idea of what people say you can or can't be, who you can or can't love, how you can practice your faith." Don't hate (the differences). Appreciate them. LOVE it!
Asis is so completely present. And gorgeous!
I love seeing videos like this about israel. Not about conflict and wars but about drag and tel aviv?? Yes queen. U got urself a new israeli subscriber lmao
This is amazinggggggg !!!!
That bit at the end was adorable. I want a full show with those two.
I love Refinery29😭, thank you for this amazing video, keep up the good work. and OMG Diamond is so beautiful as a drag queen 😍, it didn't look like his first time
Love this and the ending? Too cute! Subscribed indeed!
+jeanette Thanks for joining us here! :)
That floral one piece and that retro color block jumpsuit in the beginning were everything that I never knew I needed.
That outro! I would love to see more of these two together.
I just found this channel and I'm hooked!
+shivangeechauhan Yay! Thanks for hanging out!
Same here
Asis D'orange is an anomaly! Huge love for them
He's certainly very brave, but I don't think he's particularly bright. I'm glad that he is free to say and do as he pleases, but I'd think twice before taking him as some kind of role model.
Yess! 💃🏼😂that Voguing training was everything!!
Nona's accent! Love y'all
Drag will save the World. I believe it.
Shilo Reno *hugs* YASS
Brave folks! Everyone should be free to express and do whatever they want with their life and time.It shouldn’t be difficult for anyone else to understand that.
Truly inspirational!
9:55 I just find this part adorable and funny!😊😂
Thank you for creating this
+cupotj Thank you for watching!
WIG SNATCHED QUEEN!
The vogue moves remind me of the tv show 'Pose' 📺
Omggggg I'm so proud of German!!! (we went together to beauty and makeup school ) he is a Queen 👑
Really loving what you guys are creating! Everything about this is fantastic. The research & the writing is perfection. The DP is a badass & the editor is a genius!
Thank you Diamond! Thank you Drags! for being brave and bold. The world needs you
I can't wait to be there for Eurovision next year!
This is AMAZING! These people are so brave and risk everything for freedom.
Yesss as someone from Israel I got really excited seeing the video in my subscription box
That's amazing! :)

I rarely see anything that makes me SUBSCRIBE anymore..... this was AMAZING! Love the story, the camera work, editing, host... FABULOUS WORK!!!! 👏🏼👏🏼🤗🤗
OMG I LOOOVEEE THIS VIDEO!! Thank you for showcasing this, and Israel!! What a beautiful thing. DRAG WILL SAVE THE WORLD!!!!
+rachelwolman Agreed!
Rachel Wolman smh
I've watched this video many times and I still can't get enough of it !!!
WOWOWOW this was such a good little doc, so perfectly done and it inspired me so much!!!
If anything gives me hope, it's people like them! 🤩
Black turtleneck,blue jeans,cardigan,vans(black and white,classic ones),less torturing high ponytail, black sunglasses.
oh my gosh I loved them at the end telling us to click, "are you sire it there I dont see it." made me chuckle :)
From Harlem to Tel Aviv. Pepper La Beija and Willi Ninja would be very proud to see that the core principles of the ball culture are surviving in a new culture and a new time, I hope. Slay queens.
This is the first time I actually understood what drag means. I think I like it, very much.
Loved it!
What a great vid, interesting people in such dangerous part of the world. This souls really have guts!
Loved this video! The freedom to be whoever your want and love whoever you want. This is what the world needs.
Awwwwwww that little queen is so cute!! Hes a pint sized queenie with giant sized attitude!!! They all seem really lovely!
so proud of them
i love that they speak about the politics of drag. drag is by it's very nature subversive, working to change the status quo. #dragisresistance
I just love love love this video. Great job, Refinary29!
