billy porter,
in my opinion,
is someone who suffers from “bigego-isitis“.
remember when he was the hot ‘n’ happenings while pose was going on?
all the black folks who hate anna wintour are cheering him on today.
as you know,
or didn’t,
he called her ( x the b word ) after trying to prove his point.
in doing so,
he ( x lost his invite to the met gala ) going forward.
once a staple at the event will be no more.

he shouldn’t be upset tho…

Why would you want to go to an event with someone you don’t like?

he should be thrilled to have nothing to do with her…

i think this is gonna come back and bite him in the ass tho.

Anna has friends in high places including designers.
Anna has people in high places who like going to the Met Gala.
Anna has people who want to be in high places and aspire to go to the Met Gala.

so that might be an issue going forward in his career.
the met gala is bigger than anna but she runs that realm.
she has connections and many people want her approval.

now let’s get to this blind support.
all the black folks are cheering him because they share a common enemy.
once the dust settles,
he will see they never really supported him at all.
they would never call their boss/vp/ceo out of their name:

…But they have no problem with someone else doing so.

with all the homophobia and hatred within this community,
and billy kind of rubbing many people the wrong way already,
do we really think he is going to work out in his favor?
he could do the bet awards but will they accept him there?
he doesn’t have the type of power to go against an anna wintour.
leave that to the perrys and winfreys of the forests.
even they know where their bread is buttered.
who knows tho?
he might be fine or this is where he makes his exit.
i’d hate to think someone who finally made it ended on this note.

lowkey: he could have said what he had to say because it made sense.
it was the calling someone out their name that ruined him.
he should have left that in the drafts.
