How can a man be a fairy godmother

 

[Suger Mag]

well, if any man can pull off Fairy GM.... it would be Billy Porter

Not like CInderella hasn't been done umpteen times.... fairy tale....animated classic....on stage... on screen... live action... and now another live action, why not mix it up?

Oops forgot "on Ice " too... I am sure Cinderella has been done by the Disney on Ice LOL

How can a man be a fairy godmother

How can a woman play Peter Pan?

So, it sounds like this isn't the Rogers and Hammerstein version.

2021 why not a fairy godfather?

It's called "acting". I'm excited, I think Billy Porter will be fabulous.

Drag is the PC fad right now.
Although I don’t know if he’ll be in traditional drag.
The description is he’ll be playing a “genderless” fairy godmother, whatever that means. I’m sure it will involve lots of glitter.

Drag isn't a "PC fad".

And Billy Porter will be an amazing fairy godparent! I imagine him somewhere between Robin Williams' genie and Cher

Just look at any of Billy's Red Carpet looks and that will probably give you a good idea of what a "genderless" FGM could be like. It's not really drag, since he's not trying to present as a woman.

AKA agender, genderfree, non-gendered, or ungendered.

Examples: all of the angels in Good Omens, Milo in Danger & Eggs, The Knight in Hollow Knight.

Billy Porter would be fabulous as a Fairy Godmother and I would absolutely tune in!

Different strokes for different folks, I guess.
