Hi everyone, welcome back to PLT Behind Closedores. I'm your host, NATO Leary and in this week's

episode we speak to Alexis Stone about that transformation stunt, his journey and what's

coming next in his career. It came from a very narcissistic point of view to begin with,

like it's been translated as a social experiment but that really is not where I was coming from.

I mean I was angry, I wanted to put my finger up to everyone and I wanted to give them the ultimate

transformation. Every person that said your transformation is a photoshop, you can't do the maker,

blah, blah, I thought I'll give you a transformation. Hi Alexis. Hey. Welcome to Behind Closedores.

We're very excited to have you here today. Thank you very much. I've been waiting for this moment.

It's been an interesting few months so I'm excited to sit down and talk about it all.

It's been very exciting for you and that's something we've worked the stunt. We're going to talk about

that a little bit later on. But first of all, I want to go into who is Alexis Stone? Like from the

beginning where did you first start off? So I know that you create these masterpieces on Instagram

and I know they're incredible. But how did you begin doing that? Where did you begin?

So drag was something I always put on the back burner from, I think I started one on 17 and this

is throughout designing. So as Eddie Joseph Rents I designed, I got to work with Lady Gaga,

Italian Vogue, David Lescher-Pell and throughout all of that I had Alexis like sneaking into the clubs,

being a young, pubic and twink at the time. And when I reached a certain point in fashion,

I thought okay social media is a thing. Drag's always been there so let me try and

turn Alexis into a star and throughout just doing my own drag aesthetic, I remember turning to

my flatmate one night and I said I'm pretty sure I can make myself look at other people. And

alas I did one transformation post-art online. It was Nikki Dutorials actually the first one

and it just blew up overnight and then I guess the addict in me was just like, right, fuck it.
