This episode is a replay of a previous episode of Dance Dad with John Corella. Enjoy! Happy Pride!  “I loved how free I was,” reflects Ally Marc Jacobs, a transgender teen and emerging star in the worlds of voguing and drag. Inspired by the House of Juicy Couture’s performances and the House of Balmain  on the HBO series “Legendary”, Ally began vogue dancing and quickly became a sensation across social media. She is now a member of both the House of Juicy Couture and House of Marc Jacobs. Today on the Dance Dad podcast, Ally shares insights into the ball culture, her personal journey of coming out, and how both her mainstream and kiki house communities have become like a second family to her. Ally’s biological family, including her mother Amy, who also joins the podcast, has supported her from the start. Amy discusses the pressures facing Ally as a prominent figure in the trans community, and the scrutiny she faces as a parent.  Ally addresses her experiences with bullies in various settings, from playgrounds to churches and even political arenas, and how she has found a supportive community. Host John Corella highlights the hypocrisy of parents who criticize Amy for 'forcing a lifestyle' on Ally, while they themselves push their children into unwanted activities. Ally, confident in her identity from a young age, and perhaps even in past lives, is forging ahead fearlessly. Tune in to hear her discuss her love for Beyoncé, Monster High dolls, and her very own dance dad. Episode Breakdown LinksConnect with Ally Marc Jacobs:www.instagram.com/allymarcjacobs Connect with John Corella:Dance Dad with John Corella on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/dancedadwithjohncorella/John on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/john_corella/Patreon: https://patreon.com/TheonlyDanceDadwithJohnCorellaWebsite: johncorella.netPodcast production and show notes provided by HiveCast.fm
