New Short Film coming August 3rd!
We did a thing- new short comedy film that combines all my worlds- acting, dance, and pole. With barely a couple of weeks to prepare, we shot this whole project in just 6 hours, which is no small feat!

Where to watch:

Location @bodyandpole This space is absolutely gorgeous! Highly recommend for location shoots, private events, or to take a class. The staff is kind and supportive, and the teachers are amazing (I promise I’m not just saying that because I teach there 😉)

As we continue celebrating the people and moments that made the 2026 Gracie Awards season so meaningful, we’re shining a light on the work behind the Gala.

This year’s Gala was brought to life by female-owned production companies Do Great Projects and Mythical Creatures, with talent support from Good People Talent, and by the women who helped lead the creative direction, production and script writing behind the scenes.

From the words spoken on stage to the run of show, talent coordination, timing and countless details in between, this talented group brought precision, creativity and heart to every part of the evening.

With gratitude to those whose care and expertise helped create a celebration worthy of the women and stories honored at the 51st Annual Gracie Awards Gala.

Grateful to have been trusted alongside my talent wranglers (also powerhouse women in media.)

Nights like this give me hope for the future of journalism and media. ✨

#GraciesReplay | Behind the Scenes at the 50th Gracie Awards Gala

For the first time in Gracies history, the Gala was produced by an all-female-led production team. 🎬

Powerhouse women from @dogreatprojects and @wearemythicalcreatures, led by Executive Producer Kristin Whalley, brought vision, expertise, and intention to every element of the show.

We’re also grateful to Bex Schwartz, the Gala’s brilliant writer and creative director, whose voice helped shape this milestone celebration.

📸Check out some of the behind-the-scenes moments and take a peek at what it looked like behind the curtain of #TheGracies50

Reflecting on the 50th season of the Gracie Awards, we’re honored to share the commemorative video montage that premiered at the Gala in Beverly Hills.

This powerful piece celebrates five decades of extraordinary women in media...their stories, their impact, and the legacy that continues to shape our industry.

A heartfelt thank you to the Library of American Broadcasting Foundation (LABF) for generously providing historical footage, and to the all-female production team — led by Kristin Whalley and Do Great Projects in partnership with We Are Mythical Creatures, as well as writer and creative director Bex Schwartz for shaping this celebration with brilliance and heart.

Xaden Riorson: “You turned oranges into a weapon, Violence?”
Violet Sorrengail (Maddie’s Version): What, like it’s hard?

Welcome back to the fanfiction of audiobooks 🫶🏻💜⚡️ 4wmv Chapter 24 is out now on YouTube and Spotify!
.
I resisted for a long time, but lost the battle with my self control in the end and just let Violence take over. Here’s the thing about that: she’s SO horny, y’all. Letting this chapter loose into the wild on Beyoncé’s internet is giving me butterflies but I’m just saying fuck it and turning up the spice 🌶️ 4wmv is the first time I’ve published content like this, so be gentle, okay? 🥺
.
Seriously I think I had the most fun with this one. A scene partner like @nickmeyeracting makes it easy 🤤 @kendall_therock_kemp & @ashleihazell are the wind in my free flowing sails and the liquor in my cocktails 🔮 thank you @aliana.pdf @ @ameliaworkman_ for believing in me at first sight 🥹 and shouts out to my gods-tier cast new and old (welcome, @kylekazz & @readswithelise @elise_carlin_ !!)
.
Anyway. Seriously. Put on your noise cancelling and have a slutty smutty time for me. Thank you @rebeccayarros for your (master)mind, I hope I bring Vi to life in a way that makes you kick your feet and I hope you’re having the best summer off ever and also that I’m well known enough for you and @moirawalleybeckett to notice me by the time you get back 🥺🫶🏻
.
Don’t die today!!!! 🖤⚡️🗡️
