Young Thug gave a rare interview to Billboard magazine where he talked about the origins of his gender fluid fashion sense.
Young Thug isn’t a man of many words, so getting two quotes out of him is considered a feat. Billboard managed to get as much out of him for their style issue where they talked with musicians and the people that make them look good.
Thugger has been making news since he came on the scene wearing women’s blouses and grandma pearls while rapping street sh*t. The fashion world has taken notice to his style as he was featured in the 2016 Calvin Klein womenswear ad campaign. He also formed a partnership with fashion house VFILES that resulted in the lavender gown he rocked on the cover of his No, My Name Is Jeffery mixtape.

He also made the news earlier this week for interrupting VFILES runway show at Fashion Week to fix a model’s collar, with blunt in mouth.
While many have begun to think that Thug isn’t actually promoting gender fluidity, but rather using dresses as a gimmick, he reveals that he isn’t new to this, he’s true to this. So much that admitted to wearing his sister’s shoes as a child.
“When I was 12, my feet were so small I wore my sisters’ glitter shoes,” he says. “My dad would whoop me: ‘You’re not going to school now, you’ll embarrass us!’ But I never gave a f— what people think.”
But that wasn’t the most eye catching revelation. In the same interview, the suspected homosexual, but obviously heterosexual father of six and soon to be husband, said that he will not be wearing a tuxedo to his wedding.
Billboard writes:
[Thug] has worn a frock with trousers for Calvin Klein’s 2016 global campaign, a skinny tracksuit for Puma’s Classics collection, and, soon, he’ll don another statement gown, for his wedding to swimwear designer Jerrika Karlae (“There will be two brides,” he says).
The man who made the song “Two B*tches” says that there will be “two brides” at his wedding. Go figure. Sounds like Karlae has some work to do if she doesn’t want to be shown up by her husband.
