Elizabeth Chan, ‘Queen of Christmas,’ on Channeling Grief Into Her 14th Straight Holiday Music Release, ‘Shatterproof’
Chris Willman Senior Music Writer and Chief Music Critic Singer-songwriter Elizabeth Chan set yet another benchmark in the annals of holiday music by issuing her 14th straight annual Christmas release, “Shatterproof,” this month. No one is likely to come close to shattering that record for the highest number of consecutive seasonal albums or EPs, but Chan — who is known for having a claim on the “queen of Christmas” title — dealt with plenty of events in the past year that put some cracks in her mostly cheerful holiday façade. Most impactfully, she was undergoing grief over the death of a close friend, filmmaker Morgan Spurlock (“Super Size Me”), this past spring, as well as her grandmother last December.

Remembering Fola Francis, the matriarch of my chosen family, one year after her passing
A post shared by Yves (@the_yvesdropper)Fola Francis was more than my best friend, she was the matriarch of the chosen family we created together, safe from the queerphobia and transphobia that still maintains a firm hold on Nigeria.Our family was one of those where we spent most of our waking moments together. As queer people in Lagos, a city here we didn’t always belong, we navigated life and everything it threw at us the best way we could. We became siblings who looked out for each other, and created traditions that kept us going.In 2022, Fola became the first openly trans woman to walk the Lagos Fashion Week runway.
