Inside TikTok Star Dylan Mulvaney’s Rainbow Room Debut
variety.comAntonio Ferme editor A year ago Monday, Dylan Mulvaney came out as a trans woman and began chronicling her journey on TikTok with her “Days of Girlhood” series.
To celebrate her one-year anniversary, Mulvaney hosted a cabaret show, “Dylan Mulvaney’s Day 365 Live!,” at the iconic Rainbow Room in New York.
Before the show, she spoke with Variety on the red carpet about what she’s learned from her very public and unexpected journey. “It was such an accident, but a very happy one,” Mulvaney told Variety on Monday night. “Going in, I had no idea just how vulnerable I would get and how much I had to learn about womanhood.” The 80-minute variety show began with a pre-recorded clip of Rachel Brosnahan (“The Marvelous Mrs.
Maisel”) comforting Mulvaney in her dressing room. From there, Mulvaney eagerly entered from the balcony at the back of the Rainbow Room and sang a series of Kate Bush covers.
