About six foot one. His drag name is Licorice Black. He was at Cruz last night. Maybe I&rsquo;ll nip down.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Can you remember your first time on Canal Street?<\/strong><br \/>\nIt was probably after Queer As Folk. I was living in London and wasn&rsquo;t really aware of what was going on. I&rsquo;m usually on Canal Street on the arm of Antony Cotton, which is a dangerous place to be. He&rsquo;s so recognized, so beloved.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Do you have a close knit set of <a title=\"\" class=\"aalmanual\" target=\"_blank\"   href=\"https:\/\/chaturbate.com\/in\/?tour=R2Xc&#38;campaign=hl4zp&#38;track=gfcsb\">gay<\/a> friends?<\/strong><br \/>\nA lot of them are <a title=\"\" class=\"aalmanual\" target=\"_blank\"   href=\"https:\/\/chaturbate.com\/in\/?tour=R2Xc&#38;campaign=hl4zp&#38;track=gfcsb\">gay<\/a>, but not all. I do notice, when I have 10 people round for dinner or something, I look and think &lsquo;They&rsquo;re all <a title=\"\" class=\"aalmanual\" target=\"_blank\"   href=\"https:\/\/chaturbate.com\/in\/?tour=R2Xc&#38;campaign=hl4zp&#38;track=gfcsb\">gay<\/a>!&rsquo; Or &lsquo;There&rsquo;s a straight person, how are they going to get on?&rsquo; Or I don&rsquo;t have enough <a title=\"\" class=\"aalmanual\" target=\"_blank\"   href=\"https:\/\/www.flirt4free.com\/live\/girls\/?mp_code=akftr\">women<\/a>. It can be difficult to balance it out. But I don&rsquo;t have any friends who aren&rsquo;t totally at ease with <a title=\"\" class=\"aalmanual\" target=\"_blank\"   href=\"https:\/\/chaturbate.com\/in\/?tour=R2Xc&#38;campaign=hl4zp&#38;track=gfcsb\">gay<\/a> people. My favorite group is straight <a title=\"\" class=\"aalmanual\" target=\"_blank\"   href=\"https:\/\/chaturbate.com\/in\/?tour=R2Xc&#38;campaign=hl4zp&#38;track=gfcsb\">men<\/a> who are <a title=\"\" class=\"aalmanual\" target=\"_blank\"   href=\"https:\/\/chaturbate.com\/in\/?tour=R2Xc&#38;campaign=hl4zp&#38;track=gfcsb\">gay<\/a>-friendly. I find that very attractive.<\/p>\n<p><strong>How does it feel to be part of Taylor Swift&rsquo;s &lsquo;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.ew.com\/article\/2015\/08\/12\/patrick-stewart-ian-mckellen-taylor-swift-squad\">squad<\/a>&lsquo;?<\/strong><br \/>\nI&rsquo;m not. When I was living in Peter Jackson&rsquo;s apartment in New York, Taylor Swift bought it while I was there and I was thrown out before I wanted to leave! That hardly puts me in Taylor Swift&rsquo;s team, does it? You look shocked.<\/p>\n<p><strong>We are shocked!<\/strong><br \/>\n[Laughs] She bought it, she had every right to &ndash; I was just lodging there for free! She did ask me to appear with Patrick Stewart at her show in LA, but I had something else to do that night.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Is there any news on the third series of Vicious?<\/strong><br \/>\nI keep being told to not take another job because it&rsquo;s going to happen, but I don&rsquo;t know for certain.<\/p>\n<p><strong>How do you feel about the public reaction to it?<\/strong><br \/>\nIt&rsquo;s a bit like Marmite. That&rsquo;s what Derek Jacobi said. People either love it or hate it. A lot of people today &ndash; particularly middle-aged, clearly heterosexual <a title=\"\" class=\"aalmanual\" target=\"_blank\"   href=\"https:\/\/www.flirt4free.com\/live\/girls\/?mp_code=akftr\">women<\/a> &ndash; have shouted [puts on Mancunian accent]: &lsquo;LOVED you in Vicious!&rsquo; As long as they&rsquo;re happy! We&rsquo;re not trying to change the world with Vicious.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Are you looking forward to the new Stonewall film?<\/strong><br \/>\nI&rsquo;ve heard a little bit about it. I haven&rsquo;t seen it. I would like to know more about what actually happened. I&rsquo;ve heard the stories and I visited the Stonewall Inn for the first time very recently. One of the barmen was there the night of the riots. But I know there&rsquo;s some disagreement with the representation of the principal players. Have you seen it?<\/p>\n<p><strong>No. We&rsquo;ve seen the trailer. So far, the accusations of whitewashing have been directed at the trailer rather than the film. No one has seen the film yet.<\/strong><br \/>\nIt&rsquo;s a bit early to criticize then. I know enough about trailers to know they&rsquo;re not necessarily representative of the film. No one is likely to have made a film about the Stonewall Riots in order to distort the story. But they may have had to do certain casting to get the film made. The Harvey Milk film [Milk, 2008] was romanticized. It was wonderful. I loved Pride [2014], that was romanticized, fictionalized. I suppose they were more attractive looking people in the film than were there in life. Does that matter?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Has narrating the documentary Muslim Drag Queens, and learning about that part of the LGBTI community, made you connect to Pride in a different way?<\/strong><br \/>\nWell, I&rsquo;m not sure there is a <a title=\"\" class=\"aalmanual\" target=\"_blank\"   href=\"https:\/\/chaturbate.com\/in\/?tour=R2Xc&#38;campaign=hl4zp&#38;track=gfcsb\">gay<\/a> [or LGBTI] community. There are <a title=\"\" class=\"aalmanual\" target=\"_blank\"   href=\"https:\/\/chaturbate.com\/in\/?tour=R2Xc&#38;campaign=hl4zp&#38;track=gfcsb\">gay<\/a> communities and that&rsquo;s one of them, one that I&rsquo;m not privileged to be a part of. I&rsquo;m <a title=\"\" class=\"aalmanual\" target=\"_blank\"   href=\"https:\/\/chaturbate.com\/in\/?tour=R2Xc&#38;campaign=hl4zp&#38;track=gfcsb\">gay<\/a>, but I&rsquo;m not Asian. Gay Asians have a series of particular problems that they&rsquo;re coping with. What I like about those drag queens is they&rsquo;re practicing Muslims. They&rsquo;re down on the mat praying to Allah. And their Allah loves <a title=\"\" class=\"aalmanual\" target=\"_blank\"   href=\"https:\/\/chaturbate.com\/in\/?tour=R2Xc&#38;campaign=hl4zp&#38;track=gfcsb\">gay<\/a> people. So if ever some Muslim says that Allah doesn&rsquo;t like <a title=\"\" class=\"aalmanual\" target=\"_blank\"   href=\"https:\/\/chaturbate.com\/in\/?tour=R2Xc&#38;campaign=hl4zp&#38;track=gfcsb\">gay<\/a> people &ndash; they need to talk to those Muslims. But it&rsquo;s hard for them, desperately hard.<\/p>\n<p>I&rsquo;m afraid religion&rsquo;s never been much of a friend to <a title=\"\" class=\"aalmanual\" target=\"_blank\"   href=\"https:\/\/chaturbate.com\/in\/?tour=R2Xc&#38;campaign=hl4zp&#38;track=gfcsb\">gay<\/a> people. Except the Quakers. Quakers have never had a problem. And yet they&rsquo;re the people who are most bound by the Bible. They follow its instructions. &lsquo;Thou Shalt Not Kill.&rsquo; They&rsquo;re pacifists. Why aren&rsquo;t all Christians pacifists?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Did the experience of narrating the documentary teach you a lot about drag?<\/strong><br \/>\nI&rsquo;ve known about drag all my life. There&rsquo;s drag in pantomime. The dame is a sort of drag. And I&rsquo;ve played a dame myself &ndash; Widow Twankey. That&rsquo;s one sort of drag, isn&rsquo;t it. Pantomime drag is another thing all together. You&rsquo;re not meant to be a convincing <a title=\"\" class=\"aalmanual\" target=\"_blank\"   href=\"https:\/\/www.flirt4free.com\/live\/girls\/?mp_code=akftr\">woman<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Would you do drag now?<\/strong><br \/>\nIt&rsquo;s never really interested [me]. I&rsquo;m the sort of <a title=\"\" class=\"aalmanual\" target=\"_blank\"   href=\"https:\/\/chaturbate.com\/in\/?tour=R2Xc&#38;campaign=hl4zp&#38;track=gfcsb\">gay<\/a> <a title=\"\" class=\"aalmanual\" target=\"_blank\"   href=\"https:\/\/chaturbate.com\/in\/?tour=R2Xc&#38;campaign=hl4zp&#38;track=gfcsb\">man<\/a> who likes to wear trousers. When I&rsquo;m in drag I look too alarmingly like my sister, and I don&rsquo;t think that&rsquo;s fair on her!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Do you think one of the reasons the concept of pride is so important is because it advertises a community where everyone is welcome?<\/strong><br \/>\nThat&rsquo;s a lovely way of looking at it. It certainly is that. Although I suppose Pride is different for every person. Some people are just gawping. For me it&rsquo;s a celebration: being out and not giving a damn. Being grateful that we&rsquo;re in a country where that&rsquo;s possible. But it does make me think. Three hours away in Moscow, they&rsquo;re not going to have another pride march for 100 years, it&rsquo;s been banned. I wouldn&rsquo;t like to be growing up <a title=\"\" class=\"aalmanual\" target=\"_blank\"   href=\"https:\/\/chaturbate.com\/in\/?tour=R2Xc&#38;campaign=hl4zp&#38;track=gfcsb\">gay<\/a> in Russia.<\/p>\n<p>People say it&rsquo;s all over here, but in Northern Ireland it&rsquo;s not. Gay people can&rsquo;t get married in Northern Ireland. Southern Ireland voted [yes] in the referendum and everyone was very proud. But in the north&hellip; So I think Pride&rsquo;s about realizing you can&rsquo;t take your rights for granted. Coming out, for me, and for a lot of people &ndash; it does politicize you. It makes you take an active interest in politics, because you watch the way your life and other <a title=\"\" class=\"aalmanual\" target=\"_blank\"   href=\"https:\/\/chaturbate.com\/in\/?tour=R2Xc&#38;campaign=hl4zp&#38;track=gfcsb\">gay<\/a> people&rsquo;s lives can be affected by it.<\/p>\n<p>Politics is really about making connections. We&rsquo;re all brothers, whatever we look like, however old we are or what our gender is. Rather than a community, it&rsquo;s an international movement. And there will be some people today who come out. They come in from the countryside and by the end of the evening have made friends and think &lsquo;I&rsquo;m not on my own.&rsquo;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.manchesterpride.com\/\">www.manchesterpride.com<\/a><\/p>\n<p>The post <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"http:\/\/www.gaystarnews.com\/article\/interview-sir-ian-mckellen-i-was-thrown-out-of-taylor-swifts-new-york-apartment\/\">INTERVIEW: Sir Ian McKellen &ndash; &lsquo;I was thrown out of Taylor Swift&rsquo;s New York apartment!&rsquo;<\/a> appeared first on <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"http:\/\/www.gaystarnews.com\/\">Gay Star News<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Jamie Tabberer<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.gaystarnews.com\/article\/interview-sir-ian-mckellen-i-was-thrown-out-of-taylor-swifts-new-york-apartment\/\" class=\"autohyperlink\">www.gaystarnews.com\/article\/interview-sir-ian-mckellen-i-was-thrown-out-of-taylor-swifts-new-york-apartment\/<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>INTERVIEW: Sir Ian McKellen \u2013 \u2018I was thrown out of Taylor Swift\u2019s New York apartment!\u2019 Iconic actor Sir Ian McKellen thrilled crowds at today&rsquo;s Manchester Pride, where he marched as grand marshal.
