Bhalisa kwiNcwadana yeShishini yaBabukeli
UPeri uhlala enomdla ngeHunk-O-Mania kwiminyaka engama-21 kamva kwaye ungumnini obandakanyekayo, ephendula iifowuni kwaye esebenza ngasemva. Akazange aphuphe ukuba inkampani yakhe iya kuba lishishini lezigidi ngezigidi. Ekuqaleni wayevela kwidolophu encinci engaphandle kwePorto, ePortugal, uPeri wachaza indaleko kaHunk-O-Mania, umbono wabasetyhini kunye nehlazo lokuhluba.
Okokuqala, chaza amava eHunk-O-Mania.
Sibonisana kakhulu; asifani neChippendales. Umboniso wam unjengabafana abomeleleyo besenza umdaniso omncinci, bema, behambahamba kwaye benika abantu basetyhini uhlobo olufanelekileyo lokuqwalaselwa.
Kuhleli ngonaphakade ukuba amadoda abe nethuba lokubona imiboniso efanayo, silapha ukubonelela ngenkonzo yabasetyhini. IHunk-O-Mania yindawo ebalulekileyo yabasetyhini ukuze bonwabele ukuba ngumfazi.
Ngoobani abahlutha amadoda? Yimalini abayenzayo?
Sizisa abafana abaziimodeli zokuqina komzimba, iimodeli zefashoni, sinabafana kwisikolo se-med, sinepolisa yokwenyani, sinomntu osebenza eWall Street, iimvumi, abadlali, kwaye bayayithanda. Kufana nomsebenzi wephupha.
Banokwenza iidola ezingama-40 ngobusuku, abanye benza i-1,200 yeedola; kuxhomekeke kumgudu wabo.
Kodwa bayakwazi ukudanisa?
Kuya kufuneka ube nesingqisho, kodwa asikhangeli abadanisi abaziingcali. Kwakukho ixesha apho sasiqesha abadanisi abaqeqeshiweyo, kwaye amantombazana ayezamla. Abafuni umboniso obanzi. Umboniso obanzi weBroadway. Singumboniso womntu oyindoda. Ingakumbi malunga nomzimba wesilisa kunye nokubhiyozela ukuba ngumfazi.
Ngaba amadoda anokuhlala kubaphulaphuli benkqubo yeHunk-O-Mania?
Abaphulaphuli bethu ikakhulu ngabasetyhini, siphambili kakhulu malunga naloo nto, kodwa ukuba umntu oyindoda ufuna ukuya-gay, ngqo-wonke umntu wamkelekile ukuba angene kwaye abe nexesha elimnandi.
Ngaba ubungumakhi womzimba kwaye wazihluba ngokwakho?
Ewe, injongo yam yokuqala yayikukuba ngumakhi womzimba; Ndakhuphisana ndineminyaka eli-17 ubudala. Ndandiwina, ndibeka amahlanu aphezulu kuyo yonke indawo, ndaziwa kakhulu, kwaye ndaqonda ukuba akukho mali ininzi kulwakhiwo lomzimba.
Ndandikhuphisana ngexesha lekholeji, kwaye umntu othile esikolweni wandazisa kwishishini lokuhluba. Yayiyindlela yokuba ndenze imali eyongezelelweyo kwaye ndihlale ndimile. Kwakothusa ukuqala kwam ukuya eqongeni, ngaphakathi ngaphakathi ndandineentloni.
Ngaba wonwabile ngaphandle kweentloni?
Nda. Kwakungumbono omkhulu ukuva amantombazana ekhala, ukuba nabo bonwabe. Kukwenza uzive ngathi awuselilo intshontsho elibi, akusayi kukuhleka kwakhona. Ukuqala kwam ukuza kweli lizwe ndineminyaka eli-12 ubudala, ndandihlukile, ngamanye amaxesha amantombazana eklasini ayendihleka.
Ke, ndiye ndafunda ukuziva ndikhululekile eqongeni — ukhulula isinxibo sibe sinye ngexesha ngolonwabo, ngendlela emnandi, eyonwabisayo. Imuvi Ukudibana neBharbar noArnold Schwarzenegger wayephumile ngeloxesha, ke ndaye ndaphela ndisenza umxholo wobuhedeni, ndazibiza ngokuba ndinguArmando uMphambukeli. [Uyahleka.]
Kuvakala ngathi ukukhulula kwakumnandi kwaye kunenzuzo, kutheni usungula iHunk-O-Mania?
Ndabona ukungabikho kwishishini lobusuku. Ngapha koko, ndidiniwe kukusebenzela abantu abanesithunzi, ukuqhuba iiyure ezintathu ukuya kwigig eConnecticut ayenzeki. Ekuqaleni, xa ndandiqala uHunk-O-Mania, ndenza yonke into: umnyango, ndandiyi-MC, umphathi kunye nomdanisi.
Ikhulile ukusukela ngoko.
Emva kokudibana nomfazi wam wesibini [uFran Peri] kwiminyaka eli-14 eyadlulayo, ndiye ndakhula ndisuka nje kwisiXeko saseNew York ndaya kwizixeko ezili-19. Uye wandinika umbono wobufazi. Ngaphambi koko, yayindim kuphela kunye namadoda esenza izigqibo. Kodwa eli lishishini elinabaphulaphuli ababhinqileyo, ngenxa yoko undinika ukuqonda kwaye ndiyalixabisa kakhulu.
Kukho isixa esikhulu sokuchukumisa phakathi kwabaphangi beHunk-O-Mania kunye namalungu abaphulaphuli, anokuba yinkohliso, hayi?
Kukho izikhokelo. Ndihlala ndikhumbuza abafana abatsha, le ayisiFunland, ulapha ukuza kusebenza. Ke ukuba awuyilandeli imigaqo, uyagxothwa.
Ngaba ishishini lakho lichaphazele intshukumo ye- # MeToo nangayiphi na indlela?
Hayi, andicingi njalo. Okona kuninzi, ngakumbi emva kweziselo ezimbalwa, abafazi ngabo banobukrwada kunabafana.
Ngaba bayabamba?
Ewe! Abafana kufuneka babenonyamezelo oluthile. Ndiyabaxelela ukuba ukuba umntu uzama ukubamba iinxalenye zakho zangasese, mxelele ukuba ungagxothwa, kunokuba, Awungekhe uyenze loo nto! kuba emva koko unokucaphuka.
Ngaba ucinga ukuba ufudukele ePortugal ube nefuthe kukhetho lwakho lomsebenzi?
Ndangcungcuthekiswa ukufika kwam kweli lizwe ndisengumntwana; Khange ndikwazi nokuthetha isiNgesi. Emva phayaa, bekukho umsantsa omkhulu phakathi kweYurophu neMelika, izimbo kunye nefashoni. Ndakhangeleka ndahlukile, ndinxibe ngokwahlukileyo.
Xa ndijonga emva ngoku, yandinceda ukuba ndibe yile nto ndikuyo. Ke into yokuba ndihlukumezekile kwaye ndihlekwa yayindifanele, yandomeleza. Ndingumntwana wasemzini ovela kwinto kwaye wenza ubukhosi.
Mhlawumbi ndim, kodwa kutheni ndicinga ukuba umboniso wamadoda obhinqileyo ubhiyozela kwaye ulungile, ngelixa umboniso wabasetyhini ungamadoda ungathandekiyo? Ngaba kukho umgangatho ophindwe kabini?
Kuncinci ngokwesini kwabasetyhini. Abasetyhini beza bengamaqela kwaye kufana nomdlalo wehlaya. Sisizathu sokuhlengahlengisa ukubuyela kubayeni babo okanye amasoka abo [ehleka] kwaye ube nexesha elimnandi. Apho kunjengamadoda, yinto engaphezulu yesondo, kwaye akukho mfuneko yokuba ahambe nabahlobo babo.
Inenyani kangakanani imovie yamadoda aqaqambayo Umlingo uMike ?
Andicingi ukuba yonke into ichanekile ngeepesenti ezili-100. Umzekelo, ukuba nabaphi na abahluli beHunk-O-Mania bathatha iziyobisi, njengakwimovie, ngekhe bahlale. Kuya kufuneka uphile emzimbeni. Nangona kunjalo, ndonwabile ukuba i-movie ikhanyise ukukhanya kumzi mveliso, yazisa kwindawo ephambili.
Kuthekani ngehlazo ngokubetha ngokubanzi, ungalichaza njani ishishini kuluntu lwakho lwedolophu yaseNew Jersey, i-PTA?
Bayayazi into endiyenzayo, andiyifihli. Babona uFacebook wam, kwaye umfazi wam ngamanye amaxesha uthumela izinto malunga neklabhu. Nabahlobo bakhe abasuka kwi-PTA? Baye baya kwiklabhu kwaye bavutha! Ukuba nabani na unento embi anokucinga ngayo okanye ayithethayo ngam, leyo yingxaki yakhe, kuba ndiyayithanda into endiyenzayo.
