Congratulations to Ariana DeBose for winning the Best Supporting Actress Award for her performance as Anita in “West Side Story” (2021). Rita Moreno won the same award for playing Anita in the 1964 version of the musical.
In her acceptance speech DeBose spoke about the importance of representation and opening doors for marginalized people.
“Imagine this little girl in the back seat of a white Ford Focus, look into her eyes. You see an openly queer woman of color, an Afro-Latina, who found her strength in life through art. And that is, I think, what we’re here to celebrate.”
DeBose came out to her grandparents in 2015. She identifies as Queer.
In 2017 she met Sue Makkoo, a costume designer and professor, while working on Summer: The Donna Summer Musical (DeBose played Disco Donna). They are currently in a relationship and attended the 2022 Oscar’s ceremony together.
DeBose and actress Jo Ellen Pellmen created the Unruly Hearts Initiative to help young people connect with organizations and charities that advocate for the LGBTQ+ community.

OSCAR 2022 | Timothée Chalamet rockstar del red carpet. L’inclusività dilaga nei premi a miglior film, migliori attori non protagonisti e regia
Serata movimentata quella degli Oscar 2022. L’evento più eclatante è stato Will Smith che ha mollato un pugno a Chris Rock salendo sul palco: in realtà si trattava di una manata ma è stato un gesto di violenza gratuito e non necessario. La battuta di Chris sui capelli rasati di Jada Pinkett Smith è stata infelice perché l’ha paragonata a G.I. Jane, forse però non sapeva che la moglie di Smith ha…

The Bullet (Ariana DeBose), Hamilton: An American Musical Original Broadway Cast
The Bullet returns! The one in the blue coat has already sold (I am currently waiting for more pieces to arrive to finish another!), but you can purchase the cream vest at my Etsy.
Also! I made a short video of my sculpting process for the cream vest version. Check it out at my Instagram!
Tony, Maria, and Anita, West Side Story, 1961 and 2021 Film Adaptations
West Side Story was kind of my first real musical theater obsession. It also opened up Shakespeare to me for the first time! Both are loves that have never left my nerdy little heart.
I made Tony and Maria from both movies as well as Ariana DeBose as Anita in Spielberg’s film. If I can find pieces I like, I would love to make Rita Moreno as Anita (and maybe Valentina!). But for now, you can purchase the sets of Tony and Maria or Ariana!Anita HERE at my Etsy.
Anita,West Side Story(2021)
Ariana DeBose’s Anita returns! Two available at my Etsy. I’m also working on more of 2021 Tony and Maria, so I hope to have at least two more sets of those available for sale as well.

these women. this story. this conversation. what an honor to cover @hollywoodreporter’s january 27th issue, especially with two women who have the greatest work ethic i have ever witnessed. i implore you to read our words with an understanding of the cutthroat industry we have found ourselves in— one that is not particularly kind to women, young and not. understand the gravity of our situation. the positions we are put in— uncomfortable, yet informative to not only ourselves, but hopefully the next generation of young actors who may have a romanticized version of this industry in their minds. @arianadebose and i have been blessed to carry a torch that rita lit long ago. and we aren’t going anywhere.
thank you, @hollywoodreporter. and thank you, @joy.wong for the photos, @clarissanya for the lovely hair, @ninapark as always for the beautiful makeup, and @sarahslutsky for the impeccable styling (we love @dior).
and finally, thank you, rebecca sun, for spending some time with us to write this piece.

I love the range of projects we get to work on, we are very fortunate in that regard, similarly another way fortune has smiled on us comes from the fact that we have gotten to work on the last four Steven Spielberg films. We have never actually met Mr Spielberg but like everyone else in the world we are huge fans So for this project, which had such a rich culture-driven aesthetic, we were thrilled to have had our most expansive creative experience yet. We finished a total of 16 different pieces of creative for West Side Story, all of which we are so very proud! A shout out to our partners at Fox/Disney for giving us the runaway and to Team Gravillis for doing what they do - the movie is out now only in theaters and an example of filmmaking craftsmanship of a master – enjoy
Director Steven Spielberg and Director of Photography, Janusz Kaminski, take you behind the cinematography of West Side Story. ✨
