And I'm Gio. And together we are... The Jacksons. These boots, I will put on any given hat
0:08
OK, these boots were definitely my showstoppers. So today, we are taking pictures
0:14
for our one-year wedding anniversary. A lot of people think because we bad
0:20
I mean, you know. We not men. We still identify as men. Yes. People be so confused
0:25
You don't have a cutie, sir. Who said we did? We said that
0:30
Who said that? We said that. Who said that? So I have this one cousin who voices her concerns and opinions quite frequently
0:38
Are y'all trying to be trans or why don't y'all just take it all the way there
0:47
I'm Key. This is my husband, Gio. People think we're trans, but we actually just been presenting men
0:52
Let's see one of our most iconic looks. Okay. So do you remember this
0:57
Oh, yes. I really love this because if y'all can't tell I love a turtleneck, a turtleneck be so cute
1:06
So we met back in 2018. He actually came to my job
1:10
It was a fast food seafood restaurant. He came in and he saw me and my coworkers noticed that
1:16
He was looking at me and he was like, did you notice that guy kept staring at you
1:20
Like, did you notice him? But then actually we got each other on Instagram
1:25
I'm like, hey, was that you that worked at such and such and such? And he said, yeah, that was me
1:30
So from there, it's been history. But as soon as I saw him, I was on that
1:36
I guess you could say street wear, urban wear, very much Jordans, jeans, graphic tee
1:45
Very dressed down, very cool. That's definitely how Key met me. Honestly, I'm not going to say I didn't have a sense of style
1:53
But, I mean, if it matched, then that's just what I put on for that day
1:59
Actually, I'm going to go for the boots. Okay, that's a good piece
2:03
The boots, you know? The boots were a huge statement piece. Yes
2:08
The fur, I just love it. Like, it just really gave majestic
2:13
Like, I don't know. It just makes you feel very, ugh, beastly, like, animal-like
2:18
I would describe my sexuality as just gay. Honestly, I always knew I was gay from a young child
2:23
Some people say they don believe that you can be gay from birth but honestly I been gay all my life So yeah Okay so funny story All my life I actually had girlfriends All my life up until maybe like high school I had girlfriends
2:39
But then when I met Babe here, I became officially gay. Hold on, I just got to pull out, you know, these boots
2:48
You know these, I wore these boots around. These boots, I will put on any given day
2:53
Okay, these boots were definitely my showstoppers. stoppers for many. So growing up, I've always pretty much presented like more masculine
3:07
until maybe about like 10th grade, 11th grade. I started experimenting with my hair. So it
3:15
started off with U-part wigs and from U-part wigs, it went to lace wigs. And here we are
3:20
Today, 32-inch bustin'. Funny enough, we told each other, like, we would never wear hair
3:27
We would never wear hair. We would never wear makeup. Yes, oh my god. Now look
3:31
Now look. We're here. Now, maybe not in like a good wig and a good beat, okay
3:37
Most of my friends already knew, like, the ins and outs of my intimate relationship anyway
3:41
Now, our family on the other hand, some took it with a grain of salt
3:46
and some definitely had a hard time digesting what exactly was going on
3:52
So I have this one cousin who voices her concerns and opinions quite frequently
3:57
I honestly think she just can't get over the fact that I'm a bad at her
4:01
I'm not prepared for this at all. I'm like kind of really anxious
4:06
and kind of a little on the edge just to see what she's gonna have to say
4:15
Well, when Key and Gio first got together, I thought it was cool because he was still, you know, dressing like a boy
4:21
But now it's a little different. I'm just a bit confused, like, what's really going on
4:31
Hey, how are you? I'm good. How are you? I'm all right. I haven't seen you in a while
4:36
Yeah, it's been a minute. First, I definitely wanted to know, like, how did you view me and Q when we first got together
4:43
When y'all first got together, it was nothing. Like y'all both was boys. So it was cool
4:47
Well, I'm gonna stop you right there. You mean we were both boys. We're still men
4:53
We're still men. Nothing has changed. That's how I got a period
4:59
Right Y look like girls Look but we aren so But I not understanding like are y trying to be trans or
5:11
why don't y'all just take it all the way there don't be happy in the middle we like this is what
5:19
i'm saying like we're sitting here and i'm telling her what it is and she's saying because i don't
5:23
see why you won't just take the extra step and just but maybe i don't want to maybe i don't want
5:28
to like that's the thing everybody's so opinionated and always saying what i should do do this do that
5:33
i don't want to do it if i wanted to do it i would have did it i don't want to do it i don't have no
5:37
interest in being a woman i don't have no interest in being trans i'm just a feminine man that's it
5:43
that's all so i think the best thing for you to do is try to understand well help me understand
5:51
because I think bottom line is we're not trans. We don't want to be women
5:59
We do like wearing makeup. We do like wearing hair. I don't think that defines, like, who we are as people, as men
6:06
It was just a shock. It's just been a shock to see you go from masculine to so feminine
6:14
Like, I'm just, I just miss you being Gio that I know, the boy Gio
6:21
versus the extra glam, girly, feminine Gio. And you know what? You're entitled to your opinion
6:29
I still dress like a boy every day. Just because you see me right now, right here, with a wig on and makeup on
6:34
that does not mean that I don't, tomorrow you won't see me with a white beater on and some basketball shorts
6:39
I still am a boy. Actually, I'm not. I'm a grown man now. We don't look like this all day, every day
6:45
Quite frankly, we don't even have the desire to look like this all day, every day. It really takes a lot
6:49
It takes a lot to even get ready and do all of this. Do it look good
6:52
Yeah. Bomb. Yeah. But this is our everyday life. So what do you think about our relationship now
6:59
Well, now that you've been elaborated and broke everything down in me
7:03
I understand that this is just how you pair yourself outside. So I just am coming to understand that this is just how you choose to look
7:13
And I just be okay with it. I appreciate it. Hug down. Aww. Yes. Oh
7:24
I think we should take a picture and give him a sneak peek. Your hair look cute. Yes
7:29
You look so beautiful. Thank you. Did you just see that comment? What did it say Men are so lost This is insane Ew they kissed Aren that some people doing right Right like what Somebody said what sexuality is this now
7:44
Is it not just gay? I could have sworn it was just gay. Common misconceptions that we have as a couple
7:49
is that we're not really together. Some people think we're just best friends
7:54
Some people actually think that we are related. Yeah, some people, no, some people say that we look alike
7:59
I don't see it. Somebody commented, said, manly as-pians. Well, aren't we men
8:08
I mean, I don't know how else they would look. I mean, I don't know. I don't know what else are you expecting
8:14
You don't have a cutie, sir. Who said we did? We said that
8:19
Who said that? We said that. Who said that? You said that? I don't remember saying that
8:23
I don't remember stating that on the internet. I never, I don't think I ever
8:27
in a way, some of the comments definitely feel kind of liberating
8:31
and empowering because it's kind of like we take the power back and we have the power because we're
8:37
not portrayed to be something we're not exactly we state up front that we are men we don't identify
8:42
as anything but that we don't want to change into anything else when I'm in our skin and just that
8:47
alone is enough so today we are taking pictures for our one year wedding anniversary one year of
8:56
be the Jacksons. Oh my gosh, I'm so excited. Are you ready
9:00
Oh my gosh, are y'all. Oh my gosh. Okay, outfits are giving
9:04
Yes. Family in love. So today, I think we're going for an intimate
9:10
more like just giving people a glimpse of us. Yes. Like, as a union
9:15
Really showcasing our love. Yeah. And, you know, making a show through the pictures
9:18
our relationship works because we give each other space we also know how to communicate
9:28
and we definitely keep love in the center of everything we do like that's like my best friend
9:35
he's never doubted me from day one and i just feel like that's somebody that you need in your
9:40
corner for somebody to always love you and he protects me and that's all i can ask for
9:46
The future holds a lot of screen time for us, so be prepared to see us everywhere
9:52
Every, every, everywhere. They're going to get sick of us, honestly. We're trying to be the next power couple, okay
9:59
So just know, when you see me, you'll see him. When you see him, you'll see me
