Trevor W. of 'The Doorman' Smiles on Drag Queens — Trannies, Not So Much
http://nymag.com/daily/food/2008/07/trevor_w_of_the_doorman_smiles.html7/9/2008
The Doorman, premiering July 18, follows jet-setting gatekeeper Trevor
W. as he enjoys a fast life of bribes, buxom beauties, penthouse
apartments, and air-kisses. In the mock-umentary, Amy Sacco, of
Bungalow 8, calls him the best doorman in the city, which is all too
easy to believe, given his hilarious vacuousness (he can't even do
yoga right). One day, however, he gets canned from his gig at Crobar
and blacklisted for failing to recognize Nicolas Cage, and outlandish
boa wearer Fabrizio Brienza, of Happy Valley, takes his place in the
limelight, tweaking his nipples for the camera and bragging that for
the right price, he can put you anywhere in New York — even in the lap
of Joe Torre. We asked lead actor Lucas Akoskin to channel Trevor W.
(Make sure you watch the clip to get his voice in your head.) Not
surprisingly, Trevor's musings about celebrity, style, and nightlife
were, well, not much different than those of the actual doormen we've
talked to in the past!
