Exactly - if New Orleans is going to be New Orleans - then Big Freedia fits the bill



No. Kermit Ruffin or Shortly fits the bill. Not some no name transvestite that’s mostly known for shitty music and Juan Lafonta commercials.

If that is the case, then New Orleans has to be the least interesting and cultural city in the country,

Then again, those people base their culture on inventing twerking.

It just blows my mind that the inferiority complex is so strong, they are so desperate to find something they contributed to the world, that twerking is what they landed on to parade.

Although I agree with you - they weren’t the choices

Hell - I’m a musician and New Orleans native too - they should’ve asked me

Big Freedia’s probably cheap

There’s no doubt in my mind that you’re Bella/JMCS/Digits.

I would think Nunguesser was thinking of the entire state with the entertainment option, but has to use NOLA as the setting for the national appeal.

Let's not forget, it is not quite the family event it used to be, as displayed 2 years ago

Also a covid law breaker, and not really nationally know.

Not many big names that are nationally relevant right now. Especially that fit the bill.

“In 2016, Freedia was indicted on charges of theft of government funds after she failed to report her income earnings between 2010 and 2014 while still claiming Section 8 housing benefits.”

Sounds about right for a “performer” from New Orleans loved by Destroya.

A welfare recipient sounds like a much better representation of New Orleans and Louisiana than someone who is sucessful

Well that definitely fits the bill. Her and Latoya have a few things in common

No she didn't.

Possibly, but most on this board don't even know her music.

I have nothing against her and have no issue with her singing on New Years, but I have no idea what she sings.

Isn't there a little dude from Livingston that did almost win Idol? Forgot his name.
