Meet Ladybeard Aussie Pro wrestling deathmetal singer, based in Japan

This hairy, smiling, cross-dressed man is the latest sensation in Japan, but his fame is growing beyond the borders of the Asian country! He’s Australian and his real name is Richard Magarey, but you can call him Ladybeard. Ladybeard is a man of multiple talents, and looking pretty nice in feminine dresses is only one of them: he’s an actor, a wrestler, a martial artist and metal singer.

“After I started wrestling, I still wanted to sing heavy metal, so I kept the same character because I already had a fanbase for it. I was doing metal covers of Cantonese pop songs while wearing a dress.”

“After every show people would come up to me and say, ‘That was crazy, you should go to Japan, because the Japanese would love this’.”

Later on Ladybeard started appearing in Japanese magazines and was offered to form Ladybaby, a kawaii metal band, along with 2 teenagers

Sydney’s Mardi Gras parade is among the world’s largest LGBTQI celebrations. The numbers are mind-boggling: 10,000 participants parade along Oxford and Flinders streets in a train measuring almost six kilometres long. Hundreds of thousands of spectators cheer on the parade and its glittering, music-pumping floats (there were 144 floats in 2014) for just over two hours, while 2000 volunteers ensure the event runs smoothly.

"Sydney might be one of the most accepting cities in the world for LGBTI people, but there are still pockets of Sydney where it is not accepted."

Drawing on his own experience growing up in Western Sydney, Mr Jahshan felt the gay community was not accepted in his neighbourhood, and progress was still needed in some parts of Sydney.

"The Parramatta area is far more progressive than it was ten years ago but the LGBTQI community is still invisible," Mr Jahshan said.

The Mardi Gras, the largest LGBTQI night parade in the world, is one of the biggest tourism drawcards for Sydney each year.
