Get to know New York-based actor and writer PAUL MCCALLION in this salty-sweet edition of Edible Moments. Read on below for PAUL’s answers to a series of our classic Buds questionnaires. Photographer SHAWN MICHAEL JONES soaks the images with his signature technicolor flavors.
What flavor would you be - and what flavor would you never be?
Caramel sea salt. Delicious, obvi, but gotta have that salty bite to appreciate the sweetness all the more. And what would I never be? Peppermint, pumpkin, coconut.. anything seasonal. I demand to be enjoyed all year round, so don't you dare take me off menu.
Favorite musicians right now?
Beyonce (eternally), my neighbor's dog who barks every time the Uber Eats knocks on my door but not hers (ironically), Addison Rae (unironically), and dj_mandyy on TikTok (iconically)
Boxers or Briefs, or underwear is a construct?
Boxer briefs of course, the underwear binary is indeed a heteronormative construct.
Favorite drag queen?
It will always be Julliard-trained operatic tenor Jasmine Rice LaBeija. Jasmine could do Turandot, but Pavarotti couldn't do Jasmine's Margaret Cho mix.
Mushrooms or LSD - who’s gayer?
LSD = gay, Mushrooms = queer... need I say more?
Joints or pipes—why?
