BRAND NEW LEOPOLD NUNAN’s MUSIC VIDEO: FEELING LIKE MYSELF AGAIN, entirely shot in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
LEOPOLD NUNAN ON VOYAGE LA MAGAZINE
Today we’d like to introduce you to Leopold Nunan.
Leopold Nunan is a Brazilian-American multidisciplinary artist. He started his singing career as a lead choir boy for the Ipanema Catholic School (Colégio São Paulo) in Rio. At 13, he started studying theatre and ballet, which led to numerous performances. At 17, Nunan was a musical theatre working union artist, scoring multiple lead roles in musicals and TV. He also taught dance and performance to hundreds of kids in his homeland – won the teacher of the year and multiple awards with his own Dance Company.
Also at 17, he shot his first national televised campaign for Coca-Cola as a rebel Mohawk teenager. At 18, influenced by artists like David Bowie, Deee Lite, Silvester, Depeche Mode, he turned to electronic music and worked with Brazilian electronics legends like Andre Gismonti (Utter Records) and Raul Rachid (Saara Saara). From Raul’s home studio in Niterói, they struck together a dance floor anthem. “I’ve Got it” was an instant club hit, which led to nationwide touring. The music video was aired on MTV and it was played in clubs across the world. His follow-up hits “Feel the house” and “Generator” also reached a global audience and cemented his presence as a dance floor vocalist. Considered the first house music singer in Brazil. Determined to broaden his horizons and continue upwards in his flourishing career, Nunan decided to pack up and move to LA at 23. He was awarded the Extraordinary artistic Ability Visa and was invited to pursue his career goals in America. Nunan has been an asset to the music, art and performance scene, bringing the tropical flavor everywhere he goes, every time he performs. He also known as Leo From Rio currently resides in the City of West Hollywood and from his home studio he records all his music and plans his music videos and performances.
In Radio, Leo co-hosted the awesome KPFK’s 90.7 FM, Dj Potira’s Radio show for entire California, also worked as a stage host numerous times for the legendary Brazilian Annual Carnaval Party for thousands of people, also commanded a 49 summers school of samba just with his vocals and was twice the headliner of Long Beach Gay Pride main dance stage. He has released independently tracks followed by music videos such as Multiple Personality, Got to be Strong, Bate Bum Bum. In 2019 he signed with Australian Global Dance Label “Wile Out” and joined forces to release “Banze”, a social-political statement, Leopold invited Amazon’s Xingu Tribe Leader Anuiá Amaru to star and speak in the video. Music video was shot in Rio and Salton Sea at an anarchy night out in the Slabs all guerilla style. Shot, directed and edited by Emmy Award-Winning director Billy Clift. Leo also did incredibly well in comedy and TV loved him, came up as a fan favorite of Food Network’s hit show Worst Cooks in America and the hilarious VH1’s “Walk of Shame Shuttle” as he plays a funny drag queen. Follow him on insta for his weekly product reviews and posts @theleofromrio.
Alright, so let’s dig a little deeper into the story – has it been an easy path overall and if not, what were the challenges you’ve had to overcome?
Art chose me instead of me choosing art. I had no way out and I knew it wouldn’t be anything but smooth. But the rocky road does excite me. I am this restless soul that needs this type of energy and I am constantly coming up with new ideas. New shows. New performances. There is always something to be said; a dance to be danced and songs to be sung. I have responsibility with my ancestors to keep creating art and representing my homeland. Also, to offer my voice to the underprivileged and oppressed communities. Art makes the world worth living. Makes me move forward. I worked in every job you can imagine to sustain myself and brought my artistic ways in everything I did. I tried my best bet in every endeavor. To make art, it’s a privilege and I cherish every second of it.
Can you tell our readers more about what you do and what you think sets you apart from others?
I am a singer, dancer, actor who loves to direct, choreograph, produce. I am hands-on in my career. Primarily a vocalist, record artist and I am a wild horse on stage. Live shows and performances are my forte and my main media. I work a lot with my voice, so I have done major work as a VO actor, high skilled. I also love doing TV and comedy has been a total go to for me. It brings me so much joy and totally feels right. Check me out on Food Network’s hit show Worst Cooks in America Season 6. I have been writing, producing and directing all songs and my music videos. I produce songs from my home studio and love to collaborate with other musicians. I am honored to have been part of the alternative performance art scene in Los Angeles. I am also a queer activist and won’t shy from political statements. I am also known for my microphone hosting skills. I love to command big shows, pump up the crowd and headline a Band or even an entire drumming school of samba. I am known really for my charisma, big personality, life of the party type of personality. I bring Carnaval everywhere I go.
Let’s talk about our city – what do you love? What do you not love?
I love the weather here and me, my life partner and my incredible Pitbull. We love outdoor activities. We hike, bike a lot and we go often to the beach. I learned how to understand and cherish this city with all my heart. Being an entertainer, I enjoy very much living here and interacting with other artists, sharing our passions and contributing with the artistic community. Trying to find something I don’t like. Hard task. Probably the traffic. But I do understand that traffic comes with big cities. I make it work. It’s worth the sacrifice. ;D

IAN MACKINNON & TRAVIS WOOD presents
THE ADONIS PROJECT: MASQUERADE
a sexy night of curated performances, video, and interactive queer art at Human Resources in Chinatown.
SATURDAY, OCTOBER 10TH, 2015
8:00 PM Open Gallery, Installations & Video Screenings
9:00 PM SHOW
$10 (Ages 18+)
Tickets: www.theadonisproject.bpt.m
Info: facebook.com/
#theadonisproject #getmoregay
#adonisproject #adonisprojectmasquerade
For the second year in a row the notorious Adonis Theater, legendary gay adult movie house, will be creatively resurrected for one night only. Artists from the LA queer community descend on Human Resources to share their hot visions around themes of Gay Sex and Queer Liberation in context of the current state of assimilation, evolving LGBTQ space and shrinking ghettos. It is a creative activist effort and sexy night of interactive queer entertainment which will transform Human Resources into a sexual amusement park of gay art, video and performance.
This year we are introducing the the theme of Masquerade. Masks are a potent subject for queer people, from being forced to grow up in the closet and wear the mask we are given by society, to the multiple masks we wear as adults as we negotiate between the heterosexually dominated world and the various queer spaces we inhabit and create. Historically gay sex spaces featuring masquerade parties were designed to celebrate debauchery and to threaten the very social fabric of the land; i.e. protest homophobic fascist government and also provide a safe anonymous provocative gathering place for alternative types.
**Complimentary masks will be provided for the audience and a clothes check will also be available.
At 8 PM we will have an open gallery with interactive installation artists, photography and video art. Performances will begin at 9 PM, followed by DJ ANDREW DISORDER, open galley and a midnight show.
Join us for a night at The Adonis.

Multiple Personality is a dance and vocal house music anthem. The music video was filmed in West Hollywood, and features stunning visuals and a whopping 38 different looks.
“I drew inspiration for this song from the fact that think people should aspire to be more open, accepting, and respectful of each other’s differences. No matter how different we may be from one another we all live together in one world in the end,” Leopold.

WORST COOKS IN AMERICA
TALKING TO LEO
Food Network’s Worst Cooks In America is captivating us this season with it’s amazing, unique contestants. To celebrate this season TVGrapevine has a special, exclusive interview with Leo, the handsome Brazilian who makes us smile with his sense of humor, personality and ambition. Below are some of the highlights from our chat.
GETTING ON THE SHOW: Leo’s partner encouraged him to do the show because he knew he wanted to learn how to cook. He says the was the type of person who would always burn things, so he would either have people over to drink or they would bring food over.
BEING ON THE SHOW: Going into the show, Leo was a fan of the chefs, so he says that watching them cook was like watching a maestro in an orchestra or a ballet dancer in their element. He says it was fantastic and a huge highlight of being on the show.
FAVORITE THING TO LEARN: Leo says that one of his favorite things to learn while being on the show was how to properly use salt. He says he usually didn’t use it in the past, but it is something that is so simple and makes food so yummy. He adds that it is something basic that helps everything make sense.
BIGGEST CHALLENGE: When he first came on the show, Leo didn’t know how to deal with fire and knives. He adds that he was also surprised by the added pressure of being on camera and being on a time constraint. However, he said it is something that drove him to do his best.
WHAT HE WANTS TO LEARN HOW TO COOK NEXT: Next on Leo’s cooking bucket list is to learn how to make Brazilian food. He says he finds the culture very interesting and would love to learn more about his background.
PEOPLE WOULD BE SURPRISED TO KNOW: He says that while people see him as someone who is very animated and happy (don’t you just adore his dancing on the show?) he does know when to be serious. He says that the show was a good learning experience and every week, we will see something unpredictable when it comes to him and his personality.
Thank you to Leo and his team for this interview and be sure to keep checking out Worst Cooks In America on Food Network!
