Fingers on vote buttons!
Over the past two and a half months, the 2019 Dazed100 has spotlighted the rising talent shaping the future of youth culture. Now, with one week left to go (until July 10), it’s time to make sure your favourite doesn’t slip down the list.
This year, the Dazed100 includes names from over 20 countries, and features three people cast via Instagram – models Aweng and La’Shaunae, and artist Mandy Harris Williams – in honour of the list’s fifth anniversary.
Currently holding the top five places are YouTube star ContraPoints, La’Shaunae, Dazed Beauty entry and digital artist Me Love Me Alot, actor and musician Avan Jogia, and Moscow electronic duo IC3PEAK – though everything is still to play for.
In the months since the Dazed100 launched, the Dazed office has been graced with the presence of model Noah Carlos as she dropped by to talk non-binary representation in fashion. We also went behind the scenes of menswear designer Bianca Saunders’ London Fashion Week Men’s show, got safe sex tips from Sauvage and 120BPM star Félix Maritaud, and headed to New York to discuss the future of fashion with model Aaron Philip.
That’s not all – back in May we chatted to model, artist, and activist Chella Man about his inclusive collection for Opening Ceremony (which featured Dazed100 inception as Aaron Philip starred in the campaign), while just last month we sat down with Philadelphia’s Tierra Whack to discuss her journey from homelessness to rap sensation.
Other names have been busy too, with Liniker, King Princess, Rosalía, Octavian, Nilüfer Yanya, Peach, and Sherelle all making their Glastonbury debut’s last weekend – not to mention a surprise appearance by Lil Nas X – who also came out as gay this week – during Miley Cyrus’ Pyramid Stage performance.
With just one week left to go, it’s time to get your fingers on those metaphorical buzzers. From Swedish teen climate activist Greta Thunberg and abortion rights activist party Room for Rebellion, to porn star Sean Ford, and OTT fashion reporter Miss Jason (of Jason’s Closet), there’s plenty of incredible names that deserve your vote.
