Aaron Paul<br />
Talks Performing at the Bruce Lee Tribute,<br />
The Glammy Awards, Isaac Mizrahi,<br />
New Album DANCE, New Book and 2018!<br />
I recently sat with pop<br />
star Aaron Paul as he just<br />
finished performing at<br />
“Tribute to the Dragon,” an<br />
event honoring the legendary<br />
Bruce Lee in NYC. Known as<br />
the lead singer in the Simon<br />
Cowell-discovered boy band<br />
World’s Apart, Aaron Paul is<br />
a staple in the world of pop/<br />
dance music and an iconic<br />
performer in NYC nightlife.<br />
Always a lot of fun to speak<br />
with, Aaron Paul is a mover<br />
and shaker in the world of<br />
pop culture, and we discussed<br />
all the incredible events he<br />
has forthcoming for the end<br />
of the year and into 2018.<br />
What does this honor of the birthday<br />
tribute to superstar icon Bruce Lee<br />
mean to you?<br />
OMG, I’m still gagging over this one! Mr.<br />
Bruce Lee is a worldwide icon, and I’ve<br />
been asked to sing and perform a special<br />
tribute song at at his big birthday event<br />
at the historic NYC Federal Hall. It’s just<br />
crazy to me. They could have just asked<br />
anyone to do this, but they chose me.<br />
Bruce Lee’s legacy is so embedded in the<br />
fabric of popular culture. As a kid, me<br />
and my father and brothers watched his<br />
movies every Sunday for hours. We knew<br />
all the words, characters and Bruce Lee<br />
signature moves and vocal noises, LOL.<br />
And to fast forward, many years later I’m<br />
gonna be singing for him. WOW. I am so<br />
blessed. You’re gonna laugh, but I actually<br />
feel a little emotional that I’m gonna do<br />
this. It’s a real honor. They have asked<br />
me to perform a remake of the 1974<br />
disco classic hit “Kung Fu Fighting” by Carl<br />
Douglas. I’m gonna do a 2018 mix of it<br />
with Peter Tanico/E39 Productions. I can’t<br />
wait. So much fun!
