Nation.VI: danse royale

The one-year wait for Nation.VI is finally over, though waiting for the next might sadly be forever.

Nation.VI's main party Danse Royale, a Gold extravaganza, saw partygoers dressed in the best of their bling-bling togs. But by far, the most awe-inspiring and on-theme outfit has to be this one. This Thai boy, coated with gold leaf all over, almost seems to emanate golden rays. He certainly attracted a lot of attention by challenging our limits of bling. However, the sight also triggered a certain kleptomaniac impulse in me — I stole a single gold leaf to keep in my work pass as a souvenir!
A gay dance party can't be truly great without these flagger boys from the US. They were summoned back this year by popular demand, and once again, made an impressive appearance with their skilful techniques and graceful flags. From shimmering gold, fiery red to phosphorescent light, these boys won a rousing, deafening applause. In case you don't already know, both of the flagger boys Xavier and Philip have Fridae profiles (xaviersf and FlaggerBoy). So don't forget to send them a heart!
Every year, the signature highlight of Nation parties must be the laser show. And this year was no exception. Beams of mesmerising and multi-coloured laser hit the smoky ballroom, creating emerald light tunnels, which took party queens to a natural esctacy. Using the flagger boys' flags as a dynamic screen, the laser carved the words "Nation.VI" in everyone's sight and mind, reminding us what a great time we were having.
They are here, they are queer — and thankfully, queerer this year! Everyone in the house held their breath as these Japanese boys from Ageha, Tokyo's biggest gay disco, performed a tantalising striptease. Their sweaty, hot bodies wooed the eye and keen attention of every single party goer. I was no exception, especially since their round and muscular butts were RIGHT IN MY FACE. Remember Tsuyoshi? The handsome Japanese go-go boy with his signature hairy chest who shampooed himself in the rain at a pool party last year? He returns this year with five other equally hot Japanese boys to perform two mouth-watering acts. Certainly, there are photos too juicy for publication and will be kept for personal use!
