Josephine Baker: How The First Global Pop Star Broke The Rules
One hundred years ago, Josephine Baker left America and changed the world. Before Beyoncé filled stadiums, before Rihanna built a billion-dollar brand, and before Tina Turner took control of her story, there was Josephine Baker. In the fall of 1925, she got on a ship and never looked back. She wasn't just a performer. She was the first Black woman to become a global pop star. She built an empire with her face, her body, her voice, and her refusal to play by America's rules. Singer and dancer Josephine Baker (1906 - 1975), sitting on a tiger rug, circa 1925. (Photo by ... More) This story is part of my Substack, Vanilla is Black, where I explore how Black genius shaped global culture. Think about what it means to be a global superstar today. You need multiple revenue streams: music, film, fashion, endorsements, and a carefully curated image. Josephine Baker mastered that nearly a century ago. And here's the thing about Baker that resonates today, she did it all in opposition to life in America. There is a defiance in Josephine Baker that stands apart from, say, Louis Armstrong, whom I love. Unlike Armstrong, whose brilliance often worked within American constraints, Baker refused to play by their rules. Josephine Baker captivates because, at all times, she appears to be in control. Nothing about her was an accident. Baker was operating on an entirely different level of strategy. Baker's career was built on more than talent. It was strategy, timing, and selling to the public what they wanted before they realized they wanted it. She used her sexuality as a tool for progression, not oppression. 'I wasn't really naked. I simply didn't have any clothes on.' Escape to Fame Josephine Baker was born Freda Josephine McDonald in 1906. She grew up poor in St. Louis. By 13, Baker was married and making a living as a waitress and street performer. The seminal moment of her early life was witnessing the East St. Louis Race Riot of 1917. White mobs murdered dozens of Black folks. Rioters burned down Black homes and businesses. American entertainer Josephine Baker (1906 - 1975), in costume for her famous 'banana dance', circa ... More 1925. Baker was an overnight sensation when she arrived in Paris in the mid-1920s. (Photo) This first-hand experience of racial violence and survival shaped Baker's worldview. The trauma of witnessing such destruction informed her later activism, her insistence on performing for integrated audiences, and her rejection of American racial constraints. Josephine Baker left St. Louis as a performer after a second brief marriage (at 15), with the name she would make famous. She arrived in Harlem at the peak of the Renaissance and landed a spot in Shuffle Along, one of the first all-Black Broadway hits. She was hired to work backstage but eventually moved herself in front of the audience. The embodiment of 'make a way out of no way' Baker's comic timing and dancing stole the show. She stole another show as a part of Chocolate Dandies (saints preserve us). But despite her rising stardom, Broadway wasn't ready for a Black woman to be anything more than a chorus girl. Then Paris called. Baker left America at a time of great change. Baker's performance at the Folies Bergère changed everything. She danced in a skirt made of 16 (rubber) bananas. That image of Baker became THE image of the Jazz Age. She turned herself into a brand before that was a thing. Her multilingual recordings were wildly popular. She starred in movies and toured Europe. Beyond music, Baker helped shape global Black beauty standards. Her bold use of exoticism played into Western fantasies, but she used it to control her own image. She set beauty and fashion trends, from her iconic slicked-back hair to the dramatic costumes that influenced couture designers. It looked very different from the Statue of Liberty, but what did that matter? What was the good of having the statue without the liberty, the freedom to go where one chose if one was held back by one's color? No, I preferred the Eiffel Tower, which made no promises. The key to Baker's decades-long success wasn't simply her talent or looks. The constant in her career was adaptability and reinvention. Madonna did it. Lady Gaga did it. Beyoncé does it with every album cycle. Josephine Baker did it first. Continued Resistance Baker's most daring transformation came during World War II. When the Nazis invaded her beloved Paris, what did she do? Baker became a spy for the French Resistance. She used her fame as her cover. She gathered intelligence at parties and performances, using being underestimated as her greatest weapon. One of Baker's boldest espionage moves was smuggling military secrets on sheet music using invisible ink. At one diplomatic event, she charmed Nazi officials while covertly delivering intelligence to the Allies. When the war ended, Baker was awarded two of France's biggest honors, the Croix de Guerre and the Legion of Honor. Josephine Baker (1906-1975), 20th century, France, New York, Schomburg Center. (Photo by ... More Photo12/UIG/Getty Images) By the 1950s, Baker was an institution in France. But in America? Not so much. She had never forgotten the racism she faced in St. Louis and New York. When she returned to the U.S. she refused to perform for segregated audiences. If you wanted Josephine, you had to integrate your club or venue to book her. The FBI, under J Edgar Hoover, labeled Baker a Communist sympathizer, and her visa to the U.S. was revoked. The woman who exported jazz and American culture was blacklisted in her home. Despite this, she continued to fight. She publicly condemned American racism consistently abroad. She leveraged her international celebrity to call out injustice. Her battle with the U.S. government exposed the hypocrisy of a nation that celebrated her talent but rejected her humanity. 'I have walked into the palaces of kings and queens and into the houses of presidents. But I could not walk into a hotel in America and get a cup of coffee.' —JoseBaker was long a supporter of civil rights in America (and Europe). Her icon status by 1963, made her invitation to speak at the March on Washington, inevitable. She was the only woman to take the stage alongside Martin Luther King Jr. Read that again. Wearing her Free French military uniform and war medals, she stood in front of 250,000 people and called out the hypocrisy of America: American-born French singer, dancer, and actress Josephine Baker (1906 - 1975) speaks from a podium ...

Carter/Getty Images) Long before celebrities like Angelina Jolie and Madonna made international adoption a trend, Baker adopted twelve children from different racial backgrounds, calling them the Rainbow Tribe. She wanted to create a real-life model of racial harmony. The Rainbow Tribe was ambitious, idealistic, loving, a bit half-baked, and far ahead of its time. If you follow the money, Baker's impact is obvious. Every Black woman who has commanded the global stage—Dorothy Dandridge, Diahann Carroll, Tina Turner, Beyoncé—owes something to the path she carved. She was involved in every aspect of her career. She was the choreographer, stylist, makeup artist, wigmaker, and driver of her career. She was the first Black woman to headline films, break box office records, shape global fashion trends, and sell out international tours. She was a master of reinvention before reinvention was a survival tool in pop culture. Singer Josephine Baker with her husband and adopted children, 1959. (Photo by © Hulton-Deutsch ... More Collection/CORBIS/Corbis via Getty Images) France recognizes Josephine Baker in ways America didn't and still hasn't. When she died in 1975, Baker became the first Black woman in French history to receive a state funeral. In 2021, she became the first Black woman inducted into France's Panthéon, one of the nation's highest honors. No part of modern pop stardom is free from her fingerprints. Beyoncé has honored her in performances. Rihanna's business empire follows the same blueprint Baker pioneered, using stardom to control an entire industry. Even Lady Gaga's reinvention tactics mirror Baker's adaptability. She wasn't just the first Black pop star. She was the prototype for the modern celebrity itself. As my dad used to say, the first person who discovered the wheel was a genius. The second person was just a copycat. Josephine Baker created a pathway to stardom for everyone. Baker didn't just exist in history. She built it. By making a way out of no way, every Black woman who came after her could walk through doors that, once upon a time, didn't even exist. If we look hard at her life and our times, I think we'll realize she's still leading us.

New Hinge report shows how Gen Z is leading a queer romance revolution
Labels can help shape our view of ourselves in a world that tries to fit us into categories and boxes. At the same time, labels have the potential to limit our capacity for growth and understanding, especially in the dating world. So what happens when labels start to feel old and outgrown? That's the delicious dilemma at the center of Hinge's third annual LGBTQ+ D.A.T.E. Report — D.A.T.E. stands for Data, Advice, Trends, and Expertise. I sat down with Moe Ari Brown, Hinge's resident "love whisperer" (a marriage and family therapist by trade), to unpack the data trends and forecast the next great romance revolution. Label fatigue is a moment when once-empowering tags feel tight at the seams. 'People are wanting to shift an identity label or date someone outside their typical type, and they're feeling pressure to confirm,' Brown explains, noting that fear of side-eye often keeps folks frozen in the wrong lane. In other words, love is calling, but the label printer is jammed. Queer daters have always had to learn on the fly: Our stories rarely make it into mainstream relationship science. That's why Hinge celebrates its third annual report. 'LGBTQIA+ people have not always been centered in conversations around love,' Brown reminds. By quantifying our quirks, triumphs, and heartbreaks, the app hopes to turn anecdotes into actionable advice. If millennials cracked the closet door, Gen Z kicked it open and redecorated. According to the report, queer Gen Z daters are 21 percent more likely than millennials to date across gender expressions and 39 percent more likely to reconsider their sexuality label after an unexpected spark. Translation: They're remixing identity and attraction like a DJ, and culture is finally catching the beat. Brown credits a fluid zeitgeist and the visibility apps provide: 'They see each other daters living authentically, living openly,' he smiles. For this generation, another person's pronouns are an invitation, not a riddle. So, how do you claim your truth without limiting yourself? Brown's therapist-approved mantra is radical authenticity: Being yourself 'regardless of who's watching, even if there's a threat to belonging.' He urges daters to 'turn the light all the way up' because signaling your attraction (and quirks!) is how your people find you. Practical tweaks? Swap the laundry list of 'Must love dogs, brunch, and obscure 90s references' for prompts that showcase vibe over vital stats. On first dates, lean into humor and play; shared laughs soften the armor we wear when venturing beyond a 'type.' Nearly four in 10 Gen Z queer daters have reconsidered their label after an unexpected spark. Brown's gentle reframe: 'Who you like is not who you are.' Identity may anchor you, but relationships are surfboards riding shifting waves. His advice for handling nosy friends and family? Share only when you're ready to inform, not ask permission. Your love life isn't a group-project Google Doc. Hinge's expanding gender and orientation menus, along with its new Match Notes feature, aim to keep marginalized users from 'getting yanked out' of their romantic reverie. Brown remembers the first time someone's Match Note greeted him with his correct pronouns and a dash of swagger. 'It was a moment of recognition,' he sighs, still smitten. Digital tools that bake respect into the user experience means less emotional labor and more flirtatious banter. Looking ahead, Brown craves features that foster vulnerability past day three: 'We know what we want. Now, how do we cultivate it? How do we delete this app?' he laughs. Forget grand gestures; Brown says intimacy blooms in the details: Eye contact. In a world of sideways glances at selfie cameras, a sustained gaze feels downright electric. 'Eyes are the window to the soul' may be cliché, but evolutionary psychology agrees. Open body language & genuine smiles. Our nervous systems are co-regular, and a relaxed posture with real laughter signals safety before the first sip of Pinot. Active listening. Reflect, empathize, and resist the urge to pivot back to yourself too soon. Emotional ping-pong beats 20-question lightning rounds any day. Another great tip? Avoid the token trap. When someone reaches beyond their usual gender attraction, the line between curiosity and collection can blur. Red flag number one: a laser focus on one identity facet. The antidote? Treat dates as whole humans: Chicago upbringing, plant-dad energy, and all. If someone reduces you to a bullet point, cherish the block button as quickly as you would buy a new Telfar bag during a flash sale. Brown's dream for the fourth annual report is a deep dive into the 'vulnerability paradox' and how we crave being known but fear being seen. Understanding those roadblocks could finally shepherd more daters from 'Just matched!' to 'We deleted the app for good.' In the meantime, he champions community-led research, more safety tools, and tech that prioritizes joy over just-in-case disclaimers. After an hour of laughter, therapy nuggets, and mutual fangirling over Match Notes, one truth remains: love, especially queer love, thrives in radical authenticity. Whether you're a Gen Z free-spirit replacing 'she/they' with 'they/them' or a millennial who is masc Tuesdays and femme Fridays, the D.A.T.E. Report says the heart wants what it wants. And, hopefully, the app algorithms are finally catching up. So the next time you feel that familiar itch to edit your bio or your life, remember Brown's mic-drop wisdom: Turn your light all the way up. The right eyes will meet yours, the right laughter will echo back, and the right label will feel less like a straitjacket and more like your favorite vintage tee: soft, lived-in, and unmistakably you.
