A year ago today we released a sign language version of @arianagrande’s 7 RINGS video! I had so much fun transforming into her!
How did the ASL video happen? Accessibility happened. (and of course @jakewil who directed the video)
I tweeted Ariana to see if she could caption her music video because 466 million people with hearing loss would love to watch.
She responded that she loved the idea.
A few weeks later, Ariana released 7 RINGS music video with lyrics available to read onscreen!
Then I was able to translate her lyrics into sign language.

I do not typically do this but I wanted to share something…
I’ve been really sick and I am now on the mend. It is very possible I contracted coronavirus and I have access to get tested but I do not want to. The reason is because there is a shortage of covid-19 test kits in the U.S. and the sick patients need it more than I do.
For 48 hours starting Sunday night, I had a fever, body chills, a sore throat and a mild cough. All these are symptomatic of COVID-19. Some with COVID-19 have reported not being able to taste or smell. That was my experience too.
I knew I wasn’t a high risk so I stayed calm. I communicated with my doctor and self-quarantined. I kept an eye out for any respiratory issues because if it worsened, it could be deadly.
But I recovered…. And I still am self-isolating.
I’d like to stress that testing is important. Widespread testing has been a key part for some countries like South Korea’s efforts in handling Covid-19. In a perfect world, I’d take the test. Unfortunately the U.S. lacks enough test kits. If you are healthy and have no respiratory issues, I encourage you to be mindful of sick patients that need to get tested more than you do.
And stay at home to avoid spreading and help flattening the curve.
We’re in this together. Let look out for each other!!
A Quiet Place Part II World Premiere with the amazing, phenomenal, and talented @milliesimm!
Millie, I am so proud of you. Your performance brought me to tears — and my eyes are watering up as I write this.
It is not often, actually it’s never happened until you, that we see a Deaf lead on the big screen being an absolute bad-ass and… I wish I could say more but no spoilers here, and there better be Oscar consideration for you, Millie.
Keep making noise, Millie (pun intended). I can’t wait to see what you’ll tackle next!

ABSOLUTELY LOVE seeing Deafies with natural-born talent emerging and making noises on social media! Don’t sleep on J-Tay (@_jtay_)!!!! I’m mesmerized by her sign language and how she eloquently flows our language… on beat!! You can literally SEE the music through her hands. Incredible. She hit a million views with this #CrushOnYou ASL version on TikTok/Twitter… AND NOW let’s help our girl J-tay and get @lilkimthequeenbee to recognize her.
Share and tag the Lil’ Kim!! –
DEAF POWER!!! \0>
