Luciane Buchanan Instagram – Mālo ‘aupito @goldhouseco for my first Gold Gala. 🌟 The imposter syndrome of being an A100 honouree was real, but to be embraced by the AAPI community out here is pretty dang special. Congrats to all the inspiring honourees and @bingchen for a wonderful event🙏🏽 Thank you @peakpasifika for always championing me in every milestone and bridging the gap for Pasifika artists in these spaces, when historically PI was included in the acronym but not in the conversation. Your work doesn’t go unnoticed. I share it all with you fam. 🫶🏽🌊 Finally, my wonderful glam team who managed to pull this killer look together over a txt group chat! DEAD. Only trying on a dress 3hrs before the event after I got on the earliest flight I could from a full week of night shoots 🫠 thank you for taking care of me, giving me a full on Princess diaries makeover making me look less sleep deprived 😘 y’all are all magicians I swear. And finally, to my darling manager (who’s not on insta but I’ll say it anyway) thank you for being the biggest ally for the past 7 years of working together. You’ve pushed down doors to get me here and we still have so much left to do my girl. Thank you for sharing this special night with me. 💕 Off to finish S2… Happy AAPI month. All eyes on Rafah. Love you mum, happy Mother’s Day. You’re my world.
