Australian YouTube twink turned indie singer, songwriter, model, actor, and fragrance and homeware brand owner Troye Sivan was spotted at the Art Gallery of NSW on Wednesday night for a Sydney Mardi Gras event.
Sivan attended the “Queer Art After Hours” event, three people in attendance said, with his US singer and songwriter friend Leland, who is DJing at various Poof Doof events across the Mardi Gras weekend.
They were joined by Thomas Hamel (@thomashamel) of Thomas Hamel & Associates – the US-born, Australian-based designer who is now one of the most sought-after interior decorators.
Others in attendance included: Brendan Guy (@mrbrendanguy), a senior associate at the same studio; Adam Khoury (@adamakhoury), who is involved in brand management and consulting in the home, lifestyle and retail space; and Georgie Robertson (@georgie_blaise_); Siew-Chin Foong (@chinniechin1627), and @ocross, all of whose online presence is unclear about where they work.
