Before heading to his big event, “Dylan Mulvaney’s Day 365 Live!,” a one-night-only cabaret show at New York City’s iconic Rainbow Room on Monday night, Mulvaney sat down with Drew Barrymore on his show to discuss his journey from daytime. one to day 365 and everything in between.

Mulvaney started her TikTok series on March 12, 2022, with “the first day of being a girl” and has documented every day since then for her over 10 million followers. Now that day 365 is here and she’s gearing up for a big event to celebrate the milestone, she talks about what an eventful year it has been.
“This is very personal for me, in a world where we’re all trying to figure out who we should be, risk, courage,” Barrymore said before Mulvaney jumped in to say, “I didn’t know how vulnerable I was willing to get. And honestly, that day one video i made, it was supposed to be a comedy video because i thought it could be very intense and i wanted to add some humor.

Mulvaney explained that many things come up throughout the year and weaknesses become something he has to deal with. He’s candid about a lot of things that he probably didn’t expect to do as quickly as he has.
“I thought back to my childhood and I thought if I followed myself on TikTok as a little kid, what would I want to hear,” he said.
“A lot of my audience is a younger demographic and I really like to show transness in a way that we haven’t seen before because I thought when I came out that I might have to hide and do all my surgeries in private and change my name, and I instead decided hey, let me see if the world was willing to accept me this way from day one, and they did.”
Dealing with Negativity Entering Chats

Barrymore grew up dealing with negativity and hate. When asked how Mulvaney dealt with it, she said, “There’s so much hate directed at the trans community right now, it’s everywhere, and I think the greatest weapon I can contribute is trans joy, and comedy, and talking about difficult subjects and very complicated moments of transition and trying to let everyone in to see that I’m not a monster, I’m not someone who’s trying to do anything but be myself and be happy.”
Not only did Mulvaney show vulnerability for others to relate to, but so did Barrymore. “It’s interesting because I look at someone like you and I can’t imagine anyone not liking you,” Mulvaney said, to which Barrymore replied, “Oh please. Do you want to know, ironically, who dislikes me the most sometimes? I alone.” Mulvaney agreed that he feels the same way sometimes.

The two hugged, and then sat on the floor together to open up more about the difficult topic. Mulvaney then asked Barrymore what she was doing to combat the hate. Barrymore explains how movie reviews always make him an example. “If you read the reviews, just like on social media, you’re guaranteed 50/50, some like it, some don’t. So you have to be prepared to bear and face it,” he explained.
Mulvaney added, “Sometimes, I think the greatest response can be found in the next happy video or in the next win that you have because it just shows that you keep going and whatever those people show you, that’s ‘ t actually penetrate.”

The celebration is the culmination of a year of exciting moments that can be found on Mulvaney’s TikTok page.
“When I envision today, I see it as the debutante ball coming out, but I also see it as a birthday party, a talk show, a stand-up show,” Mulvaney told PEOPLE. “I put it all together into a one-night-only, 1960s-style multi-style show at the top of Rockefeller Center. And I’m not going to lie, I couldn’t think of anything better to do that day.”
For Mulvaney, who has performed on stage many times in the past, this time on stage marked a first. “This is actually my first time back on stage, but in my correct gender identity,” she said. “Hopefully my followers will be really excited to see me doing what I want to do the most.”
