Typically, what we’ve seen in our historied pre-gaming sessions is a frenzy of stylists putting together umpteen looks, hairstylists flailing hot tools, and makeup artists going at the talent’s face from every possible angle. But this could not have been more opposite from the atmosphere at R&B duo THEY.’s suite ahead of last weekend’s Life Is Beautiful festival in Las Vegas. The duo, comprised of Drew Love and Dante Jones, got ready in separate rooms of the hotel and were the most chill ever.
We first hung out with Dante, who, after picking out his outfit (a casual hoodie and jeans), turned on a quick wrestling video—apparently this step is always part of his pre-show ritual—and followed it with some meditation. On the other side of the hall, in Drew’s room, we found him hanging out, lollipop in mouth. Turns out he isn’t one for a routine; getting ready involves throwing on an outfit, adding some accessories, and calling it a day.
