Kim Petras (born 27 August 1992) is a German singer/songwriter. The international pop sensation has become one of music’s most buzzed-about talents. A native of Cologne, Germany, she has steadily built a following among the LGBTQ community and beyond with her brand of ’80s-inspired, bubblegum dance pop. Her biggest hits are “I Don’t Want It At All” and “Heart to Break,” which reached the Top 40. At the 2021 MTV Video Music Awards, Kim had a major moment, becoming its first out transgender performer and wowing audiences with the aptly titled anthem, “Future Starts Now.”
History with the Macy's Parade[]
Kim Petras made her first Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade appearance in 2021, as the first-ever transgender pop star to perform for the world-famous event. Petras appeared and performed on the glitzy and glamourous "Rexy in the City" float from Coach, which features the brand’s iconic dinosaur, Rexy, amidst a glittery, carnival-style version of New York.
Petras sang her smash-hit song "I Don't Want It At All" for NBC's broadcast of the Parade, with choreography by New York-based performance group Boss Kids.
Following the Parade, Petras shared photos of her preparing for the event with People magazine.[1]
