Dj Fat Tony Documentary: He spent more than $1 million on narcotics before getting clean. DJ Fat Tony is still spinning records for the London nightlife. DJ Fat Tony played at Brooklyn Beckham’s 21st birthday party, which was hosted in a large glass marquee at David and Victoria Beckham’s family house in the English countryside. Following that, he performed at London’s renowned Ministry of Sound. He was extraordinary. At that point, the city was placed on lockdown.
DJ Fat Tony, whose real name is Tony Marnach, is frequent on London’s major party scene. With the help of Kate Moss (his friend and occasional DJ partner), he’s supplied music for fashion weeks, royal birthday parties, and many club nights. Despite his night employment, Tony is now happily sober. While he was in detention, he created a YouTube series about addiction recovery, featuring Kelly Osbourne as the first guest star. Boy George and Russell Brand, two of his old pals, are also scheduled to appear on the show in the near future. Tony isn’t shy about discussing his drug use, and he does so in considerable detail. He thinks that he spent over $1,2 million on narcotics while still using drugs.
Tony describes doing his first line of cocaine with Freddie Mercury and removing many of his teeth with a screwdriver while high in a frantic 18-minute clip created by the British music magazine Mixmag. Despite the fact that it is not an easy film to see, it serves as a powerful reminder that people can recover from their darkest moments. Tony told CNN that his recovery has given him a “whole new universe,” one in which he can go out of his house with his head held high instead of being “locked in a room wanting to kill me.” Tony and his long-term partner, as well as their dog, live in Pimlico, London.
What will we do to commemorate end of pandemic?
Tony’s Instagram presence is what attracts a younger following, despite the fact that he is an ’80s club kid. It’s not for the faint of heart, but it’s one of the most popular Twitter usernames in the world. Only a few jokes are off-limits, including narcotics jokes, which may come as a surprise to some. “I’m just posting stuff I understand or have done myself,” he says. Even though I claim to be in recovery, my friends and family frequently point out that I post drug memes and the like. “Yeah, but I’ve experienced it,” I remark in response. I’m free to post whatever I want now that I’ve made it this far.”
In 2019, DJ Fat Tony and Kate Moss were pictured together at a London party. Tony is throwing a virtual party as part of London’s first digital fashion week. This three-day event was used to replace Men’s Fashion Week while it was in its glory. Starting on Friday, the designer exhibits’ gender-neutral program will comprise a series of internet talks, podcasts, and fashion films (but no live-streamed shows). This normally closed-door and private event will be broadcast live online for the first time. Tony is excited about the prospect of this opportunity benefiting London’s newest and brightest designers. “They’re giving all of the young designers a voice,” he said.
“It’s terrific that everyone, not just buyers and editors, will be able to attend.” That has never been Fashion Week’s main focus. Front-row seats for the event are no longer considered a badge of honor.” The Pride events in New York City this month will be different from those during fashion week. “Pride in London is a significant thing,” Tony continued unless we’re dealing with a global pandemic. He then proceeded to list a week’s worth of events that he planned to attend.
Luke Evans, Kylie Minogue, DJ Fat Tony, Jodie Harsh, Kelly Osbourne, and Jimmy Q attended a preview party for the Royal Academy of Arts’ Summer Exhibition in London in 2019. “The more open you are about it, the more acceptable it becomes,” he adds of his drug addiction. “I am robbing it of its power by sharing my truth.” “What’s the use of holding on to it if it just stays in here?” he wondered, referring to his chest. Shame, self-harm, and self-hatred.”
Studio 54 was a refuge for the Glamorous and Alluring
“In some respects, this year’s lack of Pride activities is a blessing in disguise. We must put an end to Pride parties and other celebrations for the sake of our own health.” Tony may be able to use “Reclaiming Pride” to bring the event back to its roots and away from commercialization. Lockdown provides a time for individuals in positions of power to reflect. Despite his sobriety, he continues to partake in some of his favorite activities, such as cab rides. “On cabs alone, I was running up a weekly spend of £500 ($634).”
What exactly is going on?
Despite the fact that I reside in the center of London, I would rather take a 40-minute cab ride than walk 10 minutes. “To tell you the truth, it’s insane, but I did it because I could,” he admitted. “Disgusting: For some people, that’s the equivalent of a month’s pay right now.” It took (lockdown) for me to realize what I was doing because I take such things for granted.” Tony, on the other hand, doubts that people will make big changes in their behavior. “I’d like to believe that instead of using plastic, we’ll all start riding our bikes.” Mate, that’s a lot of nonsense.” Tony, on the other hand, has a more positive outlook. He said that hope is a valuable commodity right now. (katieaustin.tv)
The need of focusing on one’s own behavior was emphasized. “It’s about what you do for yourself,” he remarked, hula-hooping. “Rather than worrying about the rest of the world, concentrate on yourself right now.” You’ll naturally gravitate toward doing what’s right for others if you do what’s right for yourself.” DJ Fat Tony will perform a DJ set at 7:40 p.m. local time at London Fashion Week.

Tony’s drug use increases initially
The film follows Fat Tony, dubbed “the most famous DJ you’ve never heard of,” from his beginnings as a doorman at a club called Playground to his performances at the Palladium and Paradise Garage in New York in the 1990s, all while Tony provides his own narration and stories. Tony’s drug use increases initially, but it comes to a halt when he has hallucinations of animals living in his mouth and tears out all of his teeth with pliers (spoiler alert). And it seems to him that now is the moment to face the music.
During the film’s opening credits, Fat Tony refers to himself as “a harvester of filth,” as he wanders through Chinatown, past the “clap clinic,” and quips about his loyalty card. Tony liked to tell stories of delivering Long Island Ice Teas to a 13-year-old Kate Moss and getting busted for doing cocaine in a phone booth when the house music movement was at its peak.
He also discusses his encounters with artists like Prince, Michael Jackson, and Jay-Z, and how he was underwhelmed by each of them. The complete film, which is available on YouTube, depicts the opulence and addiction of the music scene in London and New York. “Babe, you could be going too far,” I couldn’t tell Boy George since we were all going too far, says Boy George in a very sad moment.
