In August 2020, Mr. Warburton's interview with cover star Anne Heche gained widespread media attention for her comments on LGBTQ representation in Hollywood and her past relationship with Ellen DeGeneres, after The Ellen DeGeneres Show's staff made allegations of a toxic work environment.[56][57][58] Mr. Warburton Magazine got a lot of press in 2021 when various media outlets shared cover shoots with Taryn Manning,[59][60] Daniel Gillies.,[61][62][63] and Tara Reid.[64]

In November 2021, Mr Warburton media added Gurus magazine to its roster of properties. With a philosophy made up of 3 words, truth, passion & authenticity the words are each written and hidden on every cover. Warburton is quoted in saying, " i wanted to create a magazine that was built on wellness and experts that make the world a better place." Notables that have been on the cover include Emmy award-winning actress Anne Heche, actor, director Peter Facinelli, fashion designer Nicole Miller, and the author/TV producer Candace Bushnell.[65][66][67][68]

Following the success of Gurus Magazine, Warburton released Los Angeles Inquisitor as a tribute to his dear friend and Emmy Award winner Anne Heche. Heche's cover story on Los Angeles Inquisitor that talked about her memoir, Call Me Anne, was instantly picked up by platforms such as E! News, ET Online, People Magazine, and OK! Magazine. Heche has been a huge influence and inspiration to Warburton and reflects the magazine's motto, "people, places, and all things LA." Los Angeles Inquisitor also did a feature story on Selling Sunset's Amanza Smith, which made waves upon its release.[69][70][71][72][73]

During Pride 2024, Warburton & Gurus Magazine created the #30Voices30days initiative & partnered with the GLAAD organization.

(She had lost her life to AIDS related complications in 2016 after being diagnosed in 1987).[80][81]

"I live my life in the light and through a higher consciousness. I strive to be ageless and fresh. I am not controlled by gender nor afraid to live my authentic self, whether masculine or feminine. I merge moments of being timeless with elevated moments of self-expression."

Derek Warburton, as quoted in GQ South Africa

Brand Collaborations

edit

In 2022, Derek collaborated with the skincare and make-up company FACE Stockholm to create the Derek Fabulous Collection in celebration of Pride Month. The Launch of the Derek Fabulous Collection was graced by celebrities like Tara Reid, Taryn Manning, Cynthia Bailey, and Princess Martha Louise of Norway.

Philanthropy and activism

edit

Having experienced homelessness as a teenager, Warburton supports a number of charitable organizations assisting homeless and impoverished people.[100] In 2009, The New York Times profiled Warburton and his volunteer work with Bottomless Closet, an organization that provides professional clothing, job readiness, and post-employment training and coaching services to women on assistance and working poor women.[101] Warburton gives style makeovers to women who are re-entering the workforce. Warburton said,

"I started working and creating programs for Bottomless Closet, a nonprofit in NYC where we started "How To Be Derek Fabulous", a workshop to raise the self-esteem of women who were surviving abuse, poverty, and homelessness. Three months after our community program began, I received a phone call that changed everything. Ruth La Ferla, one of the most celebrated writers from The New York Times, wrote a story for the Style section about our program. That changed our work forever."[102]

In May 2010, Warburton hosted a benefit for Housing Works, an organization that provides assistance to homeless AIDS patients. During the Fall/Winter 2011 New York Fashion Week, Warburton hosted a campaign for the nonprofit, It Gets Better Project, which aims to prevent suicide among LGBTQ youth.[99] Warburton and celebrities including Gabrielle Union, Miguel, Isaac Mizrahi and Amanda Hearst filmed PSAs assuring LGBTQ youth that their lives would improve.[99][103][104][105][106]

He produced the Real Fashion, Real Women runway show benefiting Bottomless Closet that closed the Fall/Winter 2011 New York Fashion Week and cast 24 women from the organization as models.[107] For the Fall/Winter 2012 New York Fashion Week, Warburton reprised his role as producer for the Real Fashion, Real Women runway show.[108] That year, he cast models for the show which included 21 women from Bottomless Closet and five celebrities with reality stars Aviva Drescher and Kate Gosselin among them. Gosselin's participation garnered substantial backlash on social media.[108][109]
