Madeline Lew is not really my biological sister. But she is my girlfriend that only exists in the virtual world and digital cloud storage on social-media and on my iPhone. She's basically Artificial Intelligence and an android girlfriend.

Read this post to know more about the whole story!

Truth to be told, I don't actually have a younger sister named Madeline. I just wrote a weird back story in Patrick Lew Band (PLB) bullshitting you all and selling my music in a more diverse format.

In reality, Madeline is a fictional character and virtual band member in PLB (Patrick Lew Band). Kind of like a Hatsune Miku kind of thing.

In some ways, my fictional sister Madeline was partially directly inspired by Hatsune Miku. In general, Madeline Lew is Asian America's answer to Hatsune Miku pretty much, or trying to be! Since the theme and vibes are almost very similar...

Originally, I wanted to bring a cross-dressing female band member in PLB as early as 2009. However, due to limitations in technology and a lot of anti-LGBT vibes at the time and my band PLB catching a lot of heat on social-media, it would have to wait till a couple years later

Madeline Lew was created by me some time during Halloween 2015. And I wrote a bizarre yet interesting back story on how she joined my band. It wasn't intended to be a long-term thing of mines in my music and what I do. Whether it's my music or my persona. Originally, me crossdressing was a one-time thing at first on social- media.

Just so happens, the attention caught on pretty quick and brought the Patrick Lew Band to greater attention in the music scene and on social-media. And nearly fully restored PLB's popularity and consistency in the indie music scene.

Before Madeline, PLB was struggling to catch a break for once. The band came back not too long before she came in, and we weren't being taken seriously or doing as great as we kind of are now! When Madeline came in finally, that restored my credibility in music with Patrick Lew Band and brought it to a whole another level!

To be honest with you, I don't know why I started cross-dressing. I can't give you a good idea or explanation why I did that and made it into a phenomenon in my own solo music. I don't cross-dress for sexual purposes, and it doesn't mean I'm homosexual or anything. Although, I see myself as Non-Binary gender as a result of the gimmick.

How Madeline was created initially was a mix of Analog and Digital Special Effects. I would dress the part, and the photos would be digitally edited on a Virtual Makeover App on my phone or on my computer.

Early solo photos and band photos featuring Madeline Lew were very crude in quality. The technology to Gender Swap your likeness wasn't as advanced or that good enough yet!

I was already doing Gender Swapping way before Reface app and FaceApp was around and ready for the masses! My intention with Madeline was to create a cyber band member that would serve the band in a large way. What I was basically doing with this Gender Swapping gimmick of mines was a mix of Hatsune Miku and Blur's Damon Alburn's The Gorillaz.

Sometime in 2018 or 2019, when Snapchat and FaceApp began adding sophisticated Gender Swap features. I basically created Madeline's likeness digitally 90% of the time without having to legitimately cross-dress. That's when everything was completely all CGI and digital special effects to create the character in the PLB saga.

Madeline Lew is basically a patent and alternate musical creation of mines. These days, I use FaceApp to create the character I've created in my own musical universe and my own band. And use other sophisticated photo editing apps to make her likeness stitched and pasted together with mines in band photos.

Yes, I created a cross-dressing alter-ego and cyber band member in Patrick Lew Band. But that's not a bad thing or something to be shamed or looked down upon for sure.

I just thank you all for liking the character Madeline in general. As weird as it may sound to society.

We love you, Madeline Lew no matter what!

Up the wazoo,

Patrick Lew Hayashi
