Australian Jewish pop singer and actor Troye Sivan recently released his own new luxury lifestyle brand that is an ode to his Jewish ancestry and derives its name from a Yiddish phrase.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Australia-based company that Sivan, 28, independently started with his brother is called Tsu Lange Yor and it \u201cmeans \u2018to long years\u2019 in Yiddish, which is the language that my great-grandmother spoke,\u201d he explained in an Instagram video<\/a>. \u201cIt\u2019s all about taking a second to treat yourself, slow down, and be present in your space that you love.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Tsu Lange Yor includes all Australian-made products like candles, fragrances, and some home decor pieces, such as a limited edition dreidel and base signed by Sivan. The Melbourne-based actor, who stars in the drama series The Idol <\/em>on HBO Max, told the American fashion magazine W<\/em> in a new interview<\/a> that he really wanted to add elements from his Jewish heritage into the collection, saying, \u201cI\u2019m not particularly religious; I kind of tapped out after my bar mitzvah. But culturally, it\u2019s a huge part of who I am.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cA lot of the culturally Jewish stuff I do reminds me of my family; my great-grandmother spoke Yiddish in the house when I was young,\u201d Sivan explained. \u201cAnd I\u2019ve always said, I don\u2019t care if we don\u2019t say the prayer necessarily, but doing Shabbat dinner is important to me. I did it every single Friday night growing up. That\u2019s the kind of stuff that makes up my fondest childhood memories.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

The Rush<\/em> singer went on to say that, despite struggling at times with his identity, he\u2019s a proud Jew.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cAnd considering I\u2019m not very religious and I\u2019m queer, my Jewish identity was something I grappled with and was unsure about,\u201d he added. \u201cI liked the idea of reclaiming it and proudly saying, even to other Jewish people, \u2018I\u2019m queer and I\u2019m also a Jew \u2014 and these are things that are both equally important in the makeup of who I am.’\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Sivan\u2019s grandmother fled antisemitism in Eastern Europe. The singer was born in Johannesburg, South Africa, but his family moved to Australia when he was two years old. Some of his first public performances included singing at Yom Kippur services, according to Daze<\/em> magazine.<\/span><\/p>\n

Sivan \u2014 who played a young Wolverine in the 2009 film X-Men Origins: Wolverine \u2014 <\/em>told W<\/em> magazine he had a \u201clit\u201d bar mitzvah party in the garage of his family home and also showed off some of his Yiddish skills, saying some of his favorite words in the language include such as schlep<\/em>, schmuck<\/em>, nebbish<\/em>, and davka<\/em>.<\/span><\/p>\n

He added that while Tsu Lange Yor features a dreidel in its first launch, he\u2019s unsure if he will design other Judaica pieces.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cIt was important to have an object off the bat that felt a little bit eccentric and indulgent and also spoke to the brand\u2019s Jewish identity and my Jewish identity. But I don\u2019t know that it\u2019s necessarily going to be an ongoing theme,\u201d he said. \u201cI mean, if Jewish people all around the world are like, \u2018Troye, make a mezuzah case,\u2019 maybe I will.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n
