The Ballroom Scene: One of the US's most underrated, yet highly influential forums.
This blog is a dedication to one of the LGBTQ's most creative and colourful sub-cultures. From Voguing to Sex Siren; from Runway to Realness; from Old School to New School; and from Paris is Burning to How Do I Look, this blog aims to give a broad and detailed outlook on the scene through photos; videos and articles, for those who are in the scene or are fans of the scene.
I do not claim ownership of any of the photos and videos posted, unless stated otherwise. If something here is yours and you want it taken down, do tell me. Many pictures taken from Google Images and Ballroom links.
This isn't about the shade Miss thing. Learn it and learn it well.

Icon Kenny Felder-Ebony. The Founder of LSS (Legends, Statements & Stars).
The 1995 NY Awards Ball. LSS
LSS WAS STARTED BY ONE OF THE ORIGINAL FOUNDERS OF THE ICONIC HOUSE OF EBONY. BALLS BEGAN TO BECOME PACKED EARLY IN THE EVENING WITH ANTICIPATION BUT THE GIVERS OF THE BALLS WERE COMING THRU THE DOORS LATER AND LATER. WITH THE DEMISE OF A DRAG LIP-SYNC PERFORMANCE ALA SWEET PUSSY PAULINE DOING WORK THIS PUSSY AND OTHERS WHO USE TO START A BALL BEFORE THE GRAND MARCH. KENNY CAME UP WITH LEGEND, STATEMENTS AND STARS TO ACKNOWLEDGE PEOPLE WHO HAD PAVED THE WAY OR WERE IN THE PROCESS OF PAVING THE WAY. LEGENDS, STATEMENTS AND STARS OR THE REVERSE IS NOT A CRITERIA FOR BALLROOM STATUS. IT IS TIMEFRAME TO KEEP THE MOMENTUM GOING AT A BALL.
