Guest: Ricky “Kashmere” Allure — Iconic vogue-fem legend, former House of Allure stalwart

Get ready. In this episode, vogue-fem icon Ricky “Kashmere” Allure sits down for a rare, no-holds-barred conversationabout the shocking decision to leave the House of Allure after 22 years. What happens when loyalty, legacy, and heartbreak collide? We unpack it all.

The real story behind his departure — the pain, betrayal, and wild emotions that had the ballroom world talking.

A raw recount of the viral live that sent shockwaves through the community and ignited conversations about loyalty, leadership, and chosen family.

Reflections on two decades of shaping generations of vogue-fem performers, mentoring and inspiring young talent, and building a house that felt like home.

The complicated truth of house culture: what it means to invest your life in a “family,” when it’s built on love, performance, and community — and what it does when that house no longer holds you.

We also dive into what “walking away” means — and what comes next. What exactly is “The Agency”? What legacy is Kashmere building now, and how will his departure shape the next chapter of his influence on ballroom culture and vogue-fem? Listeners will get firsthand what the future may hold.

This isn’t just ballroom gossip — this is a historic reckoning. A chance to understand the emotional labor, the sacrifices, and the contradictions inherent in building something beautiful that eventually breaks you. Whether you know ballroom inside out — or are hearing about it for the first time — this episode will challenge, inspire, and move you.

In this explosive episode of FQ Crazy, Sexy & Cool, Ballroom icon Eyricka Lanvin holds NOTHING back. From the truth behind her rise on Legendary to the real story of #JusticeForEyricka and her time behind bars, she’s reclaiming her narrative and spilling the tea they didn’t want you to hear. We dig into the inner workings of ballroom categories, survival in spaces stacked against you, and how self-power looks when you’re both seen and underestimated. Raw. Real. Revolutionary.

Eyricka Lanvin is a longstanding legend in the Ballroom scene — recognized as an “Icon” and Mother of the House of Xclusive Lanvin. Her journey includes groundbreaking walks in Femme Queen Face and Realness categories, leadership roles in one of the community’s most respected houses, and a notable presence on the competition series Legendary.
Her struggle and survival also became viral under the movement #JusticeForEyricka: she endured incarceration in a male-dominated facility and experienced abuse simply for existing authentically as a trans woman.

Now, she stands as a voice of resilience and transformation — offering a look behind the scenes of ballroom politics, fame, incarceration, and reclamation.

The full story behind her appearance on HBO’s Legendary — what they didn't show, how she led her house, and how she walked away.

Her account of incarceration: the system that failed her, the community that saved her, and the fight she still carries.

Deep conversation about ballroom categories: what they mean, how they sustain culture, and how the politics of show vs. substance play out under award lights.

Reflections on identity, transformation, and what it takes to thrive when history wants to put you in a box or erase you entirely.

Wisdom for the listeners: whether you’re in ballroom, creative, LGBTQ+, survivor, or simply seeking power through truth.

Fem Queen Crazy Sexy Cool – Hosted by Asia, Tabytha & Tempress

In this powerful and vulnerable episode, Asia, Tabytha, and Tempress sit down with Peppermint and Marti for a layered discussion on transformation, courage, and the journey to self-understanding.

Peppermint opens up about her path toward self-acceptance — revealing that, for years, she hesitated to transition out of fear of embarrassing her family. She shares how that experience shaped her understanding of love, womanhood, and the courage it takes to be seen.

Marti speaks candidly about living with anxiety, how it affects his work and relationships, and the practices he uses to keep moving forward — from creativity to community care.

Together, they unpack the intersections of queerness, artistry, and personal growth, reminding listeners that strength doesn’t mean perfection — it means persistence.
