Hello everyone! We are so happy to premiere this very special episode of āLetās Geek with Yaz & Catā!
Today we have the honor of speaking with Lanny Xtravaganza (Laniel Calderon from the iconic āHouse Xtravaganzaā. House of Xtravaganza was the first Latin/Hispanic House of the Ballroom scene. Today Laniel Xtravaganza will speak to us about his life, how he became part of the ballroom, educate us on the ballroom scene, his house, and educate the future children to pay homage.Ā
We will also speak with Lanny Xtravaganza about what it was like back in NY during the AIDS Pandemic and how it affected the LBGTQ+ & Ballroom. Weāll also learn about the unique House parentsĀ & children who have worked hard to keep the reputation of Xtravaganza strong.
Do you know the Ballroom scene has influenced our style, way of speaking, and music? Itās time we pay homage to the pioneers of the Ballroom scene. Ballroom aināt all about āPose FXā or āLegendary HBOMaxā lol!
