Show Notes
This week's episode deserves a Michelin Star because, baby, these ladies are COOKING! TS Madison welcomes ballroom ICON, internet sensation, and South Philly’s very own Sexy Lexy, a.k.a. Alexis Sno, for an incredible episode of "Outlaws" that's all about Black queer excellence, survival, and motherhood. In this episode: Lexy and Maddie talk "booster" culture, going viral, and remembering the late Cookie Tookie and their complicated sisterhood. They dive deep into Philly's ballroom scene, where "chosen family" is not just a nice phrase but a stark reality for many, the nuances of gender identity, the "transgender umbrella," what transitioning meant then vs. now, and a hot take on Ms. Caitlyn Jenner. Also: the thrill of "realness" pumps, dating as a trans woman and the life-or-death risks of disclosure and dating safety; Lexy’s role as the Overall Mother of the House of Khan, and why Lexy and Maddie are embracing their gray hair and status as mentors for the next generation. They also discuss visibility as a form of activism, Gay Mamas, ballroom vs. pageant culture, and whether or not Madison has ever tried voguing. Plus: A powerhouse pep talk from Madison to Lexy on branding, manifestation, and affirmations to turn her personal brand into a business empire, and why she should NEVER feel bad about making her money!
