Paris Dupree's Paris Is Burning Ball 1991

[MsTinklepiss]

Is Alyssa that same little boy in "Paris is burning"? Because there has been talk that she was the 15 year old kid with his friend standing outside a club (at two in the morning) in the film? There's a lot of mystery surrounding some of the lesser known people from the film, so if anyone has any knowledge please let me know!

voguing like a lady.

[marcusetid]

We just learned that the Pioneer and Icon herself passed a few months ago.. Paris Dupree was a wonderful lady; I had the opportunity to be in her presence Labor Day Weekend in Atlanta a few years ago -- will never forget the performance she gave. .. Thank you mother for showing us it was NEVER wrong to be yourself... TO BE REAL..OH WHAT A WONDERFUL FEELING!

[PatricioElMalo]

Damn they turned itt!

[RetrOKiiD22]

Alyssa looked sooo banjii back then.! She bettah WORK.!!

[ReddzVoice]

I cherish this video. Two of my performance idols are in this video: ALYSSA ST. CLAIRE [ST. CLAIRE at that time; she's a LAPERLA now] and the late JESSICA EBONY APHRODITE [in the yellow shirt and denim jumper]. I can't stop watching this.

Peace and love...

[ReddzVoice]

@ReddzVoice: Much love and a special shout out to LATISHA REVLON and BELINDA DUPREE as well!

Peace and love...

[dramavogue]

@ReddzVoice what does alyssa have on in this clip?

[ReddzVoice]

@dramavogue ALYSSA has on a white jumper, with a white "scrunchie" in her hair, red sneakers, and gold door knocker earrings. She is on the far left in this clip. She actually walks off the runway at the end.

Peace and love...

[rreettyyuull]

[jahlaune]

Voguing has come a lonnnnggg way wow Is the house of Dupree still around?

[DarlingSunshowers]

@jahlaune Yeah. It's not as powerful as it used to be though. Immortal Mother Paris Dupree held the 30th Anniversary Paris Is Burning ball last month.

[RetrOKiiD22]

Paris stayed yelling at his balls.! lols.! we love you icon.!

[xanyxxxx]

the voguing I see in clubs now is more athletic.. I like the slower pace and more elegant vogue here

[CelsoCelso88]

@xanyxxxx ....Yep, that how is used to be....Fem Queen Performance in the early 90's, serving * femininity*.....

[vamploboluv17]

LOL ACTUALLY that is not the time i am thinking of! The time I was thinking of was in the 80s and in the Elks Lounge. In 91 Sandy was in Jail, and Dani was a Revlon which at the time was new but the house of princess was dead and I think she out grew pendavis. THAT I REMEMBER.Now I see Belinda and I think the blonde with the bad roots is bianca (never in the years that I have know Bianca has she ever had her hair professionally colored.) sorry about the confusion

[justwatchingliffe]

Wow this was so many years ago I was actually at that ball and personal friends with all of them. Sandy ad I lived together at one time. Danelle who i dont see was, but was there went to performing arts high with me and well bianca extravaganza and I were brief friends. Ah I was just a baby then now I have a baby. Life is funny, if it anyone is interested not too long after this video ends Bianca and Danelle have a fight that gets somewhat ugly.

[ShangoJamal]

I know that practically ALL of the stars of "Paris Is Burning" are now dead.

Can anyone tell me if Paris Dupree is still alive?

[PrettyRonnie90]

Yes, Paris Dupree is still alive and well.

[creatvthinkr1]

Yes, she still is...

[jc2007rose]

I see u Ms. Alyssa !!!!!!!!

[niyah2008]

work nicole icon thats my sis

[hotnub2]

no that isnt nichole she wasnt even out than

[Mystique247365]

Sandy "Apollonia" Ninja God Bless Her Soul.(Is not the one in the blazer with the blonde hair). That would be the Legendary/Iconic Belinda Aphrodite Chanel-Dupree. Miss Belinda is so Feminine and Graceful. That is why Paris is screaming Femininity Because of her. I was at that Ball and it was OVAH! for Miss Belinda. And it still is! Listen to the tape clearly you can hear Paris and people in the crowd say her name. I am a "True Fan" of Miss Belinda since 1982 when we first met. It is OVAHHHHHH!

[Glenn1441]

Sandy (Stephen Valdez) was my cousin, and as Sandy Ninja, never had blonde hair. Light brown, yes, but never blonde. But, points to you for picking her out of this video, which is rather dark. Thank you.

[shaquille951]

[cjm38]

[hotnub2]
