Loyd Allure and his drop-dead gorgeous house brother (will someone sign this brother to Ford ASAP)

Mother Tempress and Father Whitney were local celebrities, looking fab in all-black

The sexy Martin Balenciaga

Little Mikey Khan had me laughing all night with his jokes

While Mother Barbie Mizrahi had me--and the rest of the crowd-- in a trance...

European Runway was one of the show-stopping categories of the night

I could barely shap a shot because of the crowded runway

The "Hershey Kiss" CJ Milan was in the building

The Escadas were in the building

The Allures again, smiling and looking great

Chipper Prodigy was sitting that night, as was little Isaac Icon

Michael Khan and I posing for a quick candid-camera

Prettyboy Realness ruler Rich Prodigy of Virginia

Legendary Models Body, the always "grade-A fab" Trevon Khan

My gay son, little Rob Milan was in the building looking mischievous

D.C. native Derrick Allure in "serious mode". Derrick was one of the hosts of the ball.

My baby Darryl flew in from Chicago to walk the ball (he was a favorite to win his category) and stay with me for the week here in New York. Here he is posing for the camera...

at the ball his runway was on fire as usual--he should have won!

but he was happy just to be in the building looking fine, relaxed, and sexy

after the ball, my house mother, the legendary icon jack mizrahi came and ki-keed for a little bit

Aneesa Blahnik (who won women's face that night) was feeling naughty...

so she & fellow face-diva, the gorgeous Mother Barbie Mizrahi of Virginia decided to pillow fight

Gotta love the luscious ghetto booty pose!

At the hotel afterwords, the Khan boys dropped by

Here's Mikey Khan sandwiched in between the lovely Barbie & Aneesa

Mikey Khan looking like Castro!

Labels Diva Jessica Evisu

the Khan ladies took a candid for the camera

the lovable, hugable Selvyn Mizrahi was in the building cracking jokes on the mic all night

Father Stone Khan and his protege

"Red" Allure bringing it in a T.I. inspired effect for Prettyboy Realness

And Mikey Khan in his Ludacris-inspired ensemble...

Khan Power: Bruce Khan and the Legendary Mother Luna Khan (just after she won Butch Queen Face). At 34 Luna is still making these young face children understand how a true LEGEND lives with grace and style on AND off the ballroom floor.

CJ Milan was ready to storm sex-siren

My gay father, close friend, and mentor, the legendary Michael Miyake Mugler was in the building promoting his upcoming function, the P.O.C.C. Ball in April

Micheal Khan of D.C. helped me great ready for my category, though the ball ended before it was called

the absoultely stunning Ayanna Khan was in the building. All eyes were on this woman all night!

Father Ruben Mizrahi ran around Manhattan with me all day Friday to get ready for the weekend. Here he is doing what he does best:crooning the camera!

The crowd was pleased to witness the return of Steve Khan, formerly of the House of Blahnik

His original ensemble was a showstopper and his walk was fire as always

The Khan Ladies were ready to party after the function

And so was Aneesa (Aneesa, email me!)

The epitome of grace and beauty: Legendary Mother Ayanna Khan and the gorgeous Tempress Miyake Mugler
