PHILADELPHIA - On Saturday, July 19th, 2025, the ballroom scene descended on Philadelphia for one of the summer’s hottest functions — The Sexiest Ball Ever, hosted by none other than Icon Tank Mugler and Icon Markise Lanvin. The night was commentated By Icon Jack Mizrahi- Gorgeous Gucci, and Legendary Snooki West. With two Ballroom staples steering the night, the energy never dipped. The crowd was thick, the categories were stacked, and the competition was nothing short of savage.

Held in the heart of Philly, the night celebrated Ballroom culture and competition — with a touch of drama. From LSS to the final battle, the space was charged with pure ballroom adrenaline.

LSS was a showstopper — a seamless blend of fresh talent, and classic ballroom energy that transformed the Ball into a main-stage performance. It was more than an LSS — it was a celebration of legacy in real time.

Following LSS, Icon Jack Mizrahi-Gorgeous Gucci took the mic and silenced the room. With emotion and pride, he officially deemed DJVJ PumpDaBeat with legendary status. The crowd erupted, honoring a moment that was long overdue for one of ballroom’s most consistent creative forces.
