Lily and Ivy have been starcrossed cohorts for an innumerable amount of faerie years. It wasn’t until 2019 that the Star and the Faerie crossed paths yet ever so slightly. Lily had become close friends with burlesque legend, Lovey Goldmine and was excited to hear that Lovey would be acting as Ivy Faerie’s mentor in 2020. Lily was the stage manager that year and stood in the wings to watch Lovey Goldmine’s protegé “tear up the stage” and leave the audience “breathless” walking away with top honors. In 2021 Lily chose to be mentored by none other than, Ivy Faerie and together they received crowns as mentor and protegé. The relationships had come full circle. Because of the opportunities afforded them by burlesque legend, Gabriella Maze, they are no longer starcrossed, they are friends who have a mutual admiration and respect both on and off stage.
