Raised on Cape Cod , Ma, Lala Luscious moved to Boston in 2013 looking for a fresh start — and found her true creative home. With a background in fashion design and jewelry making, she’s always been an artist, drawn to building beautiful things with her hands and telling stories through style.
In 2016 Lala became officially certified as a twerk technician through the renowned Vertical Joe’s in Atlanta, Ga. She has been teaching twerk at Fly Together Fitness in Watertown and Somerville since 2023.
When she began participating in Boston’s burlesque scene, everything clicked. Burlesque gave her a space to blend all her passions — from designing costumes and crafting jewelry to expressing herself through movement and music. Known for her bold stage presence and signature twerk appeal, Lala brings her vision to life with every performance.
Today, Lala Luscious is an active member of Boston’s burlesque community. She’s here to shake things up — and continues to do so with her Bubble Burlesque productions.
