=====Compact Bio of Queen Allyson=====
Queen Allyson Allante was first-named after her #1 favorite actress Lana Turner's daughter 'Allison' (McKenzie) in the blockbuster book and Academy Award-winning film "Peyton Place"! Our Allyson's maiden name 'Anderson' is derived from another hit and ultra-dramatic Lana Turner film, "Madame X", in which L.T. portrays Holly 'Anderson'. If you know Allyson, you know her favoroite actress always was and is Hollywood queen Lana Turner! After all, they do have many commonalities. Our Allyson's last name changed many years later when she married the tall, dark, handsome, athletic, outgoing and sexy Marlon W. Hunter (nee Hurt) from Long Beach, Long Island, NY in 1989. They owned a pearl white Cadillac Allante roadster (with removable hard top), the most expensive vehicle in America at that time! Queen Allyson's third husband (the 1990s), the body-building, debonniare and impressive-looking Farrell Armstrong, is the absolute favorite of all of her friends and most of her fans. Over the years, they owned several, ultra-luxury, huge Cadillac Brougham sedans. Farrell and Allyson are pictured below in a magazine special on the original film "Stonewall". Farrell was on the movie 'set' when Allyson was filmed for her real-life, Stonewall Rebellion 'Testimonial' role -- with 'Credit' -- in the original "Stonewall" movie![Note: This
Queen Allyson Allante biographical section shall be expanded.
More her-story and fabulous pix
will be posted in the hot Summer of 2020!]

Diana Ross acknowledges the presence of "Allyson Anderson in the House"! FYI, Anderson was Allyson's
maiden name and the last name that Miss Ross and many other celebrities know her as. During the end
of the audience participation song "I Will Survive", Diva Diana, who had spotted Queen Allyson ("AAA")
from the stage earlier, now has the opportunity to walk over -- all the while singing -- and shakes
hands with Queen Allyson A. in the front row center with handsome Prince AnDre Christie! Allyson was
wearing a shimmering, full-length, very Supremish glamour ink gown. Queen Diana is wearing a beautiful
bright yellow gown. It was a truly grand, entertaining and fabulous evening all around!

Queen
Allyson Ann on her 'movie set' at home for "Stonewall"
film
[Photo by Farrell Armstrong]
Unlike all of the other Stonewall vets -- in all ways -- who were interviewed on film and actually accepted and cast in the "Stonewall" movie, Queen Allyson Ann ("AAA") even chose her own movie set! She strongly suggested (demanded a la Lana Turner) and the producers gladly agreed to film AAA in her own home at The Bromley, a luxury condominium high-rise in Manhattan. Although it is evening time -- the time zone that Allyson chose -- the distant background through the window is the Palisades in New Jersey! This site location at The Bromley is on Broadway at West 83rd Street in the Upper West Side. King Farrell Armstrong and Queen Allyson's condo apartment is on the 20th (of 21 floors) with a spectacular view. One floor up on the penthouse level is entertainer/actor/producer Harvey Feirstein with transgender hits "La Cage Aux Folles" Broadway musical, "Torch Song Trilogy" the movie and "Hairspray" the play and the movie! Several floors down, ironically, is the transgender "Church Lady" from "Saturday Night Live". Dana Carvey lives in the building! Isn't that 'special'? Allyson's wardrobe for the movie is totally her own. The black, high-cocktail sequenced dress and accessories in the photo are exactly what AAA is wearing in the film. As a result of this full-feature movie, Queen Allyson Ann is listed in many film sources including the International Movie Database at: www.IMDB.com. {Enter: Stonewall.}

Pride Parade starts with Queen Allyson Allante and the STONEWALL Rebellion Veterans Association leading the marching extravaganza with the fabulous candy blue 1969 convertible. Pictured with Queen Allyson is noted G.L.B.T. historian Martin Duberman, author of the book "Stonewall".

Proudly shown sitting atop the rear seat of the famous "Stonewall Car" are some veterans of the 1969 Stonewall Rebellion, all officers of the S.V.A. (l-2-r): Storme DeLarverie, Yvonne Ritter and Jeremiah Newton and veteran Randy Wicker standing next to the famous 1969 "Stonewall Car".

Letter from former N.Y.C.
Mayor
John Lindsay to Queen Allyson Allante
Mayoral Letter to the Queen {above} from former NYC Mayor John V. Lindsay
For the 25th anniversary of the 1969
Stonewall Rebellion and the entire "Stonewall 25" anniversary, all of
the Stonewall veterans -- in person, via mail, by phone and through fax
-- voted on which Stonewall veteran they wanted to be the Official
Spokesperson for the National STONEWALL
Rebellion Veterans Association ("S.V.A.") in interviews with
televison stations, magazines and newspapers and speaking on stage in Central Park for the historic and
huge celebration rally. The overwhelming choice was the
widely-known, well-versed and glamorous Queen Allyson Ann Allante!
On an absolutely beautiful, sunny and proud day, leading with
Queen Allyson the alternative, non-UN "Authentic Stonewall 25 March" up Fifth Avenue
in Manhattan, New York, will be the only
vehicle in either march, namely, the classic 1969 blue convertible "Stonewall Car". This
grand chariot will be carrying Queen Allyson and some of her "Stonewall Girlz" namely Bonnie
Bluegown, Electra O'Mara and Sylvia Rivera. Driven by the
mocha handsome, very talented and sexy hot Kevin "Rockwell" O'Neal, the
"Stonewall Queens" will be
driven as close as possible to the park staging area. Security
shall be tight for these legendary Stonewall Galz. On the huge stage, Queen
Allyson, in a beautiful, muave-colored, sequinced, designer gown, will
be joined by almost all of the other Stonewall Vetz (at least "25") from
both G.L.B.T. Pride
anniversary marches. Allyson is the one who will speak with
several prepared statements from the S.V.A.
organization and ACT-UP and the I.Q.K.N.Y. as
well as extemperaneous observations and comments directly from the
Queen! In addition to being on the Board of Directors of the S.V.A., Queen Allyson is the
longtime Imperial Queen and President of the Imperial QUEENS & Kings of New York.
The IQKNY was mentioned
several times in their Queen's literally stirring speech.

The public duo and sometimes show "Allyson & Farrell" present a stunning, stylish, eye-catching and hot royal couple. They have done so since they met on September 13, 1989, in Greenwich Village, New York -- at a West 14th Street candy store ironically named Debonaire! |
