It is with an incredibly heavy and somber heart that we regret to inform you all of the passing of Erin Sheets, or her better known name Kylie Kamakazi. She died in a car crash while delivering a meal to a friend and on the way, even stopped to help others involved in another accident. She was known for her big heart and leaves behind her husband and child.
Erin had previously servedas a mechanic in the US Army, where she proudly rose to Corporal ranking before becoming a rising name within the Featured Performer industry. A well rounded person and performer, she was invested in more of the classic burlesque style and was proficient in fire, Lyra, pole and sword swallowing. After wowing audiences with at the 2019 Nudes-A-Poppin’ competition with a vocal performance of ‘Daddy”, complete with jumping out of a cake, she later informed us of having auditioned for America’s Got Talent. Her abilities were boundless, only matched by that of her confidence.
Being someone who was so giving of her time, we at Peeled were honored to gain almost an hour of it for an interview. She discussed her past and goals for the future. From her beginning as a singer at the early age of just five years old, to her experiences within the industry, positive and negative. She especially showed concern for the future of the industry and it’s lack of diversity within. No matter what the topic, Erin remained humble from beginning to end. We were even able to touch on her perspective as feminist woman within the industry, and how the experience was an empowering one.
Always on the search to expand her abilities, Erin had recently even begun studying the art of Brazilian Jujitsu, even winning medals.
We here at Peeled and anyone who was privileged enough to meet her will always remember Kylie’s smile, kindness and drive to be the best version of herself as an entertainer.
