I recall that Doug asked John Carder Bush and he confirmed that
"Kashka" is indeed a male character.

Judi asks if the "...hitting the vaseline" might refer to an actor
removing his makeup.  I don't think Kate has ever specifically said
what this was referring to.  I think though, that the "patting the 
bottom" gesture along with that sly look during that phrase in the 
video really leave little room for doubt.  Maybe it's a double
entendre.
