My Interests |
|
| Exactly what the hell IS burlesque anyway? Burlesque has taken off in the US. Women from all over the country in cities so small that they barely even have a stage to perform on host burlesque events weekly. Why has this form of entertainment resurfaced? Why are women who could easily be your sister or your girlfriend or even a mom taking it all off for screaming audiences filled with other women? This form has enabled women to voice their opinions without words, to show the world how sexy they are and at the same time start to believe it themselves, besides that, it's fun, that's why! I started performing classic burlesque routines in New York City in 1997 after choreographing and performing my first fan dance with a touring theater company a few years before. Those fans sat on a shelf while my ideas for other acts simmered and Dirty Martini was born. Since then, the world of new burlesque grew up around me and my family of performers started to grow. I used to know everyone in the country who performed burlesque and now it's grown so large that new performers and troupes are so numerous that even in my own city I can't keep track of them all. Two summers ago when I performed with Cabaret New Burlesque at the Summer festival in Paris, I was a witness to the first new burlesque show there and in London the art form has been thriving with performers for more than three years. Young women strive to define themselves among fashion magazines and television selling the female body as a product as finite as Clinique moisturizer. Burlesque is the new punk rock. It offers a way for women to redefine themselves without the limits that society places. My fans often write to me about their own transformations. They don't want to hate their bodies anymore they want to flaunt what they were born with like I do. Burlesque is akin to drag and I believe that drag defies gender. Some people are crazy about building airplanes and some people need to dress up and wear feathers. Isn't it a beautiful thing! Other things aside from burlesque that inspire me are as follows: Road trips, small and large theater and the humbling experience of ballet class in the morning. People who have harsh opinions and know how to use them. My family both genetic and chosen. |

Movies:Just saw Mafioso! It's brilliant. Oh my god, what about Aqua Teen Hunger Force? Wow. Blades of Glory is an inspirational film. I also like movies movies I'm in such as Underbelly, The Velvet Hammer burlesque documentary, Sell Out!, You'd be Prettier if you Smiled, Night of the Living Gay, Broad Daylight and Shortbus. |
|
Television:It's a vice that I'm proud of. I like NYC public access and watching Match Game on the Gameshow Network. Watch This or That! Sundays at midnight on Channel 57 and Check out my friends at Gay Action News. I'm addicted to Turner Classic Movies. Cookin' Cheap, Simpsons, South Park, Space Ghost Coast to Coast, Six Feet Under and Project Runway are my favorites. My new favorite: Ninja Warrior |
|
Books:I like to have time to read. I'm currently reading The Greatest Story Ever Sold. I have a bit of an erotica habit and I like books that I'm in such as Burlesque from Gaslight to Spotlight, Burlesque the New Bump and Grind, New Burlesque, and Sex and the City, Lisa Karezi's Fantasies and Velvet Hammer, the book. |
