Naughty But Nice: 10 Stars of The New Burlesque

Burlesque - noted for its expensive costumes, bawdy humor, ever so slightly suggestive cabaret and of course a wee bit of strip tease thrown in for good measure. The New Burlesque, or neo-Burlesque as it is sometimes called, has gained considerable ground over the last few years and is even threatening to become mainstream. Well, I never.

If Michelle L’amour looks familiar then it could be that you caught her as a semi-finalist on America’s Got Talent. Since 2005 she has been performing the new burlesque around the world and it is estimated that she has been seen by more than fifty million people. From Sao Paulo to Paris, Switzerland to Los Angeles, Ms L’amour had performed to adoring audiences. She is the CEO of her own organization which produces her shows and has also published a book of photographs. Perhaps most popular of all have been her set of instructional videos called, of course, Tools of the Tease.
