Happy International Women´s Day!

Today we celebrate everyone who is, want to be or feels like a woman! So congrats my darlings, enjoy your day and I hope we all will get pampered!
Last nights gig at the Kouvola hippodrome was one of a kind, thank you organizers and audience! A very special and fun place to perform! I have never been to a hippodrome before, nor actually see the horses race live -nor performed in one! so it was a first for me.

Tonight you people are sooo spoiled, in Tampere there is the Teerenpeli Tease Hollywood edition with none other than the Queen of the Quake from Californa: Kitten de Ville herself headlining! Other lovelies on stage include Holy Curves!, Albine A. Dorable, Olivia Rouge, Kiki Hawaiji, Miss Magpie and Molly Moonstone.  MC is the one and only mr. Lafayette Lestrange! 




In Hellsinki you can go to the Speakwasy party held at the Helsinki Casino where the Ravising Shangri-La Rubies will take you back to the roaring 1920´s!
So really folks, you have no excuses :)  I do...I have a HUGE pile of papers I need to correct as soon as I finish my morning coffee and get my hot yoga done. Boom, there´s a showgirls´ Saturday for you haha!

It´s here!

Happy Friday everyone!

And indeed, a happy one it is! HBF kicked off on Wednesday with the first workshops and today is the first day of shows at Gloria! I really do hope you have tickets because the last time I checked tomorrow is sold out and for tonight there are only a few left! The line-up is amazing! I got to meet some of the performers last night at the meet & greet and they are such sweethearts even if there is a some jetlag and flue going around <3
A big thank you at the moment especially to Perle Noire and Kitten de Ville whom I had the pleasure of assisting at their workshops! You ladies are a true ispiration and raise the bar of performing  sky-high!!! I learned so much!
21st Century Burlesque made a piece on the Helsinki Burlesque Festival and why it´s so popular and in high demand, please read it here! Bettie Blackheart is one helluva producer & performer and an ispiration and I´m so proud to be able to call her my "burlesque-mom" <3

Hope to see you at Gloria or tomorrow at Imogen Kelly´s or Kitten de Ville´s workshops! Ta!

Long time

It´s been a while, hasn´t it?
between being really sick with a damn cold and a trip to Stockholm there hasn´t been much going on. I have officially declared Spring in the form of changing my kitchen curtains and buying a fabulous Frida-Kahlo-ish wax cloth for my big table! It´s bright turquoise with pink roses and I LOVE IT!
I was supposed to go and see Pepper Potemkin shake her thang last Saturday in Stockholm but having 38 degrees fever kinda put a stop to that plan :( Good thing is, she is coming to Helsinki Burlesque Festival next week!
NEXT WEEK! I´m taking workshops with Perle Noire and am happy to be Kitten DeVille´s workshop assistant -can´t wait to meet these amazing ladies! I´m trying not to stress about festival outfits, I will take the easy way out this year even if me, Sandy and Pepper do have an idea for Friday-night!
Looking forward to tomorrow at Raspberry Fields, I´ll be working on my upcoming number and making some coreo-changes with Sandy for some of Thee Daisies stuff. Just hope this snot would disappear from my head!!!
Have a grand day everyone! I need to get some teacher-stuff done, even on this week of holidays :) Ta!
