Springtime!

The last couple of weeks have been pretty crazy. Thank you to Lili Mirezmoi for having me perform at her Sassy Cabaret in Brussels the other week, to John-Paul Bichard for taking some amazing photos and to everyone at the burlesque brunch <3

Last weekend was the 10th Helsinki Burlesque Festival and as I really have no words to describe the whole thing (I´ll do a proper post later) I want to thank Bettie & Frank for making the magic happen and for having me as a part of the whole thing.
Thee Dizzy Daisies premiered our new Ice fairies-number and there are so many people and acts that made my head spin I really have to get back to this later.

...because tomorrow at 4am I´m off to perform three nights at the Toulouse Burlesque Festival, - yeah that´s France! I looked at the weather and it´s +20 and sun -can´t wait!

Hope to see you in Toulouse, folks! Be safe!

Burlesque Blossoms

Tonight is the annual "newbie night" - Burlesque Blossoms! I will be there rooting for everyone, there might be some tickets left.
More info here!

I still remember how terrified and excited I was at my own Newcomer´s Night in 2010 :)
Good luck everyone, you´re sparkling miracles already <3

P.S remember to BREATHE!

Happy New Year 2017!

Let´s hope it´ll be all that and a bag of chips! Listen, apart from hopefully teaching a Shimmering High Heels-burlesque workshop in Turku on January 28th I also have the immense pleasure of performing in Tampere the same evening!

Olivia Rouge did it again: she´s putting me on stage with some AMAZING performers. I´ve been hoping for The Return Of Rudie Ruthless *for ages* and here it IS: he will be here! Stella Polaire, Nana Violet, Lady Laverna, , Mimi de FrouFrou, Olivia herself AND the amazing Rubyyy Jones from the UK!
I met this woman in Vienna at the first ever Vienna Boylesque Festival and let me tell you: she is quite something <3
Can´t WAIT to see her again!!!

You know the drill: get tix. It will probably sell out.
