Thanks Mr. Rebelle!

Put a bird on it.

Hi. How you doing? Good I hope. Well tonight I’m gonna tell you a little story about my week.

Sooooo this week ( it’s only Tuesday night!!!)  has been super stressful with no thanks to PMS. Monday night I was in tears multiple times and I felt like Patrick Bateman during the business card scene.

I felt like this…image

 

And I wanted to do this…image

image

All over some trivial ass bullshit ( if you are just joining us,  I frequently shit where I eat and make bad decisions). Fuuuuuuu. Combine that with sewing and thinking about stupid shit and last night was pretty terrible.

Cut to about about an hour ago tonight and I get home from rehearsal. I live in a house with an alarm system. I roll up after stopping at the grocery store and notice a big red light is flashing. Oh that must be for the alarm…. I got to the front door and it’s ajar. Oh shit. And like a dumbass, I open the door and say “ Hello? Anybody there?” Well that was stupid. (Why don’t I just drop my panties and make it easier for the rapist*. ) So I call my room-mate and ask if they left in a hurry yadda yadda yadda.  They come home, and for whatever reason the door didn’t close when they left. Oh. Needless to say, I just got out of a nice long and hot Epsom salt bath and I’m  on my second drink of Ginger Ale and Jim Beam.

 

SOooooo with all that said, please come out and see me and all the amazing performers coming your way to tease and entertain you Thursday February 9th and Friday the 10th and  Saturday the 11th during the 6th Annual Southwest Burlesque Showcase.

A lot of blood, sweat, tears and glitter go into producing, costuming, choreographing, stage managing &  titty-taping in order to bring such an amazing festival to Albuquerque. Many many thanks to everyone involved!!

<3<3<3 XOXOXOXOX<3<3<3

Please say thank you, buy them drinks and give massages with happy endings. I would like all of the above please!!! xoxox

Better Living Through Bad Decisions

I sit here writing this on my newly awakened laptop ( it died in September) , eating Red Velvet Cake Pancake Puppies with Cream Cheese Icing from Denny’s. Life is good I tells ya!

The death knell for 2011 hasn’t even rung yet and 2012 is looking pretty dope. Not that 2011 wasn’t amazing. It was. I got to go to new cities and meet new amazing people. I had the best freaking birthday ever and I spent the holidays with my true family of friends.Oh I also feel in love…….with whiskey. 2011 has also given me a goal. A goal for 2012 and beyond. That goal: Make more bad decisions.

AhoPNaCCIAISi8-

It’s time to start living ladies and gents and make better bad decisions. Let this motto carry you through 2012 and beyond. See ya in jail bitches!

Burlesque Hangover

Wednesday night’s show with Trixie Little and the Evil Hate Monkey was one of the most exciting and weird and fantastic shows I have ever done. It was such an honor to share the stage with two of my most favorite performers. To see what they do and to see how the 505 crowd loved them was beyond amazing. I can’t thank them enough! I am also blown away by how amazing the New Mexico burlesque scene is. On a Wednesday night there was a large crowd, cheering, drinking and having a blast! Thank you audience!! And I can’t forget the amazing NM talent that graced the stage. Let me thumb through a thesaurus and just list all the synonyms for fantastic because that’s what they are: A-1, awesome, best, best ever, cat’s meow, delicious, far out, first-class, first-rate, great, like wow, marvelous, out of sight, out of this world, primo, sensational, superb, unreal!!

 

Also, I just found out that I got accepted to perform at the Colorado Burlesque festival. Not only will I be performing with Burlesque Noir but I will also be bringing my Mary Jane solo up to the Mile High City. I’m pretty stoked. So I get to join the ranks of Holly Rebelle, Kitty Irreverent, Tallulah St. James, Zircus Erotique, and Vivian Mirann. New Mexico is at least in every show representing and probably gonna tear a new asshole in Colorado. Stay tuned for more details!

FUCK! Have I got some exciting news for you!

windycity

We are hoping we can get a fundraiser going soon so we can buy our plane tickets because for some odd reason, flights to Chi-Town are fucking expensive.  I may have to sell a kidney. I’m really excited to get a Chicago style hot dog. I love hot dogs.

Also, the Tini’s and Teaser’s show at Low Spirits was amazing. The show went over capacity. And I got to say, I my new solo was smoking hot. Look at how hot I am.

thehotnessIf you missed this you are on my shit list and I am going to find you and sit on your face and fart the Russian National Anthem. Seriously. You are dumb for missing me perform. DON’T EVER DO IT AGAIN!!!!

Oh and we are going to perform at Rock the Ink in March as well. Can you say “busy beavers”?

 

Remember to check out BN at the 5th Annual Southwest Burlesque Showcase. The lovely Ann Gora will be performing Friday night and Mr. and Mrs. Rebelle along with BN will be performing Saturday. UNF!

Colorado Burlesque Festival

GEDC0060

The program for the weekend. Oh yeah check out that line-up!!!

First off, can I just say how THRILLED I am to be apart of an amazing group of girls who decide to get naked in front of a crowd of thousands? Because I am. I am apart of the amazing group Burlesque Noir and without them I would not have had the BEST WEEKEND EVER!

Ok, now to a long narration of the trip. I was having too much fun to take pictures. Deal with it.

So I fly out Saturday morning. Get to the airport and there is a looooooong line for security. Whatevs, breeze right through.  Quick hour long flight to Denver and then I am wondering around Denver airport just trying to leave. I swear I thought I would never get out of there. Anyways finally made it out and got picked up by Holly Rebelle and her husband.   So, we make it to our hotel, The Curtis, and it is one awesome hotel. I stayed on the thirteenth floor and it had a horror theme. The elevator doors open, and you hear Jack Nicolson’s voice, the doors open and there is a picture of “Here’s Johnny” from the Shining. Yeah. Awesome.

GEDC0057Lounging around until we go to tech at the Gothic Theater. 

GEDC0058 

What’s up clear shower?

We  go to have a tech rehearsal at the Gothic Theatre. I love the Gothic Theatre. It’s so nice performing at a place that has professional sound and tech people. Love it.

I ATE CHIPOTLE!!!!

After tech we head to the Aerial Dance Over Denver space to attend a workshop with Michelle L’amour and Trixie Little and Evil Hate Monkey.  Holy crap Michelle’s workshop was so intense and soooo much fun. She is funny and amazing to work with.

Michelle L'Amour workshop

Trixie and Monkey’s workshop was a fantastic exercise in improv and just having a fantastic time. 

Now time to perform at the first ever Colorado Burlesque Festival!!

Thanks for the great pics Broken Glass Photography!

 

We got to watch the entire first act since we opened the second act. Amazing. Highlight, Trixie and Evil Hate Monkey’s Total Eclipse of the Heart piece. I was soo moved. And Tigger! I love me some Tigger!

We totally rocked TD-36DD. I would walk through the audience and people would just come up to me and tell me how awesome the piece was. YES!

The rest of the second act blew me away. Peggy Tulane is adorable. Trixie and Monkey’s piece had the best us of a fog machine. Michelle L’Amour’s Sally Rand Fan Dance brought me to tears because it was so magical, graceful and all around damn good!

Oh and Liam Sullivan mced as Kelly.

OMG SHOES Afterparty at Jonsey’s Eat Bar who were nice enough to donate food and booze backstage and stay open past last call for us naked drunks!

These pics taken by Kate Levy and I got them from :http://www.westword.com/slideshow/backstage-at-the-colorado-burlesque-festival-30321624/1 which has a huge slideshow of photos from the Colorado Burlesque Festival.

After we got kicked out of Jonsey’s, there was an after after party in Tigger!’s room 504. I can’t post those photos due to the heavy nudity, booze and Effiel Towering.

We all partied until 5:30 in the morning, and I ended up standing outside out hotel in nothing but underwear and sneakers. I had been up for 24 hours and needed to get some rest before check out and the 7 hour drive back to Albuquerque.

The drive back was pretty hilarious. There was puke, blood, Human Centipede jokes,delirium, and Secret Diary of a Call Girl. Yup. Car full of hot mess.

So I’m slowly coming back down from that amazing high. For a festival that was put on for the first time, the organizers did an amazing job. Thank you so much for your hard work and fantastic asses: Lola Spitfire, Fannie Spankings, Honey Touche, Midnight Martini, Liam Sullivan, Jonesy’s Eat Bar, Tigger!, Trixie Little and Evil Hate Monkey, Michelle L’Amour, The Gothic Theatre staff, the awesome burlesque fans in Denver, Burlesque Noir, Wynkoop, Pandora  Jewelry, Starshine, Pampered Passions, the amazing performers & Delicia Dollcurls for the photos!

Oh yeah, performers got goodie bags!GEDC0067

WTF right? Are you dreaming? Am I dreaming?   I’m working at a bead shop. I get paid to look at shiny things and make jewelry. Fuck yes!
