Sequins and Glitter

I just got done watching Burlesque; the movie not a live show, and I loved it! I wasn't sure I would like it when it first came out but it was on one of my pay cable channels and so I watched it. It was filled with beautiful girls, hot choreography moves and skimpy, glittery, sequined outfits.

There is a great group of girls in New Orleans that put on burlesque shows in the Quarter. They are called Fleur De Tease. Here is a clip of one of their skits.

These girls put together outfits of sequins, feathers and satin by themselves. They wear fantastic wigs and do sexy, flirtatious moves to taunt and entertain the audience. I am sure some of you reading this is thinking something like; this is New Orleans, they are known for debauchery and girls showing their ***s. But, au contraire, mon frere! These girls use classic burlesque tricks, teasing the audience- not stripping-those girls work on Bourbon Street.

Next time you are in New Orleans try to catch one of their shows- they usually perform at One Eyed Jacks in the French Quarter.
