In August of 2004, Babes in Sin Burlesque was formed.
Wanting to start something different, Blue Angel and Rosie Rawhide decided to bring vintage bump and grind back to Vegas - something the city had been lacking for many, many years. With fellow troupe members Za'raa Rana , Penny Slots , and Potty Mouth rounding out the line-up, Babes in Sin set forth introducing new crowds to the world of old style burlesque.
Sadly in August of 2005, Rosie Rawhide moved back to her home state of Texas. Shortly thereafter, we lost our Blue Angel to the City of Angels - Los Angeles. Although we were incredibly sad to see them go, we are happy to have gained some incredible new talent in their place.
Although Rosie and Blue moved out of Las Vegas, they didn't just put burlesque on the back burner. They started their own Babes In Sin troupes in their new hometowns of Texas and California . C’mon did you really think these girls could live with out dancing? Branching out into three states now, Babes in Sin has come that much closer to world domination.
After a few months of burlesque withdrawls and without their star performers, Penny & Potty decided that they couldn’t take it anymore. It was time to scour Vegas for some new performers. That’s where we came upon the fantastic girls that make up the Babes in Sin troupe today. Talk about getting lucky in Vegas!
Cha Cha Velour : A voluputous shimmy and shaker who can twirl tassels like like a windmill in a hurricane. Always creative when it comes to her acts, this vavoom girl will have you hooked with her shapely hips, raven hair, and dazzling smile.
Hula-la KamaiwanaLeia brings the South Pacific to the desert. Trained in traditional hula dance, Hula-la is all about tearing up the stage with her creative and innovative choreography. Didn't think you could do a hula to some old rock-n-roll? Come to a show and see for yourself! You'll leave saying "Mahalo, Babes in Sin. Mahalo nui noa!" (Translation: "Thank you! Thank you VERY much!")
Ivy L’Vine : This girl really knows whats she's doing when she steps onto that stage. A natural performer and professionally trained dancer, this girl has got skills! She'll dance for you, she'll tease you, she will knock you down on your knees with her seductive style. Her motto is "I'm here to please, that's why I tease." And she means every word of it.
Suenami Saki : Suenami, a Baltimore transplant, came to Babes in Sin with a background in vaudeville sideshows and cranberry wrestling! No lie. While we asked her to save the cranberry sauce for Thanksgiving, her act hasn't lost any of it's sweet appeal on Las Vegas audiences.
Potty Mouth : Every three-ring circus needs a ringmaster and Potty Mouth is ours. She's loud, proud, and loves a good skin show. What better person to fill the role of burlesque emcee? Fond of cursing and drinking beer, she has a knack for pumping up a dull crowd and snappy comebacks. On a side note, she just wants you to know she does not have Tourette's. She was born this way.
Vita Vixen : Sweet and petite Vita goes out of her way to show you all the ways to swivel a hip and bend a body. You'll ask yourself "How the hell does she do that?" But don't get us wrong, she still knows how to dance like a lady while leaving something to your imagination. In a nutshell: Vita puts the "ass" in "classy".
