HOLA, sexies! My name's Viva Valezz! And I love to make new burlesque and drag friends! If you'd like to "talk (performance) shop," I'd love to shoot the shit with you. ---- I especially love the power and spirit of women - and love to surround myself with smart, sexy ones. You can't have too many friends! ----
Viva! is available for performances. Let me bump and grind for you! If you're having an interesting variety show, I'd love to be a part of it - because I love the opportunity to perform. If you're looking for a burlesque entertainer for hire in the Columbus area, and you're interested in booking a "tease-o-gram" PG-13 dance performance (birthday parties, bachelorette parties, anniversary parties, etc.), or if you'd like to receive more information, you can email me at [email protected] or send me a myspace email message. Or, go to my website: http://vivavalezzburlesque.i8.com. ---- Thanks, sexy friends! I look forward to shaking it for you! Be sexy! Besos!
To learn more about burlesque, OR before you judge me, please read this:
"Burlesque is about bringing women together through our mutual sexuality, common fantasies and the natural beauty of each individual female body. One of the best things about burlesque is that the women who perform don’t fit into a cookie cutter mold of “appropriate body-type.†We are all women, all curves, some more on top, some more on bottom, every single one of us has cellulite, we eat cupcakes, candy, drink sodas on stage… After all, we aren’t trying to “be†anything other than normal women who are also sex goddesses. ----Ultimately, the “meaning†of burlesque is up to the viewer. But if you listen to what I’m saying—watch what I’m saying—when I’m on stage you’ll start to notice the difference between burlesque and stripping. I’m not saying, “Look at me because I’m a female and I can get you sexually excited.†I’m saying, “I’m letting you look at me because I’m okay with my body and I am a sexual and creative creature and what I offer is a gift to all I give it to.†----The point is we open ourselves up in order to discover our own freedom and power. We go against everything we have been brought up to believe is “good†for self-respecting girls. But I’ll tell you, I have more respect for myself now than I ever did before I started performing burlesque. I have challenged myself, my self-image, my standing in society and with my family. I’m risking a lot, but I’ve gained so much more. If you’re performing burlesque for the right reasons you’ll never be looked down upon by anyone who is worth being seen by, because it is the inner beauty that shines in spite of the presumptions and the “dirty†connotations it holds for some. The fact is, if an audience member isn’t comfortable with female bodies (specifically your own body) then please don’t come. I can’t make you see your own fat thighs as beautiful. I can only show you that I think my fat thighs are." AMEN! ---- From the article, "NeoBurlesque: A Feminist Ideal," by Linsey Lindburg (aka Mama Lou) from Satya Magazine.

FRIENDS MESSAGE: If you have become a Myspace Friend of Viva!, you WILL receive notices of upcoming events. If you don't want to receive these notices of upcoming burlesque shows, don't become my Myspace Friend. I mean that in the nicest possible way. I DO send out comments and bulletins. In return, I'd be MORE than happy to help any of my friends promote their shows and events. That's what Friends are for! Thanks for your understanding. Gracias! Besos - Viva!
Margaret Cho: "I was so amazed when I saw the (burlesque)performance. There were women with all different body types, ages, races, and you could tell they were so happy and comfortable with their bodies. I was crying when I saw it, it really cured me." For Cho, who performed burlesque on her tour "The Sensuous Woman," burlesque was not about sexualizing herself as much as it was about emancipating her from the idea that her body is a prison. "We are so conditioned to a certain look that models have, and people think that's the only kind of body that can be beautiful and sexual, and that's not true, everybody has that ability."
Charo, Sophia Loren, Ann-Margret, Bettie Page, Habeeba, and all the hot latina ladies in my family.
