You got questions? I got answers. Do the damn thing! For a complete list of questions people have asked me, click here!
what were you in a past life?
Definitely a carny. No doubt. I traveled the world with my tight knit crew, saw amazing things, and met fascinating people. I was a carny who did contortion, read palms, and danced to make money. I definitely never had much money, but I had some truly amazing experiences that made me wiser for my current life. Altho, there are things in this life I’m learning too, that will help me for my next one.
How did you get into burlesque, and where do you see yourself going from here? Burlesque just kinda happened. Like I said b/f I used to be part of a Vaudeville duo called “Jack and Jinx”. We’d get a lot of performance gigs with burlesque groups as the comic relief. When Jack and Jinx were no longer a duo, I didn’t quite know where to go next. I had all these ideas for different dance/physical acts, but where was I gonna do them? Since I had ALL these connects to the burlesque world I thought I might try a crack at it and go from there. It clicked with me more than I had planned on…
From here I plan to keep getting better @ my Ariel work and hopefully start producing my own shit. Not interested in a FULL on burlesque show, but maybe something along the Cabaret/Vaudeville line. I really like melding the theatrical world with the bar/club industry. I think there is something really entertaining and accessible about this kinda pairing. Particularly for those who don’t go to the theatre a lot. It’s starting to become ‘New Hawtness”.
what is your fantasy? What kinda fantasy you askin about?
I’m a pretty big realist. If I want something I know what is and isn’t realistic, but sometimes to exceed your goals you need a little fantasy momentum, right? Still…don’t be stupid, yah know? I’ve got A LOT of goals to reach. The one thing I always hope for is success with whatever I do.
If you’re asking on a sexual basis…that changes all the time and depends on the person. People often surprise me…
If you had a pianist/composer/songwriter at your discretion, what would you do with them? I’d run ‘em ragged
I would try to collaborate like crazy!! I wanna work with more creative peeps, particularly musicians…I’m a BIG fan of being in control of my own shit so it would be fuckin’ fantastic to create original music and perform it live. I actually miss singing just for the sake of singing…Why? Know anyone interested?
I’ll be whatever you want me to be
I like to consider myself “the chameleon”. I’m too excited about too many things to get tied down to one stereotype…yah feel me?
I wasn’t necessarily “pulled” to it in the beginning, it just kinda happened. I like it b/c I get to be in charge of my own art. I know, for some, it’s hard to imagine that taking your clothes off is considered “art”, but you’d be surprised at how skillful it can be if you’re good at it.
I’m very physical and I like to express myself thru movement and facial expression. When I create an act I want it to tell a story. I’m not interested so much in how “sexy” I am. I’m interested in making sure you, the audience, is entertained and invested in the character you see on stage. Whether it’s a zombie rising from the grave or a conductor of an orchestra turned Dj. Whatever the scenario you wanna get to know this character.
Over time who knows where I’ll go with this…but for right now I’m having fun and I really get to have some ownership with what I do. I think my next step…producing…It’s gettin’ to be that time…
Smurfs vs Gummy Bears, thoughts? Chew on this…

Does that answer your question?
Well other than then the obvious one which would be Jacob from twilight? (FAGGOT!!) Ummmm….I’m a big fan of Mr. Darcy…Dorian Gray…Ok who am I kidding? Here’s the thing…I don’t read. So my choices are souly based on movies Ive seen. But I can pretty much guarantee that if they’re an asshole then, I’s probably bone ‘em.
And as far positions…I’d get creative
I just wish
the girl would be more assertive, yah know? She needs to learn how to become a better “people person”. Have you noticed how shy the bish can be? It’s a shame too cuz she’s so pretty and smart…I’m trying to get her to come out of her shell, but it’s definitely gonna take a little bit of time I think.
When you see her, say “hi” it makes her feel good
