I thought that perfectly encapsulates the entire concept and history!

*rolls eyes* oh for goodness sake... seeing that feathers quote completely puts me off even opening the article!

You don't need sound, it's a written article.

Yes, Dec defends burlesque in this article Nice to see that the myth, that burlesque and stripping are equivalent, is not persisting in all circles!

wow before I read that I don't think I truly understood what burlesque was! Ant you are a man of wise words....

Hooray! I read that article thinking it was going to be all bad, but if Ant and Dec are telling the nation 'this isn't burlesque, it's stripping*' then that has to be a good thing.

It might get people discussing what burlesque actually is then and perhaps finding local shows** to find out more.

I'm sure all the vegan burlesquers are thrilled to find out it's all feathers.

(*NOT that there is ANYTHING wrong with stripping, before anyone gets on their high swaroski bejewelled horses mind you)

(**unless local shows are like a local pub who suddenly advertised on the radio yesterday that they were holding open-burlesque auditions that evening, great way to make money out of aspiring young ladies, because you can knock up a decent burlesque routine in an afternoon anyway. It does peeve me that punters going to the pub now think that what is burlesque is, rant over)
