Burleskival is a go-go

Crystal Bertholic, aka Crystal Explosion, climbed a few steps and stood behind the microphone on stage at nYne Bar & Bistro.

Her hair sculpted tall, her lips sparkling red, her corset black, she would deliver just a taste of her burlesque act this morning, she told the small audience.

Slowly, she lifted her leopard-print jacket from her shoulders and dropped it to the floor. Slowly, she bit one finger of one long black glove and tugged, then a second finger and a third, and slowly she pulled her hand free.

“For me,” Bertholic said, “burlesque is all about tease, all about slow, all about confidence – and all about loving your body.” Full story. Adrian Rogers, SR
