We have fallen in Love...

We would like to say a big thank you to everyone who performed, attended or helped out at Secrets of the Boudoir Burlesque Falls in Love on Sunday!

The event was reviewed by the wonderful Sofire Rosa and will be featured in 'Toast' magazine and online Burlesque magazine, 'Debased' next month.

We fell head over heels for you all and our heads are now swimming with flowers, candy and the smell of sweet perfume and our hearts are heavy with obsession, desire and envy!

We would like to thank everyone who took part in our performer auction, especially those of you who bid on our delicious SotBB boys and girls!  Special mentions to Warren Peace, Deadly Nightshade and Duke O'Growl who achieved the highest bids of the night!  Also, let us give a big hand to our wonderful maid Stephanie, a.ka. Coco de Mol who did a wonderful job of tending the 'Love Booth' all night, serving you champagne and chocolates on your 'date' and generally just being as gorgeous and glamorous as possible!

We began our evening of luuurve by dishing up a big plate of 'Envy' as Cherry Du Bois and Deadly Nightshade fought for the affections of Knickerbockerglory at the on stage 'bus stop'! 

Then we had Susie Von Garter perform her sickly sweet love heart shaped balloon pop, complete with heart shaped 'LollyPOP' which was used to pop her pink balloons.

Followed by the curvacious blonde Sian de Leir showing off her burning desire with a forbidden 'Fire Fan' act which left us all a-flame for her love. 

We then had our hunk of the hour Duke O'Growl sing with the beautiful Knickerbockerglory and they both said 'Something stupid' like 'I Love You'! 

All the way from London, Vivica Devine showed us what misplaced love is like when she fell for a vampire! 

Then Pansy Cheung had us mesmerised with her belly dance of devotion and worship originating from Orissa, India. 

We then welcomed Duke O'Growl back to the stage along with our sultry, sexy and down-right delicious compere Mr. Warren Peace as they sang a duet of epic proportions and Duke narrowly avoided a good touching...amongst other things! 

The gorgeous Sian de Leir was then welcomed back to the stage as she decided whether 'He Loves me, He Loves me Not' whilst clutching a bouquet of red roses dressed in ruby red satin. 

Duke O'Growl then serenaded his lucky date on stage and began to do her a little bit of a striptease...we are disappointed that this did not continue...and we will be having stern words... 

Depravity Jane then took to the stage and showed us how an all American cow-girl falls in love, Jane style! 

Vivica Devine then came back to walk down the aisle in a wedding dress only to get jilted at our on stage alter!  She then pulled some fabulous isis wings out of her wedding dress and whirled around the crowd deciding it hadn't been such an 'Imperfect Day' after all.

Making her debut solo performance we welcomed SotBB door-girl Scarlet Noir to the stage as she showed us the 'Crazy' side of love with a mad and hilarious routine involving the destruction of a teddy bear, a poster and some flowers...poor teddy...

Knickerbockerglory then sang 'Perhaps' to a coy Warren Peace, hoping for an answer and getting a kiss!

The svelte-like Warren Peace then owned our stage with his fabulous rendition of 'I Will Always Love You', teasing our audience along the way.

Duke O'Growl took to the stage for the very last time with Dante Powerhouse to sing another beautiful duet which set our hearts-a -flutter.

Finishing off the night perfectly was Depravity Jane wishing Deadly Nightshade a 'Happy Birthday' by presenting her with a Birthday cake.  Jane then teasingly rubbed the cake all over herself whilst Nightshade watched her Sailor Jerry's cake (hand-made by the 'Mad hatters Cupcake Co') get destroyed! 

All in all, we had a wonderful night and experienced all sides of love!  A big thank you goes out to our three glamorous door-girls who just looked simply stunning all evening and to our D.J Mr. Vince Spitfire who always does a fabulous job.  He did a great job on Sunday having to cope with all manner of weird and wonderful song formats whilst feeling a little worse for wear!  We heart Vince!  Also, let's hear it for all of the guys and gals at West Street Live for allowing us to turn their venue into our own little love den for the evening...and to whoever had to clean up all of the cake...urm...sorry!

Much love,
Secrets of the Boudoir Burlesque.x
