Kitty Bang Bang Burlesque
The whisky-soaked, fire-breathin’, chopper ridin’ Princess of UK Burlesque, Kitty Bang Bang hits Vegas next month to compete for the ‘Best Debut’ title at The Burlesque Hall of Fame.
It takes a lot of behind the scenes preparation to roar onstage, breathe flames astride a custom chopper motorcycle or burst out through a giant magazine cover in a Westwood inspired ball gown.
Kitty Bang Bang is treating Burlexe to some sneak peeks of her journey to Vegas and we’ll be sharing them here as we get them. To read more about what Kitty’s looking forward to, check 21st Century Burlesque’s article.

“The awesome Agent Lynch just dropped off her confetti cannon for me to use in Las Vegas. I have ordered three kinds of confetti and plan on making the ultimate showgirl exploding wheelie bin!”
“I hope a) the confetti arrives in time and b) I can actually find a wheelie bin in Las Vegas. I’m quite looking forward to looking like a crazy person in the car park of The Orleans with my can of spraymount, bag of glitter and my confetti.
“Only just over a week until I fly. I’m so behind!!!!!!”
