Last time I saw
The Rocky Horror Picture Show I was too
young to understand all the delicate nuances
of this film. But one thing was for sure: I
adore Tim Curry!
His opening song had every bit of influence
on me, as
Jessica Rabbit's. This is not just for my
GLBT readers (though I did think of you
). Curry has the voice,
body and poise to create a mesmerizingly
sexy burlesque performance. See for
yourself, the sweetest transvestite
bombshell to ever grace the silver
screen.

Burlesque has taken many forms through
the years, but one fact always stayed true:
The female form.
Last
week I talked about cartoon pinups
and added some videos for your viewing
pleasure. After a second watching, I
noticed something linking all these
unforgettable cinematic moments- A song
and a dance. These cartoon women didn't
only look good, they made for memorable
entertainment. They all reminded me of a
fabulous art form, enjoying an enticing
revival- burlesque.
Tattoos, piercing and brightly dyed hair
is what the neo-pinup girl is all about.
Christmas time is a time of giving and I want
to give some of my favorite neo-pinups a
tribute. Merry Christmas!
The pinup
revival is not about doing it like Vargas.
Today’s pinups are only a reminder of what
pinups used to look like. They have their own
special edge, with the tattoos, the piercing
and the brightly dyed hair. Maybe, in fifty
years- when the next pinup revival comes,
instead of the Betty Page hair-cut, they’ll
all have pink or red hair and body paint?
Halloween is huge for pinups (sadly the
correlation between the commercialization of
holidays and the growth of pop culture is
undeniable). So I set out to find this
Halloween's latest cheesecake
attractions.
Happy Halloween Everybody!
For this Halloween, I thought I'd celebrate
with my top 10 favorite Halloween web pinups.
From costumes, to art, to photography, the
web holds endless possibilities for the
Halloween pinup lover:

bombshell to ever grace the silver
