Looking up bunny burlesque acts to make sure I’m not accidentally replicating someone else’s act and I’m reminded of one of my FAVE acts!

8 years ago, I had a hysterectomy.
Adenocarcinoma in situ of the cervix. That’s “Pre-cancer”
I had to remind my doctor to test again after suspicious results.
That’s why it was found and treated early!
PLEASE, friends with cervixes, get swabbed regularly! It could literally save your life!!!

Ok, I’ve seen some fellow rejectees of BHOF 2025, but I haven’t seen anyone post that they were accepted! I wanna know! Who’s performing?!?

I’m also bummed because getting in was the only way I’d consider going to BHOF this year. As a Canadian, I don’t feel it’s wise to travel to the US. I’m going to miss my annual “pilgrimage” and the friends that I only get to see there. I hope things get fixed soon to make it safer for ALL. 💙

I applied to BHOF this year with what I feel is my best work, and I got rejected. Yeah, I’m bummed and it’s hard to not feel like my best will never be “enough.” But logically I know that I am up against the best of the best and my chances were slim to begin with.

Congrats to all this who got their BHOF acceptance today!
To those that didn’t, try not to let it dishearten you.

How to get “in character” as your burlesque persona?
I had a student ask a great question: How do I remember to introduce myself with my stage name etc. when networking at shows/events?
My response will be in the reply to this…

If you're feeling overwhelmed, it's intentional. They're calling it "flooding the zone." The intent is to overwhelm and exhaust us so we can not effectively resist. Something simple you can do right now now is to make sure to take breaks and rest.

I’ve been involved burlesque for almost 20 years continuously. I feel like I’ve played a part in shaping the local scene. I’m proud of my contributions, and I also acknowledge that I have SO much more to learn and SO many people before me to honour.
