The Beatles in 1957. George Harrison is 14, John Lennon is 16, and Paul McCartney is 15.

i know we just talked about sexy dancers but here are two more that are in a category of their own: Other (mexi)


i love this video so much. i love the super long belt, the song, the man in the hat with the sweet boots, how no one else is even paying attention, and how the sick moves of carlos are offset by the reserved subtlety of juan-julio. i want this to be me at every party.


okay, this is no where as good as number one, but i had to include it to prove that this is an actual patented dance style, not just one long, graceful accident.
also note:
the hair-do (+)
the RODEO shirt (+)
the return of the belt(+)
the absence of a worthy dance partner (-)


i like how this eerie danny elfman/ magic flute music in the beginning inspires the sexiest booty shake i've ever seen


i've also included the mexican talking heads for good measure.

what is your stripper song? (aka boner jamz '10)

kd fantasy recently asked me what my stripper/burlesque/lap dance song would be and I was totally stumped. she said she really liked the lap dance song from deathproof but didn't want to choose it as it was already in a movie. I haven't seen it yet so she sent me the video and I instantly got an uber boner. for those of you who haven't seen it:

damn. girl works it. I never knew khaki shorts and flip flops could be so sexy. then I decided I wanted my song to be some old soul southern song.


So, we decided for your (our) pleasure, we would put together a top 5 stripper song list. feel free to add to it.

1) this song belongs in a dark room where everybody is drinking beers and maybe some of them are doing dope. this is the lap dance song of a girl who is supremely sexy and slightly fucked up (from drugs, not from life) and she is giving a dance to a dude in a room full of other dudes but only has eyes for her recipient.


2) this is a classic in dingy strip clubs in small towns (I'm guessing, as I've never been to a dingy strip club in a small town). this is the stripper dance of a white trash-y in her late 20s who kills it with this song despite being a mother of two where most of the audience is dads and one of them realizes the stripper was his daughters bff when they were in 5th grade.


3) it's not as cool as the oldies but it's a different vibe. this is the lap dance song of a slutty white hipster girl who grew up on the wrong side of the tracks and all the rich girls want to be her friend but will never be as cool as she is. or as slutty. (well maybe as slutty).


4) this is what kd says about this one: this song makes me want to have a 70s party were everyone is a little stoned and makes out. this is the stripper song of a not-ghetto black girl who is cute and short and VERY curvy but owns it.


5) ahh, the cougar. according to mr jones, the cougar is "the most hunted animal of all the creatures." and if she was giving a lapdance, this is definitely what she would dance to.



feel free to add any songs you think would be good to strip to. but they better be boner-inducing.

the best ayn rand description I've ever read

from the comment section from a post (inadvertently) about ayn rand on my celeb goss fave, ohnotheydidnt. this comment was a response to someone saying (in response to someone saying they weren't into the fact that this celeb said the fountainhead and atlas shrugged changed their life) "i haven't bothered to read any of her books or ~philosophies~...can someone explain why so many people seem to hate her?"

stellarlullaby : Hopefully literary geniuses won't jump on me, but her philosophies amount to: If you aren't self-serving to the point of being a social outcast, you're fake. Charities isn't really worth it because charity isn't a "moral duty", people exist only for their own pleasure. Believe in nothing other than yourself, not government, not religion, nothing. Rational to the point where it's truly pedantic and stupid. FYI: They support the "Tea Party" movement and that the government shouldn't regulate anything, like even making sure medicine is safe and shit.

I always think it's stupid, I've read several of her books and it makes me a little upset each time. While I get that being an individual is important, but I think she takes it too far. She had some fucked up complex because she was Russian and her family was angry about having their wealth taken by commies (because they were well off while everyone around them was starving). In the end, she had a valid point that government shouldn't control speech like communist Russia, and while I understand why she left, I think she was one of those people who didn't understand a happy medium in government intervention.

Either way, I think she's a self-serving, bitter bitch and people who like her normally have no real view on life other than an incredibly sheltered one where they think her way of life would work. She's often reference by people who are argumentative and "unique" to the point of being asses. All the fans of her writing I've encountered have been the most aggravating, ignorant people, usually hipster kids trying to sound smart.

aynrand.org has more info on her.
