Oh how I wish it were true!

Dirty Martini is a national treasure, and we're lucky enough to have her here in NYC (most of the time). Honestly, every time I see her perform, it's electric. And how naughty are these homemade For Sale pasties? I shot this at the now-shuttered (and much missed) RiFiFi in August of 2006, I believe at a Starshine or Sweet & Nasty show. I'll bet I'm not the only one who wishes it were true!

Liitle Brooklyn's Richard Simmons hirsute pasties

Little Brooklyn cracks me up. She's the perfect blend of sexy burlesquer and comic relief. Also, best facial expressions ever. But this is a pasties blog, not facial expressions blog, so let's focus on these tremendous wonders. Little Brooklyn trotted these out at The Slipper Room in September of 2006. You hadda be there.
