i arrived nearly naked

ooh la la allo allo! ready for my fitting?

f’n right maureen you pro!

oh you peeping toms.

back we come from cloud9 where i addressed the clientele in the room and asked their opinion on my beige vs black fishnets. the beige fishnets (italian) are actually from nearly naked, i wore them to show maureen my commitment to her and also, i was thinking of getting a beige matching set w/garters. the black ones won.

maureen got me in this lil number. you’ll see.

want these!

uh this is a hardware feature too?

i look like a swedish minnie mouse. when i can figure out how to wear falsies maybe i’ll get minnie ears and make a dance, there’s an amazing boustier that matches these bottoms.

wonder if colleague made a shopping list for his wife.

we were discussing my shorts from the bettie page store in san diego and she said she carried this lingerie set when she first opened, all sold out immediately. telling ya sisters, there’s something to this burlesque thing.

SO CUTE! AGH!

maureen was such great help i barely had to think. i look gross, no makeup, i wanted to look nice for these photos but didn’t have the time to spare and rehearsing all day in the heat, no point to shower til i’m absolutely ready to go.

who is getting hor-y?

it was a close call but i wanted to get proper retro bottoms for my first go around so the other troupe wouldn’t be mean to me. it happens.

i like eccentrics, people into the sex world always seem to be, no? free spirits. deep. nostalgic.

gahaha speaking of eccentrics nice jackie o. i love the wizard curtain too. a lot.

this boutique is a joy to shop in. this is the top of maureen’s desk.

in the event of another wardrobe malfunc. this brassiere works cos it’s still a bit of peekaboo to titillate if i don’t remove my top. did i tell you that a bachelor party hired me to dance for them at the hard rock but i pulled out cos i chickened out about it. that has bad news written all over it. we made friends with this nice crew of dudes and one huge guy agreed to be my bodyguard. would have made a hundred more bucks than i did for my night at tattoo, which i think was pretty generous too. ka-ching step ball change tap tap aaaaand curtsy.

the italian stockings are amazing in quality, very strong, no holes or runs yet.

i had burlesque tunnel vision so i didn’t get to browse as much as i’d have liked so i am very grateful for these shots. butt cleavage undies are my current favourite flirty bottoms.

now this is more like it.

practicing my dance. the lingerie had to be able to fit beneath this dress.

this is how i convinced maureen that i was awesome.

if you want my bottoms go get a pair and say raymi sent you (BIG DISCOUNT ;)).

maureen and i will be collaborating much like lady gaga and her stylist, astrid kilcher and the beatles, warhol and edie. BABOOM! there’s one more i was thinking of i keep forgetting. hmm. oh i need a dress for a huge celebrity gala i’m attending (and bringing tracey the minx as my date) this thursday. teeming with VIPs. fashionista blogger, designers whomever, get in on this OPPORTUNITY. can i say who’s hosting it yet colleague?

haha i look ridiculous…LY AWESOME!

i will use this to parody the iconic pamela anderson cleavage cascading hair forward playboy shoot when i have time, also, i need a playboy bunny suit.

sometimes when teacher and i are goofing around and he zings me too hard i put my hands on my hips like this, begin raising my left leg and declare HAVE YOU EVER BEEN KICKED BY A NAKED PERSON BEFORE? ahaha it looks crazy, and is semi-scary. like, a naked guy smiling. ew no don’t smile! what are you doing? stop that!

i also have a dominatrix true story up for grabs for any racy publication out there wanting it as an exclu$ive, starring yours truly of course.

ok, so we’re starting a wish list right meow.

and if my weird day-lit sam crenshaw face startled you here it is again smaller.

speaking of sam crenshaw how much am i totally him?

titanic moment, she was like, do it for the money, our name is all we have.

wish list. i’m down to 120lbs now. what is happening! i gained an inch in height too. 5’9. just saying.

and we have a winner. when and where and how soon can i next wear this? i wore it with my shorts actually. done and done.

hot hot euro garters.

everything on me and what i am holding is what i walked with. very satisfied customer.

nice blink.

these please!

need all the help i can get in the chest. garters are so hot.

sometimes we don’t need to say anything.

this’ll do. yes the garters snapped look better, sexier. war time. prepare for battle.

i literally stopped traffic. no bragging. factual.

hello men. wave.

the girls walking up went silent.

here they come.

thanks maureen you sweetheart godsend! we are taking turns kissing each other’s butts. she said i must have been an angel sent to her. AWW! she is so dope and will help a sista out don’t be shy to pop in there. vey pro-fem. oxox

she also knows about every eccentric in the hood. love that.

happy monday friends, make it a good one!

much love,

your pal raymi.

well welcome to wonderland

amazing night. i am exhausted from it but still coasting and ready for more. don’t expect this post to be as verbose as my regular fare of uh, fare.

my mom’s dress just so happened to match the dress i performed in.

starlight burlesque dressed the stage.

my mom made lois and i pose like this all night long with our matching rings. mom are you twelve?

lil miss kate killet was my assistant/point girl. job well done girl.

tim and i have been tight buddies since i was 21 and insane, longboarding buddy from oakville. he was the jealousy trap i set when it was down to he or my ex fiance. it worked, fuck, look at him. haha look at my stage mom behind me too.

walking around in my one piece was super empowering. i recommend it.

the vipeople.

tarek, we need to talk (dish). BOOM catch-up with april stat!

surround yourselves with cute people at all times possible.

i don’t remember all the burlesque girl names but they were so fantastic. everyone thoroughly enjoyed this.

positively packed.

look at this man. this man is a genius. his bags make me look so good. thank you infinity.

my colleague must be counting his lucky stars he ever met me hey ahaha. yesterday afternoon we spent a good time with maureen at nearly naked, locked him alone in there even while she and i grabbed coffee. it’s located right across the street from where my nude scene was filmed in those lofts and i think he lined a shot up, bragged about it, i go yeah your business brain cogs musta been rotating at mach ten by that stroke fluke of luck hey? i constantly break his balls i am such a delight to work with.

YES MONEY SHOT! i am bummed mine didn’t stay on. what if i get a dental floss pasty contraption set-up?

this chick was doing a total von teese (esther deville?) thing and at the end of the night we had a sultry limo shoot and she french inhaled all over the place. then clem paid the driver to take us for a spin and dropped us off at salvador darling, me my mom lois teacher clem and i it was wild. so fun. so many photos i don’t know where to begin so i’m starting here and doing cliffs notes before i forget.

seeing the wasted crowd deterioration totally calmed me down, they won’t have any idea what’s going on by the time i hit the stage. perfect.

yeah i could get used to dressing like this again. steering toward pin-up. wedges, teeny shorts. just picked up some new cute things from public butter after brunch at the caddy just now. i love hungover hair of the dog vintage shopping. the music was so abstract and terrifying, i found everything hilarious and now i have gold raybans, a wicked little vest, baby pink gauzy nightie to dance in and swingin’ sixties dress.

the fans were added last minute. i’ll do the dance and film it so you can see it properly if you want then i’ll retire it for use only if by request and if paid otherwise we’ll be going to the psych ward if we hear shake shake shake senora ever again. a lot of dudes told me i made their night, one of the security guards. i am so dumb for not speaking to edwin. he tried to cruise me once and i didn’t go for it. there’s a notorious story about him though so maybe it was a good idea. aw poor celebs, everyone knows your spot and blows it up.

she was adorable and i should have been wearing a headpiece like her. i couldn’t wear anything in my hair cos my headband would fly off and barrettes, i ran out of time to curl it and also didn’t have time for false eyelashes. next time i’ll be sure of it.

nice one.

i love her routine. i put her video up the other day.

would you be nervous to dance in front of all these people?

a girl came up to me afterward (hi) and said she wants to do what i do, which is exactly how i approached my old troupe. she has dance experience and balls, that’s all it takes. none of these chicks were alive in the 60’s or 40’s so it’s every girl for ‘emself recreating what their perception of burlesque should embody, i of course have my own spin on it and everyone else can sincerely go fuck themselves if they have a problem with it. also, marketing is more than half the work here so you can be amazing but if you don’t have the spark or the audience, you know, it’s a lot of work. hype is necessary.

see we match. this always happens. mom how do you do this all the time? happens with melodie and i sometimes too as well as an old friend of mine. cosmic cuckoo kismet.

i can’t tell if this was before or after cos my hair was various stages of wild and more than one person asked if was doing anything with it. nope. just watch. i let it dry naturally and it has a kink to it so it works plus my dance is a spazz attack number there is no point in trying to maintain beauty when you’re having fun and dancing with your people at your free bottle service vip table. dudes you also forgot to tip our waitress, i covered it but come on you can’t do that self-entitled shit to me, poor form.

some people were cuttin’ loose and celebrating their set as they should have. i said to hanna that it (burlesque) might make her horny and she goes i’m already horny! ahahah. burlesque is a perfect date night activity and my friend said the party in the distillery last year for the red light district campaign i did with lexus (or was it nissan? bahaha) but anyway it brings the wildcat out in women so he said all the women were aroused big time and every dude got laid that night GUARANTEED.

can’t wait to see the limo shots. oh boy.

what is going on here?

oh it’s me!

oh hai there.

why didn’t you use the flash dude??

one girl was sitting on the fucking stage so i fanned her a lot and singled her out to work with it. rude. get off my stage before i mariah carey your ass on out of here.

baha that guy is studying me and the girl beside him is like screaming.

minxing the horny mob.

going to burnoutington to see my daddy! so more later from there, bon weekend!

your pal raymi.

(mom get your pics up!)

omg i can’t wait to blog the nn shopping pictures.

i lost a pasty to the crowd but i ruled!

turn it down. teacher was right by the speaker. i made a whole dance in less than 24 hours. i need a nipple pasty solution though, for the sweat and my skin’s refusal to adhere the glue by, i was told spirit gum over eyelash glue. we were at capacity, full room tonight and it was so cool. i was the headlining act. i am hungry for more performances now so if you want me to put a showcase together for any event, whether it be girly or a bachelor party, social media pr, i’ll take care of everything: photos, costumes, routines to any song you like. RAYMI@RAYMITHEMINX.COM ask anyone there tonight. knocked it out of the park. my feet are dying they need advil this is like working at a bar, takes hours to sleep afterward and also how i got fat. any girls with a dancing background and want to pg rated-strip, get at me. we’re starting a troupe. oxxoxo i never want hear this song again hahaha.

ended the night at adventurehouse. so fun! we pulled up in a limo!

after a photoshoot ON IT with the other burlesque girls. sexy.

when i threw my bra off my left pasty disappeared. a security guard gave me his flashlight but i couldn’t find it. wahh so expensive.

love my girls and EVERYONE who came tonight. expect a lot of coverage even my lingerie try on at nearly naked today. lifesaver maureen you angel! she said i was an angel sent to her. oh you! see my and lois and mom’s mathching bling rings. we are obsessed.

i LOVE this one piece. with love by carrie russell. one left go grab it. if you mention my name you can snatch up the garter black lace bottoms i have on discount. they are very flattering and comfortable.

ok night.

so rehearsal is going well

this was really painful ahaha. smashed the bridge of my nose super hard and fast. i lost my breath, then i go to the laptop to turn off the music i wheeze out stop filming, he didn’t. this is not the dress i’m performing in, also i’m wearing a jumper beneath so that’s why it’s a bit rumply, i didn’t get a chance to strip down to it cos of the maraca massacre. picking up my lingerie tomorrow (have my selected store and an appointment for a fitting i am excited) and will settle on my final dress too. i plan to have a costume change or two while milling about and flirting in character. it’s going to be a great time. i can’t wait to see you all.
