    Default Want to Represent us on a Nationally Syndicated Talk Show

    I got this email in my box today:

    Hello,

    My name is Amanda and I'm an Associate Producer for a nationally syndicated talk show in NYC. I am working on a project that deals with mothers who working in the adult entertainment industry/exotic dancing in order to support their families. I came across your name in an article about a seminar you teach about how to become a "Super Stripper." I would love an opportunity to speak with you about your seminar and to see if you could help me find some mothers who dance to support their families. I can be reached at:646-638-5650I look forward to hearing from you soon.

    Sincerely,

    Amanda Erickson
    Associate Producer
    [email protected]
    646-638-5650


    I called Amanda back and it seems perfectly legitimate to me. I told her that I would post on here since we StripperWebbers have a tendency to be very skeptical of outsiders on this board. I promised I would not reveal the name of the show, but I'm dying to go!!! She is interviewing dancers who fit the above demographic and wants to film the show the first week of August. Airfare and accommodations will be provided (which leads me to believe that this is not a paid opportunity)

    Wow! What a fun opportunity! If I was "out" I'd totally jump on it! We want to go to NYC soon anyway.

    Why do they want mothers? That is the only thing that raises a flag for me.

    I'm guessing it's a way to make it more acceptable to the viewers. Basically a version of the old virgin/whore dichotomy. "Oh, these woman are okay because they are doing it for their kids, not for drugs or [insert stereotype about strippers here]." I can't decide if this is a good thing or a bad thing.

    I guess I am more cynical. I assumed it was to make us seem worse. I mean, who cares if a single girl is stripping, but a mother??? She must be a horrible mom!!!

    I guess I'm old-fashioned. I don't want strippers to be seen as regular people. I want us to retain our mystique as mythological sex creatures. I think all of our money will go down the tubes if everyone figures out that we're just regular girls in neon green mini dresses. Or what have you. I do not support the recent explosion of strippers in pop culture. It just waters down our customer base with sight-seers. Something like this could be a good marketing opportunity for the individuals involved, but I believe this sort of thing hurts the industry as a whole. Why on earth would we want to be seen as upstanding, normal, every day tax-paying moms? There's no mystery in that!

    I think ,of course, they're going to try to paint strippers in a negative light. (i.e., do your really have to strip? Couldn't you wait tables/get student loans/ go to your family instead of leaving your child to take off your clothes for money? What kind of example do you think you're setting for your kids???)

    The truth is its just another way to make a living, someplace between modeling and sales and its not really setting a bad example unless you're taking your kids to the club with you and showing them what you do. Its just like, "Mommy works nights. She gets to be home with the kids all day but she leaves in the evening, works hard, and comes home after you go to bed. Just like many other jobs. So for the moms- be forewarned, they're going to ask tough questions!

    Britney Ireland, I think its a good idea for you to represent us as dancers because you have a lot of integrity and you work hard. Plus its probably good publicity for your business.

    They don't want someone like Britney. They want to embarrass strippers. Nobody should do this unless they like being publicly humilated or having their time wasted (when it doesn't get aired because it's not sensational enough.)

    Maybe it's just me being skeptical but if it's legit why not reveal the name of the show.

    I do think that you are a great choice to represent women in the business in a positive light!

    I wish a show would be seen on mainstream TV that doesn't always portray strippers as "victims" of society who have to strip to keep food on the table and clothes on their childrens backs. I want to see a show protraying us as regular people who treat stripping as an 8-5 job.

    She posted this is a myspace group too. I too am skeptical if the show cant be revealed,and I doubt they will be sympathetic. And even if they are..I agree with Dottie...keep us mysterious naked women or the $$ goes downhill.

    So far every show is about a stripper that strips for drugs/etc or strippers that strip for their kids.

    What about strippers that strip because they want to be strippers?

    Anyway, why doesn't the email say what show this is, or did you take that out?

    The media swings between positive stories

    http://abcnews.go.com/GMA/story?id=1673807&page=1
    http://abcnews.go.com/Primetime/story?id=2395621&page=1

    and all the negatives.

    only time will tell. I won't mind an all expenses paid trip to NYC for someone to waste my time because I don't flip out or I'm too boring

    I whole heartedly agree with this! I couldn't have said it better myself. I don't want stripping to be more socially acceptable and yes the recent influx of media exposure has brought down the industry.

    The more mystique the more money we made, with less competition! I'm all for teaching current dancers that have the drive to develop better skills but attracting more women to enter the industry by portraying it as a profitable and responsible career choice, is not a good thing at all.

    You won't name the show but you'll go ahead and tell a whole bunch of media producers about this website?

    Eeeek, now I'm kinda scared if we'll be mentioned or if we'll be quoted from here now.

    It wouldn't take much effort for anyone from the media doing research on stripping to find us. If you don't want something to be public, you really shouldn't post it here. I've had an old blog quoted by the media before.
