    Thumbs up Who's going to Nudes-A-Poppin next month??

    I'm finally going this year, it's actually in about 3 weeks or so. I'm sorta excited but also have read all the posts I could find on it, and I've read quite a few girls that said they didn't have such a great time & wouldn't attend again.

    Since I'm trying to get titles & credits so I can start feature dancing, I figured this year, fuck it, I'm going. I'm going to do the Miss Nude North American Pageant & the Miss Rising Star contest. And I'm also gonna have a booth with all my own personal website advertisement and posters, etc.

    Are any of you girls going?? I don't know anyone and am just taking a guy friend with me to keep me company.

    Also, to anyone who has competed in the Rising Star: they give you 10 minutes, only 2 minutes have to be nude to put on your performance. I have NO feature costume, NOR am i gonna go invest in one just for a 10 minute contest. Can I just use a cheapo costume (if i can find one) or just do like a candy or something that'd be free for me to do, just I'd make it into some sort of performance.

    Thanks and fuck me, sorry this turned into so long!
    I'm going to go look for hotels rooms now. If anyone has a hotel recommendation that is right by the club, please message me

    Thanks girlies

    I live maybe an hour from there and doubt I'll go again. To be honest I met a lot of fantastic people (people in the industry mostly, but a few people who were members of the nudist club) but met some really scumballs. Keep in mind that you sign away your rights and they can use your image for videos and the website.

    My experience was this. While I did get some modeling jobs from this, I also got somewhat depressed. I didn't win anything and there was a group on men who were pretty nasty to me.

    I live literally down the road from there. I think I may go and watch it, since I will know someone who is competing! Your best bet for hotels would be in Merrilville, which is about 30 minutes from there. There is nothing by the "club"--it is a nudist camp out in the woods! PM me if you want to.

    Kellydancer--where are you? I live near Kankakee.

    I too live near Kankakee (well, 20 minutes away). I live close to the Kankakee/Will County border on the south and about 7 miles from the Cook/Will County border. Maybe we've met before.

    Thanks to everyone who posted...I'm really excited to go (i think) lol!



    I am thinking of staying half hour or so north of there, that way I can check out the casinos at nighttime. Kind of a weekend vacation, as well as working.

    After reading all the other threads & posts of this topic, there were alot of girls who thought these contests were all rigged (sp?) & that just the same agency girls were winning everything. That's pretty shady shit if that's true, & it very well could be. Nothing surprises me. So, that part makes me wonder if it's really going to be worth it. Oh well, if nothing else, hopefully, I'll make some contacts and get my website promotional items out to a few people.

    Anyone have any thoughts on my original post regarding the feature outfit or performance I could do for cheap?

    Thanks alot

    I can't speak for sure, but I got the feeling it was rigged. I say that because one of the girls who wins every year has for as long as I went. This particular winner has appeared in videos and magazines long before she started winning these contests. There's a guy who's won something like 10 years in a row.

    As for costumes, I think it varies. I did an harem girl dance. Another did a 50's dance with a poodle skirt.

    Keep in mind that they will take photos and those photos will always be out there. I often wonder if I'll ever see photos of me there because I was asked to do one of the feature perfomances in the beginning.

    I live the other way, toward Indiana. I bet we have met--how funny would that be? There cant be that many of us around here.

    I encouraged the OP to go to WATCH the first year. I think competing without seeing this first is not really a good idea in my opinion.

    As for the costume, you could throw something together for sure, & if you are going to compete you better do that & you REALLY better make sure your choreography is awesome. This isn't house dancing, keep that in mind.

    In terms of the photos, cameras will be everywhere! Expect people to be taking tons of photos, expect them to end up online, expect many to be unflattering, expect the photographers to not care about editing them. Sorry, but in terms of things that are glamorous, NAP really falls low on that scale. I think its a fabulous way to get your name out there, but it's a much different crowd than most other pageants. You have far more people than most pageants, but you are also shown in full sun light, in the heat with sweat pouring down if its too hot, & cameras shooting as much "pink" as they can get... which gets posted all over. The good thing is that most of the unflattering photos probably won't have your name listed as a credit. Now the bad news is that Google & a few others are working on facial recognition programs. When these get released it will totally change our industry... & all of those unflattering photos are likely to get indexed with your name along with the rest of the images on the web. Call me a control freak if you will, but it's not my cup of tea.

    By the way, did you try following up with agents again like I suggested? Any luck?

    Kelly, who are you talking about that "always wins"? I'm wondering if it's someone I know.

    Yes, I probably should go watch, but then i think what the heck, I'm here, I might as well try it. When I don't win anything & come back on here bitching about it, just ignore me and say "i told ya to watch!" LOL! I guess I feel I have everything the next girl has, & I would have a good shot at hopefully placing. Who knows what will happen by then, but by the photos I've seen of the winners, I'm thinking in my head, they don't have shit on me. lol! yes, im a confident biatch. Maybe I will end up as a spectator, but doubt it

    Yes, I have contacted over & over one of them, and he finally asked for my number, but has yet to call me I have sent follow-up e-mails over and over to diff agents also, and never hear one word

    Thanks for the post

    We may have even danced at the same clubs. That would be funny. Have you danced at many Northwest Indiana clubs? I did at a few.

    Kelly, who are you talking about that "always wins"? I'm wondering if it's someone I know.
    It very well could be someone you know. I'm not sure if I want to reveal her full name in public but I could pm you her name. I have no issue with her winning just seems rather odd because one year she was announced as a celeb guest and the next year as a winner.

    That Google recognition technology is terrifying. I am scared my modeling work will show up. Oddly, I searched for anything on Nudes-A-Poppin and nothing of me came up. For those who don't know NAP has a lot of "guy with cameras" that are always mentioned. A guy that I knew years ago used to go to take photos to later masturbate with. I've heard other guys often used them for various other reasons.

    I think I auditioned at Honey's (that's in Gary, right?) but never worked there. I auditioned at Rising Sun but was more interested in being management so they never called me back. I did work at the previous club there called Scuttlebutt that was a yucky dive. I worked at One Step as well if that's the one in Melrose Park, but that I didn't like too much. You had to climb stairs and go upstairs and give them money along with the agency (this was years ago maybe they don't use agencies now). Romeoville you must have worked at Crazy Rock? They offered me a job but I then went to another club (now defunct). Club O I auditioned at but got creepy feelings towards and not sure why. Maybe it was the manager and how I felt he was leering at me. You know what's sad though? Almost every club I worked at is now defunct. I think two clubs I worked at are still around: Jimmy's and Our Dolls.

    Question Re: Who's going to Nudes-A-Poppin next month??

    Ok, so i spent under 100$ and bought a schoolgirl outfit for my 10 minute set. It has the itty bitty school skirt w/the tie-top, i bought white knee highs to match and black mary jane pleasers. It's a super sexy adorable outift, so i'm very pleased and i didn't have to pay a forture for it.

    BUT......I do know in feature acts, audience interaction is very important and keeping it an interesting show. Well, yes, now i have the entire outfit and i picked out my 3 songs im gonna use to dance to, but i need to somehow include the audience into it.

    My thoughts were wearing a ton of candy bracelets and candy necklaces with my outfit, and handing them out to the guys who were watching me, etc. trying to make it more fun...

    Has anyone else done schoolgirl for a feature act & do you have any other ideas to include the audience? If not, I'll prob just go with the candy idea.


    Anyways, I havent choreographed any dance to the 3 songs, and not sure i'm going to invest in that, its 35$ for a 1on1 prvt dance session. I'm prob just gonna practive at home and have it come natural.

    If anyone has competed and has any words of wisdom, I could def use it right now or any ideas or how i can involve the audience using my schoolgirl outfit.

    Thanks, sorry this turned out long had to get all my thoughts out..LOL!

    Schoolgirl works. I was going to say in fact there is an outfit company not far from there and I know strippers who have gotten school uniforms there.

    I just looked and it's about 39 miles or 45 minutes from me. Maybe I can see if I can get a friend to go just to watch you Ohiogirl (and clap so hopefully you win!)

    I'm sure there will be a 100 schoolgirls competing...LOL! I highly doubt its that unique of an idea, but for me, it was the cheapest route i could think of.

    What do you girls think about the candy necklaces? Is there any other ideas your girls have to incorporate the audience? It's really the only thing i can think of...

    And woohoo! thanks for clapping for me! this is the first actual contest for title i've done, and whats really wierd is i'm not even nervous. lol...i'm just thinking positive, and even if i come home with nothing, i'm sure it'll be quite a different experience then what i've ever seen.

    I've gotta get Ron Jeremy and Bree Olsen's autographs...LMFAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    HOLY SHITHOLES!!!!

    I knew that all contestants were free BUT i had NO CLUE that bringing a person with me, they have to pay $60 per day or $110 for both days! WOW!

    I thought that was fairly pricey. This trip is definately starting to be a burden financially. UGH....not what i wanted to happen. lol!

    Here, i was trying to do this the cheapest way possibly, and now i'm adding everything up, and i'm still paying quite a bit for this upcoming weekend. I guess it's the price you pay in order to go after what you want. If i walk away with nothing, i have to admit i will be a bit peeved that i wasted all this money.

    The expenses just keep piling up. lol. FML!

    Just thought I'd share, I didn't know if any of you realized how friggin expensive it is just to walk in the door?!?!

    I didn't know that. When I went years ago my friend was free. Not just that but they had free beverages all day for the competitors. That's a lot of money for someone.

    Yeah, I thought it was awfully high too. I actually have been thinking if I really want to spend all this money or not.....the costs are outweighing the good as of right now:*(

    The cost is high because it's used to offset the expenses for the club the remainder of the year.

    Not at night...that's when the stars have rather better things to do. They're coming out, shining, that sort of thing.

    Hey girls,

    Thanks to everyone who answered to this thread. After alot of thought, I cancelled my hotel reservations and decided this trip was going to cost me more than I would get out of it. Gas prices are so high right now, toll roads, $200 hotel, on and on and on and on.....It was going to end up costing me quite a bit. As much as I'd love to compete and win or place in some categories, I just don't see where the benefits would have paid off.

    Good Luck to everyone, and thanks for the few of you that were going to cheer me on

    Have a great weekend girls!!! xoxoxo
