    Default Nervous To Apply and Audition Because of Tummy fat? Help???....

    Hello beautiful ladies, So I'm ready to audition and I KNOW I can get up on the stage and look and act sexy and sensual, but the ONLY thing stopping me is my little bit of tummy fat..that's right a little pudge. I don't have a huge fat belly or anything it's really no more than a pinch of fat but still I want to look my best and earn as much as I can. Not saying that women who are thicker are not good earners, but it really makes me insecure and I'm just scared I won't be attractive. I want to audition at Baby Dolls in Hopewell, VA it's not a upscale club but not really a dive either. The manager told me on the phone that he hires girls of all sizes, I was cool as long as my tummy didn't lap over my thong or shorts lol and you don't neccesarily have to have the body of Beyonce' lol. But even though the manager says it's okay, I still feel like I might look stupid and unnatractive on stage in front of the customers. So I guess my real questions are 1. Should I go ahead and bite the bullet and audition and begin making money? 2.Do customers typically care if a dancer has a little fat on her tummy? and 3. Will dancing help me lose my little pudge and are there any workouts or excercises that helped you ladies tone your midsection?

    I had some body issues when I first started out and had that extra fat in the tummy area....You'll get over it REALLY quick. Those high high heels make you look skinnier anyway. You'll hear how gorgeous/hot/perfect you are from customers all the time. SOME guys might be jerks but they're either just bitter toward women or want to get a rise out of you. 99% of the time you'll just hear how hot you are from the men. Plus you'll lose weight and tone up really fast especially if you start doing pole tricks. You'll be fine! Go for it

    when i first thought about auditioning, i was terrified and convinced i needed to lose weight, even though i was 110 pounds at 5'5. i just thought ( like lots of civilian girls) that strippers were all these tan, skinny, big-chested 90s glittery pornstar-looking creatures that i couldnt' possibly measure up to. its not like that. yes you should look your best and do what makes you confident, but i would suggest going to audition as soon as you can. as long as you are reasonably attractive and do your hair/makeup and be confident and flirty, you'll be fine. you aren't obese.

    Women aren't supposed to have flat concave stomachs. We have uteruses etc that need to be protected by some fat. Don't worry about it!

    Keep in mind, that customers like curvy girls. Having said that, if you want to change your look for yourself and not for the job, then dancing will help you tone up. But if you want the low bodyfat percentage that 6 pack abs demand, you will have watch your diet very closely. I use MyFitnessPal.com to track my eating and calories, and it has helped me maintain a very low bodyfat percentage for 2 years now.

    But don't let a few womanly curves deter you from going into dancing. Guys really do like it.

    I have a bit of a pooch. It's been with me whether I weigh 150 or 110. Now only one club had an issue with it, which really fucked with me but I'm doing something about it. Bust your abs everyday working out. Eat right. As long as your stomach doesn't stick out further than your tits you're good.

    If the manager already told you he accepts girls of all sizes and you're not terrible looking, you probably have this!

    Once you gain more experience in the industry you'll probably find that managers (especially in upscale clubs) are a million times harsher than customers. So many seem completely out of touch with actual preferences. Of course men like Barbies, but they also like curvy and thick and all the bumps that go along with it. I was probably a borderline hire at one upscale club because I have really thick thighs, a big ass, and a small pooch but as soon as I hit the floor customers were raving about how nice it was to see something different and backed up their praise with $$$. Count your blessings that this manager gets it!

    Just go in and be confident. If you're not hired, it might not actually be your body, it might be that you seemed too nervous.

    At my thinnest I was poochy mcpooch but I held in mind that guys are too busy looking at the T and A to notice. Never once did anyone comment on it. As for toning it, yeah dancing and pole tricks helped but mine never disappeared completely. I guess I have a healthy "childbearing" figure that some men are innately attracted to!

    Unfortunately managers are the gatekeepers. At the Hustler in NOLA I got a damn good stage and still got told my stomach was no bueno for nights. My advice to you is to fix your problem. If you're uncomfortable with it they can sense it.
