Two German policemen were shocked last week after they were mistaken for strippers while investigating a noise complaint.
When the two officers visited a house in Bremen, they were greeted by a group of women with cries of "the strippers are here". Before they could explain they were genuine police officers, the two men were surrounded by the group of "very interested" women
As any male stripper could attest, there is nothing more frightening than a pack of drunken, sexually excited women. Fortunately, before the horny women managed to tear off their uniforms the two terrified officers managed to show their badges and prove they were real policemen.
After they had calmed down, the shaken policemen persuaded the women to turn their music down and left them to wait for the real strippers.





Last month we reported that religious nutters in America had attacked pop tart Jessica Simpson over her raunchy new promo, branding her a 'stripper' and a 'whore. Now the singer has hit back.
Simpson claims the retarded and insulting comments by members of cranky religious group The Resistance are exactly why she gave up a career as a Christian singer.
Simpson, who is a pastor's daughter, revealed: "It didn't really surprise me because I grew up with a lot of that backlash. That's why I didn't end up going into the Christian music industry. I think that if they're really good Christians the judgement wouldn't be there."
The Resistance had demanded the singer re-shoot a "clean" version of the "slutty" video for her cover of These Boots Were Made For Walkin'. The clip features the Dukes of Hazzard star seductively washing a car in a skimpy pink bikini. '






It's been a 'will they, won't they/" story for the last few weeks, but it seems that
Barrow WILL finally be getting its lap dancing club, despite the objections of local idiots and prudes.
Magistrates yesterday granted Evolution Entertainments Ltd a licence for the old Bluebird Club on Holker Street. The appeal overturned an earlier decision from Barrow Borough Council's licensing committee, who had twice rejected the plans on the dubious justification of public disorder grounds, and justifies the advice of chief environmental health officer Gary Ormondroyd, who recommended The Bluebird Club be approved.
He told the committee the council could not object to the application on the grounds of the potential for public nuisance or disorder arising from the entertainment. He said they could also not legally refuse the application for the potential for fear of harm to children.





A
photographer accused of blackmailing actress Cameron Diaz has been convicted in the US.
John Rutter, 42, could be jailed for up to six years after being found guilty in a Los Angeles court of forgery, attempted grand theft and perjury.
In 2003, he attempted to sell the photos, taken 11 years earlier, back to her for $3.5m (£2m).
Rutter had told the actress he was giving her "first refusal" to buy the photos taken when she was an unknown teenage model, presenting her with an allegedly forged model release form. If she did not buy them, he said he would offer the photos for sale worldwide.
Rutter denied that he had forged Ms Diaz's signature on the release form. However, he accepted the signature was probably not real (what a fool - any professional photographer would ensure that releases are signed right away). He was charged with theft over the alleged blackmail scheme, and perjury for testifying that the signature was authentic.
Ms Diaz, 32, said in court she had never signed a release form for the shoot. A permanent injunction has been issued prohibiting Rutter from distributing the picture. He is scheduled to be sentenced on 15 September.
Disturbingly, The LA district lawyer's office is now considering the possibility of bringing conspiracy charges against agencies or individuals who orchestrate photo ambushes. They are also looking into whether the dogged pursuit of celebrities by the paparazzi constitutes a crime. Now, while we have no love of the paps - or the people who read the magazines they feed - but the idea that Hollywood celebs should have some special right of privacy - except when they decide that it's in their interest to be spread across the pages of Hello - seems dubious to us.





Fans of recently revived hair metal band Motley Crue can now play a striptease game online. The game requires viewers to control a 'heat meter' by continually pressing Z and X keys - the longer the keep in under control, the more stripping video they get to see, and high scores will be entered in a contest to win prizes.
The stripper in question who is grinding away and slowly undressing to Girls, Girls, Girls is none other than big-boobed Brit porn yokel Cathy Barry, which can be taken as either recommendation or warning, depending on your tastes.
You can access the game here.
Fans can get Motley Crue - Greatest Video Hits and their sleazy autobiography The Dirt by clicking on the links.









Belgian investors have bought the famed Crazy Horse night club in Paris and plan to export its erotic shows around the world. The Belgians paid an undisclosed sum to the three heirs of 1951 founder Alain Bernardin, according to media investor Philippe Lhomme.
The Crazy Horse - alongside the Moulin Rouge and Folies Bergeres - is one of Paris' most famopus erotic revues, featuring semi-nude dancers in spectacular - if somewhat antiseptic -shows. "It is an extraordinary brand that can be developed further. It has power and an aura, and it has been around for 50 years," Lhomme told the Brussels newspaper Le Soir. He plans to open a Crazy Horse show in Singapore this year and subsidiaries in other countries later. There has been a Crazy Horse in Las Vegas since 2001 in a joint venture with MGM Mirage.





Naked rambler Stephen Gough - who last year was arrested 14 times and served two prison sentences during a trek from Land's End to John O'Groats - was again been arrested, along with girlfriend Melanie Green and chum Jeffrey Woodhouse as they reached Wem, Shropshire on their 887 mile nude walk. It's the first time they've been arrested on this journey.
West Mercia Police arrested the trio after a complaint from a humourless member of the public. "We had a call from a member of the public that there were some naked people near Wem. When we found them we asked them to cover up, but they refused. We had no choice but to arrest them" said a police spokeman somewhat disingenuously. After all, public nudity is not illegal if not intended to cause offence or distress, and an arrest was not legally required.
Green agreed to dress for her appearance at Shrewsbury Magistrates' Court but the two men refused and magistrates had to hear the case in the cells with the naked men. All three quite rightly denied a charge of causing a breach of the peace and
have been asked to return to court in Shrewsbury on 15 August.

In the summer of 2004,
28 years old Tommy Hol Ellingsenand his 21-year-old girlfriend Leona Johansson made an unexpected appearance at a Norwegian rock festival when they were called on stage by Cumshots singer Kristopher Schau. The couple, who are part - or possibly the entirety - of an ecological group called Fuck For Forest, asked the 4000 strong crowd "How far are you willing to go to save the world?" before performing a vigorous ten minute live sex show.
Public sex is strictly illegal in Norway and so the rumbling legal apparatus soon swung into action. The couple were arrested and fined 10,000 Kroner each. They refused to pay the police-imposed fine and so faced a full court case which finally took place this month.
The couple were found guilty of conducting an improper act in a public place and fined £800 each. Ellingsen then dropped his trousers before the judge and the couple fled to Germany. Now relocated in Berlin, Ellingsen told Der Speigel: "What we do is about sexual joy, and about freedom of expression. That's not porn - it's people having sex together. If people would just be more open about sexuality, there wouldn't be so many problems in the world."

Former stripper and model Karin Eloff has become the first woman to edit South Africa's most successful homegrown adult magazine.
She takes over with the September issue of the tongue-twisting Loslyf, and also appears on the cover, with a nude spread inside.
Keen to prove that she's not just a figurehead editor (as has often been the case with UK models who 'edit' porn mags) she explained to newsmen who she is already a published writer. "The first book I wrote was a novel, and the second is an exposô on the stripping industry in this country... what it is really like. I am hoping to get that published soon."
Eloff started stripping at 25. "I had a degree in psychology but the only jobs I got were in banks and with corporate companies. I hated it. In Stellenbosch, I taught belly dancing to students before moving to Cape Town to work in a popular strip club. I worked very, very long hours and, yes, I made lots of money."
She is not planning on making drastic changes to the magazine: "I would like to use more local girls and also lighter feature articles. It was becoming too serious and intellectual. I don't think the people who buy Loslyf are interested in reading a story about abortions. So I have changed that little bit. We are going to concentrate on much lighter stories, such as how couples can give each other sensual massages and how to give good oral sex."
She also expressed surprise at why her appointment is news and how conservative South African women are. "It aggravates me that women here are so ashamed of their vaginas. Just deal with it. It is perfectly okay to think it's beautiful. A lot of those women who think the magazine is smut are just afraid of revealing their own insecurities."





A young woman has been entertaining the shoppers and workers on Manchester's Tib Street by streaking every Friday.
Wearing 'nothing but a pair of trainers and a scorpion tattoo', 29 year old Andrea Hall down the street at the same time for the last three Fridays. As word spread, an expectant audience grew for her performances. Talking to the Manchester Evening News, shop worker mark Radcliffe said
"I've seen her a few times now. News of what she had been doing got around. A crowd of about 50 people were waiting to see her last Friday with their camera phones ready to get a picture. A lot of workmen showed up because they are building some flats nearby. No-one knows who she is or why she is doing it and they're too stunned to watch where she goes afterwards.
" It's all very light-hearted with people laughing and joking,"
he said. "People seem pleased to see her, I don't think anyone is offended. Tib Street must be the place to be. I'd like to see a lot more of it myself!"
Greater Manchester Police said they hadn't received any complaints about the streaker, who remained a mystery until her photo appeared in the press.
Hall explained "I felt so helpless after the London bombings and I just wanted to bring a smile to people's faces. This was my way of expressing my freedom."
UPDATE: She has now called an end to her lunchtime jogs, despite a large crowd gathering this Friday and offers of support from other would-be streakers. In the end, the public had to make do with a handful of topless models from Zoo Weekly.
Anyone out there got more photos you'd care to share with us?





Wood Green club Charlie Brown's has been forced to stop offering pole dancing and stripping after a campaign of bigotry and misinformation by local campaigners, opportunistic politicians and church groups.
Owners Hasan Burmali and Hasan Fikret went to Tottenham Magistrates' Court to contest a decision taken by councillors in February which banned the dancers. But magistrates disgracefully backed the decision by the council that the club was offensive to users and visitors to St Michael's Church, the Civic Centre, a neighbouring sheltered housing complex and local residents. None of these people were forced to see the activities within the club, but it seems that it's very existence was enough to cause offence. What a shame we can't have small-minded churches closed for causing offence to right-minded individuals.
Smug Haringey Councillor Nilgun Canver said: "This is a good, common sense decision. Clearly the venue was unpopular with residents and the entertainment causes offence in this locality. Councillors were keen to end the pole dancing and the sexually explicit entertainment and their efforts have been rewarded. Well done to our enforcement team too, who provided all the legwork from which our residents will now benefit."
Papers presented to the licensing committee in January detailed undercover work undertaken by two members of council staff as they investigated activities at Charlie Browns. The officers took up the offer of nine private dances at £10 a throw and spent £100 on drinks for the women - presumably it took all nine dances to be sure that the girl's were undressing... good to see council tax money being used so wisely.







Control-freak toy makers Mattel have thankfully failed in their idiotic efforts to put a Canadian fetish store out of business.
The Edmonton Sun reports that Barbie Anderson-Walley, owner of Barbies Shop in Calgary was "relieved" to have won after a a year-long battle over the name of her shop. The case, brought by Mattel who accused her of capitalising on the name of their most famous toy, was dismissed on Tuesday by a New York judge.
"This is thrilling," she said. "As a little guy with no money, I thought I didn't have a hope. I don't have the deep pockets they do, and I couldn't afford the court case.
"My name is Barbie. I didn't call myself that, my mom did."
Anderson-Walley was baffled when the lawsuit was launched and initially believed it was all just a joke. Her store sells clothes such as stripper wear, gothic, leather and latex outfits including bondage gear.





Police in Mobile, Alabama arreested ten people yesterday and have charged then in connection with working at an unlicensed strip club.
Undercover narcotics and vice officers watched four women stripping during a performance at 12:30 a.m. on Wednesday at the Bay Lounge. None of these master criminals had adult entertainers cards, which are required by a city of Mobile ordinance, said Officer Eric Gallichant, a police spokesman. To obtain a license, applicants must pass a background check and pay a $100 annual fee. Applicants with any previous arrests in the past year on prostitution-related charges can be denied, the police spokesman said.
Those arrested were managers Kevin Leshawn Peters and Terrence Laverne Blanks, bartenders Alexis D. Harmon and Kimberly Denise Cunningham, DJ James Albert Thornton, Jr., door person Africa Nizeria King and dancers Montanette Shawntell Sumler, Linda Renee Harris, Dorothy Demetris Holme andJessica Marie Nash.
The violation is punishable by up to 30 days in jail, Gallichant said.





San Diego's acting mayor was convicted yesterday of taking bribes from a strip club owner who wanted to water down a law barring nude lap dancing.
A jury found Michael Zucchet and another city councillor guilty of conspiracy, wire fraud and extortion yesterday in the federal 'strippergate' case. Zucchet had only taken over as acting mayor of the seventh largest city in the US the day before.
The jury found that Zucchet and Ralph Inzunza accepted $30,500 from the owner of Cheetahs Totally Nude club in return for promising to vote in favour of repealing a city ordinance barring nude dancers from touching customers which had come into force in October 2000.





As expected, the BBFC have won in their fight with Britain's porn distributors who wanted hardcore material passed with 18 certificates rather than R18, which restricts sales to sex shops and outlaws mail order.
The Video Appeals Committee were the body which effectively forced the BBFC to start passing hardcore in the first place, but are now a considerably less liberal bunch it seems. According to the BBFC press release, 'The seven members of the VAC were unanimously of the view that the appeal should be dismissed. The distributors submitted their works with a request for an '18' rating.“ The BBFC rated all of the works 'R18', the category reserved for sex works which are only available through licensed sex shops.“ The distributors appealed to the VAC under the terms of the Video Recordings Act 1984. In upholding the Board's decision on the nine works the VAC in its Judgment expressed the opinion that 'the material which is the subject of this appeal is not suitable for distribution other than in a sex shop.“ We have considered each video individually but in none of them do we find any grounds to change the classification.“ The Board has the onerous task of ensuring that material of this kind does not fall in the hands of children or the vulnerable and the fact that a person may not order it by mail in this country and must purchase it in person goes some way to enable the Board to discharge this duty.'"
hardcore magazines can, of course, be sold anywhere, and it is perfectly legal to order uncut hardcore from overseas-based websites. This short-sighted decision, alongside the recent court cases which reinforced the ban on mail order, will surely help drive the legal UK sex industry out of business, once again opening the floodgates for the black market.






Los Angeles City Councillor Tony Cardenas has moved to resurrect a proposal that will prohibit nightclub patrons from touching strippers. Cardenas claimed that too many residents - including children - are finding condoms and 'other detritus' on the streets outside strip clubs in his San Fernando Valley district.
Former Councillor Cindy Miscikowski attempted a similar ban on lap dancing three years ago. The council passed a law requiring that patrons stay at least 6 feet away from naked performers. But strip club owners responded by gathering enough signatures necessary for a special election on the law. The council then backed down.
After Cardenas announced his proposal, lobbyist Steve Afrait warned the council that if it breaks the two-year-old strip club compromise, he will make sure the ban is decided by the voters. "You have to be sincere in your efforts. If government is going to adopt an alternative ordinance to avoid a referendum, you can't just say, 'We're kidding.'"
Cardenas said he brought back the strip club ordinance after learning that a similar ruling in La Habra, which prohibits customers from coming within 2 feet of strippers, survived a legal challenge. Cardenas said he believes the city can handle a ballot-measure battle against the strip club industry.
San Fernando Valley is, of course, the home of America's porn industry.





We're thrilled to announce that Striporama has been confirmed as a finalist as Website of the Year at the 2005 Erotic Awards. With the site less than six months old, this is a wonderful achievement and a great honour. It's nice to know that our opinionated, acerbic and sarcastic reporting of the trials and tribulations surrounding erotic entertainment aren't going un-noticed!
The Erotic Awards take place On 3rd September in London - for full details visit the website.
An exhibition of nominees work will be on displayed throughout August at Coffee Cake and Kink, 62 Endell Street, Covent Garden, London WC2.





Acclaimed South American movie Los Debutantes finally opens in the UK today with critics salivating like dogs over the impressive opening scene, which features sultry Antonella Rios as a stripper who opens the film clad only in whipped cream!
The movie itself is a multi-threaded tale set in Chile's criminal underworld and looks set to be this year's fashionable slice of international cult cinema.
Those of you who don't want to run the gauntlet of oafs, chavs and unsavoury types at your local over-priced cinema can buy the surprisingly cheap Region 1 DVD release here.





Those of you unwilling, unable or just too damn lazy to visit an actual strip club might want to check out the Virtual Stripper that Striporama found while idly perusing the internet.
The basic idea of this page is that you type in your request and - providing it vaguely correlates with something on file (so no silly requests for her to strap on a Great Dane!) the girl on the video clip will do it.
We've tested it thoroughly and it works, so anyone with too much time on their hands should take a look.






Strip club owner Michell Borin has bought the house of Wichita serial killer Dennis Radar - better known as BTK.
Borin paid $90,000 for the house, despite an estimated value of just $57,000. She claimed that she deliberately overbid on the house to help Radar's family whose lives have been ruined.
"I know I overbid on the house,'' she said. ''I've worked very hard all my life to get where I am today. I couldn't even imagine what she is going through. This is the least I can do."
A judge has ordered that proceeds from the sale should be sent to the court clerk. The court will decide whether the money will be used to settle wrongful-death lawsuits filed against Rader by his victims' families. At least three such suits have already been filed.
Radar was convicetd last month of killing 10 people in the Wichita area between 1974 and 1991.





Gregory Carlin, director of the Irish Anti-Trafficking Coalition, has responded to Striporama's June 27 report on his attempts to ban sex education in Scotland's schools, and his boasts at having closed numerous strip clubs. In the interest of fairness, here are his comments. Readers can reach their own conclusions on how valid they may be. Striporama responses are in bold type.

I have closed about thirty strip clubs in the British Isles. The reasons for closure were variously exploiting children as 'dancers', immigration abuses, trafficking of women, and false imprisonment. I have never presented a religious justification to the authorities or courts. If necessity compels when the devil drives I might occasionally drift towards the fraud on the taxman test.
(Not presenting a religious justification doesn't of course mean that you don't work with one and it could be argued that you are misleading those you are making complaints to. Incidentally, we at Striporama are all in favour of those who exploit children or engage in trafficking being exposed and prosecuted.)
The children opted out of sex-ed were universally not getting pregnant. The secret committee decision by Glasgow therefore lacked logic because it was not directed at the problem. The late Roman Pontiff was not Pol Pot. Hundreds of millions of dollars have been spent on condom social marketing and it hasnØt worked. Condoms do very little unless men are prepared to use them and generally in Africa they are not.
(One widely acknowledged reason for the spread of AIDS in Africa is the hardline attitude against condoms by the Catholic Church which has even spread lies about their effectiveness in preventing the spread of disease.)
The Pope had less impact on HIV than the male phenomena of demand sexuality. The Vatican influence within the context of prostitution and homosexuality is slight. The highest rates of HIV in Africa relate to geography with small Catholic populations. Abstinence is not a workable option for those seeking to promote promiscuity and transactional sex as the human condition. The free speech of the few is a graveyard of daughters.





UK weekly lad's mag Zoo is running what it claims is 'the ultimate lads' mag competition', offering one reader the chance to win a £4,000 boob job for his partner.
The current edition asks readers to send in pictures of their wives or girlfriends so readers can judge which woman most deserves silicone implants.
Editor Paul Merrill said it was "a serious competition for blokes to show just how much they love their girlfriends with a present which'll last a lifetime." He added: "The boyfriend who does the nominating gets £1,000 cash as well as some new playthings. No one will be featured without their consent, and we anticipate a flood of entries.The winner will get the chance to proudly show off her new figure in Zoo.“Once the scars have healed."
Lucky her. No word on how many relationships have already been shattered by boyfrinds suggesting to their girls that they ought to degrade themselves by entering.

But if you are interested, you can subscribe to Zoo with





Three strippers and two club managers in Jacksonville have been arrested after allegedly spanking a trucker at his 31st birthday bash and 'severely bruising' his arse.

During a visit to Sensations nightclub, Keith Lowery's friends paid $25 for him to be handcuffed and spanked while a stripper restrained his head with her legs, investigators with the Pulaski County Sheriff's Office said. 21 year old Kelly Eslick admitted to police that she used a paddle drilled with holes while two other dancers, Lisa Nolen, 23, and Charlene Smith, 23, used a belt.
Now, ludicrously, all three have been charged with misdemeanor battery. More seriously, they and two other club employees - James Daugherty, 31, and Dena Mitchell, 30 - were charged with participating in an obscene performance at a live public show, a felony punishable by up to 10 years in prison. Good to see the local authorities have their priorities right when it comes to serious crime.
The case is due on court on August 4th.






Well, we were wrong.
Last week we reported that Barrow looked likely to get its first lap-dancing venue after chief environmental health officer Gary Ormondroyd recommended The Bluebird Club be approved. He told the committee the council could not object to the application on the grounds of the potential for public nuisance or disorder arising from the entertainment. He said they could also not legally refuse the application for the potential for fear of harm to children.
So guess what? They've refused the application. The decision by Barrow Borough Council's licensing committee to turn down the provisional granting of a public entertainment licence was met with a round of applause by the 20 Hindpool residents - a small majority of locals - who attended the meeting. During the hour-long, often tense meeting, Hindpool Councillor Dave Pidduck and resident Bill Crawshaw mounted a passionate but entirely irrelevant argument against the club. They also presented a petition signed by 140 residents in Hindpool.
As the council have failed to present any legal reason for refusing the licence, Bluebird owners Evolution Entertainments are to appeal the decision. We wish them luck.





Don't all rush at once ladies - a new Norwich fetish club is looking for 'trample hostesses' and has been advertising the unusual position at the local job centre.
Successful applicants will earn £100 a night from walking over male club members while wearing exotic shoes. Roy Singhfield, who is behind the new venture, said: "We have had 20 applicants and it is going up all the time. It is very good money and the girls haven't got any worries whatsoever. It will be properly policed, with doormen and whatever. They wear the footwear that the clients chose ß flats, high heels, whatever the clients want."
Singhfield said there would be no sex at the club. "It will be a trample club, a members-only club where people can come and get trampled on. There will be no sex ß nothing like that at all. If any of the girls even mention that to potential clients they will be straight out the door. And any clients who try it will be given a warning and after that barred from the club. There will be none of that whatsoever. Everyone has different fetishes and if people want it done, why shouldn't they have it done. As long as it doesn't go too far."
One applicant told the Norwich Evening Post "I saw the advert in the job centre and went for an audition where I had to walk on someone. I've never done anything like it before but I was told I wouldn't have to strip off. They said they couldn't tell me where it was going to be."
The new private members club - on Prince of Wales Road - is due to open in less than 10 weeks.






Nirvana and Frasier may have boosted Seattle's reputation as a cool city, but mayor Greg Nickels is determined to make it as repressed as the rest of America. New rules for strippers and clubs have been proposed which businesses say will rob the city of its competitive edge.
Nickels' proposals will force dancers to remain at least four feet from customers (there are currently no distance rules) and make club owners responsible for any code violations (currently dancers are responsible for their own behaviour). Clubs also would have to have more lighting, dancers offstage would be required to wear clothes and tips would have to be placed in a container rather than given directly to the dancers, lest anyone becomes inflamed by hand-to-hand contact. Nickels also promises additional land-use and zoning-regulation proposals for strip clubs by the end of the year.





A couple pleaded guilty yesterday to hiring a stripper for their son's 16th birthday party and were sentenced to two years probation. Landon and Anette Pharris, who had been charged with contributing the delinquency of a minor (because clearly a 16 year old would never have even thought about naked girls otherwise), also were ordered to take parenting classes.
As previously reported on Striporama in May, the couple hired a stripper to perform at a September party attended by their son and his friends. Cassandra Joyce Park- aka Sassy - danced provocatively before guests took up a collection and paid her $150 more to fully disrobe. Park and her minder were also granted probation.
Police were tipped off by a nosy photo developer at a drug store who saw pictures of the occasion.





New agency HotTottie are recruiting strippers. Already running a lingerie business. HotTottie are looking to expand into offering male and female strippers and stripograms, predominantly working within the Linconshire area.
Interested parties and wannabes should visit their website for more details.





Nottingham pub The Lord Alcester is offering what it calls 'the ultimate ladies night out' - The Nobbie Williams Show featuring Gareth 7 (a 'top Robbie tribute') and male strippers Hardcore and Ecstacy. All for just £6.00 and inclusing pastie and peas! Classy stuff, the event takes place on July 14th and admission is by ticket only, presumably available from the venue on St Matthias Road.






The second heat of Blush Babes 2005 was a night to remember as contestants lined up to wait for their chance to shine and show the crowd what lap dancing is all about.
Billie Rox in Huddersfield was buzzing with excitement and anticipation as each girl wowed the crowd with their performance. The guys had a ball as they were selected from the audience to get up on stage and receive a lap dance. The girls were up for a laugh and really enjoyed getting up and being the centre of attention, even the girls who didn't quite have the courage to get up themselves were cheering the contestants on.
The winner from heat two was Andrea who wore a Blush nurse's outfit and entertained the crowd as she wiggled and gyrated on the lucky volunteer to the sound of Kia's My neck My Back. The crowd applauded as 'The Naughty Nurse' teased and tantalised the lucky guy. The runner up for heat two was Katie a stunning girl, dressed in a tight black dress she got the crowd going as she danced seductively to Studio B's I See Girls.
Heat three saw a host of girls all eager to show off their sexy dancing skills and grab the chance to compete for a place in the final where they will have the opportunity to win £1000 of Blush lingerie. Guys were queuing up to be chosen as volunteers as they watched girl after girl perform. There was some serious competition as one by one the girls showed off their talents, each contestant getting cheekier than the one before in a bid to out do the previous girl.
Angie, another 'Naughty Nurse' who looked like she'd been self-medicating had the crowd in uproar as she gyrated and thrust herself at a guy whom in hindsight may consider himself an unsuspecting victim.
It was a tough decision for our judges this week but they eventually chose Danielle as the winner for heat three. This pretty brunette wrapped her long tanned legs around a guy more than happy to oblige our lovely Danielle. The cheeky lass showed off her sexy moves to Usher's Yeah and won over the judging panel with her seductive skills and sultry looks. Not to be forgotten though was Sabrina, in second place. This girl could move and move she did as she wiggled and gyrated her way through 50 Cents Candy Shop leaving her lucky volunteer with more than his eyes bulging.
All the contestants received a Blush Goody Bag and a bottle of bubbly for taking part which was presented to them by one of the hunky Blush Boys. The heat winners won lunch with the Blush team and an outfit to wear in the Grand Final in week 7.
Week 4 promises to be just as good if not more entertaining as yet more girls show off their sexy skills in their quest to become Miss Blush Babe 2005. Watch this space for all the gossip and action from week 4.

Barrow looks set to get its first lap dancing club, despite the best eforts of the local council. A new application has been submitted to town hall chiefsby the Bluebird Club. An application for the club in Holker Street was rejected in February with unsubstantiated claims that it would cause public nuisance, disorder and harm to children, and an appeal was later turned down. But councillors have been told they cannot block the plan any longer.
The current application by Evolution Entertainments has been recommended for acceptance by Council chief environmental health officer Gary Ormondroyd. He told the committee the council could not object to the application on the grounds of the potential for public nuisance or disorder arising from the entertainment. He said they could also not legally refuse the application for the potential for fear of harm to children.
The application will be discussed by the licensing committee at Barrow Town Hall on July 7.
