i was like 12 years old watching this at 4:30pm in the afternoon!! i was a suburban white Canadian kid living on michigan border and all i wanted to do was go to Feinkel street!! hahaha I soooo remember that Rump Shakers Vs The Mercedes Ladies ad!! EPIC! channel 62 was so awesome before CBS took over.
It's been big fun...... but the Dance Show's gotta run!!
wow! when i was a kid they used to show these commercials! i wonder what became of these strippers. so low-budget & corny-"gentleman start your engines and lets goh!" lol
Two weeks back, I was watching Real Sex 12: Black Orchid. I was observing three of the Black Orchid exotic dancers who were being interviewed. There was one particular dancer, who I would describe as very pretty with asian features. I wonder, if that could be Crush Linen? Just asking.
I knew someone who knew them and they said Crushlinen died of hiv and sunshine committed suicide. She had it as well. The person who told me this use to go to the strip club regularly and he knew them. Its a very sad story. I have never seen a picture of crush linen but he said she was very beautiful. Does anyone have a picture of her.
Sunshine is said to have committed suicide after another dancer went into her locker, stole her diary and told others about her disease status. Devastating because she wasn't very old. Even more sad that Crush Linen had kids and she passed.
Also my friend also told me that Crush Linen was a nurse by day and stripped at night. There were alot celebrities that were regulars at the Black Orchid. Two are well known rappers, I don't want to say who they were, but they were regulars for her.
Her story is the saddest to me because she made this sacrifice by stripping to help send her children through college. May she rest in peace!
Yes, we may be talking about the same source. it was two rappers (who didn't get the disease), one deceased rapper with the disease and a basketball player with the disease still alive. It was sad because she left the 3 kids behind. when did she pass though, I know Sunshine passed early on. ALso, who is the third stripper that died from their group?
I got this from a person that use frequent the clubs and when they use to dance there. Crush Linen had stop stripping when she died. I have seen pictures of sunshine, but no picture of Crush Linen. I wonder was she in some of those old videos from the 90's as a video girl. The story is very interesting and sad. I still dont know the other stripper that died of a drug overdose. Do you know how old sunshine was when she died and how she killed herself? The story seems to be hush hush....
yes, i knew she and sunshine did but I can't remember who the third dancer who passed away. I heard that she was a very pretty lady..I never saw any pictures of her.
I LOVE Celeste (AKA Main Attraction)...she is soo nice & her body STILL BANGIN!! I remember when I turned 21 & saw her dancing at The Grind....I know my 30 & up people know what I'm talkin bout...lol (used to be downtown)
That was one of the biggest rumors to hit the female dancers back in the 90's. It was alledgedly started by another dancer who was hatin' becasuse she wasn't making as much money. Needless to say she was beaten senseless for starting it but never the less it didn't erase the rumors. Obviously.
Yes, dancers caught a bad rap. The one with Celeste was a rumor, as she is still at today, but several of the the Mercedes Ladies had a tragic endings..
@pearlfection08 I believe that rumor. I was just a kid when I snuck and stayed up late and actually bumped into one of these commercials. All of these skanks look like they smell like day-old perch and probably still do except with a herpes-fied twist.
Watts club had the best commercials. But what about M&M Shrimp Shack and ABC Cafeteria (with the green twinkie on the styrofoam plate)? or that dude in the lone ranger mask selling vaccum cleaners?
Yeah Foxes! You be nice to those men and they'll be 'nice' to you. Treat them like each one is the only one you know. Take monthly medical exams. Get abortions & Learn about Mutual Funds and you'll be just Fyne.
Channel 62 WGPR you had to love it! Half of the girls on the new dance show were strippers. hell I used to watch the scene and the new dance show for these commercials as a teen
Even as a teenager back then, i used to find it odd as hell that at six in the afternoon a stripper commercial would be on. But the worst was the male stripper commercials. That was some funny shit.
No, last time I saw that bitch was a few years back. She stole my license and either used it herself or had someone use it to rent a Uhaul that was being used for home invasions on the eastside of the D. She better pray I never run into her bitch ass!!! For real for real
DAna whats up u lying ass bitch u need to pray and stop going around talking shit. U need to take care of them twins/kids u got and leave me the fuck alone! U lonely ass bitch. Get a life and get off the net crying about some old ass id u know i never used u did it yourself and tried to put that shit on me. i heard u was wack ass hell and lost your mind i thought u was cool but u jealous just like the rest of these rotten ass bitchs.
Why would I or anyone be jealous of YOU? Little OLD to still be shakin ya ass. I think you're the one who needs a life. Why would I need to use my own ID to pass off some stupid stuff. Sounds dumb to me. I just happened upon this site and thought I'd make sure people out here know how wack YOU ARE. Sorry haven't lost my mind very much sane. And damn the rumor is still out there and probably much worse that you have AIDS.
Damn China !
