Lili St Cyr Tribute

A tribute to one of the biggest stars of burlesque, Lili St. Cyr. Her trademark gimmick was 'The Flying G", which consisted of her g-string being attached to a fishing rod that would fly off into the balcony as the lights dimmed. She was also known for her onstage 'bubble baths' and performing the reverse strip. And she was a big influence on Marilyn Monroe, who attended many of Lili's shows. Lili also developed her own lingerie business called "The Undie World of Lili St. Cyr".

I once saw an absolutely, stunning, unbelievably, hot nude photo of Lily St. Cyr in Playboy when she was in her 50's & she looked better then than at any time in her life.

She slept with Marilyn Monroe. That caused the famous Joe Dimaggio and Frank Sinatra break in of the wrong apt.

Hello, Rachel! I was sent this video of yours and was said "Meet the blonde Ava", lol! Well, she's not as perfect as Ava, of course, but definitely she is very attractive and it's terrific if she could inspire Marilyn! Thank you for this tribute, Rachel!

Thank you! Lili is one of the biggest stars ever of burlesque! She had a lingerie line and inspired Marilyn Monroe in the ways of being feminine and seductive. Marilyn adopted some of the movements of Lili for her own image. I am sure Dita was inspired by Lili as well!  : D
