"Best 2K I Ever Spent" How To Have A Burlesque Birthday Party With Balls

by M.J. Koury · April 22, 2011

Lee Chapell threw the burlesque legend and girl about town, "World Famous" *BOB*," a birthday party at Lucky Strike Lanes. It was wild and naked time! We noticed a lot of trends from the Village Voice's photos that might help you in planning the birthday party of your own token burlesque star pal.

1. BYOB: Bring Your Own Ball.

Fabulous-ness is only as fabulous as the accessories, and if you say you're an extreme bowler then you have to have the balls to back it up. These partygoers decorated accordingly.

2. Hats, or Innovative Headware in general.

What was on your head this night spoke more loudly than whatever was on your mind. Marie Antoinette wigs were also greatly encouraged.

3. Obscure your face.

Go to the party...but don't let them see who you are!

4. Be demure.

It's contrary.

5. Be wild.

Duh, it's a burlesque party.
