Michelle L’amour is one of the hottest performers today, deserving of the title of International Queen of Burlesque. L’Amour was inducted in the Burlesque Hall of Fame in 2005 and ranked in the TOP 5 of Burlesque by 21st Century Burlesque since 2009.
She’s teased audiences around the world and performed in the top burlesque shows like Lucha Va Voom, Dita Von Teese’s Strip Strip Hooray, The World Busker’s Festival, and Superstars of Burlesque. In 2010, her world renowned dance company, The Chicago Starlets, won the title of “World’s Best Burlesque Group” at the Burlesque Hall of Fame.
Michelle is known for her popularity onstage, as well as on TV (Semi Finalist for “America’s Got Talent ” – Season One, “Sexual Healing” – Showtime, “In the Bedroom” – OWN, Carson Daly, etc) and in international documentaries (like Tokyo’s “New Burlesque”, Canada’s “What a Booty” and “The Art and Heart of the Tease”, Immodesty Blaize’s “Burlesque Undressed,” and others).
