Red Snapper

233 puppets later.

Big thanks to Ben Britt and Viva Dallas Burlesque for the video and the playground.

So many acts come out of ridiculous ideas. This one was born a decade ago for a Monday Night Tease show. This is t...

You could say I'm a fan of fans.

I have three sets of feather fans, and two of those sets match each other. (You can see the primary pair of the matched sets above. I made a...

Why I do yoga almost daily.

Photo by Naked Lens from the Star Wars May the Fourth show earlier this month.

This act is ridiculous. It's a tribute to Drop Dead Gorgeous. I enter and proclaim my love for someone special...

Oh no! My left boob exploded!

Photo by Naked Lens.

Yep. My left boob was the one Han shot first. I still have my loaded "pew pew pew" finger fun inside the right glove. 

I blended the blue zircon stones (as used on th...

The truth of "beauty"

Queen Snapper photo shoot on Sunday. This gem was captured by Madison Hurley.

Here's the truth. I think we all know by now that I'm pretty rough and tumble. I keep my nails trimmed to a smart length...

Tub Tales 04.29.18

FINALLY back in the tub. Good lord!

I've been off Vimeo for a bit because they've started charging for storage. I had so many videos that I couldn't upload more without paying. So, I paid.

I'm...

Winners and Losers.

My hockey season has come to an end.

The Kings barely made the playoffs and lost in the first round. The Stars didn't even make the playoffs.

On the bright side, I won a free overnight trip to...

Sure was cold in Alaska

I came home with a virus so it's taken me a while to post since my trip to Anchorage.

This was shot in downtown Anchorage. I think it was 20 degrees F outside and had just started snowing. I couldn'...

Burlesqueland X

I'm not in Los Angeles for Burlesqueland but I've been the poster girl since the beginning.

Chris Beyond was going to "secretly" work me into the poster. The secret was that he was getting Becca Whi...

Anyone want an orange?

Here's another fun one from my shoot with Madison Hurley in November.

This is my second Poison Ivy costume. I had to rework the first one and I wound up doing all of this.

I have to sort out w...

Moving forward, leaving things behind

I almost called the post "leafing things behind," but I remembered how much I hate that the team is called Toronto Maple Leafs instead of Toronto Maple Leaves. It bothers me every time the Kings play ...

Real life takes over sometimes.

Photo by Jeff Fuller Freeman in Hot Springs from last fall. We shot this in the decaying apartment above an office. Creepy space but it goes well with the robe and boots.

My January has been too ful...

Waiting for the ball to drop.

This is an early photo from Madison Hurley Photography. We shot this in June 2014 the morning after a show and hours before I flew back to Los Angeles. I always think I look best with a cheesy grin. 2017-12-29 17:21:17 +0000 UTC View Post

So, I entered an erotica contest.

That's right. Red Snapper is a writer as an additional side hustle.

I now have a published writing sample of erotica writing, which opens more doors for me as a writer.

If you're into reading ...

Know what would be hilarious?

I mentioned this in my last Tub Tales. I thought it would be hilarious to win the crown with a comedic number.

So I won. I am Queen of the Final Southern Burlesque Exposure. I had the highest scores...

Flurries

Here's another one from my shoot with La Photographie in late October.

I encountered my first snow flurries as a Dallas resident today. I realized how I've acclimated to the weather in the nine mont...

Because I have these great boots

Photo by Jeff Fuller-Freeman. Shot in an attic in downtown Hot Springs.

I love these boots. They're a beautiful turquoise. You can't really tell in the photo.

I really am working to be a bit m...

Scratching the itchy monkey

I grew up in Hot Springs, Arkansas. This mural was painted by Kenneth Stern at the historic Arlington Hotel in 1977-78. This is in the band shell, and the inscription reads, "For Gloria M. who should ...

Nature girl in the Natural State

Shot by Madison Hurley Photography yesterday.

Yes, shot yesterday. Some of these photographers have a fast turnaround time! She's a dream to work with because she sets up quickly and has a great eye...

Tub Tales 11.20.17

I have so much to say this week. 

In my blah blah blah, I mention my dog's grill and how he has a tumor. I appreciate the support you give me as an artist. If you're into homemade throw pillows...

Putting the fartsy in artsy fartsy

La Photographie really snapped a cool-ass photo. The world doesn't get to see this one for a little while.

What you don't see are Madison Hurley Fuentes and Mr. Snapper each holding up a fan in the ...

Red Snapper's Tub Tales 11.01.17

Here we go!

https://vimeo.com/241316302

I have a few things to say from the new tub. Mostly, I appreciate your support.

Thanks to your support...

I have this fantastic image from La Photographie of Nashville. My patrons helped make this photoshoot happen. :)

I decided to shoot with my blue feather fans because I don't have any amazing photos ...

What have I gotten myself into?

I'm fine. October has been insanely busy.

First, I finished up a Tardis corset and panel skirt for a client. I don't typically do things at the last minute, but the corset zipper shipped to my old a...

Hoarding.

It's been a damn busy September for me. 

This is a backstage photo just for you guys from my Tulsa improvised burlesque gig. I felt cocky and naked and a little bit like my exodus from Los Ange...

Improvised burlesque makes me look so classy

Photo by Hershel Self at Poppy Pie's Burlesque Roulette in Tulsa, Oklahoma at the end of August.

This was the gig I did on moving weekend. Tulsa is 4-5 hours away from Dallas. Not a far drive but no...

Warning: I'm very much a raw Snapper in this one. No makeup, no decorative hair flowers. It's ju...

Yass!

This shot comes from Jeff Fuller-Freeman from my last trip to Hot Springs last year. We have plans to collaborate again when I head back to town. We focused on getting my butt lit just right then crac...

You win some, and then there are others.

I flew home from the Golden Legend Champion Challenge last night with no crown. In fact, I flew home early so I could get back to my pups and Mr. Snapper.

The acts that won the actual competition we...

Beware bad advice, my friends.

This is another photo from the BHOF Photo Safari a few years back. This was the last of three locations so we were allowed to shed some clothes.

Burlesque and pin-up modeling go hand-in-hand. They'r...
