RIP Wild Cherry

aka Frieda LaBreche


If you know Me, you know My love for burlesque. 

Cherry was a burlesque dancer who played Bourbon Street beginning in the late 1950s. I never got to see her perform a strip tease, but I did get to see her comedy act with Bustout Burlesque a few times. I even had the honor of meeting her, chatting and getting an autographed picture. She was something else. You could tell she loved what she did and was so happy to meet her fans. 

This brings a tear to My eyes. The world truly has lost a strong, fierce woman.
