"When I hit 30, I was redfinding dance and refinding home, and finding other areas of my sexuality, and just experimenting in new and fun ways. That was a gateway drug to burlesque, but if I hadn't had those experiences first, it would have been harder to be myself on stage in front of other people, while I was taking my clothes off... I don't think I would have had the joy in it."
Red Velvet is a trained dancer who has become a versatile, frequently provocative and disarming.
