"I am at a point where I want to create acts that mean a lot to me... I think we should be representing where we're from, and not being afraid of showing our history and our culture, and I would love to see more of that."
Marie La'Pearl hails from Puerto Rico and moved to Virginia Beach, where she now bumps and grinds. We talk about Marie's development in the field of burlesque, her connection to the island of enchantment, pin-up, cultural pride, conservatism, blue laws, and good cocina criolla!
