#AFTERMATH MEDIA TV#

Glassvisage (author) from Northern California on July 30, 2008: I think Britney Spears is a nice and cool singer!!!! I encourage everyone to stop buying or reading any media that promots celebrities' addicitions. For the record, the public is weary of all this hype, crawl back into your mansions, so our country can start to focus on the good people (not publicity seekers)and make us feel better and happier. All of you are egomaniacs who feel the need to show what should be private made public. To the women who want those attentions, keep your clothes on, your legs and mouth shut.

Finally, he got a tv series, where he garnered fans only to forget to kept his pant zippered and mouth shut. The latest is the saddest is David Boreanaz. Public beware celebre's will inaguarate a multitude of new and other behavior stunts. Rather, they prefer to confess, say they are sorry and then add the caveat 'I am adicted to sex, drugs, alcohol'. I do not blame the media 'entirely' for the stupid, sexual behavior of celebrities.They are famous and some young people tried to emulate them, so celebrites do not acknowlege that they behave badly. Luckily Im not famous enough to be in Star or Enquirer. I truly do feel for the celebrities who just want to practice the craft they love. I can't even go to my local diner without getting backed into a corner by' fans' who think they know me or' haters' who think they know me.

Unfortunately it hurts to the core when someone I don't know (who clearly doesn't know ME at all) posts things about me. I am happily married and work very hard to make MY life what I want it to be. Along with a lot of other terribly rude and untrue things. It is 5 in the morning and I have spent the past hour crying because I happened across a forum where people where posting that I was ugly, and old (I'm 26). I googled 'How do celebrities deal with bad press' today and this site came up. I am now learning to deal with it on a more mainstream level as well. Im not a terribly emotional girl by nature but I find it incredibly hard to deal with the negative backlash that comes with being in this industry. I have met thousands of people who support me, adore me, ask for autographs etc. I work hard (drug free, always have been) and take real pride in my shows. I now am booked by the biggest featuring agency in the country and travel 3 weeks every month to perform across the country.

I was never the bump and grind lap dance sort of girl but unfortunately I am in an industry that probably has the most bad press and negative misconceptions of any business or celebrity around. Some examples of that is fire hooping, body contortion, pole dancing (yes it IS a sport), glittery costumes, wigs, body paint etc. I became a stripper 9 years ago because of a organic love for nudity and the creative freedom to be 100% myself and perform. I fell in love with the old school Burlesque dancers and admired their bravery to bare all (literally) to a society that was still struggling with (and still is to some extent) women's rights.

I give you props because I don't think I'd be able to handle that kind of negative feedback! More power to you and just let it motivate you even more!ДЄll I have ever wanted to do was dance and perform. I'm sorry that people post such terrible things. Lacey, thank you for posting and for sharing your story.
