Media Coverage of Tempest Storm, Aged Burlesque Queen
Recently, the mass media have been having a good time writing about Tempest Storm,an 80 year-old burlesque performer. They call her a stripper, but burlesque performer,is probably more accurate.
Ms. Storm is retired but still performs, which is inspiring because it is rare to see the traditional mass media covering stories about older female performers over 70.
I am not suggesting that older women take up stripping or burlesque dancing as a career move, unless it's something one is burning to do.
I think it is admirable that Ms. Storm is still working and enjoying her work and life at 80.
