Va-va-voom! Those gutsy dames of Viva Dallas Burlesque were back at it on Friday night at Dallas' Lakewood Theater. Performers Iris Le'Mour, Miss Malicious, Ruby Joule, Coco Lectric, Angi B Lovely, Blaze and Donna Denise peacocked their glitziest feathers at Burlesque Royalty, a show that would make any king blush.
Photographer Mike Brooks scoured the scene and collected these crown jewels -- the entire assembly can be viewed on the Observer's slideshow.
After assessing them all -- a tough job, we know -- 10 were picked as the absolute best. Warning: These are not the slightest bit safe for work. Now, for the royal treatment.
