Perth update…
Had a great trip to Perth this weekend. Flying in Australia is such a breeze compared to the states, they don’t even ask for ID! And security never cops an attitude with anyone – yes I know, there are a lot more people in the states, and there’s the whole terrorist threat issue, but that doesn’t give security the right to be so mean to everyone. Qantas has always been my favorite airline, I don’t know why so many people are now bitching about it, ever since Virgin Blue came into play (really sexy commercial though if you‘ve seen it, smoking hot flight attendants and pilots). Qantas provides you with free meals and free beer and wine and TV screens with movies, in every seat – for free. With the other airlines, you have to pay for all the extras.
I arrived in Perth on Friday, and was taken out to a very nice meal, then to a radio show on Nova. Checked in at the Inter-continental next to where Britney Spears concert was being held. So many hot girls walking around getting ready to go to the show, which a lot of people walked out on because of the lip-syncing. But seriously people, you try to sing and dance at the same time and still sound good and not be out of breath, it’s not easy, and physically impossible for most people. As long as she puts on a great show, who cares if she’s lip-syncing. Everyone always has to have something to bitch about don’t they! It‘s so bloody hard to please people sometimes.
Northbridge in Perth is a bit of a wild area, lots of action on the streets at night. Plenty of clubs and restaurants and drunken loud Aussies running amok as we do! The Voodoo Lounge is great, they treated me very well, the dancers were nice to me and all smoking hot. It’s more of a bar feeling with naked girls on stage. So it’s not like your regular strip joint. There’s no pressure to get lap dances, you can play pool, sit around and drink, watch the stage shows, whatever floats your boat.
Had a packed house to watch my shows, which was great. Always feels good to dance to a ton of people who are excited to see me perform. Tipping isn’t customary in Australia, and since we have 1 and 2 dollar coins, they have to use tipping dollars if they’re going to sit at the tip rail. So I played my usual game – the lotion show (which I had to demonstrate cause the crowd aren’t used to feature dancers and these games). And the second night I did my paint show, which everyone loved. It’s weird that I sold more books than movies, but hey, everything is free on the internet these days, so no big surprise there. I personally would rather pay for a CD or DVD than download it for free online, cause your stealing from the artists and production companies who spend a lot of money on producing these things, and a lot of time and effort, just for our entertainment. But I’m a firm believer in Karma, each to their own I guess.
So I’m now back in Sydney and about to change my flight to stay one more week, since I was recovering from tonsillitis all week and haven’t had time to catch up with my friends. So I’m taking a short break before heading back to LA to start shooting movies again! I’m actually excited, because I do miss making movies and doing photo shoots. And of course, I have plenty of projects going on to keep me very busy, music, lingerie, writing etc…
So until next time!
Luv Mon xoxo
