1.0 out of 5 stars Very disappointing book, 30 Dec 2000
By A Customer
The story of poor stripper Heidi, having to take her clothes off to get money for her education is a far too common story in the stripping industry. As owner of an upscale nightclub, I have seen thousands of girls come through here with the same sob story. In Heidi's book, she talks about all her troubles and she bashes people who don't respect strippers. She makes it sound like stripping is a great profession, she makes it sound like it's fun, well it's not. She forgot to mention the drugs, sex, alcohol and prostitution that comes along with the job. If she's going to write a book about stripping, write about the whole issue, not just the so-called good parts.

2.0 out of 5 stars This book was a very sugar coated view on dancing, 1 Aug 1999
By A Customer
I am an exotic dancer and have been for 4 years. I thought that this book was a very good documentary on heidi's life, but the overall content on dancing is very sugar coated. I have worked in very classy upscale strip bars and hole in the wall bars also. Every bar that i have worked in dancers have issues w/ prostution, drugs, gambling and much more and none of this was included in her book. She made dancing out to be a very ligit job w/ no problems. That is just not true i have not met many dancers like heidi they are like 1 in a millon. Im not saying this wasnt a good book im just saying that i think she left a lot facts on dancing out.In fact i am writing a book now about the hard core reality of an exotic dancer. Look for it in the spring of 2000.

3.0 out of 5 stars good book, but not the norm, 1 Jul 1999
By A Customer
i read this book in one night. her personality and tenacious will kept the book alive and moving forward. i'm a dancer in dallas, and things are very different. dancing is a full contact sport. guys expect quite a lot for their twenty bucks and four minutes. her strong sense of identity, loving family and the oodles of self-esteem are highly unusual among myself and the girls i know. this was a nice look at the industry, told by a nice girl. in reality, few of us can withstand night after night of honest contact with lots of men and still be chipper and happy with the world at large the next morning. still, her book was groundbreaking, told truthfully and gave a great role model in terms of self-respect. she acheived a personal triumph, no matter what the arena.

I believe the person who rated the book a 2 only skimmed through the book with an already prejudiced view point. Read more

If she could, she would kiss herself. This story is written poorly and simply. I have never read something so self righteous and self important. Read more
