Cirque du Soleil - Michael Jackson The Immortal World Tour

I bought the tickets in February. So many months separated me and my friend Siru from the amazing and spectacular event that was taking place in Helsinki, Hartwall Areena, only three times during two days in November 5.-6.12. Finally the day came, and oh boy had we waited for it!!!

We almost cried when the show hadn't even started yet. But when it did start...WOW. And we cried. I was glad I had taken some tissues with me.. =D

The music of The Jackson 5 and Michael started to play and all the amazing things on stage started happening at the same time..There was a live band and back up singers..only Michaels voice came from a tape...it was magical. And the performers...wow...they were (are) best of the best..and you could see that they enjoyed doing what they did..as they should.

There actually isn't that many words to tell you guys how....amazing..awesome...loveable...how the show got in to you....I have only the pictures I've found through the Internet to tell you....trying to tell you...how it was one of the best nights of my life.





Thank you Siru for coming and experiencing the phenomenom called Cirque du Soleil with me.

Payaso Adam West
I did the pick up with the gorgeus Elisa Day. Elisa already arrived the evening before, so we could plan the next day...in the morning we started to do our make up (which took a suprisingly long time!) and hair....just in time to get going to Klubi and see all the run throughs and discuss with the performers before the doors opened to the audience...

A little shadow was over my head, and body, all evening..I was having a 38 degree fever through the day and evening..already had the night before..so I couldn't enjoy the refresments backstage or be my "normal" self..I tried to do my thing as well as possible on stage, but off stage I was tired. I say TIRED!! It would have propably been possible to fry eggs on my cheeks, they were so hot! Gladly the freak show boys had some medicin (surprise there?!) and thanks to them, I could go through the evening.. so thanks boys!!


Mechanical Demon
Me and Anna
Fever or not, I was excited to meet the amazing Anna Fur Laxis in the flesh and even see her perform for the first time EVER!! I mean, I've seen video footage, but her doing her thing live....WAU. Besides Olivia, she has been my inspiration and an idol for...since I found burlesque.. I even had the guts to tell her that, and I got a picture with her!! YAY!!!

Cherrie A. Dorable
Anna Fur Laxis


Lola Van Dyke

All the numbers were astounding, and the Halloween was a good one. I left for home and my bed quite soon after all the acts were done, but I still had a good time!! Thank you all who came and saw us, and guys you were dressed well!!

All the pictures, apart from the picture of me with Anna, was taken by Katri Kallio.

Michael Jackson - Welcome to my World

I had a slow morning at work so I walked to Finlayson to an exhibition about Michael Jackson. I wouldn't even have known about the exhibition, if I didn't looked Michael in the eye on an advert on a bus. I screamed with joy when I saw it. Weird? Maybe. But I like(d) him..


It was prohibited to take photos in the exhibition, so you won't be seeing any pictures taken by me in this post...sad, 'cause there was so much stuff I wanted to take photos of, now I just have to remember it....and maybe visit it once more....or twice...... ^_^


This exhibition is the first exhibition in a museum about Michael Jackson - Welcome to my World. It opened at TR1 on the 29.9.2012 and will be seen until 28.10.2012. Through photographs, video of a concert (Bucharest 1992) and items from the Neverland ranch it tells about the life of the King of Pop as a musician, and about his personal life as well. The earliest photos are from 1987 and the latest are from 2009 when he worked with This Is It-tour, just months before his death. And actually..one picture I saw..was taken on the same month when I accidentally saw him "in the flesh" in London in March of 2009..I felt overwhelmed. There is also four of his multi platinum awards to be seen...and WOW I say!!

After looking every single photo and after I wrote my hello on the MJ memoribilia wall I found THE thing I wasnt expecting to see, but that was the best thing in the whole exhibition.. Limited edition piece of the Michael Jacksons Ghosts. I remember when I was a little girl and it came from TV. I recorded it on a VHS and watched it over and over and over again. It still is my favourite from him. And now I have a mission. I NEED one for myself....on a DVD.

Last, but not least, I sat down and watched the concert from Bucharest...or not the whole concert, but few songs.. I sat alone in the dark room with his music blaring from the speakers...seeing how young girls passed out in the audience and how he enjoyed performing...I cried.

I truly recommend every MJ fan near Tampere to go and see the exhibition...You might even have company if you want... just let me know when you're going.. ;)

Opening hours:
Tu-Fri 9 am – 5 pm
Sat-Sun 11 am – 6 pm
Mon closed! Free Admission on Fridays!

Teerenpeli Tease - Rebels

Oh my lovely readers!!

I'm am really really sorry, that I haven't been writing anything in a long time...but maybe my life has been boring..?? Maybe not....I just haven't had the time...

But now.. What I've been up to??

Natsumi Scarlett
Last Saturday was the best Saturday of my life in a long time...It was time for some burlesque, and wonderful people. All the way from Amsterdam arrived this wonderful, beautiful, kind and caring burlesque phenomena called Natsumi Scarlett, to keep us a burlesque workshop and later in the evening she performed at the Teerenpeli Tease with these other lovely and lovelier ladies Olivia Rouge, Cherrie A. Dorable and Marie la Mint.

In the afternoon we gathered up in the Razzmatazz dance studios at Finlayson and Natsumi showed us how to move our body..seduce with movement...through belly dancing...and I have to say I enjoyed it a lot!! Especially the one move where we did basically a hip check!! I was good at least at that, thanks to derby!! =D

From the studios, we went straight to Teerenpeli and started to get ready for the evening... The back stage was filled with glitter and laughter...and lemon teezer...once again...and we started to get in to the mood..=) The theme of the evening was Rebels so I, as a pick up, was a police officer... One fugitive got a away from me...but otherwise the shift was ok at the station.. ;)

One of the best acts I've ever (EVER) seen, was Natsumis last number, where she was this heartless doll...she had this beautiful mask and white contacts...she actually scared the hell out of me (and our poor Olli), but at the same time she was so beautiful... I actually told her that when she came close like that, she looked like a member of Cirque du Soleil... pure awesomeness. If you missed it....damn you!!!

I didn't have any time to take photos, so all I have to show you are pictures of me, that my dear friend Nelliina took of me.. I will show you more, if I find some somewhere...

X-treme Car Show & Pin Up Finland 2012

Different kinds of cars and trucks and shows got together last weekend at Xtreme Car Show, and that's where I headed.. Pin Up Finland 2012 final was held at the event as well and I was glad I got to see the awesomeness from the "first row"...


I arrived at Helsinki in the morning and got to spend my time with the girls that were in the finals...lots of hairspray and petticoats...and hugs... I don't actually remember when was the last time people screamed with joy when they saw me (maybe never??) and everyone wanted their hugs... As I've told you guys already before..I LOVE THOSE GIRLS!!



All the girls got ready and dresses were on...Me and the beautiful Joy Licious went to the audience to watch the show..and oh boy what a show it was!! Olivia and Cherrie arrived in style, in a convertable, and there were sailors, there were mechanics, there was Frankenstein!!!!!!!, there were motorcycles and there were dancers....and there were the finalists... I screamed and laughed and almost cried... After all this awesomeness the judges made up their minds and the winner was........Jenssu Suicide!!!! The first runner up was Wendy D'Ville and the second runner up was Miss Magpie.

The number 1 Pin Up Girl!!!

And then it was all over....kinda.

After the show we went to the booth of Pin Up Finland and walked around the place and let people take pictures of us...and we took pictures of ourselves as well...had fun. =) We laughed a lot, we hugded a lot and then we laughed again......did I already tell you that I love these girls?!?! =D



And oh!!!! I had a nice reunion with Kunkku that I saw for the first time at the Hot Rod & Rock Show that was at Tampere last Spring. ^_^ There was lots of other cool cars as well and I took my time to take pictures of them..as usual.










This picture is taken for my lovely Betty Blue!!! <3

Why do I get a really strong Ghostbusters-feeling from this car?????


In the evening, when the other girls started to get in the party mood, Olivia, Cherrie and I took of to the Viking Line terminal to do some burlesque shows at the Viking XPRS. There was this Nordic Rockabilly Cruise and we were excited...already at the terminal the laughing begun (like, I played a little chinese woman etc..don't ask..)....we were maybe a bit tired?? Yes

And of course, I had to have my daily Betty photos.. ^_^
The shows went great and the audience liked what they saw. And our feet were killing us! But maybe the best part of the cruise was.....food. =D We got passes and codes to enter the mess (the doors said staff only, khih..), where the staff of the boat eats..there were food 24/7..and I like food so I liked the mess. =D

After walking around in high heels for about 22hrs, the 6hrs of sleep felt like heaven. In the morning it was, surprise, breakfast at the mess again and then I just had to check out the tax free.. bought a little candy and a new perfume.

I got home in the afternoon and went straight to bed. I was so tired...but so happy! Thank you everyone who made my weekend so awesome and let's meet up soon!!! Right girls??
