Sir John and I had a fascinating conversation with Dita Von Teese, the Queen of Burlesque. We talked about her childhood and the Hollywood starlets that inspired her to transform into the pinup girl of her dreams. Dita shared with us how her start dancing in the rave and strip club scene empowered her to always be her unique self. We also got the inside scoop on her Vegas show, a compilation of her life's work that includes original and iconic Bob Mackie costumes and, of course, her incredible beauty and skincare routine. Our chat illuminates Dita Von Teese’s lasting ability to give people permission to be their full and eccentric selves.

Tune in as we discuss:

Why what you build is more important than what you’re born with

Defining feminism as one that allows women and lgbtq+ people to embrace their eroticism and power

Burlesque’s surprising American roots and eccentric history

The beauty rules she’s learned from incredible older women
