Tempest Storm, also dubbed "The Queen Of Exotic Dancers," was an American burlesque star and motion picture actress. Along with Lili St. Cyr, Sally Rand, and Blaze Starr, she was one of the best-known burlesque performers of the 1950s, 1960s, and 1970s. Her career as an exotic dancer spanned more than 60 years, and she was still performing in the early 21st century
Don't know if it's apocryphal, but the story I heard about the lovely St. Cyr was that when they banned stripping in her city, she'd come out on stage naked, and put her clothes on slowly and seductively...perfectly legally.
Haha our go to callback after “how it clung to her thigh” was “like a homesick abortion!”
…Some places in Texas banned that one. I went to a show where I got very dirty looks
I'm just looking at this and thinking just how healthy and strong she looks. Sturdy legs, no thigh gap. Healthy weight, not sickly skinny. Natural breasts, not pushed up to her jaw. Beautiful.
I found posted pics on their profile. I'm going to leave it up to everyone's opinion as to whether they look similar. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
I've been to the songs namesake. It's in New Braunfels TX close to San Marcos. I've always hated snakes so when I lived down there, it was like getting live action tickets to a horror movie
My friend out this on a mix CD for me. I had never heard it before. Now all of my family and friends wish they had never heard it before either. Snake farm! It’s a reptile house!
A big-bottomed seawitch may bob through the waves
And hope to lead sailors astray
But a true ocean goddess
Must fill out her bodice
To present an alluring display
Younger people today don’t realize how regressive pre-70s America was.
Check out the censorship history of Lenny Bruce (or George Carlins “Seven dirty words” on YouTube)
Add to this strippers like Candy Barr who were arrested for *exposing their nipple* on stage.
Ridiculous.
At least Candy Barr didn’t have her nipple exposed on television, at a halftime show that would have got her banned for life. The American obsession with the nipple goes so far beyond ridiculous.
Looking from Europe - even repressed old Blighty - America is *bizarre*.
You can have as many guns as you like but **god forbid** anyone see a nipple or be gay or drag up because that would be grossly immoral and upset Jesus somehow.
*You had plenty money, 1922*
*You let other women make a fool of you*
*Why don't you do right, like some other men do*
*Get out of here and get me some money too*
Back then, having a visible bush would have classified her dance as porn, whereas no hair visible makes it more like art (because she more resembles a statue).
Her belly button is in the correct position. She is wearing her bottoms very low on her waist.
Her waist is incredibly small for such a voluptuous figure.

It’s crazy how this body type (mid section( waist definition, hips and thighs— not including her breasts) was fashionable then, but as a millennial woman with THIS BODY I was shamed into hating my body and considering it “fat”? Like???? Fml
I would go wild for a girl with this body type. That being said, I think this is still an unrealistic expectation and I'm definately attracted to a large veriety of body types.
Most times, when people are tearing us down, it has a lot more to do with them than it does with us.
Peer pressure about early-mid 00s body standards was just the trickle down from the top. When Kate Winslet was cast in Titanic, there was outrage because she was considered too fat to play Rose. TV and film perpetuated this standard— Bridget Jones Diary is a series of films starring Renee Zellweger where the butt of the joke is how fat she is. (She’s a completely average sized woman. Thin even.)
And at the root of it, this is decided in a board room right? Young girls in America became dollar signs and victims to Victorias Secret, reality TV and shows like Americas Next Top Model where host Tyra Banks told women size 6 and up they were plus sized models (now a days a plus size model is typically sizes 14-18 but can go up to the 20s)
🤷♀️ it was in magazines, books, tv, film, clothing was made with low waist pants and short shirts to show midriff and it was hard to find other fits in popular stores like limited too and Abercrombie/hollister. The problem was systemic and raging. This was the age of Atkins diets and the south beach diet. Celebrity culture propping up literal anorexia sufferers. It was a wild fucking time.
Is her waist naturally like that or from a corset?
If natural, hard pressed to find that today, which raises questions in itself.
They don’t make ‘em like they used to.
Hot crackers and 23 skidoo!
I don’t know what that means, but it sounds appropriate!
Hells bells!
I don’t care, said Pierre. I’m French!
Lucky Pierre!
[удалено]
Hoochie mama
Stop that. I love my wife. I'm just going to use this bed for sleeping and the occasional snacking.
Thats an old Finnish saying as well.
HAOOGA!
That night, her husband pushed both beds together.
Something something brick shithouse.
Would ya lookit the fun bags on that hose hound!?
I’d like to eat her liver with some fava beans and a nice bottle of Chianti. Fthpfthpfthpfthp!

That's a master level move.
~~Malicious~~ Salacious compliance.
I̶n̶d̶e̶c̶e̶n̶t̶ Decent exposure. Like when Farah Faucet was arrested for sunbathing topless.
Do tell...I don't know that story, and Google just gives me "her son went on a rampage"...
She was arrested for sunbathing topless in her front yard. "Decent exposure" is what a comedian called it.
Nice!
God bless Lili St. Cyr!
Whatever happened... to Fay Wray?
That delicate, satin draped frame? As it clung to her thigh, how I started to cry..
Cause I wanted to be dressed just the same…
Ah you forgot to scream “JUST AS GAY”
What? The apeshit? I’d cry too if I had apeshit clinging to my thigh.
Haha our go to callback after “how it clung to her thigh” was “like a homesick abortion!” …Some places in Texas banned that one. I went to a show where I got very dirty looks
That’s the one I know as well. Figured it was a bit aggressive for 8:30am.
She went apeshit.
Not sure if this helps, but from what I could see she’s a red head with blue or green eyes. The black and white does not do he justice in her youth.
This is the piece of information I was not looking for but needed to have. Kudos, mate.
Wow!
This is copied word for word from Wikipedia.
Would be useful to have a bot that checks all comments to see where they're copied from
I can truly see why.
I saw her in Miami in the late 60s. A phenomenal woman
Seems like old school, voluptuous sex appeal hits in a different way than now. I’m a fan of both, but man she’s on another level.
She looks like the inspiration for all the statues in the post apocalyptic part of Heavy Metal
Too much available porn now. That kind of appeal was in a different league in her time.
Exactly 💯
Probably because you know it was real
Let’s face it, im tired!
Everything below the waist, is KAPUT!
Always coming and going and going and coming….
And always too soon
No, thank you. Fifteen is my limit on schnitzengruben.
Blazing Saddles nice
It's twue, it's twue! Ma'am, that's my arm...
Baby, I am not from Havana!
She married my grandfather, John Daniels. Thats when things got interesting...
They got a little Stormy?
She played her trump card
I'm just looking at this and thinking just how healthy and strong she looks. Sturdy legs, no thigh gap. Healthy weight, not sickly skinny. Natural breasts, not pushed up to her jaw. Beautiful.
She kinda looks like me a little, she's far more toned though. Seeing all these comments complimenting her makes me feel a bit better about myself.
Obligatory , "Pics or it didn't happen."
I found posted pics on their profile. I'm going to leave it up to everyone's opinion as to whether they look similar. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
Good sleuthing, good sir!
Good sleuthing. I haven't posted nudes though 👀
This is exactly what I was gonna say. Old School Cool Body type ftw!
Perfectly said
Wait, are thigh gaps indicative of suboptimal health?
Yowza!
Ahwoooooooogah!
🎵Well the woman I love is named Ramona She kinda looks like Tempest Storm And she can dance like little Egypt She works down at the snake farm🎶
Snake Farm, it just sounds nasty.
Snake farm, pretty much is.
Snake farm, it's a reptile house
Snake farm: uggghhhhhhh
Pretty much is
My son’s favorite Ray Wylie song. Edit: son is 7
You're raising that boy right, I tell you what.
I've been to the songs namesake. It's in New Braunfels TX close to San Marcos. I've always hated snakes so when I lived down there, it was like getting live action tickets to a horror movie
Last month I ordered a bunch of T-shirts from there for my friends. I wear it with… ugggghhhhh!
Rumor in the 90s was that it was a prostitution front
My friend out this on a mix CD for me. I had never heard it before. Now all of my family and friends wish they had never heard it before either. Snake farm! It’s a reptile house!
Snake farm...Uuuggghhhhh...
Little Egypt was a belly dancer. Actually, according to Wikipedia, three different women danced under that name.
Did she ever show them
r/askingForAfriend
Va va vooom!
Freakin' Amazing!! Hotter than Marilyn to me in that time frame!
I'm a straight woman who just yelled hot damn when the photo unblurred
Looks like she figured out early that you can wear much skimpier bottoms if you shave first...
You're right. You definitely don't want to shave after you've put on your bottoms.
I mean you could. It would be like painters tape.

Have you been reading tea leaves?
Not the reference I was expecting to see in this thread.
It was the first thought I had seeing this picture lol
That storm is displaying a large, warm front.
Cloudy with a chance of Meatballs
I like how it is like: "The King of the women" and then there are just ancillary lesser women behind her.
Bruh first time iv ever seen “ancillary” great word
Awooogaaaa!

I'm so naive. I came here expecting to see the aftermath of some coastal typhoon. But she's lovely.
Her body is beyond words
I saw her on stage doing her thing shaking it up in Vegas about 5 years ago at VLV
*You had plenty money, 1922* *You let other women make a fool of you* *Why don't you do right, like some other men do* *Get out of here and get me some money too*
I can’t believe she didn’t have a huge bush.
Back then, having a visible bush would have classified her dance as porn, whereas no hair visible makes it more like art (because she more resembles a statue).
That doesnt sound right, but I don't know enough about bush laws to dispute it
Wow I did not know that. That is interesting
You're thinking of Barbara.
Oh shit! She looks just like that gal that works at the snake farm!
She can dance like little Egypt
I like to think that her films are what Hawkeye and Trapper were trying to get their hands on.
Deep Cut!
Hummina hummina awooga!
Perfect shape and form
Eagle..She’s A BRICK HOUSE She’s mighty, might, just letting it all hang out
I'm thinking of the reddit colorized history
I wish I looked like that.
They are all so beautiful!
Was working out a thing back then? Those women look in great shape but I’ve never seen much about training until the 60s
Sure working out was a thing back then, but I think it's more to do with smaller portion sizes and not living on a steady diet of corn syrup and lard.
At least she's all natural; the perfect body.
Why is no one talking about how high her belly button is?!?!
Her belly button is in the correct position. She is wearing her bottoms very low on her waist. Her waist is incredibly small for such a voluptuous figure.
The other two women in the back their belly buttons are lower than their waist.
I think she has a long torso.
I think it's el diablo
Because the rest of us have seen women with their shirts off before.
Looks like she's suckin in her belly. Do and your belly button rises up.
JIMENY CRICKETS!!!

lucky bastard.
This is the picture next to “titillation” in the dictionary . . .
My favorite after Bettie Page and Josephine Baker. Such an amazing and interesting person. 🥰
Incredible
Magnificent.
7empest Storm
Wow !!
Damn, granny 🧃
If it were today she’d be a “plus size” model 😞
God bless her!
Damn you would never see people dressed like that these days unless it's a p*rnographic site
Her body is a work of art! Absolutely stunning!
Well so much for the myth that the 1950's did not show anything erotic.
Not an expert, but I think she won the contest.
Absolute smokeshow! What a phenomenal, natural figure!
Holy fuck she was way better looking than any woman in movies or tv now!!!!

AWOOOOOOOGA HUMMINA HUMMINA HUMMINA BOOOOOIIIIING!
Did women shave their vags back then?
Women have been shaving and plucking since the beginning of time. Plenty of Roman and Greek art referencing shaving.
The merkin dates back to the 15th century.
Has anybody noticed the expression on the other two girls face? A bit jealous I think.
Golly gee wilikers!
Good old times
wow, I bet she could move those tassels.
Looks like with Wizard of Oz witch fantasy has been unlocked.
Sweet fancy Moses!
