I used to be a lead singer in a Chicago metal band, and being a restless person I wanted to add a little something to my stage show. So I started adding grinders and fire and hooks to my acts. My band eventually broke up and I still wanted to be on the stage. One of my best friends Ammunition (www.missammunition.com), hooked me up with the right people and I just jumped in with both feet!
My husband David (http://www.facebook.com/david.bates2851) then created a metal/burlesque night called The Devils Playground, where I eventually became the producer and booker.
How long have you been performing?
I've only been doing burlesque since 2012. But I've build a pretty hefty resume and have a mini following.
What does burlesque mean to you ?
BOOBS! LOL! No, really it means empowerment and creativity. Where no matter what you look like, no matter your size, your a fucking rockstar!
Why Ohio?
I've never been to Ohio! I fell in love with Bella Sin's look and her accomplishments and wanted to be a part of that.
Describe your self in one word?
I had to get my husbands opinion on this one...he chose "Captivating"
Come see Jezzibel perform at The 2nd Annual Ohio Burlesque Festival 2012 at The Beachland Ballroom
