Clare Nasir, Weather-Girl, GMTV
"Doe-eyed, ethereally beautiful and therefore suprisingly down-to-earth and switched on...Chrys combines ivories with ecdysiasm in a number of memorable routines".
Holli-Mae Searle, Editor, 21st Century Pin-Ups
"When Ms Columbine began her Birth of Venus routine, a stillness descended on the audience, a calm captivation. Chrys creates her own elegant atmosphere. She looks like a jewellery box ballerina and dances to the music of classical composers with classic composure – all pointed toes, delicate shimmies and downcast dewdrop-dusted lashes, extending her porcelain limbs with fine bone-china delicacy. Ethereal, and a little bit haunting."
Alix Fox, Writer, Bizarre Magazine
"One of the hottest girls in the world"
Ophelia Bitz, UK Burlesque Star and Comedienne
"The one and only piano-tinkling burlesque starlet!"
Paul Ronnie, Gypsy Hotel

Touch2Wild, International Pop Girl-Group Sensation
"She is a lovely person, she is beautiful and musical. Very committed with her work. She was our burlesque rose at the Dublin Burlesque Ball, and the audience was completely happy with her perfomance."
Mario Pereira Dos Santos, Director, Dublin Burlesque Ball
