WHAT THE CRITICS ARE SAYING ABOUT GIGI LA FEMME!
"Sultry" –New York Times
"(GiGi la Femme is) clearly the most outrageous risk taker of all the performers. Her act is a combination of male fantasy and female desires. She transcended the night with concerted actions, wit, and a wild, infectious enthusiasm. She made men blush and women faint with her eroticism. No small feat." -NY Theatre Wire
"The unofficial people's choice award went to GiGi LaFemme, who appeared as a white-robbed, bun-eared Princess Lea and shimmied down to her Jabba-slave bikini, swinging her things in time to the Star Wars theme song." –The Brooklyn Record
"GiGi was stunning in a green sparkly dress — that girl's got class she ain't even used yet"
-CulturalCapital.com
"The delightful chanteuse in chartreuse is, Gigi La Femme, a burlesque entertainer who treated us to steamy classics." -FantasyBookSpot.com
"Gigi La Femme's sultry moves and scandalous sex appeal have made her one of Manhattan's most in-demand burlesque babes" –Eros.com
"I've never seen an ship tassel-twirl with such skill!" –Ministry of Burlesque
"She gave Beyonce a run for her money when she shook her rump. La Femme knows how to drop it like it's hot." –NYCool.com
