On benefits Las Vegas offers to a dancer:
“There are so many opportunities to make money here, whether it’s conventions, modeling, cocktailing, go-going, and there are so many shows going on all the time so that you can consistently work. … I have so many friends (in New York and L.A.) cocktailing all the time, and they only get to perform once a month, if that. There is an opportunity here to perform all the time, and that’s what I love. And the cost of living is fantastic (laughs). So why not here?”
