,” an audience of Hollywood heavyweights and Canadian locals applauded as a statuesque woman strutted on stage, rocking six-inch platform heels and a pastel tie-dye bodysuit., Constance Wu or Keke Palmer, nor was it for the film’s acclaimed writer-director Lorene Scafaria.
“My involvement in this film was two-fold: doing my best work to make sure strippers felt seen and represented, and also making sure the actors felt comfortable representing them and doing this work. There’s this idea that strippers just have to show up and be sexy according to what someone else thinks sexy is. That’s not really how stripping is. It’s an expression of your own sexuality and people pay you for it,” Frances said.
“You’re not sitting there dancing quietly for a guy for ten minutes, you’re talking to him. You’re making conversation and trying to keep the clock ticking,” she said. “You have to keep it fun and playful, so it was teaching the banter that keeps the money flowing.” “Strippers are anxious about this movie. They want it to be good, because a lot of the movies about strippers have been really problematic and made things worse. A lot of the narratives are really sad or pathetic, they pathologize what brought them to do this. This movie doesn’t do that,” she says.
If J Lo didn’t have the so called talent she has now, being a stripper may have very well been her path. Just sayin.
She knows how to fil out a CV
A movie about strippers with a golden heart who drug men and run up fraudulent charges on their credit cards. Entertainment for the whole family 😉
Most strippers are in fact very smart, happy, and well adjusted working moms that look like Jennifer Lopez. Said people who’ve never been to a strip club ever.
Ok this is a different stripper story. Imagine telling that at a pitch session. Pitch- this is a different strip story. Producer- how Pitch- the clothes stay on Producer - ok GP stripper story? Pitch- your genius- Produffur- only have fifty million buget Pitch- have to make do

You can tell a good consultant was behind this film because of the films authenticity. Women in the pole dancing biz will feel this movie. The live. Betrayal and the understanding of it when push comes to shove. No spoilers here 😜
