I'm Miss Amelia Kallman, an American Showgirl-next-door. In ‘07 I started this blog when I moved to Shanghai to open China's 1st burlesque club. After opening Chinatown and becoming highly successful, this blog was shut down by Chinese authorities. After threats and incidents, I was forced to flee China overnight. Now I live in London where I've started to do shows again, and have written the book, 'Diary of a Shanghai Showgirl'. The timing feels right to bring this blog back. Hope you enjoy!

My nickname....
I got a nickname now, and people are now introducing me as Virginia Slim, or Slim for short! Haha! I have to say, it's catchy! So it looks like I'm not going to the "summer camp" until Friday now. Thursday night we have been invited to a masquarade ball being thrown by a friend of mine for 4 fashion designers....Alan Cummings will be there, who knows ME, but I've never met him! (I did have his autographed picture hanging above my bed for many years though! I guess you could call me a fan!) So that's exciting for me! Been going to this park everyday, exercising, playing with this gorgeous dog, and tonight to a 'Crazy Girls" show, and tonight might be the night I meet Norman's sister (whose birthday is next week along with mine!)

Hey Miss Amelia. Don't hate on blogs. Take lots of pics, and given where you are and what you're doing- there could be a memoir out based on The Adventures of Miss Amelia Kallman when you're done!
All the best. Big kisses from your old fogie friends, Sari and Mark.
