BIO

She's petite, sweet, and she packs a lot of heat! (No, really she carries hot sauce in her purse)- it's Porcelain Pistol! Porcelain Pistol is an entertainer in Chicago, IL practicing the art of burlesque, gogo, and modeling. Porcelain has been building her craft professionally for about four years. She began studying burlesque at Studio L'amour in June 2014, and had her first student performance in October 2014. Porcelain became an apprentice of Michelle L'amour and The Chicago Starlets in June 2015. This opened her up to the opportunity to work different venues throughout Chicago including City Winery, The Drifter, Joe's on Weed St., The Mayne Stage, The Everleigh Social Club, Soho House Chicago, Township, Wiggle Room at The Comedy Bar, and Unbridled at Untitled. She was still just a baby burlesquer when the troupe dissolved in January 2016, but the sisterhood of the troupe and guidance of the teachers helped her flourish and grow leaving her ready to head out into the burlesque community as a solo performer.

Since her time with The Chicago Starlets, she has been a returning burlesque performer at The Drifter, The Backdoor Saloon, Deboniar, Uptown Underground, City Winery, Cobra Lounge, Untitled Supper Club, Soho House, Beauty Bar and various Sally Marvel Productions including Vaudeville The Show, and Bikes & Burlesque. She's also been fortunate to perform at Motoblot 2017 and various private events including holiday parties, company functions and a wedding. In May of 2018 Porcelain also began dancing for Paula Silva Artistry Co. Entertainers which has led to lots of fun fully-styled gogo and burlesque gigs at The Underground Nightclub, The Godfrey Hotel, ROOF on The Wit, and Liftoff Fest 2018.

In September 2017 Porcelain shot for the first time with photographer Alejandra Guerrero, not only did this open her up to shooting opportunities with other photographers, but it sparked a new interest in modeling. Since then Porcelain has done several collaborations with Nightengale Photography, Alejandra Guerreo, and Ruby Images as well as modeled for The Underground Nightclub's EDW Campaign, shot by Tony Maro. She also enjoys figure modeling for Grotesque Burlesque and The Elmhurst Art Museum.
