In the arms of snakes: the queen of vicious passions, brought up in a strict religious family (8 photos)

They say that it is useless to raise children: from a small little man will grow up as it should. Not what adults want. And the example of this amazing woman clearly proves this.





The real parents of this uninhibited beauty are unknown. The girl in infancy was taken up by a deeply religious family, who looked for answers to all questions in the Bible. She went to work quite early, at the age of 15: she worked in a nail salon.

And here is one of the clients, slipping casually along the right girl's figurine, offered the young manicurist a hack: if she wants to dance at the bachelor party. But there is a condition: no clothes. And the girl is not only agreed, and also made it her main source of income. And a lot.



And the amazing Katherine Boyd (1915 - 2001) revealed herself to the world. AT She was married for the first time at the age of 15. At 17 she flew away from Chicago, continuing look for yourself. And successfully. On account of Kat victory in a beauty contest, training burlesque, close association with a snake charmer. And these two moments she and united in her later career.



A breakthrough and know-how was the number in which the dancer dressed in a suit, one half of which depicted a gentleman, the other a lady. And danced. In the process, passion arose between the characters, which ceased in carnal. I must say that the audience fell on this performance in droves.

There was a number in the program in which a lady hung in a web. From the darkness spider legs appeared, which crawled over Kat's body, saving her from clothes. In general, frankly, secretly and on the verge.



But the apotheosis of the show was the number where she performed with two boas. Boyd took to the stage in a transparent mesh shirt, which is more showed what she hid. And began to squirm and twist together with creepy stage partners.



The peak of the career of the queen of burlesque, performing under a pseudonym Zorita, fell on the 40s. Moreover, despite the interest of the public, it was built career is not easy. The woman even served six months in prison for obscene behavior (dancing in an almost naked form). And then to animal advocates joined the process: they did not like the exploitation poor pythons.



Boyd went out with them for a walk to promote. And during performances tied them to pasture. To avoid, so to speak. It is clear that for pythons, this is not typical and not very useful. And trap all around Zorita gradually slammed shut.



She had to return to her roots: to dance at stag parties. But the years took their toll, changing the figure. Having reached the age of 40, the woman went to management and ran burlesque clubs for another two decades. Having accumulated enough money for a comfortable life (Katherine has a family, despite three marriage, did not work out), she retired. Due to the absence of children, she gave the accumulated tenderness to the Persian cats, which she brought into a considerable amount.



The star of the burlesque show took her secrets about snakes with her to grave. It is known that snakes are not trainable. And even those uncomplicated behavioral responses that these mysterious creatures demonstrated on stage, akin to a miracle. But apparently not wanting more to go to jail, the dancer left with her best practices and secrets.
