THE EXOTIC ENTERTAINER'S BIBLE
By Melody Obourn
(Cabaret D Entertainment)


I didn't think the words bible and exotic entertainer could ever fit together in the same sentence, but apparently they do. And those words also constitute the title of a new book brought to us by Detroit native and experienced "entertainer" Melody Obourn. After putting in her tenure on the stage and pole, she's compiled her experience and expertise in a tell-all book about the exotic entertainment industry, which would benefit anyone who aspires to make that their career. The Exotic Entertainer's Bible is exceptionally thorough, detailing everything from what to do about your period, how to deal with the club scene and how to turn one lap dance into 10. I know this is meant to be a serious book, and I'm sure a lot of ladies hold it in high regard, but sometimes it comes off as a rather humorous. I never knew that kitty-litter facial masks work as well as the ones at the day spa! And next time I get nasty dry skin, I'll only use Crisco(!?). Regardless, the book is true to what it claims, and in fact, I've learned more from this than I've ever learned from the Bible itself. This book has it all. Get educated and praise the Lord! ~Dan Doelker
