The Trouble with Love Is @kellyclarkson@thefunktionlive Holiday Chorus Line Showcase
Choreo @ritaanntique
📍 @groundcontroltoronto
Literally obsessed with @ritaanntique choreo because it makes my slutty contemporary heels dreams come true! Like CMON! This piece was extra special because I love Kelly Clarkson and I especially love this song. I was obsessed with this album and song when it came out after Kelly won the first season of American Idol!
Anyways I cropped the video before the boobies reveal. Blame the internet!🛜
The Funktion Chorus Line showcases were some of my favourite highlights of 2025. I did 3 showcases! This is just me dipping my toes into burlesque by tying in my dance. I love a campy theme show and found exploring burlesque so much fun. I’ve gotten a taste and 2026 will for sure be more burly focused.

#sensualfloor
This is probably my most favourite piece I’ve ever performed. @ritaanntique choreographed the slutty contemporary horror heels piece of my dreams. Plus I got to share the stage with one of my dance besties @dance_and_donuts ! Honestly this combo was almost 6 mins long with the reveal and theatrics at the end… which I’ll eventually post once I have the energy to edit out the 🍒! Despite my glove reveal and some minor counts mishaps - I was so happy with this performance!
I’m in such early days of my burly journey but I’ve loved the Chorus Line showcases with @thefunktionlive to get a taste of #burlesque and I’m excited to keep working away at it. It’s definitely a whole new world and thrill of performing and I’m in love. 💕
