THE PUSSYCAT DOLLS: Burlesque is back.
An HBO documentary out this past week, Pretty Things, looks back on the dancers of the 1940s through 1960s. A multi-city revue of contemporary acts performs Sunday night at the Milky Way in Jamaica Plain.
But the biggest, hottest news in burlesque comes from the West Coast, where Robin Antin's Pussycat Dolls have busted out of the clubs and the hipster scene to become a nationwide mainstream phenomenon. The Dolls have a No. 4 hit song in Don't Cha - quite possibly the song of this summer, with its catchy come-on, "Don't cha wish your girlfriend was hot like me?''

I recently hit Sin City, where I not only saw the newly-recruited Vegas troupe in action, but also met creator Robin Antin. Read my interview with her here: What's new, Pussycat? (Boston Herald)
