All about Jessabelle Thunder

Recently crowned Miss Exotic World and Queen of Burlesque at the Burlesque Hall of Fame, Jessabelle Thunder has performed worldwide for more than a decade. Thunder has shared the stage with famous singer Lizzo and Dita Von Teese, widely considered the greatest burlesque performer alive.

Born and raised in Los Angeles, she first took a burlesque class in 2009, and quickly rose up the ranks in the celebrity capital of the USA. She has since featured in many of the world’s biggest burlesque festivals as a competitor and headliner, including New Orleans, Miss Hollywood, and Viva Las Vegas. When she’s not competing on stage, she helps educate the next generation of burlesque artists, with her upcoming Cape Town workshops selling out weeks in advance.

The night features Jessabelle Thunder performing some of the most sought-after acts that made her the star she is today, with choreographed moves, captivating teases, and show-stealing charisma. She is joined by an MC and a guest DJ supplying Afrobeats, R&B, and Afro-house rhythms to further energise the room, and even more surprise burlesque performers.
