Review: Cirque du Burlesque - SchmidtySays.Com - October 2011:
“Divertida Devotchka juggles with AC/DC’s Big Balls while effortlessly shedding her clothing. This classic pin-up plays a professional touch me, tease me, and please me game that I could watch all day if she let me.”
Meet the Contributors Feature - Pin Curl Magazine - August 2011
Featured on Dubé juggling blog by Kyle Petersen “The Brooklyn Juggler” - August 2011: … “Juggling mistress Divertida Devotchka of the Vixens of Vaudeville shows us that scarf juggling can be mysterious and erotic.”
Performed live on WFAA for Hot Rods & Heels Promo - May 2011
Review: Hot Rods & Heels - SchmidtySays.Com - May 2011:
"Divertida Devotchka and Femme Vivre LaRouge danced a deckhand’s duet in sassy sailor suits. They paraded up the aisles winking and waving all the way towards the stage. Once the routine was underway, their comedic edge added an imaginative flair that filled the room with claps and laughs."
Review: Cirque du Burlesque – SchmidtySays.Com - February 2011 – “Divertida Devotchka & Arnie “Raging Bull” Murphy wrestled out their frustrations in a contest of wit and brawn. Divertida Devotchka proved “anything you can do I can do better,” as her and the “Raging Bull” faced off in battle. At every turn Divertida challenged Arnie’s abilities; she crushed him in arm wrestling and drank a beer while juggling. Her stripping tactic diverted Arnie’s attention long enough to win the day. Which proves stripping can come in handy in any precarious situation. Their act was funny, original and full of zest.”
