Miss Exotic Oregon

There are strip clubs scattered all over Oregon and since Portland is the largest city in the state you can find most of the clubs here. There are about 30 or so clubs in Portland.....of various sizes.
Every year dancers compete in the Miss Oregon Exotic competition and I went to check out the finale last night.
I think 18 girls performed (I missed the first one) and at the end the dancer that won last year, Phoenix did her thing.
Some of the dancers were meh but some were freakin' AMAZING. Just wooooow. Upon entering Dantes, where the competition was held you got handed a plastic bead necklace to give to your fave dancer.
I had like four or five favorites, my beads went to Nia that is a dancer at the Golden Dragon. I loved her energy and her smile.
Of course she was super pretty too and a really good dancer.
Towards the end she climbed up high on the pole and she lit the ends of her heels on fire, the lights got dimmed and all you saw were sparkles flying.
In order to place in this competition you should work on a theme/presentation besides just doing the normal two songs on stage with some pole tricks. I personally look at posture, how well the girls move and pole technique. I do not like jerky fast movements, I prefer slower and seamless.
Last year's winner Phoenix put on a whole rock show last night with singing and like 20 back up dancers.
One of the presenters was 2020s winner Axel (she won doing a Clockwork Orange theme) and the other presenter was a guy that puts on all the dancer competitions around town (there are several), they referred to all the competitors as dancers which I love. All the girls were appreciated verbally. I feel that stripper is somewhat derogatory and sometimes used by people that feel they are better than "some stripper". Newsflash bitch - you ain't better. You just sorry so sit down.
Anyhow.....great evening!
