Burlesque dancer Dita Von Teese talks to MSN

One thing that's apparent about your performances is how elegant and sophisticated it is, especially compared to some of the more 'in your face' forms of adult entertainment. Why do you think adult entertainment has got so much more pornified over recent years?

It's a natural evolution, and the truth of the matter is, hard-core pornography has existed since the invention of the camera! The images exist as proof, and some of them were very hard-core... you can even see explicit orgy scene tin-types and even films from the early 1900s. And anyway, I think it's good that there are lots of options out there. My way certainly shouldn't be the only way!
