We would like to pay the late and great Gypsy Rose Lee a heart filled Happy Birthday! The stripper and author who basically opened up the world of Burlesque to the masses is truly a pioneer. Actresses like Cher and Christina Aguilera in their burlesque portrayals are at most a flash in a pan when compared to the great Gypsy Rose Lee, the burlesque queen and striptease artist who had to do some unspeakable things in her climb to the top.

Her Birthday was January 8th but wishing a late birthday is better then no wish at all.

Happy Birthday Gypsy Rose Lee!
