Dita Von Teese

Dita Von Teese (born Heather Sweet in Rochester, Michigan on September 28, 1972) is a popular American burlesque artist. She is also engaged to the musician Marilyn Manson.

Von Teese is fond of wearing elaborate lingerie such as corsets and stockings, and, in her words, "puts the tease back into striptease" with long, complex dance shows complete with props and characters.

She was featured in Playboy magazine in 1999 and 2001.

She is also a leading fetish model and has been likened to a modern day Bettie Page. She also acts, in such movies as Romancing Sara and Matter of Trust, in which she is billed as Heather Sweet.
