Burlesque is a inspiring, beautiful musical staring Christina Aguilera as Ali, a young singer/dancer that escapes her dull life in Iowa, Cher as Tess, sexy owner of the club Burlesque, Eric Dane as Markus, the "bad guy", and Cam Gigandet as Jack, the heartthrob.
Upon arriving in L.A. after purchasing a one-way ticket from Iowa, Ali immediately begins searching for her dream job: being a singer. With rejections crossed out in a local paper, Ali finds herself at the night club Burlesque, owned by Tess, a former singer/dancer herself. When Tess initially says "come audition some other time," Ali turns to her new friend Jack for a waitress position at the club.
Slowly, Ali starts climbing the ladder of success, but not without slipping on a few of the rungs. The other girls shun her, Markus is only interested in her fame, and the club starts going under. Tess struggles to keep her club and the girls together. Both need to make some careful choices and take some daring risks to live their dreams.
Written and directed by Steve Antin (The Goonies), Burlesque is a sexy musical tailored to the female audience.With an inspirational plot, soul touching songs and outrageous dancing, Burlesque is a romantic thriller that deserves to be enjoyed again and again by women above the age of thirteen.
