Stars Who Danced For Their Money

Paris Hilton

Paris Hilton is a television personality and socialite, famous for her trademark blonde tresses and ditsy persona. Paris was filmed in an adult video that was later called 1 Night in Paris. In 2004 the video was released. It was primarily filmed in night vision. Paris got a huge bump in interest after the video leaked.

The socialite played up her wildcard persona on The Simple Life, a reality show with Nicole Richie. She also released music singles, and a book called Confessions of an Heiress that became a New York Times Best Seller. Hilton took on a number of small roles in film and television, often playing a version of herself.

Blac Chyna

American model and entrepreneur Blac Chyna got her mainstream start as a model and video vixen. She’s been Nicki Minaj’s stunt double in Kanye West’s “Monster,” and was featured in Tyga’s “Rack City.” Chyna has also branched out into beauty, with her own adhesive eyelash line, an online boutique called 88fin, and The Lashed Bar in Los Angeles.

Before her mainstream career, Blac Chyna was a dancer at Miami’s King of Diamonds gentlemen’s club. When she was asked what she would be doing if she wasn’t famous, Chyna answered, “If I wasn’t famous […] I don’t know. I would probably be working in the strip club. […] I’m just keeping it real. I can’t do nothing else.”
