"Sure you can call it 'burlesque,' but Kelly Garton's act with the samba troupe she founded, Hot Pink Feathers, runs the gamut from sizzling Bollywood dance numbers to theatrical stunts involving bunnies and jungles...Fact is, all that shimmy-shaking is a testament to the fact that making them laugh is just as important as making them drool."
SF WEEKLY, Nirmala Nataraj

"Hot Pink Feathers is a San Francisco-based Brazilian dance troupe that has its roots in traditional dance, with burlesque-style seeping in...Their aesthetic is similar to the 'exotics' of the 1950's and 1960's who incorporated ethnic dance into their striptease numbers, a tradition that can be traced back to Little Egypt and her hootchy-kootchy belly dances performed at the 1893 Chicago World's Fair."
Burlesque and the New Bump 'n Grind, Michelle Baldwin

"...the performers who offered more than the standard striptease stood out...Hot Pink Feathers, in feathers and ruffles, put a Brazilian spin on burlesque with samba hip switches and shimmies."
DANCE MAGAZINE, Heather Wisner

"...excellent dancers with a samba flavor."
SF MAGAZINE, Karen Solomon

"Leaders on the scantily clad front, the Hot Pink Feathers are a samba-based troupe who shake it to anything from bossa nova to Klezmer music."
THEATRE BAY AREA, Amber Adrian

"Hot Pink Feathers, where Brazilian dance meets burlesque...Jumpin' gyrations, it's bump 'n grind time, as they shook what their mama gave 'em!"
BAY TIMES, Sister Dana Van Iquity

"...vaudeville vixens"

"Kellita of Hot Pink Feathers offers a new take on a burlesque classic -- risque dancing but with an emphasis on humor and fun. The act has real class, it's naughty and at the same time reveals her sincere beauty. Highly entertaining."
