The Devil's Playground burlesque and cabaret show recently held a "Ladies of Sci-Fi" gig at LA's Bordello, and alongside Barbarella, Aeon Flux and (a shockingly hot) Ripley from Aliens, Nintendo's favorite blonde bounty hunter made an appearance that would horrify the ESRB.

I dont remember Samus having full-color sleeves.

Portrayed by Courtney Cruz, the plot of the work-dangerous segment seems to revolve around Samus Aran progressively losing more and more of her suit. Either it's a commentary on the increasingly ludicrous notion that Ms. Aran must begin each game without any of the items she picked up in her last adventure, or they just couldn't come up with any other viable reason to show off her funbags.

Either way, I haven't been this turned on by a Nintendo character since I first saw Kirby inhale an entire Snake.
