Hello there,
This is my first post on this blog so guess I had better introduce myself.
My name is 'Lorna Liza', yes that is my real name. For the last few years I have blogged under my pseudonym 'Scarlett Blushes'. I was Scarlett for ten wonderful years and she allowed me to have lots of fun and frolics. You can view the blog on

I was a member of the Cats Pyjamas Burlsque troupe

This was my profile:
Scarlett Blushes has always been a vintage girl at
heart. She likes nothing better than getting dressed up and bringing fun and
sparkle into people’s lives.
Scarlett started appearing in shows and pantomimes
from the tender age of 3. Her love of Hollywood glamour and her idol Judy
Garland influenced her moving into musical comedy for over 10 years.
Scarlett works tirelessly both on stage and off and
can often be seen promoting the Cats Pyjamas, supporting fellow artistes and
friends, attending events or updating her own blog ‘Fun and Frolics on the high
Teese with Miss Scarlett Blushes’ which can be viewed at
scarlettblushes1.blogspot.com
Scarlett wants to bring
old school glamour into burlesque but with her own cheeky twist, as when she is
good she is very, very good but when she is bad she is sensational!” .
Here are a few photographs that show some of the fun I had throughout the years.

The Cats Pyjamas performed their last show, after ten years, in April. 'Thanks for the Mammaries'
I decided it was time to say goodbye to Miss Scarlett Blushes.
There was a lot of changes going on and I thought hard about what name I wanted and the image I wanted to portray and decided that I should just be me!!
I have always been a little off beat, kooky, or just plain weird!! I have been married since I was 24years old to 'Pirate Mick', who I met when he directed me in the show 'April In Paris'.
We love going out and to events, often dressing the part!

I love all animals but especially my beautiful dogs and cats that have been my pets. Our current fur baby is the gorgeous 'Lulu', a rescued tabby who often is referred to as 'Looby Lu'.
