Like many burlesque performers and strippers, Blaze Starr adopted her name upon entering the business. However, in her case, we reckon she would have been just fine keeping the name she was born with. Yes, there can’t be many people in the world whose chosen occupation reflects so aptly the name they were christened with than Fannie Belle Fleming. Maybe it was a self-fulfilling prophecy. Either way, Fannie also lived up to her stage name, incorporating a couch – rigged to burst into flames upon her recline – into her striptease.
