Chick Who Introduced Stripping Dies At The Age Of 78
SAN FRANCISCO — Legendary stripper Carol Doda, who helped introduce topless entertainment more than 50 years ago, has died at age 78. Friend Ron Minolla says she died Monday in San Francisco of complications related to kidney failure. Doda went topless in 1964 at the Condor Club and soon changed every nightspot on busy Broadway. She left the club in 1985 and later owned a lingerie store. Doda, known for her augmented bust, rode onto stage atop a piano on an elevator platform, debuting the same day President Lyndon B. Johnson drew half a million people in a visit to San Francisco. It wasn’t long before the big news in town was “The Girl on the Piano.” An illuminated sign on the club in Doda’s likeness later became a landmark.
Day 1 of Internet 2.0 begins with a shout out to Carol Doda. The OG of stripping. A true pioneer of the game. The Rosie The Riveter of titties. The Susan B. Anthony of lap dances. 50 years ago she decided she was gonna trot those monster tits and dinner plate nipples out there on stage and thats exactly what she did. Carol knew she had a pair of rockin tits that put all the other girls to shame and it was her right and privilege to jiggle those things for cash. A trailblazer in every sense of the word. Without Carol Doda, who knows if strip clubs even exist. Who knows if you ever get the chance to cum in your mesh shorts in the back of Sue’s Rendezvous? Who knows if you ever get to see Jamaica from FlashDancers do the Corona Bottle Trick? Part of every man’s 20s is spending way too many nights and way too much money at strip clubs falling in love with chicks who are just straight up milking you for your money and without Carol Doda that would never have happened.
We also would never get Jessica Alba in Sin City:
We would never have gotten Jesse Spano banging dudes in a swimming pool because “Showgirls” wouldnt even be a movie (NSFW):
And we wouldnt have Demi Moore flossing her punani with a neck tie and grinding up on the pole in Striptease:
Who knows what bachelor parties would look like without strip clubs? Life as we know it would be completely altered if Carol Doda doesnt whip her tits out on top of piano. So I think I speak for all of us when I say thank you, Carol. From the bottom of my heart, thank you.
PS – Also shout out to Carol for being hot back in the 60s. There are very few chicks that can stand up to modern day hotness, you know? Like chicks that were hot from the 60s and 70s dont usually look that hot today. Carol Doda stands the test of time. Like Faye Dunaway in the 60s or Farrah Fawcett in the 70s
