My s foils are locked in attack position!

Members of the 501st Legion would be so proud of her! Nice. Very nice.

Vader is also very proud.

Too bad she wasn't sporting a gold bikini under there...
Otherwise, Outstanding!

"The ability to draw a naked cartoon character is insignificant next to the power of the live stripper."

High-heeled boots and Stormtrooperhelmet makes a clumsy stripper

"Aren't you a little naked to be a stormtrooper?"

@Bookfisher

"Stripping out of Trooper armor ain't like dustin' crops, boy! Without precise stripping she could fall right through the stage, or bounce too close to a super nerd and that'd end your boner real quick, wouldn't it?"

Meh.

She / He, looks like a Tranny. Seriously, I'm not trying to be difficult or wreck it for anyone. "It" just looks like a drag queen with boobs, aka tranny, to me.

That and "It" was about as graceful as a brick in a blender. The whole thing felt like an impending car accident. I couldn't bare to turn away but couldn't stand what I was seeing. I was waiting for her to fall and for the video to get funny, and then It took off the helmet and the whole thing felt like a bad geek drag show.

When the helmet came off, I thought it was a man.

I find you lack of armor arousing.

she just looked awkward trying to be sexy in the costume..

TK421! Why aren't you at your pole?

"Get in there, you big furry oaf! I don't care what you smell!"

It's a guy, has to be, there was not a damn thing sexy about that striptease. It was just unfortunate.

WHOSE RESPONSBILE THIS???

You're all clear, babe, now blow my thing and go home!

Don't say that! girls are just starting to listen to our requests for this kind of goofy stuff.

Good I'm not the only one who thought "It" was/is a "guy". I want to think this is sexy but it's just not. Even if that is a woman it's still awkward and hard to watch.

And I thought they smelled bad on the outside!

Han: "Look he's making a run for that chick dressed as a Storm trooper"

Obi-wan: "That's no chick."

Did I just see a tranny? Sure as hell looked like it.

Stormtranny is more like it

Seriously dude, it's a dude...

Damn you Rob, are you blind?
GAWD MY FUCKING EYES!

"Adam said: Stormtranny is more like it"

Stormtranny... oh man thats THUPER!

Shites that made me laugh. And for the record I know a few Queens who would have done a MUCH better job than this woman (if it was) did.

So does this answer the question as to whether stormtroopers are clones?

Should've been a Samus Costume.

-You mean it controls your actions?

-Partially. But it also obeys your commands...if you pay an extra 20

Yeah, I thought it was a guy too.

Sexual Confusion leads to anger. Anger leads to surgery. Surgery leads to....suffering.

I find your lack of clothes disturbing.

@JOE
But can't they wear sensible sandals, so we dont have to worry about them falling trough windows

So this is how democracy dies, with thunderous striping

Is that...legal?

P.S.-dont give me any crap for dropping a prequel quote-its just the first one that came to mind!

Lord almighty was that awkward....

This is not the stripper* you're looking for.

*Strooper?

It may in fact be a chick after all. If you click on the video and go to You Tube it says the woman's name is Roxy Velvet, and upon some minor internet digging it seems like she is a woman, very awkward but a woman.

I stand corrected. It still doesn't make it any sexier for me.

I'm ashamed of everyone who's bitching. Ay chick who's willing to dress up as a Stormtrooper -- and it's clearly a chick -- and then strip should be held in the highest regard.

Of course it's a woman underneath the armor. How Metroid.

It's a chick. looking at it on a 50" HD screen. Look at the crotch, the thigh-to-calf proportions... Chick.

Not my cup of tea... but I applaud the lady for giving back to the nerd community.

...and for the fact that stripping out of a stormtrooper costume has to be insanely hard.

No, Rob, no. Not "Ay (sic) chick who's willing to dress up as a Stormtrooper and then strip should be held in the highest regard." Not at all. Its not like she did this for fun, or respect of the material. She was paid. Probably paid quite well. If the money is good, girls will wear whatever you want and then take it off. That's not special.

And finally - "We're going in and we're going in full throttle."
"At that speed, are you able to pull out in time?"

@maachubo bloody hell mate, high-horse some?

Of course she got paid; she's a professional burlesque stripper. She still deserves praise for giving it a go; hardly her standard line of work.

"Amateur night at Toshi Station. You will never find a more wretched hive of scum and villainy."

@Manka Cat

Brilliant!

OK, everything else aside, the disco-ball stormtrooper helmet off to the left side is awesome.

Now THAT was pathetic. In the race to see which is more attractive: Nude Marge Simpson or Stormtranny everyone loses. It's a tie for last place.

The only people that say that is not a tranny are the people that "finished" before the clip did.

After watching that I now know that "This is our most desperate hour. Help me, Obi-Wan Kenobi; you're my only hope."

"SteveD said: @maachubo bloody hell mate, high-horse some?"

Yes. Some.

I think that, due to limitations of text-based communication, my tone of voice and half-smile don't show through, and as a result my posts seem much angrier than intended. Its just that we see more and more of this sort of thing, and in more mainstream venues. So I think that we, as the ultimate financiers of this industry, could demand a higher class of stripper, instead of immediately devouring anything remotely feminine and nerdy.

Looking at the above paragraph it appears that I am back on the aforementioned horse. Therefore I make the following peace offering:
Two StripTroopers meet up outside Mos Eisley cantina.
Trooper 1: "Well?"
Trooper 2: "Han shot first."

* "Impressive. Most impressive."

* "Your father was seduced by the Dark Side of the Force... because of the stormtrooper strippers."

* "Luke. Help me take this mask off."

* "Obi Wan has taught you well."

Respect, guys. If there's one thing I've purchased with all those singles, it's the realization that anyone who takes off their clothes in front of strangers deserves mass respect. It takes guts to do that, and she deserves praise. And if she doesn't fit your boring plastic comic book vision of what a woman should look like, that's your problem and keep it to yourself.

at first i thought the thing was going to turn out to be some drunk guy on a dare but after seeing her take off the helment the fear is gone though was sad she was not wearing the legedary gold bikini. and kudos for managing to strip wearing storm tropper armour

How did my striptease get online?!

Props to strippy dishin it up nerdy, but yeah, those were some pretty awkward, clumsy "sexy" moves in that gear. Looked like she got her poses from that Black Stallion video from a couple weeks ago.

It's a trap!

I just swallowed my own puke as the helmet came off.
That Stormtrooper has something the other Female Stormtrooper do not: A PENIS!!!

That's a dude.

Decide you must, how to strip best. If you strip, help them you could; but you would destroy all for which they have fought, and suffered.

"It?" Really? Even if she is a drag queen / transgender person (and I'm pretty sure she's not), she certainly deserves the same pronouns as everyone else.

"It" isn't something you call humans.

Pet peeve. Carry on!

She should have kept that mask on.

Totally great though- hilarious.

Is that Bob Hoskins at 5:32?

@maachubo You seem to be labouring under some misconceptions. This is not 'aimed at us', it is the launch and promotion of a Stormtrooper-based art exhibition in Notting Hill (see artwars.com).

As for everyone else who seems to have forgotten how to use Google, yes it is a woman; Roxy Velvet, a burlesque dancer from London.

It would have been sexy if the armor hadn't been so awkwardly hard to get out of.

That really needed the Imperial March playing to top it all off.

@SteveD--I googled Roxy Velvet yesterday, and the verdict is still out. She looked quite attractive in some of the pictures I saw, but she also looked very much like a man in some others.

Tranny or not, Jim Cox wins!

"TK421! Why aren't you at your pole?"

I love it when something takes you by surprise and you LOL.

“These hip gyrations — too accurate for sandpeople. Only imperial stormtroopers are so precise.”

"SteveD said:

I see. Very well then, I stand corrected. Er..carry on.

"But sir, nobody worries about upsetting a droid."
"That's because droids don't pull peoples arms outta their sockets when they don't get a decent tip. Strippers have been known to do that."

"I find your lack of pants disturbing.."

I get that you like the idea of a stormtrooper stripper. I've seen some very hot ladies at cons that do wonders for the armor and they could make even the most negative of us drool if they stripped. This is just pandering to nerds. It's not sexy. The ending had nothing to do with the theme. I expect better from a Burlesque Queen, heck, or an average stripper.

Sorry, I have expectations for stripteases.

Well, since so many have expressed dislike for her, I'll just say it:

I'd do her.

No, she's not the best stripper I've ever seen, but she seems open-minded, and willing, and fun. That's worth a lot to me.

You guys can go back to the plethora of dim-witted chicks at cons wearing Leia slavegirl outfits. I'll take this one.

Wow. I almost never feel the need to comment, but damn.
This may not be the most graceful burlesque dance, but do you realize the variables she's working with here? She didn't do that bad a job, and deserves props for pulling this off. I know I'd look a damn mess and fall on my face if I was expected to wear a bulky costume like that, with something obscuring most of my vision, with high heels, and expected to do a sexy dance and strip. Something bothers me about a bunch of guys sitting on their ass in front of a computer ridiculing a girl who has guts, more skill than most, and sex appeal.
And whats with the transphobic comments? Transgendered people are not "tranny"s and not "it"s. Even if you question a persons biological sex, you use the pronoun that matches the gender they are showing as. Drag queens are still "she".

@Leegirl
Drag queens are guys in drag. I'm not about to refer to them as she.
However, I think she did a bang-up job considering what she had to work with.

@LeeGirl Well-stated on the transphobia in some of the comments.

I had the weird feeling that once the mask came off, it was going to be Danny Choo under there, and I was going to say, "Wow, Danny has a sexy little shimmy going on here!"

@LeeGirl
Thank you. :) My sentiments exactly.

Stormstripper?

Finally, Luke Skywalker has something to do besides bullseye womprats in his T-16...

I'm with everyone who felt if should have been the leia gold bikini under there. (And for extra credit, the leia hair style under the helmet.)

Whose idea was it to stick a storm trooper stripper in the display window at Ikea? Talk about awkward.

that's a man, a man in drag flesh suit with a japan logo on it in a storm trooper outfit. the build is a man, i've seen enough women in my life to know what a man in drag looks like, or was it the other way around. i keep getting my life confused.
