Who doesn’t want stronger and better orgasms? And cock rings, bondage and leather, oh my! Oh, and you can never have too many strap-ons and vibrators, ladies. Nudge, nudge.
The 12th annual Taboo Naughty but Nice Sex show is back this month and is sexier and naughtier than ever. With over 20,000 Calgarians pillaging through the doors over the four day event, the show has to stay fresh each year.
This year’s Taboo is featuring a different type of performer and you may know her from such scandals as the Jesse James cheating on Sandra Bullock fiasco. Yes, the heavily-tattooed Michelle "Bombshell" McGee is making an appearance at this year’s event and she’s bringing along a few half naked friends.
The self-professed "world’s most notorious mistress" is bringing along some sex advice for the ladies and gentleman as well, and take it from her because if there is one thing McGee knows, it’s sex.
"Learn how to please yourself first," she says. "If you don’t know what feels good, how will your partner know?"
Not only is it the best advice she can give but, this seemingly simple lesson is the best sex tip she’s ever received, too.
Besides appearing in every major tattoo and entertainment publication in North America – not just for her tattoos but the Bullock scandal too – the ‘bombshell’ is a featured guest headlining Australia’s massively explosive ‘Sexpo’’. Now she’s bringing her tantalizing "soft-core" erotic act to Calgary.
"The scandal really turned my life upside down. I will always be known as the tattooed girl who broke up Sandra Bullock’s marriage," she explains. "Being so recognizable has its challenges as well as its benefits. I can’t really go anywhere without being talked about and because of my tattoos. I don’t blend into society too well."
But before you feel too sorry for McGee, she adds that she’s really enjoying the turn her life has taken.
"I get to travel the world and do what I love most; perform. ...Our show combines sex, latex and power tools to stimulate your libido and it’s arousing for guys, girls, straight, gay, alone or with your partner," she says. "It’s fun for every adult."
Show producer Kevin Blackburn agrees, saying the show is tailored to anyone who is sexual.
"We have anyone and everyone from 18 years old to people in their 60s and 70s," Blackburn says. "Couples, young, old, straight, gay, experienced or inexperienced. The show is truly for any sexuality, we just want people to come and be themselves, whoever they want to be."
Besides McGee and her lady friends, the show will also feature burlesque performers, a pole dancing competition, a tattoo competition, a male revue, various seminars and of course, plenty of sex toys and other fun goodies for purchase.
"Bring your friends, make lots of time because there is a lot to see," Blackburn advises. "A lot of people make the show a starting point for their night. It’s a lot of fun."
Blackburn says the exhibition attracts about 70 per cent women and there will be plenty of things for the ladies to see.
GayCalgary Magazine will have a booth at the Calgary show now for the 10th year in a row, where the ISCCA will be fundraising for their charities by offering visitors to get their photo taken with a Drag Queen or "Fetish Dude", among other things. You can look forward to seeing many more booths, some familiar from previous years, and some brand new.
