Chippendales began driving women wild in Los Angeles in 1979 as the first-ever all-male dance troupe. Quickly, they became a pop culture phenomenon opening a club in New York and producing touring troupes that traveled across the world.  Their act is consistently touted for offering the greatest, most heart-pounding performances cultivated specifically for women. Today, the show’s flagship company plays nightly at the Rio All-Suite Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas and features celebrity guest stars such as supermodel, Tyson Beckford, who is currently headlining the production.   The touring company travels the world, pleasing the masses, and brining the party to the people.
Over the last 35 years, the men of Chippendales, have performed for more than 100 million women in over 100 countries, they’ve travelled more than 6.7 million miles while touring and on that long, hard journey they have torn off over 1.2 million shirts, worn 56,000 bowties and have been photographed more than 70 million times. The number of women who felt they “melted inside” remains incalculable but it’s definitely a lot.  The famous Chippendales calendar became the first all-male calendar targeted to women and has sold more than 10 million copies worldwide and has been printed in over nine languages. Thank goodness for 2016 as it marks the publication of a new Chippendales calendar.
