Nedra Ne'Quan pays tribute to the Great Joesephine Baker with New Orleans own "Bustout Burlesque" and received the name Perle Noire the Black Pearl. She has been featured in the L.A Times, Times Picayune and recently appeared on MTV's hit series Sweet Sixteen.

She is fully committed, dances like she knows what she's doing, and looks like she's having a great time. She was clearly born to be onstage. When Ne'Quan is up there, something is always happening. She also earns congratulations for executing an impressive split wearing spiked high heels.
