Dr. Sketchy's Anti-Art School offered a tribute to the original alt model, with the equally inspirational Darenzia donning some Bettie-inspired outfits for an afternoon of art modeling. Though it's not quite the same as being in the presence of the actual Bettie Page, well, we're pretty sure it's close.

What could possibly be hotter than an art cabaret event with booze, burlesque perfomers, and awesome giveaways? An art cabaret event with even more booze, more burlesque, more giveaways, and live naked drawing action! We stopped by the opening party for Dr. Sketchy's Anti-Art Show at Rapture in NYC's East Village last night and while we were there, our video maven Richard Blakeley managed to corner Dr. Sketchy's founder and Fleshbot crush object Molly Crabapple and get her to spill all the dirty secrets of life drawing, burlesque, and the ideology (or lack thereof) behind Dr. Sketchy's. We may not know much about art, but we know what we like—and when the art includes hot naked boobage, we like it even more.

Last night, New York City saw its first ever Cooch Party, a self-labeled "Sexxy Ass Industrial Punk Elektro Rock Circus Porno Party." With live bands, multiple dance DJs, fetish and burlesque performances, and a varied assortment of NY porn luminaries getting down and dirty at venerable Lower East Side drag cabaret institution Lucky Cheng's, the whole thing sounded a little too intense for our delicate sensibilities (and besides, we had to stay in and watch the "America's Next Top Model" finale). So instead of going ourselves, we sent roving Fleshbot operative Nick McGlynn to document the insanity. All that survived was this video that seems to prove that they delivered on what was promised—music, makeouts and some twirling boobies. (Eagle-eyed viewers may note a cameo from the tassels of one Molly Crabapple.) Best of all, the whole thing was for charity, as the party doubled as a fundraiser for victims of the Darfur genocide. Don't ever let it be said that pervy people don't care about stuff ... besides being pervy, of course.
