Dita Von Teese (1972) is an American burlesque dancer, model, costume designer, entrepreneur and occasional actress. Von Teese got her stage name by adopting the name Dita as a tribute to silent film actress Dita Parlo. For her breakthrough December 2002 Playboy cover, she was required to have a surname, so she chose Von Treese from the phonebook. In the magazine, this was misspelled as Von Teese, which she decided to stick with. She is thought to have helped repopularize burlesque performance and was formerly married to Marilyn Manson. Von Teese participated in the Eurovision Song Contest 2009 in Moscow, Russia, as part of the stage performance for the German entry Miss Kiss Kiss Bang.
