"Drag queen extraordinaire Hedda Lettuce traveled down the turnpike to star with a cast of hunky unknowns who flex their muscles, shake their booties, and plot against the others all in an effort to win the coveted Stripper of the Year title in Philadelphia. And they’ll do whatever it takes to win. Director/producer Fred Caruso gives us exaggerated stereotypes who we love to hate: naive straight-acting Ken; evil but cute twinkie Chase; “Jersey Shore” killer-body Vinnie T; exhibitionist ”straight" guy Connor and “gay-for-pay” Russian ballet dancer Kieran. Testosterone rises, tempers flare, and... clothes are shed as comedy turns to nastier antics in the dressing room and hilarious performances on stage making for a genuine laugh-out-loud experience. A clever parody of Reality TV celebrity judges and behind-the-scenes interviews with contestants are the film’s genuinely funny high points. Despite hilarious attempts to sabotage the show, the winner takes all with a very happy but surprising ending." Quoting Rexford Ferrante from the 2011 Philadelphia QFEST site.
