The Queen of Burlesque popularly known as Dita Von Teese and famous for her 23-inch waist and sultry persona had recently swung by Kuala Lumpur.

The hour-glass personality who is synonymous with that enviable 23-inch waist was in town to grace a dinner organised by a luxury jeweller.

Sources told Astro Awani the dancer, model, costume designer and actress whose real name is Heather Renee Sweet and famed for being former Mrs Marilyn Manson's visit was kept under wraps for undisclosed reasons.

Whether or not, it is her over-the-top and raunchy image often portrayed on TV and prints abroad that led to this 'confidentiality', remains unknown.

Von Teese, a star famous for reviving burlesque in America, evidently (via her Instagram account) looked like she was having fun during the short trip.

Looking almost as if she’s up and about in town incognito, Von Teese traipsed around Kuala Lumpur decked in attrractive decent dresses that will make one go 'whoopee' at the sight of this curvaceous personality.

One photo from her Instagram account showed her with her iconic crimson red lips complete with her signature elegant coif, in floral knee-length dress complete with a scarf with caption “A postcard from Kuala Lumpur’s lush aviary”.

Von Teese also posted a snapshot of herself, in the same attire, with a graceful yet casual pose in front of a traditional Malay house. The photo reads: “Tourist day in Malaysia today”.
