David Ford Productions on Instagram: "Before the ‘hoochie mama’ there was the hoochie coochie dancer — shimmying her way through carnivals, scandal, and history. From Little Egypt to Josephine Baker, these women shook up society one sensual swirl at a time. 💃🏽✨ #HoochieHistory #BurlesqueRoots #BlackBurlesque #JosephineBaker #VintageVixens #CarnivalQueens #HoochieMama #DanceLegends #CulturalRoots #ThrowbackSeduction"

Michael Greenwood on Instagram: "Education time for my hoochie kings: The word first showed up in the 1890s. “Hoochie-coochie” was some kind of belly dance / erotic thing. Wild, cuz I didn’t even know they knew about sex back then. Now it just means the best kind of shorts. Link in bio for my favs. #gravycode"
