Dwarf stripper finds love



Some stories are too weird to pass up, and David Moye's article in The Huffington Post is definitely one of them:
When Kat Hoffman (photo) was growing up in Bellefontaine, Ohio, bullies were a big problem for her. Hoffman, 26, was born with a form of dwarfism that stunted her growth at just under four feet tall, and made her a target of teasing. “At school I felt like an outcast, people bullied me because of my size and I was angry at the world,” Hoffman told Barcroft Media. “High school was a difficult time. Other kids were rude and brutally bitchy. I dreaded school every day, as no one wanted to speak with me.”
However, when Hoffman turned eighteen, she discovered a way to make her short stature a big advantage, when she visited a local strip club where a friend worked. “By the end of the night, I was on stage in the nude,” Hoffman said, according to The New York Post. “It was such a buzz. During my first week of dancing I made a thousand dollars, so I decided to make a living out of it.”
Now Hoffman travels all over the world performing as Kat the Midget Stripper in sexy outfits made by her mother.
However, her sister, Renee, who also has the same form of dwarfism, has reservations about Hoffman's career choice. "I've been to her shows before, and they don't go there to see her, they go there to laugh at her," she said, according to the Daily Mail.
Hoffman doesn't care about the haters. “I call myself a smile producer, not an exotic entertainer,” she tells Barcroft TV. “I just want to put smiles on people’s faces.”
Hoffman says performing not only gave her confidence about her body, but it also helped her find true love in the form of her six-foot-tall army sergeant Eich Bushner (photo, bottom), who wanted to meet her after seeing her pictures online.
The two are now engaged, and Bushner said he's ready to spend the rest of his life with Hoffman, no matter what difficulties they might face. “The height difference does pose some problems, but nothing that we can’t handle,” Bushner said, according to InTouchWeekly.com.
Hoffman plans to spend five more years dancing before hanging up her pint-sized pasties for good. Still, she thinks her shaking her tiny tail feathers sends a positive message for anyone with a disability. “A lot of disabled people don’t feel sexy because of our handicaps, but I don’t think it’s necessary,” she told Barcroft TV. “Everybody is sexy in their own way and personality is all that matters. You have to have a heart, that’s really all it takes to be sexy in my book.”
Rico says she's cute, true, but tiny...
