Showgirls can finally be recognized for its achievements in the realm if high camp. Elizabeth Berkley (at the time, best-known as “Jessie” from the sitcom Saved by the Bell) steps into the role of Nomi, a not-so-wide-eyed woman determined to make it big on the Las Vegas stage. First, she takes a job at the Cheetah Club, careful not to do anything that might get her branded a “whore,” even though she gives “Zack” (a character in the film who coincidentally has the same name as Jessie’s former Saved by the Bell classmate) quite a lapdance in the club and later on, a hilariously enthusiast ride in the pool of his mansion.
