Crazy Girls Tickets


Elizabeth "Lizzie" Grantham has that girl-next-door look and is the newest resident of Green Valley after buying a newer repo. The Memphis-born dancer has lived in Las Vegas since the age of 12 and is the second to the youngest of nine children but she has performed in "Crazy Girls" at the Riviera Hotel & Casino for three years.


"I was born in Memphis, and I actually began my dance training there at age 8 in this little dance studio. It wasn't until I arrived in Las Vegas,where I went to junior high and high school, that I got serious about dance. I learned a lot about choreography at the Las Vegas Academy of Performing Arts where I attended high school and was a dance major." Liz is trained in jazz, hip-hop, modern and ballet. Aside from going to dance classes Liz enjoys taking Muay Thai kickboxing.  


"This is my fourth year in 'Crazy Girls, where I am now the line Captain, I love the 'CrazyGirls."She continued, "This was my first topless revue but it doesn't matter. I don't even think about it. The 'Crazy Girls' is a great show. The hours are great and the people are great to work with. I learned about the opening at my dance studio through another 'Crazy Girl' in 2005. I was surprised that there are as many women as men at Crazy Girls, we actually get mostly couples who come to see our show."


Liz said, "I used to love to go to San Diego and visit my uncle. Living in Las Vegas was a great opportunity for me because of the weather and the close proximity to my siblings in Las Vegas and Arizona." Her motto is "Don't worry, be happy."


Liz said, "I take a lot of dance classes and work out a lot at the gym. I go out a lot of nights for a drink – it's a lot of fun. I like the Rum Jungle, PURE, Rain and Mixx. I like to stay out late. I'm pretty happy doing my hobbies like mountain biking, swimming, working out at the gym, tennis lessons and snowboarding. My dog is a German shepherd mix. My favorite movie is "The Wizard of Oz." The latest book she read was "The Art of Happiness" by the Dali Lama. Breakfast for her is coffee. My last vacation was in Helsinki, Finland. I love to travel and am going to travel all over the world. If it was too be my last meal I would order donuts and Starbucks. My best friend says that I am funny dependable and a good listener. My GPA in high school was 3.5."


She added, "I have no plans for marriage at this time. I have one little sister and we're the two babies. Growing up with all these brothers and sisters means you grow up to be more responsible. I had a stay-at-home mom and she met my dad when he was in the U.S. Marine Corp. He has a master's degree in business administration and is age 66. My mom was from Chicago and my dad is from Little Rock, Arkansas. My brother is an engineer in Arizona and does very well. Another sister is a high school French teacher and my other sister married an attorney. In Green Valley I live close to my family."
