Believe it not, Shealagh Boyajian was painfully shy growing up. Now the beauty is onstage six nights a week, shining under the spotlight in Fantasy: The Strip’s Sexiest Tease at Luxor as one of the featured dancers. “Being with Fantasy has helped build my confidence and my performance,” says the Boston native.

Boyajian moved to Las Vegas in 2019 to attend a professional dance school. Before she even graduated, her talents helped land her gigs in the industry. She went on to dance in a couple different Strip shows, where she also added aerialist to her resume. But it was Fantasy that caught her eye when she first moved to town. “It was a dream to be a Fantasy girl; it is such an iconic Vegas thing,” she says. “And now here I am!”

Guests can catch Boyajian in almost every scene in the show, including the “Lose Control” number created especially for her, which spotlights her skills as an acrobat. “That’s the favorite part of my job,” Boyajian says. “I love that at Fantasy we’re promoted as individuals. … Anita (Mann, the producer) alters the show to fit the girls and highlight our talents. She highlights your personality in the show.”

There is no shying away anymore for Boyajian—she shines bright and confident in the Strip’s longest-running topless show. “Fantasy has given me the opportunity to become the person I want to be. I get to embody who I want to be. I’m in fantasyland!”
