had a small part in the film. Popular male dancers who work in the
Asbury Park area, James, Pedro and Alan play musclemen in Mae West's
show. Popular drag queen from Milwaukee Jaymes Mansfield played Mae West
and also gay character Greg Tyler in the film.

hand picked each member of the cast and auditioned over 600 actresses
to play Jayne Mansfield before he found ingenue Hailey Heisick. Ms.
Heisick is a London and New York stage actress who astonished Ferruccio
with her dramatic acting talent and curves. There is alot of talented
