Desnuda

A desnuda is a seminude, topless female performer covered in body paint who poses for photos in exchange for tips in the pedestrian plaza of New York City's Times Square. The desnudas typically wear thong underwear, high heels, and use red, white, and blue body paint to emulate the colors of the American flag. The performers are primarily Latina. In Spanish, desnuda means naked.[1]

This article is about the type of performer. For the album, see Desnuda (album).
