You may think that after stripping down for thousands of women night after night, there's not much that could make a Chippendale blush.

But according to dancer Billy Jeffrey, embarrassing moments happen regularly for the topless, cuff-wearing performers.

"There is always something that happens that's embarrassing for either us or the show or whatever," says Jeffrey. "But it's all in good fun. You take five, six hundred girls every night, put them in Las Vegas, everybody's there to have fun. We're there to have fun too. Something's going to happen."

Chippendale Jace Crispin says the key is having a good sense of humour:

"You definitely can't do this job unless you laugh at yourself," says Crispin. "You always got to laugh at yourself and laugh at your friends. And that's what makes it fun to come to work."

Jeffrey and Crispin are just two of 72 cast members performing in 752 cities world-wide.

Crispin says one of his most shocking moments was when a fan took "a little bite" out of his behind, while Jeffrey recalls a fan climbing his hotel's fire escape to meet him.

After performing for 2,000,000 women a year, the Chippendales know a thing or two about sexy ladies. Jeffrey says it's all about inner beauty:

"I've definitely learned that your first attraction to somebody is really only skin deep. And I've had girls that I've thought, you know physically she's not the cutest girl in the room, but she ended up being the most attractive."

While Crispin admits that a sparkling smile is the key to his heart.

Looking ahead for the ladykillers - it's predicted that this year the 72 Chippendales will spend 79,725 hours in the gym, wear out 1,602 collars and 4,223 cuffs, tear apart 12,243 white tank tops while performing.

They will also travel more than 180,000 miles in their quest to entertain women around the world.
