Synopsis
This film is a record of a burlesque show featuring striptease dancer Lovely Gay Dawn. The show begins with the vocalist singing while each dancer of the cast parades on stage. This is followed by a series of striptease dances with musical accompaniment. Between dances, the female dancers and male comedians perform comedy sketches and the vocalist sings several songs. Sketches include: Bobby Faye meeting a delusional drunk, a preacher preventing men and women from straying into a nudist club, a classroom full of adult children constantly being reprimanded by their teacher for sexual innuendos and Charlie Kraft introducing Bobby Faye to girls selling exotic foods. The show closes with a strip dance entitled "Desire," performed by Lovely Gay Dawn, another parade of all the dancers in the cast on stage.

Notes
Dancer Mary Andes was credited twice within the same onscreen cast list in the viewed print. According to NYSA, the alternate title of this film was Burlesque Flame. The application form in the U.S. copyright records includes a crossed-out, handwritten note listing the film's title as Hollywood Peep Show. However, this was replaced by the correct title Everybody's Girl. Everybody's Girl was reviewed under the title Hollywood Peep Show in The Exhibitor in 1951, but bears no relation to the 1953 release also titled Hollywood Peep Show (see below), which was directed by Lillian Hunt and featured comedian Leon De Voe.
Everybody's Girl was also released under the title Battle of Burlesque. A print under that title lists the opening title credit as follows: "Gorgeous Gay Dawn, 'Everybody's Girl' in Battle of Burlesque." Copyright records dated 1950 list the film's length as two reels, while NYSA records list the film's length as 4,375 feet. The viewed print was feature-length.
