<\/p>\nAn extreme stripper in Benidorm who puts on "graphic" shows featuring pegging, lollipops and full frontal nudity was "inspired" by Sticky Vicky, she and her partner claim. The iconic performer \u2013 whose real name is Victoria Mar\u00eda Arag\u00fc\u00e9s Gadea passed away age 80 earlier this week of heart failure.<\/p>\n
Daily Star spoke to modern day sex show performer Jade Benidorm, @jadebenidorm, and her partner Frank the Stag Man, @frankthestagman, about the woman who started the Spanish town\u2019s extreme entertainment sector \u2013 and they claim she\u2019s had a major impact on all Benidorm sex shows.<\/p>\n
Sticky Vicky spent 35 years on stage show included magical acts like appearing to shoot razor blades and ping pong balls out of her genitals. Now, sex shows across Benidorm are more extreme than anything you\u2019ll find in Britain.<\/p>\n

In the wake of Sticky Vicky\u2019s death, Frank and Jade sat down to tell the Travel team about the performer's impact on the strip scene in Spain. Frank said: "I think Sticky Vicky being here and the type of show created what is normal here and what is acceptable."\u201cJade said herself that she\u2019s always felt that it\u2019s OK to push the boundaries here so I think there is a bit of inspiration there because Jade\u2019s show is so graphic."<\/p>\n

Jade noted about Vicky\u2019s show: "It\u2019s always been one of those things you need to see." The pair also noted that people often expect them to be in competition with the Sticky Vicky performance.<\/p>\n
Frank, who often gets Jade to strip for the stag dos he organises, said: "We always say no, they\u2019re both fantastic shows and they\u2019re both very different. Vicky\u2019s is more of a magic show."<\/p>\n

Jade added: "Her\u2019s is more cabaret" and Frank replied: "Jade\u2019s is more in-your-face sexual."<\/p>\n
However, they say that they both admired the older performer\u2019s show \u2013 even now that her daughter has taken over. Jade said: "She\u2019s keeping the show going to honour her mum, that\u2019s important for Maria [Sticky Vicky\u2019s daughter]."<\/p>\n
Despite his stripper wife's show being more extreme and graphic, Frank noted that Vicky's show was a major part of what made Benidorm successful and paved the way for performances like Jade's, describing her as "such an important part of what has grown Benidorm into what it is". He added that he works with hundreds of groups a week and says "people mention Sticky Vicky all the time". <\/p>\n
Frank believes that Sticky Vicky has had such a huge impact on the town that she deserves a plaque to recognise her work. Plus, Frank and partner Jade have been producing a show interviewing the biggest stars of Benidorm which will feature the icon talking about her rise to fame. The show \u2013 Benidorm: The Greatest Story Never Told \u2013 is set to be released on December 21 on their website Stagman.TV. the first episode, named 'Before Sticky', will feature the legend in her own home alongside her daughter, Maria.<\/p>\n
