[edit] Format
In each episode five contestants striptease to a music video as interview soundbites and photos reveal stories about each "pancer". For the first two seasons, the audience selected each episode’s winner by texting their vote. The third season used a format where judges selected the weekly winner. Each episode's winner received $200 and the opportunity to compete in a championship at the end of the season.
In October 2009 the show was launched in the U.K on MTV's new channel Viva. The show has a completly new look and currently broadcasts in double bill episodes. There is no cash prize on the UK version and there is no overall winner.
