Dinah Shore has become an international affair with women from around the world set to descend on Palm Springs, Calif., March 31 to April 4 for sun, fun and shows.
So Club Skirts — celebrating 20 years of Dinah this spring — is bringing an international act into the mix with the Paradiso Girls taking the stage Saturday, April 3 at the Hilton.
Each member of the girl group — Aria, Chelsea, Kelly, Lauren and Shar — hails from a different country: France, the U.S., England, Barbados and the Philippines. “It’s great,” says American-born Chelsea Korka, “because we can related to people around the world.”

Perhaps best know for their single “Patron Tequila,” a club jam generating buzz about a drunk girls’ night out featuring Lil’ Jon and Eve, the girls also boast an eclectic sound.
The soon-to-be-released self-titled debut album is an edgy mix of pop, rock, R&B, hip-hop and even a taste of opera.
“It’s a little bit of everything,” says Korka. “We’re from all different parts of the world so we’re influenced by different music.”
The project also pulls together maverick, game-changing songwriter/producers including Gnarls Barkley’s Cee-Lo, Christopher “Tricky” Stewart, The-Dream, Sean Garrett, Fernando Garibay and Black Eyed Peas mastermind will.i.am.
“Everybody’s been waiting for the album but we keep finding more songs we want to record,” says Korka.
In addition to their ongoing work in the studio, the Paradiso Girls are known for putting on quite a show.
