strippergrams

Disrobing birthday messengers

A strippergram is a novelty service where someone delivers a message or greeting while performing a striptease, typically hired for bachelor parties, birthdays, or office pranks.

The performer arrives in costume—often as a police officer, nurse, or delivery person—before revealing the surprise.

The word blends stripper with telegram, echoing the older singing telegram tradition: They hired a strippergram for his fortieth birthday.
