Well this started last summer, three different people in two days said that I looked like Lara Croft (and now this thing is stuck to me! ;o)
Anyway, the joke is suddenly getting serious and now I've been asked to do a Lara Croft show for 3 mins (for a competition in April).
BUT my problem is that I've never played the game or watched the movies so I'm a little lost.......
Does anybody have any ideas of what to do?

OOH, a tomb raider routine. Doesn't one of the top competitors do that? I have to look it up. Anyhow, Brad is right, rent the movie for research - it is pretty decent.

Make sure you have a toned butt and are comfortable with wearing tight shorts ;)

and are used to wearing tight t-shirts and know how to handle a pistol ;)

I seriously need to get going with this thing..... I now saw the movie (I actually liked it!) and I'm mixing the music. Now please tell me if you know about if one of the Olympia competitors did a free posing as Lara Croft? (maybe I can get some ideas?)

Kelly Ryan did a Lara Croft routine at the Pittsburgh NPC Pro Show, September 2001.
Her outfit in the photo (Oxygen Magazine, February 2002) is a shiny black halter crop top with small shiny black shorts that have a sequin skull belt buckle. There is only one photo, but maybe you can dig up some footage now that you know who/what event to look for?
Good luck!

Nina, it would be neat to see photos of you as Lara Croft! Please share with us when you get them. May I also make a suggestion? As an outfit, you can wear a white jump suit and tie your hair in a pony tail...that was the promo outfit for the latest movie installment.

Lol Robert, not a problem!!
But I'm not there yet...... I'm still working on putting together the music and I've contacted a 3-4 times Miss Univers to help me with the chorography.
Getting there.......
