Not really Motor. I admit that no violinist in 50 years has made it to "Hendricks" stature, but there have been a number of "famous" violinists (and cellists) around. In the 70's there was Barbara Mandrell's hotter sister. And don't forget Charlie Daniels ("The Devil went down to Georgia"). Personally, I really like watching those Irish lasses fiddling along with the singers and dancers in those "Irish music" troops and a few of those women have multi-million dollar contracts now. Then there is YoYo Ma, net worth several 100 million - all from playing cello.
It may never make it as stripper music, but some people who play on strings.really do have big followings. And don't forget that principle violinists in many major symphonies make several million dollars a year, like the PL violinist who got suckered by the porn star.
Let's not forget Stephane Grappeli and his student, Jean Luc Ponty. I played the violin as a child, and was told by my teacher that I had great talent. He was very unhappy when I stopped taking lessons. When Jean Luc Ponty rose to fame, I followed his career. He was exceptionally talented. I'm glad I didn't take up with a porn star like this guy did, he fucked himself, hard. I have to laugh at the "pee suit" allegations. They probably did happen. Oh well.

Isn't that an oxymoron?

She's pretty hot, but not worth $10,000/month by any stretch. World-class Julliard-level talent and absolutely no common sense.
