As part of her indentured servitude to Jabba The Hutt, Princess Leia Organa was forced to take part in the Galactic Dance Off, accompanied by two Twi'lek backup dancers.

I am very much looking forward to what you come up with, Chewie. There is potentially a large amount of just Disney canon characters who would qualify as entertainers, much less those from the former Expanded Universe. I personally am hoping that with Black Series Jar Jar readily available at the moment that someone attempts a post ROTJ Jar Jar as a street clown...

When his father was killed by fellow pod racer Aldar Beedo, Kam Nale, known professionally as Elan Mak followed his nemesis to Tatooine to participate in the Boota Eve Classic, hoping to engineer an "accident" to enact his revenge.

Darthdaddy....Mousedroidhoojib....those are some, ahem...um, nice looking Twi'leks. Yeah, wow.

And now, I know Jess has been done to death in the customizing department (according to every search engine out there), but I really wanted to have a go with her. I used Hasbro's Marion head and legs from the Indiana Jones line and a Leia dancer torso. I used Foam-mo to make new hair for her and I really like that stuff. I can't wait to make other things with it. And now my Jabba's denizen crowd has grown by one...

LOVE the Gamorrean! I need to make a set of those for myself.
Chewie, lol, you made T-Man orange, of course (can't stop giggling). That trio is pure perfection....

Great stuff. I wasn't able to secure the gam guard parts I needed for my custom, so I doubt I'll get this one entered.

System Overload System Overload formed in the Corellian Sector on Nar Shadda five years prior to the Battle of Yavin. The band defines themselves as Galactic Industrial. Like most performers of this genre, their music is full of brash vocals, wailing rifts, and thunderous percussion. They dress in simple tech jumpsuits to represent their working class nature.
The band has gained galaxy wide popularity with their songs "Cantina Clash" "Heading for a Meltdown" "Bad Motivator" and their power ballad "Rebuild My Heart"
The band consists of Surge, Pos, Neg, Reverb, and Tech

Yeah, the Rose bodies work for the band, darthapathy. System Overload. Love it.

I also love the background entertainers that were dropped from the movies. Those designs would make cool figures.

Hope to get my entries up some day... I keep getting http errors whenever I try to upload. I've tried different browsers, phone/PC and get the same error. Anybody else have issues?

The issue has been around for a number of years now - here's the thread about it, maybe you can bump it to get some progress? I've simply been using an outside source to upload photos, but since its a process, I tend not to post photos much anymore...

Fingers crossed we see a few more submissions for this round before the close. Some of the ones that I didn't get around to include a male Squid Lake danseur, Jar Jar as a street clown, a Grav-ball player and some of the other Preigo's Traveling World of Wonder players.

Accompanied by Max Rebo, Vanessa The Twi'lek entertains patrons including Phineas and Ferb in the Mos Eisley cantina after The Modal Nodes have left the stage.

A long time ago in an alternative galaxy far, far away, Sheev Palpatine from his early childhood was always told by his parents and guidance counselor, Professor Hugo Damask II, that he was destined for great things. He had a gift of persuasion, was a natural at debates and had the ability to get others to subvert to his will.
Indeed, the young man’s destiny was great, but not in the way others foresaw. Adopting the moniker P-Siddy, he performed at numerous venues and attracted quite the large following. Because of his fame, rivalries with fellow artists emerged from all corners of the galaxy to take on Siddy, who was also known as The Sidster or Siddy-Diddy Bop. These rivalries only fueled his aspirations to become the most popular musician of all times and he later earned the sobriquet The Emperor of All Music.
P-Siddy’s biggest hits include: “It’s All About the Republic Credits”, “Can’t Nobody Hold Me Down”, “Unnatural Pathways”, “A Welcome Surprise”, and the ever-cryptic ballad, “The Tragedy of Darth Plagueis the Wise”.

R2-N5 (aka Tunes, R2nes)
R2-N5, an astromech known to the masses as “Tunes” or “R2nes”, is a popular deejay known throughout the galaxy for his massive and complete music catalogue. The droid’s catalogue includes several rare recordings, including a few by Darth Punk, and is highly sought-after by wealthy aristocrats and unscrupulous parties. Known for his ochre, bronze and dazzling blue highlights, R2-N5 sets the tone for any house party at Club Peko Peko.
