If you can't do the time ... continued.

Natalia McLennan, 1996 Canadian tap dancing champion, continues to give lessons on what not to do if you can't do the time....

Don't go on television and the cover of New York Magazine bragging about how you are #1 at doing the crime -- in this case, being New York's #1 hooker, making $2,000 an hour.

But if you don't do that, then at least don't show up before the judge for your bail hearing wearing a see-through blouse, miniskirt and stiletto heals like you are expecting to see a client immediately afterward...
