Emily Johnston goes ahead and creates an incredibly sexy and erotic character out of a usually un-sexy occupation. I mean, have there ever been [sexy clowns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/classic-clog-pennywise)? Answer: no.

But now there is, and she is wearing the clown equivalent of a sexy nurse costume. But Emily Johnston can make it work, even with her clownish makeup and balloons. This is one clown I will not have performing at my child's birthday party--maybe at a bachelor party instead.
