Tira, the star performer in a seedy circus allows herself plenty of time to fraternize with plenty of men. When her partner runs foul of the law, Tira secures extra money by becoming a lion tamer. In the process, she is discovered by playboy Kent Taylor, but despite willingly accepting his gifts and other favours, only has eyes for her admirer's cousin. Romantic comedy, starring Mae West and Cary Grant.

Bold performer Tira works as dancing beauty and lion tamer at a fair. Out of an urgent financial need, she agrees to a risky new number: she'll put her head into the lion's mouth! With this attraction, the circus makes it to New York and Tira can pursue her dearest occupation — flirting with rich men and accepting expensive presents.
