Danielle Colby’s New Career Update
American Pickers star Danielle Colby, 47, has shared a major update on her career outside the show as ratings continue to slip and co-host Mike Wolfe considers retirement.

While known for her work on the History Channel, Danielle is also heavily involved in the burlesque world — and she’s now promoting an upcoming performance at the Riviera Theater in Upstate New York.

Burlesque at the Riviera
On Wednesday night, Danielle took to her Instagram Stories to share a flyer from the venue’s official page.

The advertisement read:

“Burlesque at the Riviera starring Danielle Colby from American Pickers and Friends”
Plus special guests: Eye Candy Vixens

The flyer featured Danielle in her signature burlesque attire, alongside fellow performers dressed in equally glamorous costumes.

Danielle didn’t add a caption — the bold flyer spoke for itself.

Mike Wolfe’s Possible Retirement
Just hours earlier, a close friend of Mike Wolfe exclusively told The U.S. Sun:

“I don’t know how long the show will last… Mike and Robbie would like to retire at some point. It’s been 12 years. It’s a strain on your life. They’ve done this a long time.”

The source continued:

“Some days, you’re all excited about your job. Other days, you just want time to do other things.”

Declining Ratings for American Pickers
This news comes as American Pickers continues to experience declining ratings.

July 5 premiere: 918,000 viewers

July 12: 803,000 viewers

July 19: 713,000 viewers

July 26: 885,000 viewers

August 9: 778,000 viewers

August 16: 706,000 viewers

August 23: just 620,000 — lowest of the season

Ratings were much higher when fan-favorite Frank Fritz co-hosted alongside Mike Wolfe.

Danielle Continues to Shine on Stage
Despite the show’s uncertain future, Danielle is fully embracing her burlesque career.

Earlier this week, she shared another Instagram post — this time a video promotion for the Riviera Theater performance near Niagara Falls.

The clip began with a shot of the nearly 100-year-old venue, then featured glamorous photos of Danielle in extravagant costumes.

Featured Looks:

Glimpses of other performers in feathers, jewels, and glittering outfits

The narrator in the clip announced:

“The Riviera Theater invites you to an evening of classic burlesque starring Danielle Colby from American Pickers. Saturday, September 9th at 8 p.m. at the historic Riviera Theater in North Tonawanda. Get your tickets today!”

Danielle captioned the video:

“Hey Buffalo, I’m on my way real soon! Make sure to get your tickets now before it sells out!”

Conclusion
As American Pickers faces uncertainty, Danielle Colby is confidently moving forward, expanding her brand and doing what she loves most — burlesque performance and artistic expression.

Meanwhile, Mike Wolfe appears to be preparing for a life beyond the show, possibly marking the end of an era.
