1Opinion of the Court

SHIELDS, Presiding Judge.

Denise C. Webb appeals her conviction of prostitution, a class A misdemeanor.1

We affirm.

ISSUES

Webb presents several arguments on appeal which we restate as follows:

1. Whether Webb's conduct is regulated by Indiana's obscene performance statute, and thus cannot be prosecuted as prostitution;

2. Whether the statutory definition of "deviate sexual conduct" is unconstitutionally vague;

3. Whether the prostitution statute is unconstitutionally overbroad;

4. Whether the evidence is insufficient to sustain Webb's conviction; and

5. Whether Webb was entrapped.
