A WORD TO THE WISE:
Do not click the link -- the girls look much better in the SMALL thumbnail version. I repeat do not click the link.
No, in all seriousness (and I'm assuming you would not take offense to what was said above -- they are only strippers -- and it's meant as a joke -- well, partly a joke ... but anyway), this is a method I usually find works.
Duplicate your layer, extract your subject, now go over it to make sure you got it extracted good with the history brush and the eraser as well, and then just blur the background. You may have to clone out the edges of them in your background layer or they will look like they're glowing (obviously these two ... ahh nevermind that but anyway...). Good luck.
Other than that, just find a nice background. Seriously, brick walls are nice, garage door even. Whatever floats your fancy (not going there). Just make sure that whatever you use for a background, you shoot from the same angle, the distance you want, and the same focal length (18mm for example or 70mm, etc).
good luck.
