“I just want to make people happy,” she said, wearing a bikini covered in white feathers and with angel wings. “But I like the Olympic idea. I think it is good that now we pole dancers aren’t just seen as strippers.”

Wow!!! how can i become a judge at this pole dancing thing? is there going to be a lap dance portion ?

Anyone interested in broadening his/her horizon, go to Youtube and search for "Pole Dancing Like You've Never Seen It". It's a couple pole dancing. Sorry it's not sleazy.

What a load of BS. Pole dancing is a stipper's dance and to compare it with real Olympic athletics is absurd. Maybe the next trend will be to promote topless car washers or strip-o-gram services. The Olympic's is a series of games to honor the best of the best atheletes and not some freak show of odd perverted talent.

Hawkeye,

I guarantee that would guarantee a huge viewership of the Olympics. Probably move to pay per view.

I prefer sumo in olympics instead of this pervert entertainment.

Pole dancing should become a compulsory part of the Japanese curriculum for girls.

@pamalot

My 70 year old aunt sent me the link to the Youtube clip. I didn't look at it for a couple of days because I didn't think much of it, but after I watched it, I was pretty amazed what that couple could do and had a total new view regarding pole dancing.

"Pole dancing is a stipper's dance and to compare it with real Olympic athletics is absurd" - unfortunately this is no longer the case - from an exciting event, this has become dull and lifeless, not sexy at all. It is gymnastics now, and therefore lost it's punch.
