Even A Strip Club Manager Thinks Miley’s Pole Dance Was Uncomfortable

Jessica WakemanAugust 12, 2009 //

Okay, publicist for SCORES a “gentleman’s club” in New York City. You won. I took your opportunistic press release bait. I called up Ed Norwick, the general manager of SCORES, to ask him what he, as a sort of stripping aficionado, thought of Miley Cyrus’ pole dance number at the Teen Choice Awards. Our chat, after the jump: Keep reading »

RIP, Poledancing. Cause Of Death? Miley Cyrus At The Teen Choice Awards

Jessica WakemanAugust 11, 2009 //

Ladies and gentlemen, we gather here today to remember our dear friend pole dancing.

Beloved by frat boys, horny old men, and starlets in desperate need of attention, pole dancing may have enjoyed decades more of life had not Miley Cyrus pole-danced at the Teen Choice Awards last night. Keep reading »

    Fitness For The Coquette In You

    Annika HarrisMarch 5, 2009 //

    Pole dance, chair dance, and striptease are fun ways to workout, but let’s be real, you aren’t going to use these moves to entice your guy no matter what Flirty Girl Fitness promises. I can just see my BF bursting into hysterics as I try to do the Cat Crawl Push-up or Goddess Rising ab routine while wearing lingerie. Instead, these fitness DVDs would go well with your girlfriends and some cocktails for a night of laughs and sex talk. And when it’s time to get your guy excited just be yourself and save the aerobics, spinning and twirling for a professional.

    1. “Intermediate Pole” DVD in the Flirty Girl Fitness Pole Kit
    2. “Just Teasing” DVD in the Flirty Girl Fitness Pole Kit
    3. “Booty Beat” DVD in the Flirty Girl Preview Program

    Pole Dancing Robots Shake Things Up

    SimchaDecember 18, 2008 //

    Sci-fi guy fantasy has hit a whole new woody-popping high with robotic pole dancers. Created by Giles Walker, these dancing machines have been humping all over the United Kingdom, Spain and even at an Australian music festival. The bump and grind girls move to the beat and have been getting lots of attention while on display at a new London art gallery, muTATE, which just opened in November. While we here on The Frisky have all been debating whether or not guys going to strip clubs is considered cheating, that was sooooo 2008. In these futuristic times, now we also get to wonder if a robo exotic dancer counts. [BBC] Keep reading »

    Frisky Workouts: My New Found Respect For Strippers

    Annika HarrisNovember 24, 2008 //

    I used to think strippers had it easy. They show up for work in the evening, shake their asses for a few hours, make their rent and grocery money in one shift, leave the club for the night, sleep through the morning, go shopping before work and then start the whole cycle all over again. I thought that as long as you had some rhythm while wearing five-inch heels, were reasonably flexible and had few inhibitions, you had it made as a stripper. You’d be rolling around in dough on Egyptian cotton sheets in no time. I was really wrong and it only took me 10 minutes to figure out that strippers WORK for all their money. More after the jump.

    I Was A Celibate Stripper

    YourTango.comNovember 24, 2008 //

    “So let me get this straight? You’ve been a stripper for the past eight years and you’ve never slept with anyone during that entire time?” Blair, my co-worker at the strip club, asked.

    “I know, it sounds really weird,” I said. “I just haven’t. Maybe its guilt from my Italian Catholic upbringing.”

    “Kiersten, how is that possible? Come on, that can’t be true,” Blair replied. Keep reading »

    Pole Dancing To Become An Olympic Sport?

    Susannah BreslinNovember 21, 2008 //

    Apparently, a bunch of Mormon women in Utah — yes, Mormon women in Utah — are seeking to turn the fine art of pole dancing into a competitive sport at the 2012 Olympics. Typically when one thinks of pole dancing, one thinks of strip clubs, cigarette smoke, alcohol, mirrored walls, Lucite heels, Poison’s “She’s My Cherry Pie,” and thongs stuffed with dollar bills. With these ladies? Not so much. Instead of “pole dancing,” they call their brass pole gymnastics “pole fitness.” “I don’t take my clothes off — at all!” one woman protests. Their high heels, they explain, are for muscle building. “We are some of the safest, most-skilled athletes,” another Olympics contender reveals. Some practitioners are housewives, not Olympic hopefuls, but no matter who you are it sounds like working the pole sheds pounds. Want to sign the petition? It’s here. [Buzzfeed] Keep reading »

    Coming Soon: Wii Strip!

    Amelia McDonell-ParryApril 22, 2008 //

    When we heard the Wii was coming with its own aerobics/fitness program, we were kind of excited because it combined something we love (the TV!) with something we hate (fitness!). We haven’t started our Wii Fit routine yet, but there’s already something potentially more enticing on the way. A company called Peekaboo, which makes stripper poles, is in talks with Nintendo to bring “strip-aerobics” to the Wii. A “game” the men in our lives won’t mind us playing, no doubt.
