Crazy Horse Paris is honored to be the subject of Alaïa’s first Dialogue, a new series of artistic and cultural projects directed by its Creative Director Pieter Mulier.
In 1979 Azzedine Alaïa created stage costumes for the dancers of Crazy Horse Paris. Outfits that were made to be quickly put on and taken off, as the constraints of the show require. It is at Crazy Horse Paris that Azzedine also learned and understood the woman’s body. And how to amplify its beauty.
In the courtyard of the Alaïa premises in Paris, stands “The Breast” molded on a Crazy Horse Paris dancer by César, a close friend to Azzedine and Crazy Horse Paris.
It was the synchronicity of these things that made Crazy Horse Paris an evident choice for Pieter Mulier.
Sam Rock photographed, on its stage and in its backstage area, eleven of its dancers: Nini Pompei, Sake Spotlight, Echo Paradox, Frida Whirlwind, Sassy à la Mode, Prima Analytic, Aqua Marine, Zitta Zurbaghan, Pixelle Canon, Margaux Lachapelle, Yuzu Azenor.
Through Sam’s lens, the eleven dancers lined up, in their eleven dresses of eleven different colors, make up for an almost cinematographic moment. Somewhere between reality and fiction. A dream, maybe. The row of colors creates a rhythm, a musicality, a movement.
Because Alaïa, as Crazy Horse Paris, is, above all, a house in motion.

Finding the rare gem takes time and persistence. Paris, Nice and Berlin: our artistic team travels far and wide in the hopes of finding new diamonds in the rough, just waiting to shine on the Crazy Horse Paris stage.
Criteria, such as a strong technical background in dancing or height, are essential. But it’s mainly charisma, that undefinable "je ne sais quoi” and which makes all the difference during the performances, which the recruiters are looking for. Incidentally, did you know that the required height to dance on the Crazy Horse stage (between 1m68 and 1m73) is directly linked to the stage’s size? The latter being a mere 2m high!
Do you, too, want to be a part of the most chic of all Parisian dance troupes? The Crazy Horse Paris will be auditioning again in early September 2022 (by invitation only). Click here for more information.
The troupe is expanding with the arrival of 4 new dancers from the four corners of the world: Guadeloupe, Dominican Republic, the Netherlands and Australia. On the 18th and 19th of August, after several weeks of intensive training, they took their first steps on stage.
As tradition demands it, they were given their stage names on the eve of their first public appearance. An emotionally charged moment they shared with the other dancers and which marked the true welcoming of these recruits into the house. It’s with emotion that Nini Pompéi, Paz Picaflor, Frida Whirlwind and Ginger Knockout were given their stage names. And each name tells a story which we are going to reveal to you.
Inès, alias Nini Pompéi, was born in mainland France, but grew up at the foot of a volcano in Guadeloupe. Originally from that island, she spent her entire youth there. Passionate about archeology and Italian culture, her name suits her perfectly!
Ginger Knockout pays tribute to Valérie’s sublime red hair and her ability to knock us off our feet… in every sense of the word! Not only is she a knockout beauty, but she also intensely trains in Taekwondo.
Mary-Grace, of Australian origin, becomes Frida Whirlwind. Indeed, she is deeply inspired by the iconic Mexican artist, Frida Kahlo. Passionate about traveling and adventure, she’s just waiting to unfurl her whirlwind of happiness upon the Crazy Horse Paris.
Zucaïdi is now Paz Picaflor. Excellent Samba dancer, her new name refers to her Hispanic origins and the things she values most, such as peace, hummingbirds and flowers. A colorful and sparkling personality has made her debut at the Crazy Horse Paris!
Adopting the Crazy Horse Paris codes requires rigor, time and patience. Most dancers already possess a solid foundation in classical dancing, yet very specific training is given to every new recruit upon arrival.
Body language, adapting to what’s feasible, positioning when it comes to lighting...: it’s a whole new artistic world they will have to master. Group choreographies such as Baby Buns or You Turn Me On, are an integral part of the learning process. The arched back, signature pose of the house since its creation, is a subtle art and takes time to master.
The make-up, final touch underscoring the beauty of the dancer’s appearance, is by no means neglected. The stage director, Svetlana Konstantinova, shares her secrets with the new arrivals. Her goal: to accentuate an already strong personality with bright red lips and intense eyes. Lights: the Totally Crazy! show is about to start.

Talking of the gorgeous Crazy Girls, it is impossible to forget the one who embodied the cabaret in the 1970s and 80s. A sun-kissed mane of hair with a thick fringe, a mischievous and full mouth, and generous curves: Lova Moor is an enduring legend of Crazy Horse Paris.
A true ambassadress for the cabaret, Lova Moor became a media superstar, beloved of the celebrities who jostled to meet her at 12 avenue George V in Paris. Lova Moor was the muse of Alain Bernardin, founder of Crazy Horse Paris, and this now legendary couple united their destinies in 1985. A magnificent and glamourous love story.
At Crazy Horse Paris, there is a before and after Lova. Fiery and generous, she contributed to developing the very essence of the legend of the Crazy Girls who succeeded her. For the anniversary of the cabaret, we have chosen to place her once more in the limelight by creating a limited offer featuring her image.
The “Crazy Vintage” offer gives you the chance to attend the “Totally Crazy”, with a ½ bottle of “Cuvée Crazy” champagne and two essential collector’s pieces for everyone who loves Crazy Horse Paris, for just €147. After the show you leave with a superb, 100% cotton tote bag featuring Lova Moor over your shoulder, and a mug specially created for the occasion so that you can enjoy your tea or coffee breaks under her gaze.
With its ever so modern and bold approach, the Crazy Horse is proud to flaunt its sixty-seven years of age, without a wrinkle in sight! The secret to its everlasting youth? Its ability to create, beautify, thrill… and share with its audience. Happy birthday beloved Crazy Horse.
Crazy Horse Paris first opened the doors of its saloon to Parisians and tourists from all over the world on May 19th, 1951. Since its beginnings, the cabaret has shown its signature and strong identity, showcasing the heritage of its founder, Alain Bernardin. Boldness and glamour, which are at the core of the Crazy’s identity, have always been blended with modernity: brazen avant-garde, from the 50’s until now.
Every night, free and proud feminine identity is showcased in a wide array of iconic shows with gorgeous scenes, interpreted by Crazy Girls embodying the spirit of the cabaret. Every creation, every collaboration, is in tune with its time, allowing us to create constant breathtaking snapshots of pure beauty, hypnotizing movements, and dizzying curves.
Very quickly, Crazy Horse Paris became the major meeting point of Paris’ in-crowd. After honing its artistic signature very early on, the cabaret dared to dress the Crazy Girls with lights, and offered, as the years went on, iconic scenes like the magnetic “Scanner”, the glimmering “Baby Buns”, or the seductive “Undress To Kill”.
Well rooted in its time, and beloved by the stars, Crazy Horse Paris develops artistic collaborations as early as 2006, with the fabulous Dita Von Teese as its first Guest Star. In her number, the glamorous icon and burlesque star pays tribute to Miss Candida’s, Le Bain, which made a splash in 1951. The following years, Crazy Horse Paris continued to welcome feminine icons: Clotilde Courau, Arielle Dombasle, Pamela Anderson, Noémie Lenoir, as well as a woman from another gender, Conchita Wurst.
In addition to receiving Guest Stars, Crazy Horse Paris has been committed to creating and maintaining exceptional collaborations with a broad range of artists. In 2009, choreographer Philippe Decouflé stages Désirs, then in 2012, Christian Louboutin creates 4 unique scenes for the Feu show, while in 2016, Chantal Thomass (un)dresses the Dessous Dessus show.
So it’s with unaltered energy and vitality, and a tad of “So Crazy” insolence that the cabaret is preparing for its 67th birthday.
Will you come along?
Sun, sand, lazing around: the perfect recipe for a relaxing and restorative holiday.
In these days of early summer, the alluring Mika Do and the fiery Tina Tobago reveal their beauty routines and offer some tips for looking great with the wind in your hair!
How do you prepare your skin and your body for summer?
Tina: I use face masks regularly and I exfoliate. And of course I go to the gym where I follow a specially designed programme: at the moment it’s abs and glutes and core stability.
Mika: Moisturising your skin is essential: I like natural products and I also exfoliate!
What are your priorities in terms of diet?
Tina: I focus on fruit, especially smoothies, the best ones are freshly made. And I love vegetables, raw, cooked or grilled; I don’t eat much meat, especially in summer.
Mika: Fruit, raw vegetables: I like everything fresh. I make my own lovely salads the way I like them and I can vary them when I want… I also make sure I eat a banana every day, they’re ideal if you’re doing sports as they help prevent cramp and stiffness.
What are the best summer sports for a toned body?
Tina: I alternate swimming, jogging and CrossFit so I can work every part of my body and have fun!
Mika: I walk every day because it’s good for my heart and my body, plus I do a few minutes daily of core stabilisation exercises to stay toned and abs and glutes for my body shape. My routine stays the same, even in winter!
How do you look after your hair in the sun at the beach?
Tina: My hair is usually tied up at the beach. I protect it with almond or coconut oil and I regularly use a moisturising mask.
Mika: I swear by a castor oil mask for my hair. I leave it on for several hours, once a week.
How do you manage your tan, in the sun and after your holidays?
Tina: I’m lucky that I have an all-year tan, but I do use a lot of sun protection: my skin is quite delicate and I tan in 10 minutes. So I use a very high factor sun cream, wear a hat and stay out of strong sunlight.
Mika: I have very fair skin so I protect myself very carefully. To maintain my tan, I take a well-known brand of supplements.
What’s the best make-up for summer?
Tina: Something light – just a DD cream to enhance the complexion. And don’t forget your eyeliner – essential to emphasise your eyes!
Mika: I use a good quality terracotta for a flawless and radiant complexion. And a little mascara, to make my eyes more feline. Nothing else.
What’s your beauty routine? Tell us your secret!
Tina: I use bicarbonate of soda as an exfoliant or mixed with lemon and water to get rid of stubborn blackheads.
Mika: I take a very, very, very cold shower for 3 or 4 minutes every morning. The benefits? Smooth, toned skin and a will of iron!
What do you do to prolong the benefits of summer once autumn arrives?
Tina: My skin colour has tropical tones… When summer’s over, I change my moisturiser to suit the season and of course, I exfoliate regularly.
Mika: When autumn arrives, my secret is to maintain my rhythm, continue the routines I use in the summer, and eat a balanced diet all year (without forgetting the occasional treat!). I think the most important thing is to listen to your body and your needs, within reason. That’s the key: a healthy, calm mind in a body that’s healthy and….. calm ;-).
So now all you need to do is follow this wise advice and you’ll have a summer full of glamour and beauty.
And if you’d like to see our Crazy Girls, “Totally Crazy” runs all through summer: why not book now?
