As tradition wants at Crazy Horse Paris, the new dancers received their Crazy stage names on the evening of their first public appearance.
Welcome: Sunny Rockstar and Gypsy Jane ! With such stage names, no doubt, their future will be bright!

How can you describe your experience at Crazy Horse Paris?
My 5 years here were “out-of-this-world”! You can’t even put into words this experience or what it is like to express yourself within the Crazy Horse Paris’ environment and stage! It’s a completely different world here: it’s so unique, touching, empowering and powerful! My career shapes the women I am today… and for the rest of my life! As we say, “Once a Crazy Girl, always a Crazy Girl”, and I fully believe that!
What is your best memory here?
There are so many! We had some great times with the Crazy Girls backstage: every night there are funny things happening and I met incredible friends. But probably, one of the best memories is having the opportunity to dance the act “… But I Am a Good Girl”, I will never forget the moment I found out I was on the rehearsal schedule to learn it. It’s my favorite solo and that’s why I wanted to join the cabaret!
What is the main lesson you learnt here as a dancer?
To have fun! When I first arrived, I was very nervous, it is such an iconic company! But I think, you can work hard, strive for the best and still enjoy every moment and put fun in the priority. It is why we dance; it is because we love it!
What are you going to miss the most?
I will miss the fun that we have backstage for sure! But also, working daily with some incredible and inspiring people. But most of all, I will miss dancing my favorite one “… But I Am a Good Girl”!
What are you plans?
To keep being Crazy! I have dreams and goals I want to reach, and how I reach them it is part of the journey. I love the adventure: I would like to continue travelling the world. And I want to spend more time with my family and friends as it’s been a long time away.
To finish, I want to thank everyone, who have been a big part of this amazing journey!

“This series, captured using film cameras, is about raw dance — since it was a rehearsal, there were no costumes, just pure dance and the effort to make it perfect. The task was particularly challenging due to the lighting conditions, alternating between light to dark, making it difficult to capture the perfect shot. However, these lighting conditions also made the experience incredibly interesting and rewarding. The dynamic environment pushed me to adapt quickly and find creative solutions. This experience was one of the best of my career.”

Watch an exclusive video of the rehearsals :
Violet Chachki, a true icon of the international drag scene, set Crazy Horse Paris ablaze with her 10 exclusive performances from June 24 to 28, drawing fans from around the world.
Acclaimed by both the public and the press – Le Parisien describes Violet Chachki's performances as "an incredible moment... that electrified the audience" – Violet performed alongside Crazy Horse Paris dancers as well as alone in solos. Among her acts: a burlesque striptease, an adaptation of the famous "Attitude" tableau alongside artist Johny Boy, as well as "Scanner," "Lay Laser Lay," and "You Turn Me On."
These challenging acts were brilliantly executed and greeted with standing ovations from the audience.
The custom-tailored costumes were made by Ludovic de Saint Sernin, Coperni, Disco Daddy, and Christian Louboutin, the jewelry created by Alan Crocetti, and enhanced by lighting effects especially designed for the exclusive shows.
This unique event adds a new chapter to the history of artistic collaborations at Crazy Horse Paris, following in the footsteps of legends such as Dita Von Teese, Pamela Anderson, Viktoria Modesta, and Lisa of BlackPink.
Crazy Horse Paris, Ă cabaret in perpetual movement, continues to innovate and surprise.

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 AlaĂŻa premises in Paris, stands “The Breast” molded on a Crazy Horse Paris dancer by CĂ©sar, a close friend to Azzedine and Crazy Horse Paris.Â
It was the synchronicity of these things that made Crazy Horse Paris an evident choice for Pieter Mulier.Â
Sam Rock photographed, on its stage and in its backstage area, eleven of its dancers: Nini Pompei, Sake Spotlight, Echo Paradox, Frida Whirlwind, Sassy Ă la Mode, Prima Analytic, Aqua Marine, Zitta Zurbaghan, Pixelle Canon, Margaux Lachapelle, Yuzu Azenor.Â
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.Â
Because AlaĂŻa, as Crazy Horse Paris, is, above all, a house in motion.
