From behind the scenes, two protagonists of this exceptional project tell us more about their experience:
Ginger Knockout, dancer : "Working on Emily in Paris was such a great experience! It was so much fun and such an honor to welcome the Emily in Paris crew into our Crazy Horse Paris home. The team was fantastic, and we got to work with Ashley Park! She was amazing: she came in and did the choreography with us like a true professional dancer. And of course, it’s a bit special seeing your own name pass by in the credits on Netflix!"
Psykko Tico, Deputy creative director : "To create the choreography, my ambition was to work on the interaction between the characters on stage, to make their actions easily recognizable, because I know that part of the the scenes can be easily cut in post-production. But, above all, I wanted to recreate the unique and recognizable atmosphere of Crazy Horse Paris, by relying on the gestures, the visuals, the attitude and the acting."
To perfect this number, Kyle Hanagami, choreographer of Blackpink and Jennifer Lopez, went to Crazy Horse Paris to work on this sequence with Ashley Park.

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.

Today, the mythical Parisian cabaret is once again creating a surprise by inviting Violet Chachki, the most glamorous of alldrag queens, to perform on its iconic stage for 10 exclusive shows from June 24 to 28, 2024.
After the queen of burlesque Dita Von Teese, the bionic showgirl Viktoria Modesta, the K-Pop icon Lisa of Blackpink, it is the turn of Violet Chachki, a legendary figure of the drag community, to slip amongst the famous Crazy Girls, for a series of exceptional shows.
Violet Chachki is a versatile artist and performer from the southern United States. Famous for winning the seventh season of RuPaul's Drag Race, she was propelled to the rank of superstar of the international drag scene.

"Performing on the Crazy Horse Paris stage is a dream come true. By stepping into the shoes of a Crazy Girl, I want to celebrate the essence of the divine feminine and pay homage in my own way to this place and to these incredible dancers, who have deeply inspired me since I first I attended a Crazy show nine years ago" explains Violet Chachki.
With this new project, the innovative creative direction of Crazy Horse Paris, which since 2006 has restored the Parisian cabaret to its former glory, defies conventions and blurs the boundaries between genres, demonstrating that performance, elegance, and art have no limits. By welcoming Violet Chachki to its prestigious stage, the cabaret celebrates unity in diversity.
"Ever since I first met Violet Chachki in 2015, I knew I was going to invite her to be a Guest Star. I am proud that today this project is finally coming to fruition. The performances of Violet Chachki, a symbol of another type of femininity, will amplify the free expression of sensuality and femininity, which we stage every day at Crazy Horse Paris," adds Andrée Deissenberg, Chief Creative and Brand Officer.
