Bono's Belly Dancing Friend
Last night, I was belly dancing with our local tribute band, Elevation. It was crammed, and people were lined up down the street! When it's very crowded and there's very little dancing room, I try to make up for the lack of spins and other dance moves by just slinking around more.
After the dance finished, and I was changing in the bathroom, I overheard a conversation some women were having about MW.
Woman 1: That was exactly like the Mysterious Ways U2 did in concert!
Woman 2: No, she isn't a real belly dancer she-
And because my ears were kind of buzzing still I didn't quite hear what she was saying, so I introduced myself and said that I did a mixutre of actual belly dancing and my own balletic choreography. Woman #1 said she thought I did a great job and made me feel wonderful.
Later, Woman #1 came up to me and said that after I left, Woman #2 apologized to her and said she thought I was a stripper that someone had hired for someone's birthday surprise!!!
Thing is, although theoretically I should be insulted for being mistaken for a stripper, I'm actually very pleased. Men are usually impressed by any woman in a skimpy outfit, but a woman might say, "who was that cow thundering around on stage?" If a woman thinks I have a stripper calibre body...well that's a compliment, isn't it? Maybe not! Maybe I should investigate the stag show circuit and make a killing.....
