I may have to modify and use this quote....

Since I was watching Princess Farhana

From an Underbelly promo clip...
"Every woman has an inner bellydancer waiting to come out....."

want to see the clip?

quite a bit of it was filmed at a workshop I attended last summer in Chatham Ontario.

I saw Margaret Cho in there, who I saw dance at a special Suhaila show in San Francisco a couple years ago.

I'm not sure I like the idea of belly dance being mixed up with burlesque.

agreed.

I like both as art forms, but... not sure that I want the two associated.

From what clips I've seen of PF's burlesque routines - she doesn't usually perform as a bellydancer - but as a burlesque artist with bellydance background.
