Default What is the funniest thing you have seen in relation to MED?

What is the funniest thing you have seen, heard or been taught in MED?

This is an attempt to be a little more light hearted and fun....

The funniest, or rather the strangest, thing I have seen was in Egypt. Lucy, a beautiful belly dancer, with an impressive long mane, after finishing her show, and while still on stage, took off her wig, and started waving it about triumphantly!

This, of course, exposed her real set of hair, which wasn’t very nice at all, especially since it had been covered in gel and pressed to fit under that wig for so long.

A soft gasp was heard through the hall. I still don’t know why she did it.

Well mine was a belly dancer in a local nightclub who managed to break into a sweat (Although dont know how as she wasnt doing much)... she went over to a table and danced. whilst she was there she picked up a serviette (napkin) and dried her chest and armpits.... she then threw the sweaty napkin back onto the table with mezze still on it. Bluurgh!

I have since this done twice now!!

I've seen performances where I have had to try very hard (and failed) to make the connection to ME dance

Ah yes on video..a dancer with a gun pointed up her nether regions is about the most alarming and made me very grateful I wasn't there.

But I was... thanks for reminding me

I saw a dancer on a Luxor cruise boat (years ago) wear a terrible black and yellow costume that made her look like a bumble bee.... when you looked down, she was wearing black tights and guess what???
A brand new pair of chunky white NIKE trainers!!!

It was hideous and hilarious at the same time.

A belly dance video featuring denim bedlahs, holsters, cowboy hats, and a country western song about praise the lord and pass the ammunition made me laugh out loud. I love this kind of satire when it is done for the entertainment of a knowledgable audience who gets all the jokes.

I've seen the cowgirls doing Pass the Ammunition live! (as opposed to pass the live ammunition - eek!) It was fun and well done and we all know (I hope) that it's just for fun.

I vote for Horacio Cifuentes shimmy trousers with the fringe all over. LMAO.
