When I was a professional dancer at the Moulin Rouge in Paris we did a fair bit of television work, often with celebrities. We did a live TV spectacular, shown on French TV with Sacha Distel. For the photo shoot afterwards he pinched me on the arse. Cheeky old git. There is a famous racing driver [was] called Paul Belmondo. He is the son of the actor Jean Paul Belmondo. He appeared on the Moulin Rouge stage with us all and his racing car. We were photographed in Paris Match magazine. Sadly I never got a copy of the magazine my photo was in. But the exact same photo appeared in a published book about the Moulin Rouge and so, my photo is in it.!!There were many celebs in the audience on various nights. Liza Minnelli was in the audience one night and came backstage after the show to meet us all. Annoyingly about a month before arriving in Paris the ballet dancer Mikhail Baryshnikov appeared ,and again went backstage to meet everyone. This was around the same time that he appeared in the film White Nights. Me and my friend saw that film 7 times !! But most impressive of all for me was when I was later on working in Japan. We all had been given the night off .The show we were dancing in had been cancelled as a block booking to the hotel where we lived and worked had cancelled at the last minute.[A lot of big hotels in Japan have their own built in theatre and put on shows nightly for guests.] Anyway, we were told that afternoon there was to be no show that night and we had just been paid our monthly salaries the day before. So we all headed off to Tokyo. After a day at Disneyland we went to the Hard Rock Cafe. And there was George Best. As someone brought up in the Old Trafford area of Manchester and being told by my dad from the youngest age possible about him,I idolised him. Long story short, Kevin Keegan ,Pat Crerand and Ruud Kroll were also there for Kick Aids. We all chatted with them all night, trying to teach them the Five Positions of The Feet [5 basic classical ballet steps]. It was hysterical, but they were all a good laugh. George had been knocking back white wines all night. His hands were all over me. I just wanted to talk about football ! Anyway George asked me if I wanted to go back to his hotel room and spend the weekend with him, "And i'll take you shopping and buy you anything you want". I declined his invitation. George looked rather put out and offended that I had rejected him. So Kevin Keegan was all over him trying to massage his ego saying, "She's a football fan George, they see you differently to other women". Anyway it got to around 4.30 in the morning and they were all heading off. George then said to me "Will you at least give an old man a goodnight kiss?" So I agreed. I snogged George Best. Floozy. Actually the experience was most unpleasant as he tasted of wine and I hate all alcohol. Plus his moustache was tickling my nose. I met him back in 1989, I think it was. I absolutely ****ing cried my eyes out when he died.
