Remember a month ago when we told you that, for the first time in history, the MGM Grand’s Crazy Horse Paris troupe was holding open auditions for its Parisian dance troupe? Well, if you were thinking of trying out, the stakes have just been raised: the modern queen of burlesque, Dita Von Teese, will serve as a guest judge on the selection panel.

“The Crazy Horse in Paris has been the home to the world’s most sensual and elite showgirls since 1951,” said Von Teese, who became the first guest star in Crazy Horse history at the MGM last year. “I am so honored to be a part of choosing new talent for the show, and I am thrilled at the idea of an American girl having this chance to become one of the Crazy Horse stars, with her place in showgirl history.”

As previously noted, auditions will be held March 3 through 6 with winners announced during a special party at Tabú Ultra Lounge on March 6, hosted of course by Von Teese. The open casting call will be Monday, March 3 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. at Dick Foster Productions (6260 Stevenson Way). Interested dancers can click here to e-mail for more information.
