US Edition'British Pole Dancers' Arrested After Dancing in Front of Historic Greek Palace
- On May 25, five British women were detained after holding a semi-nude pole dancing photoshoot outside a historic 19th-century palace in Corfu, Greece, known for its cultural and architectural significance.
- The photoshoot sparked outrage because the site is a UNESCO-listed former royal residence where locals said the dancers violated archaeological laws and degraded the area.
- The women had visited Corfu for a two-week pole dancing seminar and were unaware of restrictions, trusting a local photographer who assured them no permit was needed for photos.
- Video circulating online depicted a pair of women dressed in vivid red lingerie performing pole tricks, an act that locals denounced as offensive and expressed worries about possible harm to the historic location.
- Officials filed a lawsuit, and while no damage to the palace is evident, the event highlights tensions over respecting protected cultural sites and the need for clear permission processes.
