The Crazy Horse Cabaret is a Parisian establishment created by Alain Bernardin in 1951, renowned for its legacy of female dancers showcasing nude performances. Over time, it earned a high reputation and respect in the dance community, and several dancers find it a great honor to perform and be recognized by the establishment.

From Beyoncé to Pamela Anderson, dancers from various aspects of the entertainment industry have debuted at the Crazy Horse Cabaret.
