Any one see her on Britain's Got Talent - I thought she was really good - what did everyone else think?

Re: Julia Naidenko
Wed, May 27, 2009 - 9:24 AMI think she looks like a talented dancer - its just a shame they've gone down the route of showgirl exotic dancer rather than educating the british public about middle eastern dance. I wish she'd dance to some great arabic music!!
Just a shame really as it perpetuates the idea that the general public have about bellydancers being purely for male enjoyment.
Disclaimer!!! I am NOT dissing the dancer, she's fine, and i know that she will have been told to up the sexy stuff as that is what makes people turn on the telly.

Wed, May 27, 2009 - 1:18 PMI'd love to have hair like hers. Impossible to assess how good she is with the way they cut the performance though! -

Thu, May 28, 2009 - 5:01 AMYeah that was a little disappointing re the music - I bet she's much better if she doesn't have to 'ham it up for the cameras'! I'd love to see Simon and Piers react to a tribal group or solo dancer!

Thu, May 28, 2009 - 7:33 AMI think it's hard to judge from her performance how good a bellydancer she is. She's a good dancer for sure, but I don't feel she managed to demonstrate much in the way of authentic bellydance. She certainly knew what would get her the votes though!
Much, much better than this lady though:

A prime example of how not to dance or dress!

Re: Julia Naidenko
Thu, May 28, 2009 - 9:17 AMJulia wasn't the one in the pants but i know - that was terrible! I didn't even get to see the dance just saw a shot of her on one of the credits and i thought - i don't care how good u are that is so not the way to promote belly dancing! Out of interest was she any good or did the outfit say it all? -

Sun, May 31, 2009 - 12:31 PMThat second link - Frankie - oh dear, oh dear, oh dear! Did she forget her skirt or something? It's a bit like a recurring nightmare I have when I suddenly realise I'm not dressed. I actually had to watch it through my fingers! She seems like a nice lady, so WHY?? Simon Cowell said it all there.
