Paris - Le Crazy Horse
If you find yourself in Paris this New Year's Eve...
My tombstone will read: Here she lies, her greatest accomplishment: she went to Crazy Horse three times in one year.
Located right in the Golden Triangle of Paris, Crazy Horse is a luxurious burlesque show. It is a performance of dance, light, and music by the most beautiful women. The show has an incredible legacy (founded in 1951), numerous guest stars (Dita, Pamela), and one famed shoemaker (Louboutin) to dress the performers. In what has to be a fantastic artistic endorsement - Beyonce found inspiration in one of the dances and recreated it for her music video Partition.
What We Ate: Champagne
Recommend For: A friend asked me what to do in Paris for NYE and this show was my number one recommendation. I have been with close friends and with work colleagues, but a performance would also make for a fantastic date. My only recommendation is to vet your group before going. A 10 PM show spits you out at Midnight in Paris; and with Girafe, the Plaza and Matignon close by, you cannot go wrong. I am infinitely jealous of anyone who has not yet been and gets to experience Le Crazy Horse for the first time.
Address: 12 Av. George V, 75008 Paris, France
Reservations: Tickets are a must because if a celebrity is in attendance you will not be able to get through the crowds. Arrive 15 minutes before the show starts, it is worth every second.
