I love bellydancers and the Asian/Middle-Eastern styles. There are a few shops on Hollywood Blvd. that sell saris and those gorgeous bellydancing costumes with the tinkly coin-type chains, headresses, etc. I've never taken bellydancing, but I've got some appropriate music and I think I'd like to dance in one of these costumes, but I'm not sure I can get away with it. I'm very pale, freckled and blonde; I have a bellydancer figure (big hips, slightly round tummy, sharp hourglass) but I'm not sure if I'd look dumb, like I was trying to be someone else's ethnicity. But then again they put Heather Graham in a sari and mehndi for that movie and she looked great... what do y'all think? If I get hired somewhere, can I rock this look? The costumes are pretty cheap...
