The Film: Is there a difference between burlesque and plain old stripping? We consulted the professionals and they agreed (begrudgingly) that Showgirls did count. The scenes in the lapdancing club aren't burlesque, the scenes in Vegas are. So it’s here.
The fact that Ms Berkley keeps her top on for more than two minutes in this scene is an argument on the side of burlesque.
The Scene Set-Up: Berkley’s nervous novice Nomi flaps onto the stage wearing a very little, very shiny gold dress. She then dances like a bit of a weirdo, throwing her hands up in the air a lot and snarling at the camera.
The Sauce: Lots of nudity. Pretty much none of it sexy. Snore.

If you're allowed Showgirls then surely Salma Hayek with a snake in From Dusk til Dawn is allowed

The snake dance is classic.
