  • Story Text: British model and actress Kelly Brook is set to appear in London's new cabaret show 'Forever Crazy' for one week only starting on November 1st 2012.
    Brook posed for pictures at the show's purpose built luxury venue on the South Bank in the British capital with the rest of the cast on Tuesday (October 16), as her upcoming cameo was revealed.
    Created by 'Crazy Horse', the famed long running avant-garde cabaret in Paris, 'Forever Crazy' has been performing in London since last month.
    "It was about four years ago I went to see the show in Paris and just fell in love with it. I thought it was the best show I'd ever seen and I think since then it's always been a dream of mine, but never really thought it would come to fruition" Brook told Reuters Television.
    It turned out to be quite simple for her to get hired though, she came to see the show in London a few weeks ago and then asked to be in it as entertainment producer and promoter Harvey Goldsmith explained: "At the end of the show she turned round to me and said, 'I wanna do this show.'"
    The legendary entertainment entrepreneur brought the Crazy Horse' from Paris to London in September. Featuring a cast of ten classically trained dancers, 'Forever Crazy' is best-of from the last few years: "Well what they (Crazy Horse) did is they went back through the last five years and just chose the best scenes from that and put a compilation show together to show the best of the best, really. And it's fun, there's a lot of fun inside the show." Goldsmith said.
    Crazy Horse was started in France in 1951 by Alain Bernadin and has since been billed as the worlds favourite cabaret. The show has been seducing Parisian audiences for over sixty years before arriving in London.
    Known for it's saucy scenes, Brook is not worried about reaction to her performance: "The show's incredible so I don't think I need to be nervous, I'm surrounded by beautiful, amazing women, great choreographer, great producers, I mean the show's fantastic so really I'm just honoured to step in and just be a small part of it so no, I'm just really excited."
    Kelly joins a star-studded line up of some of the world's sexist females including: Dita Von Teese, Carmen Electra, Pamela Anderson, Arielle Dombasle and Clotilde Courau who have all featured alongside the Crazy Girls in shows around the world.
