Awesome ~ and, as always, it's the girls in the audience who shout the loudest! Is there now anyone who says this should not be an Olympic sport??

Meet the 250-Pound Pole Dancer Who Is Comfortable In Her Own Skin Airdate : 2/9/2012


You've never seen a pole dancer like this.

Luayne Brown, whose stage name is Lulu, is 250-pounds. But that doesn't stop her from hoisting herself up the pole, swinging around, and even standing on her head.

It's a far cry from the image of pole dancers we're used to, like Elizabeth Berkeley in Showgirls and Demi Moore in Striptease.

But Brown is proud of her pole dancing. She even posts videos online, where many see her as an inspiration.

"Good job! It's great to see someone comfortable in their own skin," said one comment.

Another comment said: "You go girl. Be proud to be you!"

But some of the feedback can be cruel.

One comment said: "Not sexy!"

Another questioned: "Has she no dignity at all?"

Brown told INSIDE EDITION, "I don't care. I've never really cared what other people say, thought. You can think all you want as long as I'm happy, that is all that matters."

You won't find Barber at a strip club. Pole dancing is strictly a hobby for her.

The 26-year-old mom of two works at a car dealership by day. By night she works on her moves at a pole dancing studio in Baltimore.

She even takes part in competitions.

"There are days when I go, 'If I was a size 4 I would be the happiest girl in the world?' and then I think, ‘Oh Lu, get that out of your head. You should be happy with what you have now,'" said Brown.

Brown showed INSIDE EDITION her routine. She struggled to put on her killer heels and those back breaking moves took a lot of effort. After a few minutes, she was out of breath.

In competitions Brown is judged on artistry and athleticism. She hasn't won any yet but this plus sized pole dancer has no intention of stopping.

"People will make fun of you, people are going to hate you, if you don't like it, turn your head," Brown said.

The 250-Pound Pole Dancer Competes Airdate : 5/3/2012


INSIDE EDITION followed women who took part in a pole dancing competition and one of them really stood out.

Her name is Lulu and at 250-pounds, she's not your typical pole dancer. But Lulu is determined not to let her plus-size body stop her.

Lulu told INSIDE EDITION, "We are doing the Miss Virginia Pole Fitness Competition and I'm in it."

Lulu has been practicing for months at a studio near her home in Maryland and she was finally ready to take the plunge and compete against some of the nation's top pole dancers. She won't be getting any breaks from the judges.

One judge said, "We are judging very strictly for strength and technique and we're going to judge fairly when it comes to Lulu."

When the competition began, Lulu was up against stiff competition with slim women swinging around the pole with incredible flexibility and grace. There are compulsory moves that everyone must do.

Then it was Lulu's turn.
She climbed and spun, performing those back breaking moves and giving it everything she's got.

At end of her three-minute routine, Lulu was spent.

Lulu said, "I feel good, I'm glad I did it. If I don't place, I'm really happy just to be here."

As the judges tallied the scores, spectators were allowed to vote on their favorite and the winner was Ms. Lulu.

She may not have won the big prize, but she sure won over the audience.

"I do plan on coming back next year for next year's Miss Virginia and taking the title," said Lulu.
