The Folies Bergeres in Paris, France, is staging “California Dream Men”, its first show in 130 years featuring male strippers. After French National Front leader Jean-Marie Le Pen was spotted watching the show from a box above the mostly female audience, reporters from the French newspaper Liberation confronted him.
