Well here’s one way to boost ratings… an online position is gaining attention for pole dancing to receive Olympic recognition and vying for official Olympic consideration in the 2020 Games.
KT Coates, who organized the petition last year said, “I was so fed up with people looking at me like I was a stripper. People weren’t honoring our athletes, and I thought the highest accolade was to be an Olympic sport. I thought no one would sign up, but suddenly thousands of people did.”
Pole dancing must first be recognized by an International Federation ensuring the sport’s activities follow the Olympic Charter. At the 125th IOC Session in Buenos Aires, the IOC will vote on the 28 Olympic events.
Tony Parker may not be saying YOLO right now since he may have to pull out of the Olympics from an eye injury he suffered in the Chris Brown- Drake NYC club fight. The former Mr. Eva Longoria’s conrea was scratched by glass after bottles were thrown at W.i.P nightclub. W.i.P could lose its liquor license after 14 charges were filed against the club extending from the fight. Parker had to undergo an opteration to remove glass that penetrated 99% of his left eye.
Originally given a positive diganosis, Parker said in an interview posted on his website on Sunday, “I almost lost my eye. I’m seeing a specialist in New York with the hope of being given the all clear to play in the Olympic Games,” Parker said. “Spurs are very worried.”
Parker filed a $20 million lawsuit stating club owners are responsible for the “corneal laceration of the left eye and other injuries.” While US Weekly claimed Parker was apart of Brown’s entourage, Parker says in the suit he wasn’t sitting with either party, but has said he was with “my friend Chris Brown.”
France’s first Olympic game is against the United States on July 29.
