LuAyne Brown, who goes by the stage name Lulu, claims to be the worlds heaviest pole dancer, at 18 stone.
While the 29-year-old mum-of-two from Maryland might be twice the size of her fellow female pole dancers, she reckons she boasts double the tricks.
Shes got a whole repertoire of lifts, splits, knee-holds and spins in her arsenal and regularly competes on the pole dancing circuit.
As she puts it, shes got it all in her locker and theres no move she cant perform. Go Lulu.
She may be twice the size of other women but LuAyne Brown boasts double the tricks - because shes the worlds heaviest pole dancer. Flame-haired Lulu, 29, insists shes never felt sexier since taking up the sport and showcasing her unbelievable moves. Driven by a desire to promote body acceptance she regularly wows audiences as she gracefully swings her agile curves in competitions. From splits to knee holds and even upside down elbow stands the 252lb (18 stone) dancer has it all in her locker and claims there is no move she cant perform.
Lulu, whos a US size 22, says shes never felt sexier than she has since taking up the sport back in 2006, following a loss of confidence after the birth of her first child.
As a former competitive cheerleader shes a two-time National Cheerleaders Association All-Star Cheerleader and dance student, Lulu knew she had the moves, but was nervous about stripping off for her first pole-dancing class.
However, when she saw the class was full of women of all shapes and sizes she soon got over her nerves and was hooked from the very first spin. After posting her early competition performances on YouTube, shes now amassed a huge following and hopes that by competing and showing off her graceful moves, she will help promote body confidence in others.
Following a diagnosis of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome in 2011, shes even turned her hobby into a charity venture by organising regular pole dance battles which help raise money towards PCOS research.
The flame-haired dancer, who hopes to go pro one day, has even got a practice pole in her house so she can perform for her number one fan, hubby Will.
LOL
Never *have* I been...and never *will* I be...that desperate.
I guess I’m luckier than some but I’ve never been *that* desperate!
