Hey - they don’t call ’em floats for nothing!

ballroom-diva..........Hahahahahah....LOL.......hilarious comment about the floats.....thaks for the laugh!

dancers changing in the restroom(s) is disgusting, you go in there to find toilet roll, hairspray and fake tan all over the washbasins.

learn to change in your hotel if you're that worried about being revealed to the world.

well to be quite frank, dancers get treated like dirt at competitions

we should all be sending our support to thedancingchannels as they are trying to fight our corner

Posting revealing pictures of underage dancers is not illegal? Really!

How could they get changed at hotels? Are they going to walk their in their dancing costume? They'd need to get changed to get there. Sort of defeats the purpose.
I'm starting competitions soon and I would be absolutely horrified if someone started taking photos of me half dressed! I'm not the type to wear anything revealing so there would be a HUGE difference from what I would be wearing on the dance floor and my underwear!
I hope they do start providing changing facilities.

It depends on the competition. In the US, many (especially pro-am) comps are held at hotels and many dancers stay at the same hotel, so then you can get dressed in your room and walk to the ballroom--just getting a few odd looks from non-dance hotel guests :)! But in some cases, that's not possible.
