A lady has shared her shock after attending a risque event at a Belfast bar that's now being looked into by the police.
The UK Pleasure Boys brought their XXL tour to The Devenish Complex in Finaghy on Saturday, February 17. Videos from the event have been shared widely online, showing the dancers fully nude and interacting with attendees.
The woman, who didn't want to be named, told Belfast Live: "Myself and few friends attend the event on Saturday night. I myself was not drinking but other friends were." She added: "The men themselves put on good show the first half then after a long break the second half took a turn. I have never seen anything like it, was gob-smacked, but I did not leave as it was all for laugh and was glad that none of the men came near me as I would have died off."
The event cost £15 a ticket and was advertised as a 'Valentine's Weekend Special'. The owner of Pleasure Boys, John Woodward, said the event includes "dancing, fire, and acrobatics" before the "full reveal" of nudity towards the end. He explained that the videos online show a surprise ending to the show. When the performers came out for their final bow, some women got up on stage, he told BBC's Nolan Show.
John said: "The videos are the ending where the girls stormed the stage, this wasn't planned, this just happened. The boys came out and took a bow and the girls stormed the stage, then they carried on dancing with the girls. They weren't just going to walk off at the stage at that point."

He also said: "There was absolutely no sexual contact during the show. Everything we do, it's crowd participation and everything is simulated, there's no sort of sexual acts going on during the show."
But a woman who was there said it wasn't true. She said: "The end of the show where the Pleasure Boys' manager stated that the women stormed the stage is not true; the boys asked for girls to go up on stage to dance with each of them. At this point the men only had their trousers on, no tops."
She added: "To which it ended the men stripping down to nothing and doing what they did as you see in videos being shared on social media. Women were out for a laugh but the ending was uncalled for and a disgrace in my opinion. We left at that point as it was wild!" The police said they got "one report" about the event on Saturday night. The Devenish Bar has been asked to comment.
