"Really, you can kind of eat whatever you want in this job because they like you to have a womanly figure" Pay attention to this.

I would love to be in the Moulin Rouge but just searched it up and the first thing I read was "MINIMUM height 5"9".....well, guess that dream is crushed!

Ok, let's debunk the myths I see in the comments. I worked briefly there as a dresser (btw I'm glad to see this place again in a vid !). Not all the girls (and boys) looks the same ; Some are 19yo, some in their 40s. You do not have the same body type after twenty years of dance. Plus, some are very tall, more than 6ft, and some... a small 5.4ft, smaller than me. I saw a girl with an almost child-like body and another one with lovely curves. Keep in mind that they are dancers, which is sport. They are athletes. Girls are out of breath and covered in sweat after only ten minutes of french-cancan (which is one of the best part of the show to me), same for the boys, and it keeps going after ; they are wearing leather jacket and dancing, ugh. So, yes, she eat what she wants, but they burn a lot of calories during the two shows. About their make-up, it must fit all costumes, and it's in those places' spirit : It's the same everywhere. Keep in mind that you can be very close to the scenery when you watch the show, or you can be very far. It doesn't matter, you don't pay attention. They all have different faces with different shapes (what I loved too there), and it unites them to have all the same make up. Anyway, if you got the chance, go to see Féerie, it's truly magical.

She has amazing taste in clothing.

When I heard her accent I didn't think her surname would be Van den Berg Cook.

I love that they all look so athletic instead of just super skinny

She really reminds me of Emily Blunt!

This is so great! She is so cute. It's so nice to see Paris from her perspective. Love this video. Thanks Mode! :D

If you're dancing every night you're probably burning hella calories anyway.

They all look like victorias secret models

When i was a teenager i was in Paris and my dad took me there. I found the atmosphere very charming and its a memory I'll carry my whole life.

Can you imagine telling your grandchildren you were once a dancer at the Legendary Moulin Rouge . And the fabulous life you'd loved in Paris 😲

Love. Very insightful. Plus she was lovely and I adore Paris. I feel very at home there.

First of all, she is gorgeous, secondly, this is a great series and please never stop doing it! :) Also, she is doing such a good job!! :)

She is not only very beautiful, but also classy. A real gem of a woman.

Reppin' Ireland in the Moulin Rouge!

I met her and her sister as her mother Hilde used to be my ballet teacher :)

You guys should do my life as an opera singer. That would be super interesting!

Having seen this show twice, I can say it's awesome. I sat transfixed for the whole time I was there. The girls are so talented, the dancing is wonderful, the whole evening will I've goosepipes. GO!!!

This was so interesting, id love to have her job

This is my DREAM job, I love dancing, performing and I'm learning French.

I went to the Moulin Rouge circa 1986. We got in free as my girlfriend's friend was a dancer there. Had an amazing time. Would love to go back again!

I've been watching this movie for several years. Love Isabelle, her taste of style and cognac jacket! :D

She really is astonishingly beautiful.

I love dancing, Paris and the Moulin Rouge. Definetly a dream job! And the girl was so nice and down to earth. I think she'd be a good friend. ❤️

I love this series. And good job, Isabelle!

I've seen a lot of "I am-"Videos by now. But I always return to this one. It is my absolute favorite!

i love mode

these costumes are amazing!

OMG her mum was my old ballet teacher

Definitely added onto my bucket list. I would love to see this live

I've seen the Moulin Rouge show in 2019, and it was beautiful. I thoroughly enjoyed the show and would definitely recommend putting it on your "things to do list" if you ever visit Paris

lmao "there is an amazing chocolate shop"...The shop is actually Jeff de Bruges which is a big ass belgium corporation that sells the same very average quality in hundreds of cities, it's like saying "oh I know this cute place to get burgers, it's called Mc Donalds"

I was there yesterday!!! love love love Paris

Beautiful presentation! Thank you for this glimpse into this world!

I was at the Moulin Rouge on my birthday 🎂 a year ago and I had a great time.

Their costumes are gorgeous!

Thats so cool. Always wanted to go there

Saw the show last night. It was SPECTACULAR!

I am in love with her accent!❤️❤️

She is ridiculously beautiful!!!!!!!

Beautiful Irish ladies.

her accent is everything 🧡🧡🧡

they're so beautiful !

Aww i wanna live in France

Amazing!!! I want this job!

I will forever think that this style of dancing and its costumes will never become outdated. They're the most glamorous, beautiful yet sexy pieces I've ever seen, even to this day.

awesome documentary! Loved this video! This is definitly on my bucket list of travels with my Husband one day! Love all the glam and costumes!

I was in that shop with chocolate and it was soooo expensive 😂 Beautiful video 💕

the eyebrow trends are definitely not the same as America

Wow the costumes are all so beautiful! What an awesome life style!

I love how they encourage them to embrace their bodies!

Irish, without the Irish accent

I don't understand why they included her advice to "be unique" and "be your own person, have your own style" while showing clips of dozens of dancers all dressed identically and dancing in perfect synchronization. Not that there is anything inherently wrong with this; it just doesn't match what she was saying. Maybe the company does value individuality and welcomes the dancers' input into the routines, but they should have showed this if they want us to take that particular advice seriously.

How very inspiring! Those splits are incredible! I'd love to see a show at Moulin Rouge :)

These costumes are gorgeous

I saw the show when I was in a Paris a couple of weeks ago and I have to say the show is not worth the amount of money you pay but it's a good "French" experience. I had good sits and there were three or four memorable numbers.

Does anyone know the title of the accordion song who begins at 2:54 ?

I loved every bit of this!!!

I’ve been stuck in this rabbit hole of different types of dances from all around the world and I regret nothing.

want her job♡

All the people saying they all look the same... Of course people who are unfamiliar to you and wear the exact same makeup and costume look similar to you.

she's stunningly beautiful

i love this. i feel super nervous just watching them do backstage stuff. eek! :-) i get so envious watching people or hearing people talk about tearing it up in a career they love. the LUCKY ones!! :-) yay! :-)

She says they can eat whatever they want but yet they all have the exact same body

i love this video. when i was young i watched the movie moulin rouge and i was very sad when i found out it wasn't really the same. its ma fave movie but this still looks awesome

When I studied abroad in Paris in 2015, I went and saw Féerie and it was absolutely amazing. I have so much respect for all the performers. Thank you for a spectacular experience!!

She is so pretty!

How much does a ticket cost there?

They are all so beautiful! Their bodies are picture perfect TT_TT I'm so jealous! also is there a name for the song that plays at 2:55?? I really really love it!

Thanx so much for this wee peek into La Moulin Rouge. I always dreamed I'd go to Paris after finishing school, work on the streets creating impressionist paintings, sipping endless cafe au laits, then dancing and drinking the night away in some bar at night. Instead, I followed the sensible path, became a Nurse, and have been studying and working ever since. I just finished two exams over 24 hours and this was what I needed to see just to boost my flagging spirits, especially at this time with the COVID-19 pandemic. I still haven't been to Paris either :(

What an amazing life style! Love it

I get the feeling that Moulin Rouge management wanted a specific image to come across in the interview. For one, the Moulin Rouge dancers have the same shape as show girls in Las Vegas or the Rockettes. They are very thin, but very buxom in comparison to their overall weight and shape. Dancers are athletes and it seemed insincere that the Moulin Rouge dancers can eat whatever they want. Seems more like they would need to make sure they are getting the right kinds of carbs and protein and they probably have mandatory weigh-ins to prevent any of the dancers from gaining much weight. I think the dancer wanted to quell any notion of food restriction or eating disorders. Notice the focus on chocolates and sweets? She also wanted to show that the Moulin Rouge is a sort of a family. Possibly. But many dance professions are still about being the best, or getting the best dance role. There is a lot of competition in dance as there is always someone that can do higher leg kicks, are younger or prettier, etc. For those saying that the dancers are thin because they dance. The answer is yes and no. There are professional dancers of all sizes and shapes, some are thicker or have more muscle. They are dancers, just maybe not the image or look that the Moulin Rouge wants to project in its brand. Many modern dancers have shapes that are curvier with more muscle than the Moulin Rouge or showgirls image. To be a Vegas showgirl or a dancer at the Moulin Rouge, you probably have to have the type of body type that stays slim more easily, or you have a different body type and know what foods to eat and how often to exercise to keep the shape that the company prefers. It seems like this video wanted to show how great and carefree being a Moulin Rouge dancer can be. 😳

The food may be terrible and the champagne is even worse but the Moulin Rouge will take up residence in your soul. The history in that building & in Momartre is a wild circus. Working there must be a dream!

Thank you so much for this! Amazing!

thanks for this glimpse into a life that although very glamorous, is also hard work! So beautiful!

Does anyone know the music at 2:54 ?

Does anyone know the song playing at 3:00?

Best Show ever!

My wife and I were in Paris April 2018......Love the city!!!!!Next time we will see the show!

After having watched so many Cirque do Soleil videos, this kind of stuff looks really REALLY easy...

okay moving to paris bc I have a new job 😛

i love the overall mood of the video!

That place has really evolved, wow ❤❤

Holy fuck. I NEVER KNEW IT WAS A REAL PLACE WHAT THE FUCK HAVE I BEEN DOING WITH MY SELF?!!!???

I saw a fight break out at the cafe she came out of LOL

Fascinating! Thanks for the insight!

SO AMAZING!!!❤️

@1:09 "I was really amazed by that French culture" She was in a Belgian shop ahah

Amazing! I'd love to see the show one day.

Wow she's so beautiful.

be unique, be your own person, to get the job then follow a coregraphy where non of that shows.. nice

My Latina self is only 5'0, damn. It seems like in the industry you have to be TALL and curvy, or at least average height. I got the curvy part down at least? LMAOO

I have a great coffee table book about the Moulin Rouge all the history, costumes, amazing dancers. Its wonderful such an iconic place lasts still.

Thanks for your video, we didn't get a chance to see your show when last in Paris in 2014. Gave us a little look to see what we missed. Thanks,

"You can eat whatever you want because they want you to have a womanly figure" *has pencil legs and is a size double 0*

Goals af, goddamnit. Do they accept black girls?

A lot of energy and streching exercise. I love streching.

she is gorgeous
