Stripping gimmick in Singapore?

Japanese comedian strips at 881 
MINDEE Ong never expected the stripper.
She was in Japan promoting 881 when a man started stripping on stage at the Tokyo premiere of director Royston Tan's hit movie.
The actress, who played 'Little Papaya' in the film about getai singers, was with co-star Yeo Yann Yann when the man suddenly appeared in a bathrobe, reported Lianhe Wanbao.
Right after he said hi to the crowd, he threw off his robe, pulled down his pants, and gyrated on stage wearing only a colourful pair of Y-fronts.It turned out that the man was an entertainer, but Mindee was not told about the stunt beforehand.
GIMMICK
The surprised actress said: 'Later, I heard that the stripper was actually a popular Japanese comedian named Mitchy.'He specialises in emulating people, and I understand that in Japan, if you are good at that, you can quickly rise in the entertainment circle.'
But Mindee could not understand why a comedian would use stripping as a gimmick at first.
But she saw the crowd break into peals of laughter, so clearly it worked.
Could such a stunt work in Singapore as a publicity ploy?
Papaya Sisters Mindee Ong and Yeo Yann were taken aback when a Japanese comedian named Mitchy unexpectedly undressed in front of them.
'It could possibly work in the Singapore market. After all, no one has done it yet.'If you let someone like local comedian Mark Lee or Hong Kong funnyman Dayo Wong do it, it'll be very funny.'
However, having a woman do it wouldn't work, opined Mindee, because it would be sexual.
imho
Singapore? Strip gimmick? Bull. It'll be faced with huge resistance. I believe it would be very much welcomed with the minority groups that view such acts as good entertainment but some will stand out and say that it is not suitable for viewership in public...
