Bad boy is fired for telling male ballet dancers to man up
mainSergei Polunin is at it again.
He has just been fired by the Paris Opéra Ballet for remarks that have been construed as sexist or homophobic.
He posted something on Instagram a month ago, telling male dancers to man up and females that they were not getting enough. Mild, for Polunin.
The Paris boss responded today by firing him.
Official statement:
Compte tenu des propos publics tenus par Sergei Polunin, Aurélie Dupont, Directrice de la danse, a pris la décision de ne plus inviter l’artiste.
Ces propos n’étant pas en adéquation avec ses valeurs et celles de l’Institution.— Opéra de Paris (@operadeparis) January 14, 2019
