Oh how we love you narcissistic animals....

-
Seeing as it's Friday we have a special treat for aaaaalllll (used in the most ironic sense) blog readers out there! We here at the Lady Boys HQ love animals, big animals, small animals, medium animals, fictitious animals and especially vain animals, so what we have for you today is our round-up of the best animal selfies that we have collated from all over the weird and wonderful land of the Internet! This blog post was inspired by the selfie monkey which has been all over the news recently for his rather dashing self portrait taken with a stolen camera! Kim Kardashian aint got nothing on this prehensile picture prodigy!

First up we have what has to be the internet's favourite animal, the domestic cat....Now if you get all your factual information on the evolution of animals from Cravendale adverts as we do, you'll know that cat's have developed opposable thumbs and with these thumbs have apparently become quite self obsessed. Evidence of which is below (the bottom one has to be our favourite).


 
It's not just Cats that love a selfie, the natural arch enemy Dogs have also known to partake this this self photography. If we were as happy as the first dog, and had as much swag as the second our lives would be complete....



You may be thinking that selfie Monkey is forerunner in the world of exotic animal selfies, but he is in fact just one of a long line of photo savvy animals from all over the globe. In fact we are pretty sure that if any other animal had invented the camera first this selfie craze would have come about alot sooner than it has for us Humans.




And lets not forget some of the animals we have here in the UK as well! Does anyone else think the horse on the left looks abit like Robbie Savage? 



Now this selfie may not have strictly been taken by the Llama, or is that an Alpaca? Well for now lets dub it a Llamaca! But the sheer joy it's face is a good enough reason to share it with you as any! 
When alls said and done what can be better than pretending animals can take selfies and laughing at the results? What's that you say? The Lady Boys of Bangkok playing their second weekend of show in Edinburgh! Well your in luck, because they are. We are loving Edinburgh at the moment, a venue that never fails to amaze. If your after tickets then look no further, obvious link time - LINK -
What your favourite animal selfie? Don't be shy and share them with us on Twitter @TheLadyBoys or Facebook!

A brief history of clowns to celebrate Andreea's birthday!

-

Hip hip hooray! It’s our crazy clown Andreea’s birthday! The lovable Andreea has been appearing in shows with Gandeys Circus for nearly a decade. Now Andreea is actually French – so perhaps we should say ‘bon anniversaire’! We’re proud to have Andreea as part of our current team in the big top at Butlin’s Skegness . While our other clowns – currently performing at Butlin’s Bognor Regis and Minehead – Bippo and Chico Rico are more traditional, Andreea opts to show off her sense of style with an offbeat modern look. We think her pink tutu / Converse / blazer combo is pretty iconic… especially paired with her blasting boombox! (she’s never been shy of making an entrance). Andreea likes interrupting the action with her silly routines. And you know something else… she is the UK’s only female clown! So you could say she’s a bit of an innovator when it comes to clowning around. With that in mind, let’s look at how much clowns have changed ov

Origins of the Chinese Circus

200 BC – 200 AD – Han Dynasty, Sichuan Province – Juggler with balls and knives – Carving, stone of the “Hundred Games.” [source: Chinese Acrobatics Through The Ages, p15] The origins of the Chinese circus are not entirely crystal clear. There are debates and differing opinions when it comes to the exact history behind the circus, which is not a surprise when you take into account how long it has been around! First records of the Chinese circus - including carvings and mural paintings - date back more than 2,000 years to the Warring States period (475–221 BC), with evidence of performances developing further during the Qin and Han Dynasties (221 BC - 230 AD). Although it is believed that the art may have actually started around 3,000 years ago! One theory is that the acts originated in imperial courts, with performers entertaining the houses in a manner similar to western court jesters. However, it is more likely that the circus was a folk art that was later adopted by

In honour of International Women's Day and the 'Women in Circus' movement, we would like to share these photos of strong women with whom we have worked - past and present. Women who inspire us here at Gandey World Class Productions , and who influence and empower other women across the world. There are many strong circus women who we have not mentioned here. Please be aware that this list is by no means definitive – there are so many more strong women whom we would have loved to include, and who remain an important part of the Gandey family. The pictures can also be found in a Flickr album here .
