 La Goulue - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
La Goulue (1866 – January 30, 1929) was the stage name of Louise Weber, a French Cancan dancer.
They danced at the renowned Moulin Rouge in Montmartre when it first opened, performing an early form of the Cancan known as the "chalut." The two were instant stars but it was Weber who stole the show with her outrageously captivating conduct.
Following the closure of her show, La Goulue disappeared from the public eye.

The artist was a frequent visitor to the club, armed with both sketchpad and alcohol, and became personal friends with several of the performers, whom he painted in a vivid series of posters.

La Goulue, the teenage laundress Louise Weber, was a self-taught dancer with a dazzling technique, impressive extensions, and an impudent stage presence that endeared her to patrons (She even got away with saying, "Ullo, Wales, are you paying for the champagne?" to the Prince of Wales).

The artful script is credited to Anthony Veiller and John Huston from Pierre La Mure's novel (a ghost of a life in words alone).
Collette Marchand as the prostitute, Marie Charlet, with whom Lautrec falls in love, gives one of the most indelible and convincing performances ever captured -- almost as if Huston had found a turn-of-the-century French "child of the gutters" who happened to be a brilliant actress, instead of vice versa.

By 1891, at the age of 27, he was already a sensation with his poster of dancer Louise Weber, known as "La Goulue," or "The Greedy One." Three thousand copies were plastered around Paris; many were torn down by souvenir hunters.
"La Goulue dancing," Thompson remarked to Safer, "(was) a form of the can-can, which was rather lascivious, and that kind of dote-like energy is very apparent in the way she's posed."
And her partner, Safer observed, looks like an India rubber man.
