Bizarre vs erotica

Hello
I wonder if "bizarre" could be referred to "erotic dance"? actually I am not sure, I just heard (maybe misheard) conversations in a movie that one asks "what do you do?", the other said "I am a dancer". Then, "Ballet?", "No, bizarre".

  • "Bizarre" means "strange", "weird", "odd", "outlandish" etc.
  • However, other than being associated with those normal meanings, I have no idea what a "bizarre dance" is.

And (as an afterthought) what happens if her performances are erratic? Could an erratic erotic exotic bizarre bazaar belly ballet dancer drive her audience ecstatic?

That's she's under age and you're going to report her to her parents. Sheesh.
