* StartMyOwn: Michael Flatley put together "Lord Of The Dance" after his attempt to negotiate for more creative control over Riverdance fell through and he was replaced by Colin Dunne in the Riverdance troupe. Of course, uh, there are certain allegations that it had something to do with Flatley's emphasis on fanservice. While [[Administrivia/RuleOfCautiousEditingJudgement this wiki reserves judgement]], it is worth noting that the costumes for 'Breakout', the so-called 'strip jig', went from sports bras and athletics shorts to bikinis following the move to "Lord of the Dance."
