Check out this documentary about the late Charlotte Moorman, aka the Topless Cellist. A Little Rock, Ark. beauty pageant winner turned professional cellist who performed with Stokowski, turned avant garde performance artist playing topless and/or with a television on her head, or even -- gasp -- music by John Cage. Arrested (should I say busted?) and convicted for onstage nudity in NYC, barred from Carnegie Hall, guest on the Johnny Carson show, etc.Your Vogue and Elle babe cellist has some catching up to do.
