Dalia Perez has a seat in Veracruz’s state legislature. Thing is, she once rubbed that seat all up and down a pole for a movie role. Someone posted a video of it on YouTube, and now some lawmakers in Mexico are all like “¡Ay los boobies!”

Before winning a seat in Veracruz state’s legislature in September, Dalia Perez worked as a local television show presenter and she co-starred in the 2006 movie “Xalapeno Chiles,” playing a table dancer named Ana having an affair with a powerful politician.

A clip from the film posted online this week shows Perez performing a pole-dance striptease as a man looks on from a hotel bed. Mexico’s most-watched morning television news show broadcast the image on Thursday.

Some lawmakers and the local press have lampooned Perez. “It’s unfortunate that Rep. Perez is better known for her acting work than for her activities as a lawmaker,” said Uriel Flores a rival party congressman.

But other women in the legislature defended her. Margarita Guillaumin, of Flores’ party, complained the film images were shown “to create morbid interest. The intention was decadent.”

Oh pish posh. If we found out Hillary Clinton liked to sit on cakes, cover herself in guacamole, and throw cigars at a hog-tied Bill or that Matt Gonzalez is into pony play and furry sex, we wouldn’t care if there was a YouTube video of it! That we would watch over and over and over! And over. And overrrr.
