Nini Legs-in-the-Air

Nini-Legs-in-the-Air (played by Caroline O'Connor) is one of “the Four whores of the apocalypse (Zidler’s most infamous dancers)” and quite possibly the most recognizable of the Diamond Dogs. She has a sarcastic personality that shows some bitterness to Satine. She, like Môme Fromage, is named after a real Moulin Rouge dancer.

Appearance

She may be the most recognizable of all the Moulin Rouge dancers with her bright red and yellow costume. She is considered to have the best legs out of all the dancers, waving them around likening them to windmills. Her skirt is also decorated with red windmills, amplifying her windmill theme.

Dances

She takes the leader role of Moulin Rouge's most famous dance, the Can Can. She is highly skilled in this dance and faces almost no competition, except from the cross-dresser Travesty.

She also leads "El Tango de Roxanne", dancing with The Narcoleptic Argentinean, as well as "Hindi Sad Diamonds" before Satine appears.

Personality

She is a bitter, sarcastic woman who is jealous of Satine's fame. When Satine fell off the trapeze, she jokingly asked Mome Fromage if The Duke was gonna get his money's worth for Satine's less than spectacular performance. During the rehearsal of "Hindi Sad Diamonds", Nini let it slip to the Duke that Satine was secretly seeing Christian, hoping to ruin Satine's love life.
