Talk:French ballet

étoile vs. principal
There is an incorrect blending of étoiles and principal dancers in the following: "'... he (Nureyev) formed and named a whole generation of young principals ('Étoiles'), called the Nureyev Babies....'" A dancer need not be a principal to be annointed étoile, and Sylvie Guillem was not. — Robert Greer (talk) 13:18, 25 February 2011 (UTC)
