BIZZARE: Female Journalist Takes Off Her Clothes While Interviewing Local Government Leader

Lori Welbourne, a columnist and blogger was chatting with mayor of Kelowna , Walter Gray on the topic of female toplessness when she decided removing her top mid-interview.

Lori Welbourne, who hosts the radio show On The Rocks and writes a column for the Province newspaper, was talking to Walter Gray, mayor of Kelowna in British Columbia, about whether it was legal in the town for women to bare their breasts in public.

'What if I went walking down the street topless?' she asked in the recorded interview.

The ABC newspaper columnist and radio host told him to hold the microphone, took off her halter top and asked about his views on women baring their breasts in public would be arrested, in anticipation of Sunday’s Go Topless Day.

Welbourne then undid the strap on her dress, exposing her breasts.

'What are you doing,' he asked, to which she replied, 'it's really hot in here.'

After regaining his composure, Gray explained that while someone may be tempted to call the police there is little authorities could do because it is in fact entirely legal for a woman to be topless anywhere a man can be.

Public toplessness is not illegal anywhere in Canada unless it's deemed to be indecent. It is also legal for women in a range of American states though plenty still outlaw.

'So I can go topless here in Kelowna?' Welbourne went on.

'Well, evidently,' Gray said. 'I'm not suggesting you should do that but I don't think you’d be committing any crime or breaking any bylaw.'
