dancer[/h]
Volochkova was controversially fired from the Bolshoi in 2003
The Bolshoi Ballet has been mired in further controversy after a former soloist claimed female dancers were forced to sleep with wealthy patrons.
Anastasia Volochkova accused the theatre's general director of turning the company "into a giant brothel".
Outspoken Volochkova, who has dabbled in TV talent and talk shows, was fired from the Bolshoi in 2003 for being too heavy.
General director Anatoly Iksanov dismissed the claims as "ravings".
Volochkova made the allegations during an interview on a television talk show in Russia on Sunday, later repeating them in a radio interview with Russian News Service.
"It mainly happened with the corps du ballet but also with the soloists," she said.
