Riverdale: 10 Craziest Moments (So Far)
3. Betty's Striptease (Season 2)
This next crazy moment stirred up some controversy which is unusual for Riverdale. Back in Season Two, Betty performed a striptease in front of the Southside Serpents gang. Betty wished to join the gang but was told by Toni that all female Serpents had to perform the 'Serpent Dance' - this was the striptease - as a form of initiation.
No one seemed to question this weirdly, misogynistic rule but the gang is 90% male. Clearly no one has any interest in bringing these rules into 2019. Regardless, Betty went through with it in another classic Riverdale musical moment. Yes, they had to add a song - this is Riverdale after all. Betty performed Tears For Fears' 'Mad World.'
Betty was supposed to be 16 or 17 here, yet she performed a striptease in a bar full of men. Adding to the weirdness was the fact that both her mom, Alice, and her boyfriend's dad, FP, were in attendance. FP was even the first one to clap. It seemed as if this was to break the awkward silence but regardless, everything about this scene was downright crazy.
