Dennis Rodman Ate Lavish 15-Course Feast, Watched All-Female Orchestra Perform Rocky Theme In North Korea

If you thought the details of Dennis Rodman‘s whirlwind trip to North Korea couldn’t get any more bizarre, you were very, very wrong. TMZ has revealed some more information about how Rodman and Kim Jong-un spent their quality time together.

In a country where widespread starvation is still a major problem, Rodman and the North Korean supreme leader feasted on 15 courses, which included sushi, turkey, beef filet, kimchi, and a whole roasted pig.

After dinner, the two men were serenaded by the Moranbong Band, an all-female orchestra famous for their covers of American TV and movie theme songs, including Bill Conti‘s Oscar-nominated “Gonna Fly Now” from Rocky.

You can enjoy video of the orchestra performing that song in North Korea below, complete with dramatic footage of Sylvester Stallone playing in the background:
