As far as I know it's not a strip club or a lap dance place, think people are trying far too hard to see something that just isn't there.

Whoa there.
I never said it was the same thing as a strip club or lap dance club - but with the personalised performance right above their heads, it was clearly something that could be construed as being a tad risqué (my girlfriend even commented 'I bet the boys are loving that!' when she saw it with me - perhaps because of what the performers were wearing?).
It's no big deal, but it seems some of the female candidates were thinking along similar lines going on the looks on their faces.
Let's just say that particular reward was...er...far more rewarding for the boys than the girls.
