I'm not sure the name for this style of performance. The girl would do a robot-like dance to a drum when a tip was given, and pause in between. So, basically, they're the opposite of a professional model, because they pose for pictures only if they haven't been paid lately.

This is one of the pictures I took of a gathering of buskers and city representitives, to discuss new rules for buskers in Calgary. It was held at Olympic Plaza in downtown Calgary to let people know that buskers can now legally perform in far more places, and without requiring a permit or payment of fees. There was a mix of announcements, discussion, and performance. More information is available on Facebook in the group called "The Calgary Buskers/Street Performers Community".
