I Just Wanna Dance

Who would’ve thought dancing would become so popular that dancers would get their own teevee shows and movies. You have Dancing With the Stars, Step It Up and Dance, the MTV dance show, and the movie about getting served…whatever the fuck that means. The only show I sometimes watch is Dancing With the Stars, not because I want to, but because it’s the show my girlfriend loves to watch. So I’m put through three hours of torture for the sake of love. I know I’m the best girlfriend in the world. Anyway, I’ve come to appreciate the waltz and the tango because of Dancing With the Stars. I so want to learn the waltz but I have a little problem…I have two left feet.

On to Step It Up and Dance. I’ve only seen one episode and it was by chance. One of the chicks caught my eye. The blonde chick named Jessica. What can say I love me some white chicks. Unfortunately, she was eliminated on that same episode. Poor girl couldn’t dance like a hip-hop star. Now that she’s gone I have no reason to tune in. As for the dancing one crew had the gayest routine I’ve ever seen. It was made up three guys and one of the guys pulls an imaginary chain on the two other guys. It has to been seen to really grasp how gay it was.

Next is the MTV dance show hosted by Slater. What was the rating for this show? You have all these crews vying for some sort of prize, which I have no clue what it was. Watching snippets of the show I kept asking myself what would become of these crews. It’s not like they’ll get a contract with a studio because they’re good dancers. They’re not going to be backup dancers for Usher since he already has his people. I don’t know what the great payoff is for these crews. I guess if it makes them happy then all the power to them. Even if this type of niche entertainment will cease to exist in a couple of years.

One last thing regarding these shows it has to do with the battle scene or contest. All these shows like Step It Up and Dance and the movie about getting served have a battle scene or contest. It’s plain ole silly when they battle. It’s like watching West Side Story. The dancers make these tough faces like they’re going to tear your head off. But instead of scraping they just gyrate their pelvis. It’s too fucking funny. Why don’t they fight like the good ole days?
