The Beyonce Back Bend

Aug 28, 2006 18:15

I know I'm not the only person who does the dance routines from videos in their room. I cant be. I refuse to believe that. I'm not afraid to admit that I do it. What? It's good exercise and fun. Bite me.

I love the video for 'Deja Vu.' Kiss my ass, that's good shit. I really like the end, as it is an improptu tribute to Josephine Baker. Yes, it is. Yes...yes, it is. Sheesh, ignorance, I tell you. I dont care what you say, that's what it is.

I can totally recreate that and I do. It's fun. The most fun part is doing the back bend. Man, I nail that every time. My only downfall is when she does the Tina Turner treck backwards and she bends and gets that one hand to brace on the ground...I dont trust myself enough to do that yet.

I'm afraid I'll fall and bust my ass and have to explain that in the emergency room. That's not a good look. Trust me.

"So, tell me how you injured yourself and threw your back all out of whack, again?"

"Well, you see, Bee--that's short for Beyonce, cause I'm a fan like that--has this video called 'Deja Vu,' right?"

"Uh huh."

"And there's this part where she's dressed kinda like Josephine Baker but she's doing a Tina Turner back track and she does this back bend--I kill on the back bend--and then things went down hill from there."

"....riiiigghhht."

And then I'm left looking mad stupid at the hospital. No thanks...I'll work my way up to that level of acrobatism, thank you very much. I'm just getting my shit together on that 'Crazy in Love' stuff. Dont get me started on 'Baby Boy' and 'Naughty Girl' cause I kinda got those down too.

But yes, the Beyonce back bend....I nail that sumbitch quite hard. Catch me in the club, son! Shut it, Kingwood.
