I go to a school with many races and all of them general agree that white girls cannot in fact dance.

After seeing this I have got to say that statement is completely blown out of the water!

Ha! So that is where that annoying .gif image that has circulated around the web with different heads on her body came from.

Well...You do know stage performers have choreographers, right? She was probably just doing what she was told, not that I see anything wrong with her wiggling.

I'm white and can dance clap.gif

I cant

I'm white and can dance. Although it looks jerky and out of rhythm and sorta spastic.
MissMelsWell
if you wanna see white girls that can dance like that it's easy to find them.... but you'll need to overlook the pole and pasties. rofl.gif

MissMelsWell
ahhaha, after finding the original uncut video in French, I have to say this girl definitely can't dance. That looks like some contorted type of cheerleading meets jazzercize. rofl.gif

I have to say though, I found another vid of her singing La Isla Bonita and it was really good.
kiddglock
Just another stripper. I've seen better dances from strippers than that one, twenty years ago. She doesn't move around much, just shakes her money-maker. I'd give her a 6 out of 10 maybe.
MissMelsWell
I finally figured out why she's so well known now... there's a character in World of Warcraft that does her little dance. It appears this little gal Alizée was the inspriation for the Night Elf character's dance. Took me a minute to put that one together since I'm not a WOW'er. Or maybe I'm just slow grin2.gif

Can white girls dance? I don't know.. what's it compared to.. Asian girls, black girls?
Some black girls can't dance.. er that is unless you consider, falling on all fours, shaking your ass in the air like you're having an epileptic fit, while at the same time doing an impression of someone being electrocuted by 240 volts, dancing? Then yeah, sure they can dance... I guess. laugh.gif

well.... White men can't jump.

They even made it into a movie yes.gif

Of course white girls can dance. But miss Alizee isn't the best example though. whistling2.gif
She looks kinda cheap and her dance moves are, well huh.gif .
A LOT of girls are much better dancers than her.
I don't think the ability to dance has ANYTHING to do with race, though. happy.gif

She's got some boom on her, that's the only reason it looks remotely good when she moves. She does not have a clue what she's doing, no sense of whole body rhythm.

I wish white girls would stop dancing like this, it gives all of us a bad name! crying.gif

I've got a little boom myself but I know what to do with it. tongue.gif However, what passes for dancing most of the time now is simply sexual innuendo. Very tacky. Any mindless person can dance like this to attract a partner. Boooring...
And the bootie does not always have to be hanging out and the center of attention. What a cheap move. Sublety, girls. A little self-respect? Just a little? Remember, you often get what you ask for when you imitate sexual moves and call it "dancing."

Agreed. Girl you said it! linked-image

And real dancing is about feeling the rhythm, feeling the music. And that shows when you move. People can tell when a person is dancing because he/she feels the music or because he/she wants to attract attention.

Anyhow, I LOVE to dance.

C'mon, join me people! linked-image

That banana's got it going on. He's definitely feeling... something! blink.gif

But a slow dance with a respectful man not trying to put his hand all over you beats the crap that passes for dancing nowadays. ^Al Green should be involved somewhere in that scenario^

The race card is the funniest card to watch people play.

It's the most tense one for me to watch lol.


Waltz anyone ? clap.gif
MissMelsWell
Actually, she has a fairly decent voice if you hear the real song she sings, but if you watch the uncut video you'll see the dance isn't as salacious as it appears in that first video, in fact it's way more innocent (and goofy). Ya, her hiney is hangin' out of her costume, but I think that's a French thing. haha. And ya can't deny she's got a cute little figure. She's also a lot older than she looks and she is in fact married and has children.

I think she's actually kind of adorable, she made a name for herself based on that little terrible dance she does. If you watch her on several different appearences on various shows, she always performs that song in that outfit and the dance steps are always exactly the same.

The real video in French

Personally, I think she's way better and way more innocent than the Brittney and Christina's of this world. I see this little gal as more of a Pop-Moulin Rouge performer. haha
EmpressStarXVII
It looks like a french version of american idol. The two ladies didn't look impressed lol. I like how she started the song like a country line dance tongue.gif.

You want fair treatment well I will give it to you.

I'm white and I can dance!!!!!!!!!

Can't see the vid owing to work restrictions....
when.i.am.queen.
I'm white, and I've been dancing for seven years.
So maybe she isn't the best example...
but seriously
the majority of female ballet dancers are white
and no one could accuse them of not dancing.

Nope, though the arguement for not eating would have a case...

I think it should just be "Uncoordinated" people.....

Like "uncoordinated people can't dance"
"Uncoordinated people can't jump"
"Uncoordinated people can't jump rope in the shower"

See... it works.

Agreed. yes.gif It has nothing to do with race. original.gif

But, ROFL @ "Uncoordinated people can't jump rope in the shower." Hahaha! laugh.gif

There are people of all races that can and can't dance. To make such claims is ignorant, even racist from a certain point of view. Dancing is a natural response of our bodies to rhythm. And it's beautiful. And lol, even the uncoordinated people can LEARN IT! rofl.gif (I have my own uncoordinated brother as proof. tongue.gif )

Dancing is a wonderful way to express yourself. To the OP; don't let anyone ever tell you you can't dance hun. Cos you can. thumbsup.gif

I don't know about her other dance videos but since this one was given as an example of her dancing skills I would have to say huh.gif .

And about the good/bad dancing skills I'd say that's a matter of personal taste.

Ok, I couldn't resist this one; here they are maj, dancing together just for you: rofl.gif

<----- is Croatian. *feels smug* grin2.gif

But I also don't think it has anything to do with nationality either. People of all colors, nationalities, sizes, beliefs, hair colors and pop corn flavor preferences CAN dance. Unless they're uncoordinated. tongue.gif But I already said that so I don't want to repeat myself. whistling2.gif

That's my method for doing Jamaican ragga dance hall. Think like you're doing the chicken walk, with one leg, while mentally focusing on michael flatley.
Be at one with him. original.gif

I haven't seen the world
But I know only for Croatia
So I can tell only for croatia original.gif

I agree that does not mater what nationality you are, you just have to be coordinated that you can dance original.gif
Kalien
I like that song, its the only song of her's that I like. I am a "white" girl and I can't dance. "White" as in my skin is very pale and I am 1/4 German but the rest is Native American and Spanish/Latino. Lol genetics.

Just about anyone can learn how to dance, I suppose, it really is all about feeling the music.

Totaly true
Feeling the music is one big step to great dancing
I know when I first find that out
I was drunk but I still felt it original.gif
That's whay I live for the music today grin2.gif
MissMelsWell
I can dance and I'm seriously wonda'h bread. I didn't spend 15 years of my young life taking ballet, gymnastics and competitive diving and not learn a little coordination and grace. But, I have to say, there is one dance I'm REALLY great at... POLKA! I can polka my little heart out for hours, or until the beer runs out or the accordian player passes out, which ever comes first.

I hate when people say a certain race can't do something. I can dance and I'm white, so can other white people. Gosh.
StoneAgeQueen
I've seen better dancers than her in night clubs. The only thing she's doing is moving her arse around.
Katkandoo_kw
some can...I am not one of those people...I can do the macarena, chicken dance, the hokey pokey, I can dance really REALLY well to save a horse, ride a cowboy wink2.gif my friends and I made a dance to it, its not too much of real dance more like moves to it, and a little dance my bff and I made up to the song "Hey Baby" by no doubt...but other than that I can at a dance walk out on the floor and move to music, but I'll mainly stay in one spot...cause I suck at dancing I remember in spanish class in first grade we were to sit in a circle and one by one we would go up and say something in spanish, I can't remember the word but it either meant dance or go...I'm thinking dance, and anyway I looked down at my feet when I was up and slowly turned in circles...I suck at dancing lol
edit:
I can dance when alone though just realized after posting today lol
