You know I love a good mash-up.
Especially if it comes with a beat you can dance to.
But toss in body glitter and Single Lady fingers? And the secret Dance Moms/Toddlerz Connection? And maybe even your name spelled out in lightbulbs?
Yes, please. Bonus points immediately given. No questions asked.
Which would explain this random assortment of videos…some hot off the press and some from the ALDC vault…that make me smile. And you need to watch them.
Or rewatch them, if that’s how you do.
Like my girl Nia Sioux, who is hash tagging her Star In Your Own Life message to the masses right now, courtesy of the exceptionally fabulous Mikey Minden and some of that diva fierceness she got from her Mama. Don’t try this at home, kids.
Or youtube king Todrick Hall, who had me at Beauty And The Beat back in 2012.
His latest jam, 4 Beyoncé From Todrick, won me over before I even hit the play button.
You have no idea how difficult it is to find good quality colored crew neck tee shirts that don’t stretch out after you pull them over your head. (Trust me…the struggle is real.) And in four different deeply saturated colors that don’t fade? Take me shopping, dude.
Todrick’s latest video compresses something redoinkulous like 5 albums and 70 Beyoncé songs (…which is pretty much every Beyoncé song in the history of Beyoncé songs…) into a four minute jam that I can’t stop watching. But more importantly, the video shows that when you strip the guy of his mouse ear hat and floppy cartoon gloves and just focus on what he’s doing…he’s straight up genius.
And speaking of mouse ear hat and cartoon gloves.
Don’t forget Freaks Like Me when Maddie, Mackenzie, Payton and Kendall joined Nia at the Abby Lee Miller School of Dance and Disney Acid Trips for a library dance-off.
They even said “Yolo.” So there’s that.
Full disclosure: I don’t remember much about this video after my MomCrush Jill danced, but I’m sure the rest of it was good.
And one last flashback to when it all started for the ALDC gang.
The official Lux music video for It’s Like Summer with Chloe, Brooke and Paige.
It makes me miss Chloe. And feel very old.
Look at how little they are…
So do enjoy this musical interlude.
And stay tuned for Kendall’s upcoming military video Wear Em Out.
Abby says it’s gonna be yummy.
