This guy has no idea what he's talking about...

I know how much we love to complain about various YouTube comments, so... Someone left Leigh Ann not 1, not 2, but 3 comments in a row saying the following on her Last Pole Dance from the Original BeSpun video... I understand he (she?) may have been trying to be helpful, but I think he's completely misunderstanding pole dance... And from the last 2 comments, I'm not even sure if he was being serious or just being an ass: "Hey Leigh....so here is some constructive criticism for improvements: 1. Its nice that you are a great dancer and dont have a "slutty face" like a lot of pole dancers. you look sweet. 2. Your understanding of rythym, balance,? tempo, and progression with movement and music is wonderful. 3. You are at your sexiest on the floor, around the pole, walking around it and dancing around it. Climbing the pole is fun for kicks, but not sexy and can get clumsy and jerky. More floor moves is better. 4. ALWAYS go with clear heels. they appear invisible almost on camera, giving you the appearance you are floating. 5. ALWAYS use HD recording. some of your videos are HD and some arent. blurry? video is no good and doesnt do you justice. 6. The spread eagle or splits is not an attractive move ever. Dont do it. 7. The sexiest move by far is on the floor on all fours, head down and butt high. DO more of this and dont be afraid to go slow. Do this for a full minute...its very sexy and seductive 8. lastly...try one dance in a miniskirt? or tight tube dress" Point #1 - that's a great opening line, isn't it? Point #2 - ok that's nice... Point #3 - moves on the pole itself aren't sexy... hmmm... and kinda the point of POLE dancing is to use the POLE! Point #4 - while clear heels are cool, I wouldn't say always wear them... she's wearing a white outfit so white heels are fine, I think. Point #5 - while HD is nice, not everyone is going to bother to go that far just for YouTube... Point #6 - WTF? Point #7 - This is where I wonder if he's serious... for a full minute!? Yeah, it's sexy, but I'd get bored after 10 or 15 seconds of it! Point #8 - She's in a bikini, what more do you want!? *sigh* That was amusingly stupid... thought I'd share. 🙂 I didn't know whether to laugh or go bang my head against a wall...

ROFL! 😂 I'm pretty sure this person is serious, but has NO idea what we/she do, why we do it, and how we're trying to come across. I mean, Leigh Ann is pretty sexy and some of her moves have that really sexy feel, but...it's still fitness. It's also clear to me that this person has no sense of perspective! Head down, butt up? That's only sexy to a select few people. Splits moves are actually very sexy to some people. Clear heels? Who cares? See them all the time on video, and they don't really make it look like you're floating...it looks like you're wearing clear heels! And lastly...floor work is nice, but it's not what we're doing. We're doing POLE dancing, so floor work is kind of...like an added bonus. Most of our workout is on the pole. Thanks, though! Made my night 😀

I read this to my boyfriend and he was so stunned he didn't even know what to say. Haha. Can you even imagine a video where the girl just chilled on the floor for a minute with her butt in the air? Worst. Video. Ever. 😂

I just wanted to say: LMAO @ YT comment 😀 😀 😀 and ROFLMAO!! @ Clear heels? Who cares? See them all the time on video, and they don't really make it look like you're floating...it looks like you're wearing clear heels! 😂 😂 😂 ahh, what a great way to start the day 😁

The last two "suggestions" sounds like a guy getting his rocks off on her butt being up in the air!

Weird, creepy, and then nice? That person is on something. LOL ❓

LOL. You can't trust a man who says spread eagle is never sexy. BURN HIM AT THE STAKE.

LOL. You can't trust a man who says spread eagle is never sexy. BURN HIM AT THE STAKE. altho i will say that my bf's favorite position ever is, indeed, the "ass up head down".... that might be TMI but that move seems to make men universally weak at the knees.
Danielle Tillie · 3/5/2010
Yeah guys do like that ass up thing... lol... but this is hilarious. Does this guy not know what a full minute in pole dance is? It feels like forever! If he wants a video of a hot girl with her butt in the air the whole time, well they make porn like that do they not? And I love that he thinks spread eagle isn't sexy at all! My February challenge had a spread eagle moment in it and my guy friends told me that was the most risqué part! This made my morning much much more humorous! 😂
Foxy_Rei · 3/5/2010
I read it to my husband when he got home and he just stood there with a cocked eyebrow while I read the whole thing. 😂 Probably what bothers me the most is that he's treating Leigh Ann like she's an amateur stripper or something... Little does he know that she's one of the biggest names in pole dance! Talk about putting your foot in your mouth! 🤐

This really had me laughing.....Leigh Ann is one of my good friends and my all time favorite pole dancer/pole crush. It's funny that this person took the time to think about what he was going to write and then post multiple comments. It's clear that this person just wants attention for themselves and by trying to bring someone down they think they are making themselves look as if they are the professional and knows what looks good. If he really wanted to see an all floorwork dance with the chick having her butt in the air and face down, there are PLENTY of those kinds of videos on YouTube, just not the POLE DANCE type..... 🙄
DragonPhoenix · 3/6/2010
Oh.My.God.... He makes himself sound like a professional 🙁 1. WTF does he mean? The majority of pole dancers look like sluts? WHATever! I haven't seen a single one so far, that's just a rude comment. I didn't know we could look slutty from the face we have. Shame on us for being pretty! 😀 2. This one is probably the only comment I don't find retarded. 3. I can't believe he made that comment. What he needs to do is see regular dancers that just dance on a floor since he isn't into the whole pole dancing thing. 4. ALWAYS go for clear heels? No way! >.< ....I really like them but come on, variety is the spice of life! Why do just clear heels when you can have pink sparkly ones or black patent leather knee-highs? 🤐 5. People need to realize that HD may not always be an option. I like watching crystal clear videos but I will also watch medium quality aswell, not caring as long as I see the dancing and poling good enough ^^ 6. The "spread eagle"? The only time I ever see that term used is when a guy is referring to a woman on her back with her legs spread. Thats... I don't know how to take it really, I do feel like giving him a good swift kick though for some reason. It's clear at this point that he has no knowledge on pole dancing, else he would have referred to it as the correct move 😉. It's not all about trying to turn men on either >.> 7. I had to roll my eyes on this one because all this guy is interested in is seeing a woman in a certain position he prefers in bed. I think Leigh Ann looks hot when she slides across the floor on her elbows and knees but a whole minute or so doing just that? Of course he would want to see just that because he's likely sitting in front of his monitor looking for things to touch himself silly to. A big fat eye roll at him once again 😂 8. The problem with this suggestion in my opinion is that some pole dancers find it on the difficult side to do all the moves they'd like to while wearing a mini skirt or tube dress unless its not tight, which I'm thinking this guy probably wants since it would be hugging curves and all. This is all good if the girl is doing basic moves or non at all next to a pole and all she's doing is sliding around on the floor with her face against it while her butt is in the air, which is exactly what this guy apparently prefers. He needs to go to porn sites for the type of thing he's looking for, not YouTube. I hope Leigh Ann got a laugh at this, she's too awesome to need suggestions from a horny goof like that guy.

LOL, that comment was written by a totally pervy horndog...trying his best to be sneaky about slipping in a few requests to satisfy his fetishes. Oh well, like they said on Seinfeld, "Not that there's anything wrong with that!" Knowing Leigh Ann and the Be Spun crew, I'm sure they got quite a laugh out of his comment. This guy SERIOUSLY needs to step up his game! Joel
Journey · 3/13/2010
Ok Joel, that "totally pervy horndog" just made my day 😂
