This Is It - featuring Pole Dancing Specialists!

drkfaery started this discussion · 10/29/2009

Hi all! So I saw the Michael Jackson documentary today and was really impressed with it. Great dancing, singing a fun look into the making of what would have been an amazing comeback show. The review mentioned the pole dancers that were going to be involved. Unfortunately it was only shown for a half second in the film. http://www.latimes.com/entertainment/news/music/la-et-this-is-it28-2009oct28,0,4507172.story?track=rss

The pole specialist is Danielle. I have seen her perform in Vegas. I believe she recently won Polapalooza. Can you imagine pole dancing next to MJ?

Yes, Denielle Rueda-Watts is probably one of the best pole dancers I've seen! I so wish there was more material available with her on youtube or whatnot. She's a great inspiration: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pp09Bkh4ZVs

I loved that documentary and when I heard that there were going to be poledancers in his show I was saddended even more about the fact that it would never happen. Pole dancing in the world tour of biggest artist of all time? Do you know how many people would be googling pole dance after that? and signing up for classes and buying poles for home. I think it definitely would have helped bring pole mainstream.

Here is a great video of Danielle's performance. It is high definition, so takes a while to load. 😉 http://www.cirqueartist.com/Pole_Act_Full/Danielle_Pole_Act.mp4

I love her dancing! I've never seen her before. She has such smooth transistions and she's so flexible--and I LOVE how she really synchs her moves to match the music.
