“Show Me Ya Moves” Dance Challenge (No Talent Required)

by Jenny McCoy on February 7, 2010

From time to time, a pop culture phenomenon sweeps in,  funnels mankind’s collective interest and darts away with millions of YouTube views, a Today Show interview and a future spent hopping between the C-list reality television circuit and rehab facilities.

On an unrelated note, I announced a dance challenge over the weekend.

If you are currently storing urine in your bladder or coffee in your mouth, I advise you to relieve yourself of these liquid dangers prior to viewing my dance challenge announcement.

I highly recommend you participate in the “Show Me Ya Moves” Dance Challenge if you:

  • plan to pursue a political career
  • have children who will one day be teenagers
  • are named Ellen Degeneres
  • know someone (IRL) named Ellen Degeneres
  • are still reading this. You’re wasting time. Get a camera. Play a tune. No talent required.

I might give away a free t-shirt to all participants. Or maybe all participants will automatically be eligible to win a date with Boy Toy Brad? I haven’t decided yet, but I’m open to suggestions.

Join the handful of people I have almost successfully harassed into participating:

Matt
Srini
Kelly
The Bloggess
Jamie
Rich
You.

Leave a comment below with your name and the song you plan to assault.

    Funniest fucking thing I've ever seen.

    I will have to find a video camera but I am tote in. If I'm not too late.
  • Haha, thanks Whitney! You're not too late.. in fact.. I'm still waiting for the first participant.. start busting some moves!
  • Done. In. All that. I don't think you're ready for this jelly! (<--I made that line up. Seriously. Anything you hear to the contrary is BS.)
  • Yesssss. You know, I'm glad you stopped by. I'm pretty sure I tried to subscribe to your site one day but it was blocked at work, haha. Something about the URL?
  • Nope, no way. Definitely not the URL. :)

    So i couldn't relieve myself of urine bc im pregnant and that is literally impossible since i should be constantly sitting on the toilet. Although i won't be participating (hence being pregnant and because im too lazy/fat/too urine filled) I just wanted to say thank you for making my night, I literally lol'ed.
  • Awesome Shayla! I love seeing the new pics of your little one. She is adorable.. and can't wait to see little boy Spicer. Maybe after his arrival you can participate! haha
  • Jenny, I'm Megan. Nice to meet you :) Many, many times I've told people if we all wake up and do a little dance, the world would be a much happier place! So count me in. I'll do some dancing this weekend :)
  • Hey Megan, thanks for stopping by! I so agree. I'd like this to become a regular thing and I'm looking forward to seeing some fine weekend dancing!
  • TheNorm41
    Oh yeah, it's on. Now I just need to decide on a song...awesome idea!
  • Awesome! Looking forward to it... lemme know if you need any musical suggestions. I'm highly unqualified to give them.
  • I'M ON IT.

    I'll get back to you on the song.
  • Yesssss. I'm waiting in eager anticipation.
  • Everyone knows I'm far too shy to participate in something like this.

    OR, it could just be that it's been three days since I showered.

    So basically, what I'm saying is if you sponge bathe me, I'm in.
  • Hmm.. what if I send a midget? Oh shit, am I going to get hate mail from the producers of that TLC show now? But seriously, I'm shy too.. that's why I filmed this alone in my living room.. and then proceeded to broadcast it to the world on the Internet. Not everything can make sense all the time.. Come onnnnnn!
  • I just spit tea all over my laptop (despite your warning).

    LOVE LOVE LOVE IT!!!!1!!!1
  • Ah! Hope it didn't fry, but I'm glad you enjoyed it! So you're going to make a video right? Pleaseeeee! haha
  • You already know I love this Jen :) I think I'm gonna have to do it...
  • Yesss Tim. I'm excited.. any ideas on which song?
  • You can go ahead and add me to the list of people participating - I just need to acquire a decent cam (used to have one before getting canned from the nine to five). But it's coming, and will be a regular thing for us (and everyone else involved). I love it.
  • Thanks for the RT earlier Matt. I can't wait to see you video and I hope more will follow your lead! I def. agree that this should be a regular thing.
