Stephon Watt

+FanSpazzManiac that doesn't matter.....if you are a good dancer4it should come off in video or live. ....

Rico is Erico에릭코

8y↑6

+Amore France Actually in some cases it does matter. Your judging her dancing ability off of one video that contains a dance where she doesn't have to try hard because the dance technically isn't hard to do. You have the right to your opinion but at the end of the day she still singing and dancing for millions of people. There are more than a few people who think she can dance and you don't have to be one of them. Have a good day.
