Gimmicks that annoy me mildly ( I am really too lazy to get real worked up over anything) might be called "boobs on a string" or "the basketball hip." This is where the dancers pretends to raise and lower her chest via an invisible string, or to push her hip down and up with the flat of her hand, like she's bouncing a ball. What bugs me about it is that it is such a cliche- ho hum, think of something new.

(Oh, gosh, I have such a trivial mind- I just got a mental picture of a dancer doing a chest lift that doesn't stop it's upward movement. In desperation, she puts both hands on her breasts, trying to stop their helium balloon-like rise... if it was a horror movie, she'd eventually be smothered with her own cleavage.)
