The guy looks so weird, I never could watch all of his clips. So I don't know whether he's a good dancer or not

This poor thing is not belly dancing. My baby bro said he was dancing like one of those dancing babes in the hip-hop music videos except with bad costuming and thai dance fingers....

His style is weird indeed, but do you wonder about this? It is not more weird than some dance acts of the BDSS:p And if he uses Thai-fingers, so what? The BDSS use stilts:eek: Do you think stilts are more authentic than Thai-fingers ? Nowadays people use all kind of shit when they dance fusions (I've seen dancers using chairs, feathers, flowers, chains, even steel-wings pierced at the back) why shouldn't he?
Well my comment is bitchy, but this is a matter of cause, since I am a BOB:p

Default What's new?

Thai fingers, stilts - what's new? I recently saw a video clip from the early 1900's of a female belly dancer dancing around a chair for a while. That was a bit boring until she proceeded to take the chair between her teeth and dance with it up in the air! :eek: Now try to top that...

I've seen him before... he is all over myspace. And yeah, I kinda feel sorry for him because I don't think he realizes that he is unpleasant to watch....

Hmm, I thought it was a joke at first, but maybe not. He seems to have some confusion re: where his audience is, evinced by his continuing to dance with his face against the sheet hanging up "on location in his bedroom."

He's all over youtube too. I never can continue to watch more than 2 seconds, but I have the idea he indeed moves in front of a webcam in his own bedroom. He also seems to promote the bellydance superstars in his video clips.
