Jillina with arabic band

I am not a Jillina fan..however I think that this is a really good clip of her dancing with an arabic band.

I really enjoyed that clip, her personality really shined through, thank you Taheya for posting!

On a side note, I couldn't help notice how much weight has come off her since this clip! I would imagine this clip is pre-BDSS, shows how physically demanding it must be to do what she does. She has a killer curvy figure in the clip above, love it! She still looks great now too, but you can really see a difference!

I really enjoyed this too. She is quite clearly a talented individual.

Great! I have her first drum solo video and she performs at the end, and she was younger and a lot juicer back then

I've always enjoyed Jillina when she dances solo, her style is quite different and closer to the Arabic ideal especailly to live Arabic musicians.

Yes you can see it is pre-BDSS, there is much less polish on it. I think that she has lost some quality of expression as she matured

I liked this a lot more than her BDSS stuff. Thanks for posting it!

This is NOT pre-BDSS. However she had a period about two years ago where she gained a little weight.

OK, now this is interesting! Did you see the guy money-showering the drummer at about a minute in? I have never seen (or heard) of that before, but that is pretty cool.

Only one problem...all the tips are on the floor now, how are they going to sort out which is which?

Whoa, I've heard of and seen goblet dancing but goblet doumbek dancing?

I love it!

this is one of my favorite clips of jillina, i think she does well with an live arabic band!!!

this video clip takes place in Wahib's restaurant/nightclub here in Alhambra,CA where jillina and the sahlala dancers performs at friday and saturday night,and someone who is showering the money to the drummer is amir sofi.they shower money to the band as well. i think the waiters pick it up after the dance floor is empty so people can dance.
