Rocco's Pop Revolution: Seen through the eyes of someone living it

Posts Tagged ‘dance

I’m going to try to spread that rumor. See what happens. Do you think anyone would believe it??

I’ll say that Oprah said it. Everyone believes Oprah.

Do you think his eyelashes are fake?? Is that a rumor I should spread too??

Probably not, him dating Paula is more believable.

Good times.

I always felt kinda ‘meh’ about Mumford & Sons…. until last night.

I’m ready to run out and go buy their albums and go to their shows. Are they on tour?? I need to do some serious googling on these fellas.

They had one of my favorite performances of the night. They just go out their double bass and banjo and jammed.

It was perfection.

Me and Claire pumped up the volume and sat in awe.

I didn’t even yearn for choreographed  dance moves… and I usually need some dance moves to engage my full attention.

Good job.

This is the first thing I saw this morning and I’ve never smiled so big.

Amanda_Marie13 sent this to  me via Twitter and I thank her for that. It’s the greatest news. Seriously.

Play this:

And look at these 3 men whilst shaking your computer screen to make it look like they are dancing/ whipping their hair.

Did you do that??? Good. You were basically out with Leo DiCaprio, Chace Crawford, and Sebastian Stan last night.

Willow Smith’s “Whip My Hair” came on and Leo was filled with joy and danced a long to the music.

I would give my left arm to see this (and don’t think that’s dramatic… I’m a righty, so no biggie)

I’m usually not into candid video of celebrities because I feel awful watching it, but if this could be on tape, I would never ask Oprah for another thing.

I’m glad me and Leo DiCaprio finally settled on our wedding song.

Even though I’m still heart-broken over the lack of Leonardo DiCapario… *sniff*… it’s still hard for me to talk about… the Academy Awards look kinda fun this year.

Thanks to James Franco and Anne Hathaway.

The Academy Awards will air February 27th on ABC.

I normally would laugh at a man whose 6’4 and singing and dancing with puppets… but because I have a massive, MASSIVE crush on Jason Segel… I let these things slide. (but this is something that would totally be the cause for our impending break up. I mean when you choose a puppet over me… there is going to be some issues that a couple’s therapist can’t fix)

 

what do you mean you're leaving me and Teddy?? I'll go see the therapist again... but only if I can bring Teddy!

 

I never really was a muppet kid… I think I missed that craze within a few years… but if Jason Segel is going to be involved in this, I’m there!!

Here are some pictures of him and the adorable Amy Adams twirling around in a dance sequence for The Muppets. I instantly hate Amy Adams. I want to be twirled around by Jason Segel.

let's make Rocco jealous!

is she watching?? is she watching???

I really hope I can convince one of my friends to go see this with me. I’ll look like such a weirdo by myself, at The Muppets, laughing at everything Jason Segel says and flirting with him through the big screen.

Oh and I have no idea when this is actually being released. I think like Thanksgiving 2011. Oh my Oprah… this is how I’m going to be spending my Thanksgiving; in a darkened theater with Jason Segel and puppets.

Actually, I’ve never wanted to do anything more. It sounds like the scene for romance.

Wow… I woke up to quite the gem this AM.

Sweet4DeWyze (who is clearly a Lee D fan) sent me possibly the greatest video I have ever seen. I’m pretty sure I will see nothing greater for at least 5-7 days.

And since this video is so great…. I’m going to make it a competition!! I love competitions… and I’m obviously going to throw Lee bear into the ring. Let’s see what happens.

 

Oh please no more dance competitions

 

Yes Lee D… there are going to be plenty more…. so suit up and warm up.. because you’re playing! This is what you get for not giving me any new material…BTW I signed you up for next season of America’s Best Dance Crew. Mario Lopez is so psyched to meet you, he’s been doing high kicks since I told him.

YAY LEE BEAR!

So, get a group of people together STAT.

 

I have a crew right here!! Check us out!

 

Okay… great. Put your arm down, you’re the only one doing it, and tell Tim Urban to stop smiling like a pageant queen… Mario Lopez will dock you points for that.

Anyway…. back to today’s competition.

Here is the actual video that inspired all this, warms my heart, and is the greatest thing. EVER.

I mean wow…. WOW! First off, that song is wonderful… it always makes me laugh. Two, he looks like a frog… when he was hopping… I thought he was a frog, a really gay frog. Three, I should probably start doing yoga again because I’m just not that limber. Four, did he win?? He better have won that whole competition, because if he didn’t, I may just start hating the French…. that is talent.

Ok… now our second dancer is Lee bear!! Naturally, you would think the bear automatically wins… but not so fast. We have to see the moves. (I’m really into placing Lee D. into a dance competition lately…. I have no idea why?? Oh yeah I remember…. he hasn’t done anything in weeks!)

Once again… I’m not savvy and can’t figure out how to post the video… but click on the picture below to see the video. TatisR made this awesome video, so send her money via Twitter. Seriously, do that.

Now, we already established that he is an AWE-SOME dancer. And that video just enhances his skills…he even changes outfits very quickly, which is super impressive. He makes that song sound even better.

And for our final competitor….. SQUIRRELS! Actually, they’re lemurs, but either way this is a battle of the species!

These guys have strength in  numbers… plus they really get down. This is some straight up hip shaking happening. Lee can point and wink all he wants… he’s just not shaking his ass the way these little guys are. Plus, I’m pretty sure the king squirrel guy did the robot… how do you top that??

This is a tough competition… and I have to decide for myself…. dancing baby is still sleeping. Shhhh.

I know Lee bear won last time around when it was just him vs the squirrels, but now we have the extremely limber, and life-like frog man…. who’s the winner???

*drruuuuum rooooolll*

FROG MAN WINS!!!!

Congrats Frog Man… you won!! I mean you were tough competition… no one can pull off a neon leotard like you can.

 

What do you mean I lost??? I never lose with you Rocco... that's the way this works!

Well… you can’t win everything Lee bear. I teach life lessons as well.

Hmmmm frog legs...

 

*munch munch * *yom yom yom*

 

 

Oh my Oprah!!… Lee bear just ate the frog man. Well, I guess by default… Lee bear wins???

 

Yup... I ate that fruity frog!

I guess that means I won??? Right?? hahahhah

 

Uhhhhh yeah. I guess it does…. NEW WINNER!! LEE BEAR!!!

 

I'M UP!! What did I miss?? *why is it so hard for you to believe... that every little thing is gonna be ok, as long as you stay here* LOVE THIS SONG LEE BEAR! *shake shake*

 

Lee bear just ate the Frog Man. Go back to bed dancing baby.

Finally!! A legit Lee bear contest. A legit contest where only my vote counts. Oh, how I’ve missed these.

And plus it’s a dancing contest. Who doesn’t love a dance off??

TatisR sent me a video she made of Lee dancing. And never again will I make fun of fan videos. This one is genius and hilarious.

Since, I have no idea how to post a video because frogs are involved with this video, as opposed to YouTube. Click on this other dancing picture of Lee D. to get to the real video that is in the contest. Trust me it’s worth it.

I like to move it, move it. You like to... MOVE IT!

Who doesn’t love some old school jock jams?!?! I use to dance around to that getting ready for some middle school dances. Yeah, that’s right…. I prepped for middle school dances by making sure nothing was stuck in my braces and by practicing my dance moves. And I’m sure you did to.

And now for Lee bear’s competition…. SQUIRRELS!! Or whatever the hell they are. Madagascar is a hilarious movie and that dance scene is the best part, because those little ferret things are perfect.

I actually have to decide on this one, because even out of context those squirrel-esque animals are funny and very talented.

Hey Squirrel!!

Hey Bear Heeeey!

 

This is quite the battle we have on our hands!! Who wins?!?!?!?

 

*Druuuuuum roooollllll*

LEE BEAR!

Shocking.

This dance off included some of my favorite things… jock jams, different animal species, and making Lee win everything.

(Dude needs to get back to work because I’m starting to make up stupid shit. I’m losing people here.)

Since the end of the year is near, it is that time when people start making lists. Countdowns happen, and “(insert word here) of the year” things happen. At least this occurs on television and in my head, so that makes it super important.

And since I just want an excuse to post this video of Finn from Glee singing “Just The Way You Are” to Rachel Berry, him Mom, and/or Kurt this is going to be my “couple of the year” post. Even though they are step-brothers and not a couple…. but you get the idea. The word couple is metaphoric.

You’re touched by that dance between the two aren’t you. Don’t worry my heart swelled with love as well.

…. and whether it is due to the Nicholas Sparks’ storyline or Zac Efron’s bad acting I do not know yet.

Let me take a step back and explain.

Mr.  Zac “I am rebelling against my singing/dancing background, and making no money from it because people only appreciate me when I am doing said singing/dancing, but I need to do this to prove that I can act (and because Rocco hates my singing/dancing. And swoop)” Efron is filming a new non-musical flick, The Lucky One. And it is a Nicholas Sparks novel.

We know a few things just from the above facts. (And it is ALL facts. Trust me.):

1) It is set in the South.
2) He is going to fall in love with a girl and lives will be changed. Forever.
3) A Son/Father or Son/Mother relationships will be explored.
4) Someone is going to lose their life.

Are you sobbing yet?? I can feel the lump in my throat.

And let me say that I am thankful there will be no sudden song and dance number in this… Sparks’ novels are too sad for singing. You can’t sing at the death of your girlfriend AND Father in a super tragic boating accident along the coast  of North Carolina. It’s just inappropriate. (I’m pretty sure that doesn’t happen, so don’t worry I didn’t ruin the movie for you)

Looking forward to this one Efron.

Oh and you’re looking superb these days.

No! I will not show you how to plie

Ugh. HSM 1, 2, AND 3 has ruined my life.
