BOB FOSSE & GWEN VERDON

I am a huge Bob Fosse fan. I was fortunate to find the above video clip of Bob's wife Gwen doing some classic "Fosse" choreography and I couldn't resist posting it. You've gotta love these ladies and how they move and groove to the music. They've got these bumps and pelvic thrusts down to a science and they're not afraid to use them. Talk about Lethal Weapons.....I am not mad at them! This kind of dance was so liberating and free, and I just love the whimsical (you know me and whimsy) head and body correlations. It's "coolness" at its finest.

In a previous post on Beyonce's "Get Me Bodied" music video, I stated how the choreography was from "Sweet Charity" and how much I loved that movie.

Well, I posted another video clip showing how Beyonce has again used Fosse moves in her "Single Ladies" music video. The video shows Beyonce and Gwen side by side doing these Fosse moves. I guess Beyonce's choreographer is a big fan too 'cause they sure keep (stealing) using them.
