Dear Willow Smith:
Your video’s alright, I guess, but this cockatoo just completely puts your dance moves to shame. Also, chopped ‘n screwed cockatoo squeals would probably sound better and make more sense than the chopping and screwing happening in your hit single. Just sayin’.
After winning choreography competitions all over the world, from Rio de Janeiro to Philadelphia to Sydney, Bailey and Brian Birdie are bringing their high-flying dangerous dance on tour all over America. Combining the sensuality of tango and flamenco with the brazen boldness of hip-hop and the esoteric fluidity of interpretive dance, this feathered troupe’s trademark routine is guaranteed to keep you on your talons!

… but Elliott the Elephant also draws influence from neo-classical visionaries Philip Glass and Kashiwa Daisuke, along with the motorik dance music of Kraftwerk and Neu!
This little ditty is his attempt at synthesizing all of his musical loves into one cohesive piece. I’d say he did a pretty good job, don’t you think?

“Shadow dancing is my thing. It incorporates breakdancing, freestyle, a bit of gymnastics, and even some yoga, and it all takes place at dusk. It’s a magical, almost sensual, type of dance that drives the ladies wild. I transform myself into whoever I want to be. It’s truly a groundbreaking form of dance created by my mentor, Branch.”

This mantis has a real obsession with modeling. You wouldn’t think it just by looking at him, but Supermodel (you better work) is his favorite song of all time. He plays it over and over on his tiny boombox as he struts up and down tree branches pretending they’re a catwalk. It’s absurd, really. And I think he knows that, but he just doesn’t care. He’s a true diva.

Further Proof That Whales Are Cooler Than You
With so many great animals acting like animals this week, we here at ALA headquarters figured you all could use a recap! Enjoy your Sunday, and enjoy seeing these crazy animals one more time!
Video: Our Favorite Kind Of Music? Otter Pop.
Francisco has never been much of a rap fan, but he’s willing to get a little hyphy every now and then on the dance table. Especially if it means getting a good ol’ fashioned finger massage out of the deal.

I think I speak for all of us party otters when I say that nothing beats a day of dancing at the discotheque to a medley of top 40 otter pop classics.
Madonna’s “Like An Urchin?” A real booty-shaker! Curtis Mayfield’s “Move On Up (The River)” is also a guaranteed crowd pleaser. And you know, we all go crazy over anything by Otter Redding.

“I like that Boom Boom Pow / those cockatiels jackin’ my style / they try to copy my flutter / I’m learning new moves now.”
Oh yeah, I feel a hit single coming on. Billboard Top 40, here we come!

Some animals just like to dance. After a long week of foraging, grooming and nesting it’s time to hit the club and show the ladies what you’re made of. The Saturday Night Lemur is a Club Madagascar mainstay. Every Saturday, he performs to the hit Bee Gees song and shakes what his mama gave him. It’s a good time, if you can get past security to get inside. It’s pretty exclusive.
