Random Observation: Oprah’s Cha-Cha Slide / Mary J. Blige “Just Fine” Line Dance
May 14th, 2008 by PG Chic
So I was up late catching up on my growing list of Tivo’d shows to watch when I encountered Oprah’s Cha-Cha Slide from Monday’s show with the little nine-year old boy from the McDonald’s Happy Meal commerical. Ladies and gentlemen, it took eight years but mainstream America has just been introduced this lame line dance. (OK, I admit I am usually all up in the mix at weddings…electric slide, cha cha slide, booty call, R. Kelly’s “Step in the Name of Love”).
Speaking of line dances, have you seen the latest line dance to Mary J. Blige’s song “Just Fine”? Learn the steps (after wasting 4 minutes of your life watching the instructor do it first) on YouTube - Just Fine Mary J Blige Dance Instruction. While wasting those 4 minutes, the geek that I am counted…this is basically a 128 count dance, which is absurd to me. I can’t remember my cell phone number, how am I supposed to remember this?! I miss the good old days of the 16 count electric slide.
