Choreography Behind the Scenes Look at "Beauty and a Beat"

Loading the player...

 

I don't know about you guys, but my favorite part of Justin Bieber's new music video for "Beauty and a Beat" featuring Nicki Minaj was the DANCING!  Here, DS2DIO gives a behind the scenes look including an interview with Jon M. Chu, head choreographer Nick DeMoura, and assistant choreographers Tucker Barkley and Kevin Maher.  They talk about the obstacles of dancing in water, the "weight" on Justin's shoulders, and rehearsal time constraints (one and a half days?! what!). Look out for some backup dancers whom Gowhere has blogged about before including Ian Eastwood and Brian Puspos of Mos Wanted Crew, Ade Willis (Rabbit Run video), and (a personal favorite) Jillian Meyers. I'm definitely impressed with how this video turned out by the self direction of Justin Bieber, but not shocked at how awesome the dancing is. The whole video is below, and refer to 1:40 for a spotlight (oh, hey Brian, Ian, and Ade) then again at 1:50 for when Justin shows that he can keep up (Ade and Jillian are to his right). Okay, enough obsessing over, but even if you're not a Jbiebs fan, I say appreciate the dancing! :)
