What do you think of this video? The look? The choreography? The glove? The dancers? The song? Beyonce?
There must be hundreds of parodies of this video on youtube. SNL did one of their own with Justin Timberlake and a couple of the male cast members.

I LOVE the Choreography and the dancers. There's lots of, and I hate this word but it fits, Sassisness, and hi energy here. I don't normally like this kind of music but when it's catchy it's catchy so I'd say it's pretty cool. The glove is goofy but Beyonce's booty more than makes up for it.
I saw a piece on one of the entertainment shows and the guy who Choreographed it was inspired by this youtube video from a 60's TV show with Gwen Verdon. The dancing was choreographed by Bob Fosse. This 60's video was remixed with the rap song "Walk it out" and that's how it got popular over the last year or so.
I think all this shows how ahead of his time and modern Bob Fosse's choreography was.
Here's the original...I spoiler'd it to keep the post small.

Here's the "Walk it Out" parody that's been posted before...I spoiler'd it to keep the post small.

Here's a video with a Beyonce video and Gwen Verdon/Bob Fosse choreography video comparison:
