I love how she acts here. It’s like she’s transforming with every move. Those short, sharp movements are really beautiful to me. It’s like she’s being taken over.

You gotta appreciate a performer who uses 100% of their body in an act. Even the eyes are involved in constructing the pose and energy!

@@theblinkage6559 absolutely. It’s like she’s some sort of reptile here. The way her feet act like they are alive on their own is something a lot of contortionists do, and I love it so much.
