Most dancers who have trained all of their lives are really good . Why would Patrick Swayze be any different . He is not some super dancer and nobody else can achieve it .

[@mermaid_at_heart213]

My family loved him not only because he was a great dancer and actor, but because he had a farm with his wife and they had Arabian horses. We had a couple boarded at a stable for a short time, but had to give them up. They've always been special to me, though I love all horses.

[@BCFBreakfastClubFan]

I'm so glad you gave Mr. Walken the props he deserved for "Weapon of Choice". I was never a huge fan of his until I saw that video, and I was instantly obsessed. You can't help but love a guy who can laugh at himself, and the self-deprecating humor, added to his obvious skill-is just _hot!_ Probably one of my favorite music video moments ever.

[@Hollylivengood]

He had a career in dancing long before he thought of acting.

[@BCFBreakfastClubFan]

@@Hollylivengood Yes, he did, but I-amongst many-never knew of his dancing skills until that video came out.

[@Leadfootlisa]

Pennies from Heaven 😍

[@XXSkunkWorksXX]

Walken is an amazing actor - utterly mesmerizing in 'The Deer Hunter', 'King of New York' and 'Pulp Fiction' amongst many others. Along with Harvey Keitel and Gene Hackman, one of the finest actors of the last fifty years. To learn he was an EVEN better dancer than actor after first seeing Fatboy Slim's 'Weapon of Choice' was an eye opener. But this list is nothing without Matthew Broderick (Ferris Bueller's Day Off), Dan Ackroyd (The Blues Brothers) and Tom Cruise (Pour Some Sugar on Me)..... IMHO of course :)

[@xXHelena87Xx]

Christopher Walken is my favourite actor! ❤

Alfonso Ribeiro was on Broadway in "The Tap dance kid" before he moved to television starring in the classic sitcom "Silverspoon" with Rick Schroeder🕺

[@alaly1027]

I am actually confused that he's on this list. He started his career on Broadway... dancing. If there's anything ppl should know about him is that he can dance.

[@gullinvarg]

I was just coming here to mention the Pepsi commercial, but ya beat me to it. 😁😉

[@Gloria-ro4vn]

At 8 he was on Broadway in The Tap Dance Kid. I remember him on Silver Spoons where he danced.

[@AlexRising_]

6:45 idk if anyone has actually _TRIED_ to do The Carlton, but it actually requires a good amount of coordination and practice 😂

[@jsw11984]

Absolutely, you could see while his professional partner had the moves she was way more stiff in the movements, Alfonso looked so much more natural and comfortable doing them. When a professional dancer struggles you know it’s hard to do

[@PiazzaGurl]

Yes. I’ve seen some people look really stiff. His partner on DWTS was stiff.

[@juliec5309]

Christopher walkens dance is just so iconic. 😂

[@soniahagenberger5837]

I was really not surprised by any of these actors I did love Tom Holland. BUT CHRISTOPHER WALKENS Fat Boy Slim, is so way above any of these. Because other than Pennies From Heaven and Hairspray, all his roles have never even come close to being a dancer. Yeah, the guy who blows his brains out in The Deer Hunter...nah, not a dancer, ever, nope.

[@virginiabaker4471]

Christopher Walken is a trained dancer!

[@originalcosmicgirl]

Didn't he, like Alfonzo Ribeiro, get his start on Broadway? "Weapon of Choice" is one of my favorite music videos ever. Also one of my favorite Fatboy Slim songs.

[@Firegen1]

Yeah a lot of this just sounds like Ms Mojo isn't um... well versed in theatre.... Most of these people are trained. It comes as a pretty requisite for most drama schools in the UK. So any British ones should be the least surprising. I remember they asked me before I looked into Rose Bruford and Mountain view....

[@Hollylivengood]

@@originalcosmicgirl I saw an interview with Walken where he said that he got his start as a review dancer. No shame there, those guys are amazing dancers. But then he did go to Broadway.

[@D415h4n34]

Baby Tom Holland is precious💖

[@ChrissieSM]

Gregory Hines. Simply the BEST!

[@cainealexander-mccord2805]

"White Nights" was a three hour film. All I remember is his dance with Baryshnikov. It's fine-that was the only reason I turned up in the first place.

[@eisaacs7759]

Showing my age, I knew Alfonso Ribeiro could dance from his role on thev80s sitcom Silver Spoons. His character on that show just loooved Michael Jackson, and usually wore a red leather jacket like MJ in the Thriller days - and danced in it. And it should not be a surprise Kate Hudson can dance since her mother is Goldie Hawn, who also started as a dancer.

[@positivelysimful1283]

Yes, he was also in the musical The Tap Dance Kid and danced w/MJ in the Pepsi commercials even before that. I knew him for dancing before anything else.

I loved Alfonso on Dancing with the Stars.

And there he is - Christopher Walken, and... Christopher Dancin' 😉

Check out tough guy James Cagney in Yankee Doodle Dandy (1942).

[@nightswimmer99]

Charles Durning looked like Cagney dancing in "Best Little Wh*rehouse in Texas". A surprise for sure.

Christia Aguilera in Burlesque was awesome. Seems like she would have made this list

Alfonzo Ribiero has been dancing for a while. When he was a child actor on Silver Spoons among other things, he was known for dancing. Even was picked to dance with Michael in a Pepsi commercial.

Jenna Ortega's Wednesday dance is so iconic, and she apparently filmed it when she was sick with Covid. I hope that they'll have her dance in the upcoming season.

[@DateMike22]

That's crazy didn't know that 😲😳😱.

[@margolangley4472]

Wasn't her show canceled? Her "self-creation" apparently wasn't iconic enough...

[@JudyTullos]

She was told to come up with a dance early in the production. She told the funny story, that (the director?), said to her, ‘I know you’ve probably been working on the dance’..- ah- ! Very close to the scene, she did give it thought! Wow, she more than succeeded with a signature “Wednesday “.

@@margolangley4472 Um no....S2 drops at the end of this year or the beginning of next.

[@Clarintheclarineter]

I would like to take this moment to appreciate all the theater kids, everywhere :D

Daniel Radcliffe in Miracle Workers. Absolutely brilliant.

[@erikafusco9063]

Don't forget him in "How to Succeed"! He worked his butt off for that!!!! Please Watch Mojo...Give him at least some credit!

[@thereallg4587]

*Jenna Ortega’s dance alright but how ppl didn’t know Tom was a good dancer because of his Broadway says is crazy.*

[@tararitz7005]

Probably because the majority of us pay absolutely no attention to Broadway lol

[@jamiethal1319]

Days, not says.

[@evemercier3460]

Well KZbin is international… Broadway isn’t so unless you’re able to see a Broadway show, you won’t know!

[@chelseacanales8763]

Napoleon Dynamite dance scene is the best thing ever in the movie
