Richy Jackson Dr.Phil

[@RevWarRev]

She'd be a fun dancer to watch at a club, but to be a professional in the middle of other dancers? She just doesn't have 'it'. If you go back and watch Jennifer Lopez in 'Living Color' she shines doing the choreo perfectly. When you're an ensemble dancer you don't add your own flavor - the ONLY flavor is the choreographer's. Wonder if seh wised up?

[@kaedesghost3123]

You can, but you have to be a dancer first. Even the main performer is not on stage alone, they share it with their dancers. But people work together to make a cohesive performance, besides physical skills you have to have that skill of working with a partner or just, with people. With people in general tbh. Its a cohesive performance, and dancers sometimes add their own to it, also because well, everyone does the same choreo differently, steps and rhythm and vibe is the same, but, they dont look like identical mmd models in an mmd video, because thats the same dancing person cgi-ed many times, and not several dancing people. They gotta be in sync with everyone else in the team, and freestyle if that is a part of the stage choreography. Everyone works together. Even if she could actually dance, she wouldnt be able to sync and work together with everyone else.

[@chasityprice9128]

She's good, but not good enough to make it in a lady Gaga video. Just saying

[@lamariposa5558]

She's actually horrible. She learned the choreography because she got one-to-one instructions from a professional dancer which couldn't be further from how the real dance business works. But have you seen her freestyle moves? No offense, but that's how people dance in the club when they had one too many, no professional would take this seriously.

[@bellerain381]

Sarah Joy is a good dancer. Her problem is that she sees herself as the world's best dancer rather than as a good dancer who can improve.

Yes exactly! I’d use the saying “has talent but needs direction.”

[@denisenoemyschizotypaldiso3755]

@@bellerain381 A good and realistic view.

[@DisWldFrk90]

Totally agree! She refuses to take steps to improve and live up to her full potential because she thinks she already has it. Somebody should inform her that professional performers often continue to take classes even after making it big as they don't want to fall behind. Not to mention even most prodigies took classes. Shirley Temple for example was a tap prodigy, but she didn't come out like that. She had to take classes to know what the choreographers wanted her to do.

[@miavaldez6624]

Okay, coming from a dancer who trained for 14 years. She has very high potential but definitely needs training in ballet and technique classes. There will be a room full of dancers that have trained for a long time. There are professional dancers that would out dance her. But hey if she wants to be pro she can put in time for training.

I don't think getting her training would be a good idea at this point.

[@KittyCrystal]

To be fair, a lot of that has to do with the fact Gaga permanently destroyed her hip and it really affects how she moves now. Since he's known her a long time, he could be subconsciously (or deliberately) adjusting routines since she's always gung-ho to be in the thick of them and needs compassion in the moves.
