[@veeglover]

I remember those commercials. 👍🏾

[@ttttia4734]

You hardly showed their dancing.

[@sheilagravely5621]

I loved Jennifer Garner in the thriller dance.❤❤❤❤❤

[@sheilagravely5621]

I love the Carlton too! I always bust a mood❤❤❤😅😊

Is that Mark Ruffalo at time stamp 3:33 dancing to Thriller?

[@nicholajayne]

Yes it is

[@user-qc7km4ol8x]

Niiiice - Best one is Steve Martin - Classic!!

[@alialshaghdali5387]

You missed a lot. John Travolta, Toby Maguaier in spiderman, Joaquin phoenix in the Joker and Tom Cruise as Les Grossman in Tropic Thunder.

[@rlwebbrhondaw769]

Thanks!

[@MsMojo]

Thank you for supporting our channel!

[@Robertahausen]

no one was smoother than Swayze...and who doesn't love the Carlton!!

[@HonaMalta]

Thank you ❤❤❤

[@marikka9347]

You really missed some background on Swayze. His wife (1975-2009 [his death]), Lisa Niemi met him when she was a 14 year old student of Patrick Swayze's mom's dance studio. They married 5 years later and moved to New York to further their dance careers. She was an actor, writer, choreographer, and director as well. They fostered their love of dance together through all their years. Look up Lisa Niemi and Patrick Swayze dancing. It is mesmerizing.

[@kirareedagain7475]

Great list. #1 was a given.. love that video

[@rochellemcburnie1]

Patrick Swazye was a trained dancer

[@MsDisneylandlover]

Rip Pat ❤😊

[@SJC49]

And his wife was an amazing dancer as well.

[@connyisland3471]

As Catherine Zeta Jones, Alfonso Rebeiro, Christopher Walken and a few more.

[@mevolutionarybyliz]

They said that in the video

[@pauladouglas9891]

He attended his mother's dance studio.

[@JenniferMacCrindle-zx8db]

Honestly, I like them all.

[@madiantin]

I was a teen when Walken danced onto our screens and it was a MOMENT!! *Everyone* was like AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH! It was SO GOOD. But I have to tell you, Tom Holland's "Umbrella" will be stuck in my mind til the end of time. Absolutely amazing.

[@davejohnston2766]

Joseph Gordon is also one hell of a singer

[@robinsmith5442]

Brendan Fraser swing dancing in Blast From the Past was pretty good

[@CK8smallville]

I love that scene!

[@tatertotsRgood]

@@CK8smallville Oh, yes I forgot and I loved that one too.

[@brendabernstein286]

Abso-freakin-lutely. He is awesome in any role

[@sockygaldamez9492]

Oh yeah he really killed it in that scene 😊❤️

[@lindak8664]

Blast from the past! 🫰🏼 I was going crazy trying to think of the name of that movie the other day!

[@Paulzor923]

I really enjoyed this video 👍😊

[@D415h4n34]

Baby Tom Holland is precious💖

[@marshahinson6930]

👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

[@ChrissieSM]

Tom Hiddleston attended the GSA, where you need to pass 5 different dances and other skills before getting accepted. So no surprise he can dance.

[@JDMimeTHEFIRST]

Can he?

[@ladyace5446]

​@@catherinehpn3613 You thinking tom holland studied ballet i think

[@Wheredoesabrokenheartgoes]

I think you meant Tom Holland they are both brits

[@Kevin-wr9um]

That Oscar spot with Theron and Tatum was really impressive. Channing Tatum had to do a lift and twirl with Theron and she's not a small woman (compared to most dancer). And Hugh Jackman turns into a uge Dancing Queen when the music starts!

[@AWatts]

Faison dancing in Scrubs will always make me smile.

[@kellyalves756]

Every time I hear that song I see that footwork. 😁

[@dap9387]

LOVED CVJ in Zorro - best actress of ALL!!!

[@nelleo2507]

No Kevin Bacon???? Questionable 🤨

[@brendahyslop6770]

Absolutely agree!

[@sarahosborne7477]

Yes why isnt he on this list.

[@lizwhittleston5963]

Kevin is great dancer

[@jl535]

I have his skate disco book.

[@kittygumdrop7442]

That's like being surprised that John Travolta can dance. They shouldn't be on a list like this. Bacon and Travolta made their names in movies that were based around dancing.

[@AzaleaLala]

OMG it's Kino! This was fun. Tom Hiddleston should definitely be further up on that list though. I wish there were more dancing movies and musicals that aren't Disney.

[@jenerhart7025]

*Some* of us are old enough to remember Alfonzo Ribero dancing with Michael Jackson in a Pepsi commercial.

[@amykell5687]

EXACTLY!!! I can still see the red jacket.

[@Whipslinger1]

But are you old enough to remember his start on Broadway in the Tap Dance Kid prior to that?? It wss a wonderful play and he was so talented as the young lead.

[@QueenOfTheNorth65]

@@Whipslinger1I came here to say THIS.

[@lindahendricks9965]

I’m old enough to remember him starring in the Tap Dance Kid. He’s always been a dancer.

[@BlackDoveNYC]

He was also 'The Tapdance Kid' on Broadway.

[@bejoyful753]

She killed that at 7:05! 🔥

[@aluette1]

Mads Mikkelsen dancing in ANOTHER ROUND!🥰🥰🥰

[@hellokitty9]

Amazing Walken and craig. Who knew

[@MaryAnn-cd5to]

missed Mads Mikkelsen - played TV's Hannibal, bad guy in Casino Royale with Daniel Craig's 007, and the bad guy in Dr. Strange. Mads is a dancer.

[@101gitfit]

Hahahaha! Love these dance moves. I’ve been known to bust out in dance in a grocery store isle…and then my then husband would slink away to another part of the grocery store. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@jamieennen964]

World lost a wonderful dancer and a beautiful human being inside and out the day Patrick Swayze passed away. 🥺😢😭 The Documentary I Am Patrick Swayze was so unbelievably good!! I was in tears by the end of it!

[@boayden9971]

❤😢

[@Heavens-Humanaterian-Army]

He isn't dead he is just in hideing like many other celebs

[@sheilagravely5621]

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤😢

[@JulieGreen-e8b]

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.

[@CathyArthur-m8e]

I adored Gregory Heinz so very much,losing him is part of my heart that will never heal. Every time I see him or even hear his name, my heart jumps a ft. been that way since the 70s when he would be on the tonight show with his Dad and brother . He has the most beautiful wonderful face, God did such a wonderful job when he put that man all together.

[@aniasanimals]

Mads Mikkelsen deserves to be on the list with his vibrant performance at the end of 'Another Round'😮

[@tracyb5660]

Ryan Gosling danced in The Notebook.

[@spacejam8765]

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.

[@AyseEvin]

Jean claude van damme tango.. amazing

[@INC1995]

Mads Mikkelsen is a trained dancer, too 😊

[@Angelfeather100]

Richard Gere surprised me the most !

[@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]

Everyone that watched the show tried...

[@sheilagravely5621]

And a good back too.😊

[@WrenFaithBridger]

@@jsw11984 ...and yet, he injured himself doing it.

[@bonniemack5261]

My ballet instructor once told me the that best dancers are often class Valedictorians. There is a correlation between IQ and dancing ability. The ability to quickly learn choreography and move one's body accurately is a reflection of an unique intelligence.

[@krab1791]

The movie White Nights was a great way to show off Gregory Hines amazing talent set off against Mikhail Baryshnikov, two masters at their craft. RIP Gregory Hines. A great talent lost.😢

[@ChicaG-vg7pj]

I don't care what Daniel Craig does, as long as I can watch him do it, lol.

Yes!!! I agree with all of them. Eric Knox is a beautiful bad boy. ❤ Christopher 👏Walken 👏Moved👏 Me. I'm glad y'all agree. This is a good list to have.

[@robinsmith5442]

A lot of folks forget Alfonso Ribeiro did a Pepsi commercial with Michael Jackson

[@carolefreeman2544]

That’s what comes to mind every time I see Alfonso Ribeiro !

[@danatorres1035]

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.

oh. they are actually all very good.

[@matthewblanchard9301]

Al Pacino....... Scent of a Woman💃🕺(other films he dances, The Godfather, Scarface, Cruising, House of Gucci, Sea of Love) But it's his Tango in Scent of a Woman with Gabrielle Anwar(Burnt Notice) which is outstanding💃🕺

[@MaritaA-n1x]

He has been training as a dancer since he was 3. Also as a gymnast when he was not much older. If you search through YT it’s not hard to see evidence of his training. There are even a few clips from Billy Elliot.

[@lakeshjasarevic4955]

I'm a total movie buff so I've seen and own most of these movies. I must say Tom Holland surprised me the most but mainly because he's one of the youngest. I was also surprised that Ryan Reynolds, Chris Pratt and Terry Crews were not included!😮

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.
