Thank you b.e.t for understanding & showcasing that black entertainment comes in ALL FORMS..
THIS IS EVERYTHING!! TOLD AND EXPRESSED BY NONE OTHER THAN OUR COMMUNITY AND OUR PEOPLE!
Historically, the Harlem ball scene and houses came about because these Black LGBTQIA people were thrown out of their bloodline families.
I have always loved and am in love with this community. I know as times goes the struggle will loosen up and mainstream media will downright try and steal your styles - and sell it as brand new.
That is the absolute truth!
They did this back in the the day with Madonna...
can’t believe this was a BET video, hope they continue with this part of our history
I'm here after learning XG tgif dance was inspired by this type of dancing❤
i just want to know how they afford to pay for all these awesome outfits
A lot them create their outfits by hand!!!
Most are made by hand. That's part of what makes the ball special. Its unique to that specific person.
Don’t those death drops hurt? How is this move executed without pain or injury?
they're called death drops for a reason
@@arttale7
They're called dips tho
It requires a lot of stretching. You can also see how the people always land on their legs
My ankle would break and knee would split
dramatics and twister voguers all come to a point when it is dangerous to do big dips. leyomi had to have back surgery. several fem queens who got silicone in their hips had to get tattoos on their hips and thighs to hide the brusing from dipping. ashley would not dare try to do the dips she helped create. pioneers and older icons stick to runway or oldway voguing, and that's for the best.
this is good.!
I think the bald one is a REAL woman 🤔
Nikki Tucker she is
that's what im tryna figure out frfr
hell, she BETTER be. lol
😂
Is there a such thing as a FAKE woman?
I have a nice build👀I have nice skin👀pretty hair👀wtf is going on and why was this reccommended??? I'm done with BET & the BS
But you watched though

@@sobasic7956 tutuloo squash🐽
Really don’t know why people decided some of these moves are the things to do, they look pretty stupid.
Shut it.
😍😍😍
Whew chileee! There’s a whole lot of homophobia in this comment section 🙄
The girl at 6:06 reminds me of Elektra from the tv series Pose!!!!
That's my daughtah!! Obianibell aka Obiani. Thank you so MUCH 💜💜💜💜
Elektra/Dominique aka Tyra Allure/Milan/Mugler (I can’t remember all the houses she was in but it was a few). She has videos of her absolutely killing it in runway and face.
@hykuvava2269 You truly have an amazing daughter & I maybe just a stranger from winnipeg. But I truly love everything to do with the ball ❤❤❤❤
I was researching ballrooms for an uni project about wallpaper design and this video is just pure gold! I love being queer, and i love my community so much!
I’m here for all of this!!
Because of rpdr, now it's all designers and what they can mop or get/buy. It's kinda ironic since back in the 80s when Rupaul was part of the ballroom scene those runways were a competition of designs of amazing creativity which mainstream runways across the world and even that bigot a hole, Tommy Hilfiger, would steal and then embellish to make them their own and make their coins--a lot of coins! We sure miss that creativity that is absent from the ballroom scene today.
but they still get to design the wardrobes though? and contribute atleast in the conceptual level. it's insane to discount the queens of "now" because they employ designer.
RPDR is a ballroom derivative but it is a very separate thing from ballroom itself. Also let it be known RuPaul was NOT part of the ballroom scene he was very much a club kid. Ironically the only person in the judges panel who stepped into that culture was Michelle 😭
rupaul was never a part of ballroom
Love this B.E.T!!💕💕
Obiana is absolutely stunning!
This is such a great video. The stories and histories behind each category are everything!
Love love love! Thank you for this wonderful showcase of the ballroom community and what it truly means by the ones who live it everyday!
The bald lady at 6:06 is a female, Eve, woman, lady, sister, QUEEN--naturally. I KNOW. She is my DAUGHTER.
The others are whatever they feel comfortable, pleased, HAPPY, joyful being. Call it woman, lady, girl, man, hunty--or QUEER AS FU©K!!
MMMK!?. What I can tell you is you didn't listen!! It was spoken by ALL of them. EVERYONE IS WELCOLMED DAWLIN!!!! 💜💜💜💜 I love you Obiani!! You and your new family are divine joy!!
You are so proud of her. I love to see it.
i'm still confused about the categories and rules
The dip around 1:35 is E.VER.Y.THING!!!
AAAND THEE CATEGORY IZZZ-ZUH...!

Marquis Revlon givinggg it in the beginning
I love this. We need this. This This This
So grateful to be able to watch this. Many thanks for this post!
👏🏽🥰🥰👏🏽🥰
That's where Beyonce copies the dance moves. 🤨 But, they are better dancers. 😀
THIS IS BLACK CULTURE!!! I don't care what anyone feels. But the amount of non black genre that try to steal from this is astronomical!
Wow!! What an honor to watch, thank you!
Say Hi if you’re watching from 2024
They cut Obiani because of that pimple but she effortlessly slide! Had me madddddd
I’ve never heard ‘fierce’ used to say something is bad or needs to be fixed lol
when someone insults someone who everyone else is afraid to, that's being fierce in a kind of bad way. or you walk a category that you have absolutely no business walking, that's fierce in a bad way.
Time to unfollow & block this channel 👎👎👎👎
