What is Beyoncé’s most popular dance move?
As one of the songs off of Beyoncé’s 2008 album, the artist performed this song as her alter ego, Sasha Fierce. Queen Bey also created the iconic black and white music video and the “Single Ladies hand,” which became one of her best-known dance moves.
This song and its music video marked a new chapter for Beyoncé. Justin Timberlake appeared in a Saturday Night Live sketch based on this song. The artist even earned the MTV Video Music Award for Video of the Year for the production.
Over 10 years since its release, the “Single Ladies” music video has over 800 million views. The singer even performed the hit during her Coachella set. One of the people behind the dance is Ashley Everett, Beyoncé’s dance captain.
“That’s when people started recognizing me,” Everett said of “Single Ladies” during an interview with Refinery29. “Before that, only the hardcore fans knew me from her first tour.
“But after ‘Single Ladies,’ people would point at me on the street or come up to me and say that they were Ashley Everett fans,” she continued. “When we filmed that video, I was just doing my job and so excited to be a part of it. I had no idea it would blow up like it did. But I was so grateful.”
Beyoncé worked on several groundbreaking projects, including Disney’s live-action adaptation of ‘The Lion King’ and ‘Lemonade’
She’s a dancer, but Beyoncé also voice acted for Disney’s photo real adaptation of The Lion King, where she appeared as the character Adult Nala.
She even created an album based on the story of the Disney production, The Lion King: The Gift, which then became the visual album Black is King.
Music by Beyoncé, including “Single Ladies,” is available for streaming on Spotify, Apple Music, and Tidal.
