Yea I commented Adam is a very fluid dancer since three years ago; his movements are soft, flowing and sexy; somewhat like his singing, fluid, seamless...I think it's the same artistic component of the brain orchestrating. I'd like to see Adam to the cha-cha.

Spinning in those heels - fabulous.
Like Fred Astaire. Graceful.

It looks like Adam has taken some dance training. He spots when he turns and he doesn't lose control. Not an easy feat with those heals even though it looks easy. I love this new moves that I haven't seen him do before. I am also noticing his flexibility especially during that leg kick on the couch during KQ.

I think Sauli told him how to spot when he turns. Sauli in an interview told how he had to learn that on his spins, on DOI. I think they still keep in contact somewhat. I would think it is more difficult to do it in those heels, but then I think it is equally hard to run up the stairs in them. Adam looks so comfortable in heels, and doing anything in heels is not easy, but I have never seen him trip or stumble. He should get extra points for just wearing them, let alone doing some spins.

I also love when the audience suddenly screams and applauds, and Brian looks up to see what Adam is doing now. Brian seems to love all the little things Adam has put into his part of the show, and it seems like he has given him free rein to do pretty much what Adam wants to do.

Adam had dance training for all the musical theatre he did. That is more likely where he learned to spot while spinning.

Loved his rock 'n roll head banging on his Dragon Attack performance in Toronto last night. Still though my favorite Dragon Attack performance is this:

If he had dance training for his musical theatre work, he has not really used it until now. He has always said he was not good at dancing. All of a sudden he is doing the steps with Queen that I have never seen him do before, and he was quite good and graceful. I think he might have had some recent training.

Gabi said...

That turn sequence is a classic jazz move that I haven't seen Adam do before, but I don't think he learned that technique from a figure skater. (In fact - sorry to obsess over this so much - back in my own dance days I learned that skaters, contrary to dancers, actually don't spot when turning as it goes too fast). Adam has a good number of friends with a dance background plus there are many great dance studios in LA who offer private instruction, but I agree that he might revive some dance moves from his theater days. Regardless, Adam is the #wholepackage! He can move, he can sing, he can act, he's charming and gorgeous, and he can pull off many different looks just splendidly.

Could be Terrence Spencer was among those who gave Adam some dance pointers. I think that spin was .prepared and rehearsed for this tour. Don't think that particular move was spontaneous. And done to perfection just as Adam does everything. I do think some of his other moves were off the cuff though, like those on the chaise. Adam is talented and thinks quickly. As he said once, it's For Your Entertainment.

Unknown said...

Adam has said he's not a dancer but he is such a perfectionist that he compares himself to all the professional dancers that our his friends. Compared to the average dancer, Adam is fabulous! He is naturally graceful with great balance and extremely flexible which a good dancer needs to be. Combine these traits with his sexiness and he's the best dancer in the world haha......nancdruuu2

Anne Marie said...

Adam is flexible, and can dance in small segments, but he is not a dancer per se. You cannot compare him to professional dancers, he only portrays that more feminine side when he is being flirty, as he was in the small segment in the tour. Someone obviously taught him how to spot in spins, which is something he had to learn and practice.

Terrance was in Las Vegas. Before the tour he was hanging around with Brian Friedman. Friedman has done tour choraghraphy for Gaga, KP, RiRi, and others.

I beg your forgiveness, but I believe that in the second show in London was the height of the peacock-dragon's dancing moves. It was like the red jacket (oh, that jacket!) entered the mating season by itself and the singer was there just for support. :-)
Btw, amazing vocals / musical arrangement / bass line for that song.

GLB.....That ain't no peacock nor dragon...That's my Bird of Paradise! lwl!

Magiclady said...

I have to chime in here. I loved the Kiev "Dragon Attack". It was so crisp and sharp. I watch and listen to it often...

Unknown said...

@Glb. Yes, that second night DA performance in London was epic as well. I enjoyed music arrangement of Toronto 2nd night DA a lot. The first time performance of DA in Wroclaw Poland was fabulous as well.

@blu. I understand how you feel. Hard to resist YouTube videos of Adam. Especially in the morning when we have to go to work.

Those Killer Queen gifs (lilybop) are really weird; Adam is combining so many funny actions all at the same time; reclining on the couch legs wide opened, ostentatious platform clogs clicking, fanning, sticking out his tongue, licking and when Brian comes by, he opens his mouth in delight; smiling and basking in the audience's attention. lol!
