The Evolution Of Mom Dancing

In 2013, First Lady Michelle Obama appeared on Late Night Jimmy Fallon. Both Michelle Obama and Fallon danced in, “The Evolution of Mom Dancing.” The dance routine was choreographed so that it had a very sweet and humorous quality to it.

The purpose of Michelle Obama’s appearance on the show was in honor of her “Let’s Move!” campaign against childhood obesity. The initiative urges parents in the United States to get moving with their children. The video featured “dance moves” such as the “Go Shopping, Get Groceries,” “The Hip Bump,” and a classic, “The Sprinkler.” First Lady Obama is dressed in Soccer Mom attire, her hair is done and she’s wearing a cardigan. Jimmy Fallon is also dressed like a soccer mom with white tennis shoes, khaki pants, a long-haired wig and cardigan as well. The video went viral.
