The hardest part of this week’s America’s Best Dance Crew speed-up challenge was figuring out a creativetransition to blend together the two sections. By far the most creative transition was Fanny Pak’s. They performed to Mariah Carey’s Touch My Body where they went back to a 1980s prom. It starts off with everyone dancing in pairs except for the blonde girl who acted like a rocker anti-prom chick. In order to get the party started, she poisons the punch and suddenly the prom gets a little crazy. Who would have ever thought that an idea as ridiculous as drinking spiked punch would actually make a great transition? My favorite part was when the white boys started shaking their booty. It was unexpected and entertaining.

Also, I have to highlight the prom dresses the girls wore. The pink and purple ruffles were the epitome of what you go scrimmaging for at thrift stores when you need a Halloween costume or outfit for a “Tacky Prom.” But you know what? The dresses actually worked. I loved how they threw in the all pink high tops. I would love to get my hands on a pair of those. People have not been giving Fanny Pak enough credit for their depth and ability of this group. Fanny Pak makes things work that would be corny in any other context.

If you haven’t seen Fanny Pak’s 80s prom performance, you need to watch it below. Otherwise, just watch it again. To watch their performance, skip to to 0:50.
