I hate it when people underestimate dancers who are ‘fat’.

Okay, I’m not obese but I’m pretty overweight. I’m actually 170 something pounds believe it or not. But I know that I can pretty much dance my ass off. I know I do not look great in all the skin tight costumes we might have to wear, but I can jump as high as everyone else, bring my leg up (almost) as high as everyone else, turn as much as everyone else. The only thing I’m not be able to do is be lifted. (hahaha)

But anyways, maybe I can’t do some tricks because I’m not trying hard enough or putting enough effort but I know for a fact its not because I’m fat. So next time you look past a dancer because you think they’re fat, don’t. You never know what they’ll be able to do or how much passion they have in their dancing, which is probably more important than all the tricks and stunts.

So for all of you who think I can’t dance because I’m fat, I’m proving you wrong.
