Gotta love Shaq’s persona. Always ready to entertain, and he does during his grand entrance at the 2009 NBA All Star game.
But what’s more impressive is to see the Jabbawockeez blowin’ up! It’s always inspiring to watch the journey of those who are truly dedicated to their passion and art. The crew has endured many obstacles but still soldier on doing what they believe in. I watched these guys on the first season of MTV’s America’s Best Dance Crew and they continue to amaze me. And not just by their talent, but by how grounded they are, too.
How do I know this? I met the crew on one of their tour stops, just bumped into them in the hotel lobby. They were just checking in and seemed busy, but they took the time to chop it up with me and my buddies for a few minutes. Very cool.
I wish Jabbawockeez the best and look forward to seeing them getting more exposure and sharing their talents with the world.
You never know who’ll need some dancers to back them up at Super Bowl 2010.
Here’s the clip. (The quality of the Youtube sucks, so here’s a link to a better video)

Yeah! I saw that, and it was AWESOME!
And they’re in the Gatorade commercial guarding the bridge. I think they’re the most recognizable out of all the ABDC people because they have masks – all the other ones – you see them dancing behind Shaq, you wouldn’t know who they are!
But I liked that! I read on Shaq’s twitter that he was practicing with the Jabbawockeez, but didn’t know it was for this! AWESOME!
@Mark,
The Gatorade commercial was sick, too! KG didn’t dance as well as Shaq, though, hah!
I didn’t even notice it was KG I thought it was a morphed Flavor Flav at first. Jabbawockeez, didn’t we see them at a club?
