Jimmy Kimmel Dancing to "Chandelier" Is Epic

by Tanya Ghahremani

Maddie Ziegler of Dance Moms has been the talk of the Internet since starring as the lead dancer — the only dancer! — in Sia's video for her excellent new song "Chandelier," so it's no wonder that major names in Hollywood have been trying to recreate Ziegler's epic dance since the video was released. Lena Dunham, for instance! The latest stars to jump on the bandwagon, though: Jimmy Kimmel and Guillermo Rodriguez. On last night's episode of Jimmy Kimmel Live!, Maddie Ziegler appeared to teach Jimmy Kimmel and Guillermo Sia's "Chandelier" dance, and, since this is Kimmel, the results were understandably hilarious.

Things you should absolutely know before watching: When he's in the right element, Kimmel can summon cattiness intense enough to rival anything I've seen on Dance Moms and The Real Housewives. Guillermo has a total dancer's face — but not much else ideal for a dancer. Also, Ziegler is a badass, will probably be super famous one day, and she definitely deserves her own show separate from Dance Moms at this point.

You can check out the clip below. Poor Jimmy and Guillermo — hopefully they don't get discouraged from following their dreams!

On second thought, maybe they should be discouraged.
