An override button is clearly needed for the judges.
I don't know much about classical ballet but that performance was beautifully executed.
That crowd was just beyond comprehension. What a disappointment letting such talent go like that.
Although 73% of them did press their buttons.
Like the golden buzzer in bgt
I'm a ballet dancer and i can say he did some of the hardest ballet steps
I agreed.
The fat ginger woman in the audience looked like jabba the hutt. How can someone like that appreciate ballet? ☹
“No, We have the power remember.”
This is basically why it is scary to give to much power to those who know nothing.
With great power comes great responsibility!
And obviously they were an ignorant audience, in which with no responsibility but their own interests .
absolutely correct!
Ha, That's what I've been saying about the voters in Southern part of u.s.a. for a long time
Yup!!!
Oh my goodness! How politely and eloquently you wrote exactly how so many of us feel towards "entitled nothings" who have not an ion of sense of discipline and beauty within their tiny minds 😳
Thankyou for allowing me not to disgrace myself with what I REALLY wanted to say...
To the Dancer... Please don't give up 🙏
Remember what "they" said of Mr Fred Astaire!
(I wish there were Knighthoods in America)
Peace and Light 🌟
As a classically trained ballerina, I have to say that that was freaking incredible. It breaks my heart that people just don’t understand how damn hard that routine was and how much technique that routine required. I don’t understand how people can sit and judge dancing when they clearly have NO CLUE about dancing. I understand that’s the whole point of the show but I am just speechless that they let such talent walk away.
#SameSister #THEYAREDAMNDISRESPECTFUL
People think that all ballet is so easy, just turn a bit, wear a fluffy white tutu and that's it. But it's NOT. Us dancers train endlessly, go through so much pain, and yet we are still over looked
thats exactly what everybody in my class thinks but if you wanna get to the top you gotta start young and put in the hours
yes but acteon music corsaire costume .the kazak guy was not bad he was also medalist in varna but this location and staging is dreadful and the jury a bunch of idiots
@@pediatrapaola so true
It killed me when he said ‘I tried my best, I don’t Know what happened’. It may not be as ‘exciting’ as other upbeat dances but people don’t realise the hard work and practise it takes to perform so flawlessly on stage. Would’ve turned my light on all the way. Well done !
Yeah it was so amazing!
As a classically trained ballet dancer, I could not fault a thing with that dance. People are crazy, he was technically perfect! He should have gone through.
They don't realize that though. If you do not realize how hard something is you aren't impressed by it. If the audience was made up of people who have actually done any kind of formal dancing it would have been 100.
I have no dance training and I knew this was amazing! Just knowing that he trained in Russia is enough to know he will be stunning before he even started!
Nathan Sparshott yes I agree, I am a ballet dancer and I got so frustrated when he didn’t get through, ( especially that he was at 73% and he needed 75% to get through)
Nathan Sparshott same. I am also a classically trainer dancer and that was perfect technically. It’s a shame the audience couldn’t recognize true talent. He had me in awe the second he started.
general public are to uneducated to realize the quality they were looking at.
To the girl who said “We have the power”, sadly that’s the only thing you have. YOU HAVE NO TASTE.
She doesn't hhavve a brain either
But she pressed her button tho 🤨
Elle Yahiya it’s not even taste they need they need to realise the strength difficulty and effort put into just that dance alone
Truuuu
Elle Yahiya Ikr. If the future belongs to her ilk, then God help us. It's f****** terrifying.
If the girl who said we've got the power is reading this u might have the power but u have no taste
and that's how you read ladies and gentlemen
I couldn't agree with you more.
Julián Herrera reading is fundamental
Agree with you. She might can't dance herself
She has absolutely no idea of dancing obviously..... it makes me sad that people nowadays tend to like bullshity and superficial things and don't see the beauty in classical and traditional things, because they are not all bad and outdated.
If he twerked, he would have reached 100% in few seconds..
I hate this world.
Sad, but true my friend
Exactly. People nowadays looks for sexyness instead of art itself. So sad but real fact.
Agreed. I'm sad and frustrated. I'm not in the dance world but I can appreciate a great perfomance.
Trash show trash people. He will make it he’s too good
As a classical ballerina myself, it hurts to see so many people who genuinely have no idea how much work goes into such a breathtaking and elegant performance. He was flawless.
Olivia-Rose I’m no dancer but seeing him move so gracefully and effortlessly, that showed me how hard he worked to perfect his craft. It’s sad because this is a dance competition and these audience is obviously not open to different forms of dance.
I know I am very frustrated
I'm also a classical ballerina... and a balletteacher of 11 groups... I'm feel so sorry... And it hurts really .. to know that so many people in this world don't respect us
I agree. You see the same thing with singing. As a trained singer it makes me so sad that people have no idea how much work goes into opera and just laugh at it because it's not their style. Yet anyone who can scream at the top of their lungs is "naturally talented".
@@nationalparkpups7396 I agree. Even my father did not like Serena Onasis because he said it's loudness. And it was a refreshing change after I got married because my wife listens to all kinds of music that I do not hear at the radio stations. She would research for very old classical ballet movies & do a lot of stretching for flexibility. Ballet was used by every athlete before even basketball players. But now, stories are needed to add some spice to keep every audience awake.
Cheryl is correct part of the audience aren’t technically minded and have no clue how difficult and perfect his routine was therefore they didn’t appreciate his dance :(
If I don't know about something that I should be considering/judging technically, then I always ask myself how long it would take me to do that thing..... The longer it would take makes me think the more talented and skilled the person must be.
It would take me like 5 lifetimes to even be half as good as that lol
@@lozzylols the problem is not many people have as much common sense as you. You can see that this is difficult but there are alot of people who would think this looks easy. I just wish more people in the audience were like you.
But watching that i ddnt need a ballet technicalities know-how to undertand that the dancer was very very good. I think some audience already judged him even before he started dancing.
The producer of this show sucks. This show is call The Greatest Dancer, you suppose to find the best, let the professional dance judges pick, not the audience. These pro dancers put in years of hard work, waiting for a chance, and the audience give their spot away to the 7 obese old guys that are not really good dancers. The producer need to learn from other dance show like World of Dance, and You Think You Can Dance.
@@lozzylols 5 lifetimes lmao,it would take me 7 lifetimes.☺️
I hope the guys who performed watches this and realises that the judges loved him and it was some stupid people in the audience who didn’t understand his talent
The girl that said “we have all the power” should get a reality check because at the end of the day she can’t do 13 pirouettes and he can
Wtf!!! How uncultured are the audience!! He was flawless.
That's the problem with this show: the audience influence the decisions. They're most likely to vote based on the entertainment factor rather than actual skill, which is a shame since he's so incredibly talented. It's too bad that the audience don't consider that.
It's Strictly all over again.
@@CathyKitson difference is Strictly is an entertainment show, that is why they have celebs on it, but you can't have a show called the greatest dancer, invite great dancers along, and then in theory say they aren't the 'greatest' and definitely not better than the idiot that came before or after and got through!
Lauren T exactly! The clue is in the name, did they really believe the guy dancing to Cheryl Cole was greater than this?
Lauren T I agree 100%.
It’s just the wrong show for him. He needs to go to some other show.
I am not a dancer, but still I am both surprised and not surprised. The audience is mostly young people and it’s a literal popularity contest. He is clearly an accomplished dancer even to untrained eyes but the audience wants things to be modern and sexy. The girl who said “we have the power” unfortunately is right. Can you imagine if Olympic figure skating was judged by the audience instead of judges? People might win because their song choice was more contemporary or their outfit was more appealing.
“It wasn’t that exciting” C'MON TELL ME THAT YOU CAN DO ALL OF THAT for me it was SUUUPER EXCITING and if the judges are telling to vote for that it means that is AWESOME
An override button for the judges would be a fantastic idea. If that’s too easy make it so that at least two judges have to agree before they can overrule the audiences inexperienced opinions.
I agree to both ideas. Overriding the ignorant commoners. Hahaha
God his talent was amazing but the audience didn’t think the routine wasn’t “exciting” enough. Being a dancer doesn’t need to be exciting or for you to jump out your chairs to the music. It’s about the flow of the body and mind being in sync. I’m disappointed cuz I myself am a dancer but I am not fond of ballet either but damn did yaz do an amazing job.
He is so talented they can’t appreciate the art
it should be like a golden buzzer... each judge can only do it once
Or make it a golden buzzer type of deal.
That is a genius idea...
ouch, the power of the uncultured masses. #sad
Ikr. 3:42 The girl who said: "It wasn't that exciting, was it?"
4:41 Same girl: "No. We have the power, remember?" Pretty terrifying.
A guy later said: "I think 1,000 voices are more important than 3." Not if the 1,000 are all morons! The 27% who didn't vote are philistines.
I couldn’t agree with you more! Eurgh...idiots.
Yeah...I felt so bad. I'm not a dancer, but even I could see the training and effort and experience written all over his face.
But they vote through some waistcoated, untalented,person prancing around like a ten year old...!
It is not uncultured to express a preference. If ballet is so cultured and popular, it wouldn't need government handouts.
I actually hate that girl 'we have the power:. I am a ballet dancer myself and that was technically perfect people don't understand want pure talent is 😂
Pure talent or hard work? I think talent and hard work but I'm not a dancer that is why I ask.
Miyoko Motoyoki he clearly has both. he’s talented but also must work his butt off to get that level of technical precision
Same. They must not know how hard it is to do ballet. When I was learning a la secondes, it was really hard. Even a penche was hard when i first learnt it. Like who does these ppl think they are
@Polite Gordon Ramsay exactly. I love ur username tho polite gordon ramsay😅😅😅
She as stupid as she’s ugly
People are so caught up in contemporary dance in today's world that they don't find or see classically trained dancers as interesting anymore! Classically trained dancers aren't in the public eye that much, much less Russian trained. As a retired dancer that is trained in various styles of dance, the guy was flawless. The most beautiful dance I have seen in a long time. It is true what Cheryl said the audience was not technically-minded to see the quality that Yaz had was frustrating and I agree! Beautiful performance Yassaui!!
I still love contemporary but I'm a big fan of ballet and ballroom dancing
It's so funny how people turn their lights on for the dumbest thing, but when someone goes there to actually share ART, they find it boring.
It might sound repetitive but that's why _we_ are _where_ we are.
We are ignorant. And it's because we only look for the fun stuff, not for the important or meaningful.
Aelyn Balderas What’s so meaningful about dancing ballet with good technique on a reality tv show? He should have passed but he didn’t take his audience into account.
Hipster Madara if u need special effects and photoshop to understand the meaning then u don’t know ballet and don’t have the right to judge something u don’t understand.... this show is about every kind of dancing and an inexperienced audience with no knowledge of classics don’t even deserve those seats! He actually respected the audience by giving his best and not complaining when they didn’t vote....
Hipster Madara it’s called “The Greatest Dancer” not “The Greatest Entertainer”
@@youwhat. really if you just want entertainment then go to a bar or whatever it is greatest dancer!!! he is very good technically he is flawless . but you people who don't know the meaning of art of dancing are dumb comparing them in modern dancing without meaning that is stupidity... just pike comparing diamond in a fake on.
Aelyn Balderas. This is proof how people are ignorant when it comes to classical art and not only that, I feel that there was also prejudice involved as well because people are used to see female ballet dancers but they don't seem to like their male counterparts as much!
Yassaui showed something elegant and sophisticated to people who aren't sophisticated enough to appreciate.
3:48 "Public got it wrong. Brexit Part 2."
Totally agree.
Bon PANG Exactly! I don’t understand those people😭 And that girl at 4:42 who said “No, we have the power” or something like that :(
I don't know if you're trying to draw parallels towards this and the Brexit vote by saying that those who voted against this man and for Brexit are both unsophisticated or not, but I'm assuming you are and would like to let you know that Politics is a whole different beast when compared to people not understanding why a particular form of dance is of a high skill calibur.
People who voted for or against Brexit have different things in mind which they hope to gain and isn't a simple right or wrong answer, people from all walks of life will have voted for either side because they believed they(or their country) will be better off for it, it's much more complex when compared to this situation lol.
Stevieyeet I think you're taking it a tad too seriously.
Most people in the audience have never done or seen the difference in the different levels of ballet. They don't realize how hard what he was doing was. It's not their fault they don't know, at the moment ballet is not something that they are exposed to. They didn't come to the show to see ballet. Dance is not all technique, you have to make your particular audience like you.
but this is Acteon variation where ballet audience expect to see wild passion and the explosion of masculine energy instead of elegance and sophistication. if he had danced this like Polunin or Ruzimatov, crowd would have gone crazy. ballet is a very very tough performing art.
That women who said “no we have the power” definitely hasn’t EVER danced in her whole life
Exactly! I wanted to slap her
The problem is that they didn’t bring in an audience of dancers
Damn general public can’t appreciate what he did out there and the effort it takes
This happened so many times throughout the show and it was so frustrating to watch
Boo hoo hoo... he has to learn sometime that not everyone is going to love what he does... no matter what his mom told him.
The guy who said “Brexit 2” hit the nail on the head.
That is what happens when people who have no idea what’s going on vote!
What does that mean?
Michal Teplan what does Brexit 2 mean?
I can guarantee that not ONE person in that crowd can even do one single thing he did, these people have NO IDEA what real art is and he was the definition of ART and DANCE in one body. Absolutely AMAZING I hope he will come back again and prove all those people wrong
Magnificent dancer ~ They should bring him back ~ Judges should have the power to judge
That one guy: “It’s Brexit part 2”
Me: BAHAHAHAHAHA 😂😂🤣🤣🤣😂😂🤣🤣😂😂😂😂
What an audience! That was a big, Big, *BIG* mistake on their part. They have no idea of the blood, sweat and tears that go into making a dancer of that caliber. Even if classical ballet was not their cup of tea, had they given him a chance, I think one of the judges would help choreograph a more contemporary ballet piece that would suit the taste of even the least sophisticated of them.
I don't call that as sophistication. Even though ballet is now called as old school, it should have been added at historical books or a certain topic added for dance's warm-ups witj classical & instrumental music. People nowadays do not know how to compromise, comprehend or be compatible with relaxation. That's different from being sleepy. Sigh...
The voting of this show needs to be changed and this is the reason why. No expert in ballet dancing but I can tell he worked so hard. This idiot audience had no clue. He was amazing.
Don't worry. In a few years we will have perfect holographic images of replicated and perfected human dancers doing perfect ballet moves across the stage. Humans efforts and education in all of the arts is not longer admired, appreciated, and treasured.
The guy who said, "It's Brexit part 2" -- that was succinct brilliance.
The girl that said we “ hold the power remember” is PERFECT for the evil leader in a dystopian society book
The audience hasn't a clue what real dance is. Ignorance is a terrible thing. I hope someone with the power will take him and make his dream come true.
I hope so too
I never usually comment on any videos but as a dancer myself I am extremely disappointed that he didn’t get through. He has incredible technique, especially when executing difficult steps. It honestly upsets me that this type of dancing doesn’t excite the general public. I’ve grown up watching ballet and I get a real enjoyment out of it. I feel as though my generation cannot appreciate the complexity and difficulty of ballet, as they see it as ‘boring’. One day I hope that a tv programme, screened to a wide audience, is able to show the public and my generation ballet in a new light, so they can see the true beauty of it. Or at the very least, in these ‘competition’ shows, I hope to see a talented ballet dancer reach the final or even win. On a final note, I believe that if we don’t inspire the general public to perhaps go watch a ballet, that in the future it may become a dying art. I do not wish to see this happen. Too much hard work goes into this craft for there to be no recognition. For everyone who is a ‘non-dancer’, I hope you read this comment and just maybe begin to see the amount of talent this guy has.
I agree, I've been learning ballet since I was 3 and it just drives me crazy that people don't appreciate and love the art form as much as I do. I don't think the general public know exactly how hard ballet is, it is extremely difficult to even do one flawless pirouette, and all those a la secondes are amazing. It is just sad that they call this show "the greatest dancer" when they are not even looking for the greatest dancer, but rather "the greatest entertainer"...
SoPhunny it already is dying and it’s tragic. That is why the New York ballet and others are mixing in acrobatic and lyrical elements. To try to stay relevant for the uncultured masses.
Ballet is beautiful and moving and I don't understand people who don't like it but that is their choice, I guess.
I’m a complete layman, and he took my breath away. His passion alone was something to witness., without understanding technique.
I guess the parents of these generation did not have classical music or expose their children to watch ballet. I showed my kids the "Leap", " Swan Lake" & "Nutcracker" because we could not afford tickets to buy at first class theaters. My wife do stretches & showing our kids how since she had Figure Skating & basic ballet + pilates stretches before she succumbed to psoriatic arthritis. Even though we do not do ballet but still, we still need to let the world know about ballet. It's not just a dance or an art, but a historical movement to still exist.
I cried watching this I'm not a dancer and I suck at dancing but the time energy and hard work he gave to make that beautiful performance and I bet more than half of the people in the audience don't dance either yet they acted that way it just broke my heart that out of nowhere tears where poring out of my eyes.
Sadly that's what happens when you let unprofessionals do the job they're not meant to do.
Never underestimate the stupidity of the Great British Public. I like how every single one got through except this one - even that bloke who started with his hand on his hip! Most of them were mediocre, except for the little girl with the marvellous leg movements. I said to my husband: "He. Was. Too. Good. For. Them." We see it in Strictly every year.
He was technically perfect. He should of definitely got through, no competition.
2:19
“It just wasn’t that exciting, was it?”
It’s ballet.. a dance style based on technique, it was perfect!! How could you not switch on your light for him?? It was brilliant!!
The girl who said it is also a ballet dancer herself haha
This show is a disgrace...let’s have people who know nothing about dance vote! What a freaking joke...😤
And the tittle is The Greatest Dancer lol
and if people can shake their hips to an upbeat top 40 song they have their cote wtf!
It wasn’t ‘exciting’ enough for the chavs of the audience... jeez Louise this isn’t Britain’s got talent... it’s the greatest DANCER! Some people could do with with a BIG heaped helping of culture.
Georgina Thamesford-Belle Chavs sums it up quite well.
Gold Rose preach🙌🏼🙌🏼 so annoying!!
Georgina Thamesford-Belle I think they were hoping for a twerk😂
I agree. Did they want a big show with fireworks? It is Greatest dancer not Britain's got talent. I mean I know people got to love the dance and be entertained but that doesnt mean a circus.
AGREE
I've never been so ashamed to see people not see true art. He was amazing! Truly amazing!
.9
The fact the audience didn’t let him through is heart breaking
This show should change its name, because they just missed a REALLY GREAT DANCER. It’s sad, and he was so humble too.
“No.. we have the power, remember?” WHO DOES SHE THINK SHE IS
Some people are so Disrespectful!
They even have no idea how many routines it take to get to this......
And yes he is an Asian too😔
😍😍😍😍😍
@@asankawanigasekara6138 What does that mean??
no offence but he is actually from kazahkstan i konw cuz my mum is kazahk
@@katyamacaulay6851 What's offensive about it mate??
Kazakhstan is still in Central Asia...
you know some people in this world are pretty arrogant about some stupid things but at least your not one of them
i’m just thinking “thank goodness they caught that girl on camera saying that... everyone gonna know who she is 😗😗😗😗 “
But honestly... after this, the show better put up an override button IF THE JUDGE SAYS THEY NEED ONE GIVE EM ONNEEEEE !!
The girl who said “we have the power” clearly has no taste and no soul! She does not know what talent is!!!
That girl who said she has the power is obviously not aware of what true art is.
Joshua Joel Catubig she’s a Dance teacher
@@youtubechannelart510 A crap one clearly
she was clearly not a good dance teacher !!! just a plain dumb comment shows how uncultured she is! disgusting.
Or she knows but doesn’t care. You gotta adjust for your audience. You can’t just say “this is a really complex and elegant art so you must vote for more of it.” You have to entertain people not just expect them to do all the work to appreciate it.
Joshua Joel Catubig everyone misinterpreted what she said. the coach said he wishes they had an override button and she was saying no they don’t have an override button because the choice is supposed to be up to the audience
Ballet isn’t entertaining for some people who don’t have a strong dance background. The public did not understand the technical difficulty and elegance this man had . This dancer is brilliant
What’s the point of having a load of non dancers judge who’s good and who’s not 🤔
As someone new to the ballet world I feel extremely sad for him. It's something so hard to do amd it is as mental as it is physical. I've done sports for a long time and ballet is on a level of its own. I think part of it was because he was a man dancing ballet as well. When he started dancing you could see the looks on some people's faces. An asian man dancing ballet is great in the ballet world. Would love to see more of him.
You are right That's how stupid peoples are Asain man dancing ballet that's all they see they didn't even know how talented he was that so sad
He was incredible. He 100% had my vote!
As a dancer myself, I can understand how hard those moves are to achieve. I would never be able to do any of what he did. I want to go on but there will be too much writing.
I’m sorry why do people who clearly know nothing about dance get to make the decisions?! An untrained eye will be wowed by tricks over real technical dancing. This man was robbed
They don't understand how much talent this actually takes.
This is the problem with shit shows like this - people don't actually know what they're talking about, they have no authority to determine who can dance and who can't.
the sadder part is that this show actually had a qualified panel who were sophisticated and knowledgeable about dancing, but alas, they were given no power. Instead they gave it to a mass of people who might or might not know about the art.. should've called the show the people's dancer not the greatest dancer if they just voted based on entertainment not technique.
I FELT BAD FOR HIM!!!
People think that ballet is easy because it looks easy. But making it look like that is actually the hardest thing of it.
My ballet teacher once said "It looks so easy because it is so hard." That's so damn true 😅
My heart legit hurts watching this. Like he did so incredibly well and the audience is just so blinded by contemporary styles that they can't see how truly amazing this is.
This guy didn't pass and that guy with a glitter jacked passed. This is so bad
‘no we have the power’ - how ironic, the people who are misinformed and have a (frankly incorrect) strong opinion have more of a say than the professionals...
Lalala Lalala True of everything else in Britain!
Ironic? How about sad and pathetic.
Agreed, power without knowledge is shame.
His audition was FLAWLESS! He danced so smoothly it was very pleasant to see him dance.
i’m sorry but the guy who said it’s Brexit part 2🤣🤣
All that talent and years and years of professional training. But let's face it, it's Saturday night TV for the masses... Not a technical expert selection panel....
People dont get what techniques means they just look for something that makes them sad or happy.THIS SPEAKS A STORY IF YOU INOW DANCE .
I danced professionally as a ballerina for 14 years and I find this to be absolutely insulting that the audience doesn’t recognize the years of training it takes to dance like this. He is a true professional, shame on the audience.
I’ve only been trained in ballet for a short amount of time but people don’t realise how hard and how much stamina you need for a performance like that🙄
HELLO!!!! He was incredible but the audience simply don’t appreciate his talent as they don’t understand the strength, skill and the quality of his performance....also just how many years, hours and dedication it takes to be so technically advanced. EVEN Oti said that he did “13 pirouettes”. They are fouetté turns love!? What a joke. Booooo!!!!
I had to go back to see too. "Wait? Pirouettes? Where???" ;) Fouettées indeed ;)
“It’s Brexit part 2” someone find me that guy please 😂😂😂❤️ For real through that was top quality
WHAT one earth ‘it wasn’t that exciting’ are you kidding me??
It was technically perfect and BEAUTIFUL. 13 pirouettes is definitely exciting
The girl who said it is trained in ballet
I don’t know a lot about ballet but that was AMAZING he was so captivating to watch
This is the difference between Europe & Asia went it come to these kind of competition. For ex in China during the Singer competition they carefully select 500 people (5%) from 10 000 to be the judge on only 1 episode. The process repeat again every episode with another 10 000 people. They are doing that so they can keep only people that know different genre, style, and are not just random with their selection.
Cheryl booing the crowd, he was such a class act tho he left respectfully. He was amazing !!
I actually cried when he was waiting for the doors to open, and he said "i dont know what happened".
Incredible dancer, i hope the judges got in contact with him afterward to speak to him about how awesome that technique was. I have no words. Beautiful dancer, amazing choreography, brilliant excecution. That performance moved me.
You did great. You were amazing and wonderful dancing dude!!!!! Dont allow it to get you down. They were the most ignorant audience I have ever seen.
Audiences are just full of ignorant class. Sorry!!!
Agreed. You could see it went zoop! Right over their heads. Never cast pearls before swine.
...and that is why most likely a guy in costume doing the chicken dance will win. :-(
buschbohne001 wtf
Audience are racist . That’s what they are
I never comment on UA-cam videos. But I was so annoyed that people didn't press they lights for him. Just because it wasn't hip-hop or them doing amazing flips and tricks. He was the most amazing and beautiful technical dancer on there. I would have pressed my light for him. I would have loved to see the people that didn't press the light have ago at what he was doing and see how hard it actually was.
He danced with soooo much strength. How did people not vote for him? He was so stable and his technique was an absolute dream. It was nearly fault free and he did take a lot of risks. I feel like the people don’t understand how hard ballet is, so they don’t appreciate his talent. Such a shame! I could honestly watch his performance on repeat for hours!
“Just wasnt that exciting was it?”
I bet she is a cool person to hang with
Knowing the kind of people who usually make up these studio audiences I already knew the outcome. Too many ignorant and uneducated individuals making up today's British society .
The audience doesn't know how to appreciate his form of dance, I'm thinking a different dance show would've been better for him. 4:41 she made me mad like why say som so ignorant.
How good he was. He was so mystical.
That was absolutely beautiful and I dont understand why people dont appreciate this more. The grace and flow is astounding!
Almost like people prefer twerking over grace? That man could dance for me anytime and I would value that far more than twerking...and I'll bet he can do literally ANY dance
i think it is better to have some twist on this show. Just like how AGT got a golden buzzer. it is like a judge can save a dancer that they think do have a potential just like this person in this video. I think he is technically good however, the showmanship/entertainment and emotion is there but does not make a strong impact.
In the end its not the best dancer who wins. Its the best looking, with a catching story, showing a bit of abs, a bit of curves or the most camp guy in the planet.
Thats the expertise of the audience, not about the technicalities of dance.
Its a show for the masses, not to recognise the best dancers.
Rui Gouveia I really can’t tell if you’re kidding or not lol. Sorry if you are, but you do realize that this show is called “The Greatest Dancer,” right? So it is about finding the best dancer, with the best moves and technique but the audience doesn’t see that because all they want is a flashy performance. Classical dance is still art but some people aren’t cultured enough to see that side of dance. But what’s done is done and the audience is clearly close-minded with art.
@@carolngo8046 Carol did you read my comment properly? Because essentially you just pointed out the same as i did. Its called The Greatest Dancer but decision is left to the public with no culture and professional knowledge of dance.
In the end the winner will be either:
1-a child
2-someone with a touching story
3-a big group with a flashing performance
Doesnt mean they will not be good... but probably not "The Greatest Dancer"
Clearly, this audience did full of people who have no knowledge of dance training or appreciation for the art
His moves his posture his body omg wow I'm blown away I have so much respect for ballet just a beautiful dancer x harder then boring singing
Those people don’t know enough about classic training.
“No we have the power” she sounds insane
He was literally incredible and they have put utter tripe through!!!! Just shows the audience have no idea what they are watching!!! X
He did thirteen pirouettes and didn’t manage to get 75% of the audience to drop their jaws at that performance? I just don’t get what they were seeing because it couldn’t have been the same dancer I was watching. I’d like to say the lady who said it wasn’t exciting enough clearly has no mind to be judging dance. It’s ballet and his technique was beautiful. I’d like to see the audience members attempt even one of the moves in his performance because as someone who has danced for 17 years I know I wouldn’t be able to recreate that routine as elegantly as he did. Thankfully talent hardly goes unnoticed and I’m sure he will be getting lots of recognition soon. Goodluck ❤️
Omg he is amazing so talented and everything was clean and just so good! What the heck people don’t understand how freaking hard ballet is! I’ve danced ballet when I was younger it’s quite hard and pretty physical demanding as well. It takes a lot of practice, technique, and dedication! So sad hope they bring him back or he gets an amazing opportunity!
..... No words.. this is one of the dumbest show ever created.. giving audience all the power? most of them wouldnt know the difference between pirouettes and just spinning around to get dizzy
What a breathtaking performance! To have been in the room watching would have been electric for me. I'm showing this to my son who is taking ballet, jazz, hiphop and ballroom. Total inspiration...
All the people shaking there head and saying no to that guy looked like they've never danced a day in their life.
The power of the uncultured masses
the greatest dancer is what the show is called.. this man was the greatest dancer... the best dancer that has audition so far. i will not what another shit show that keeps the trash and throws the gold away no more. disappointed to be live in the same society as all of those degenerates.
This broke my heart and makes me wanna cry. He was elegant, beyond beautiful and graceful.
That audience is unbelievable!!! Even an untrained eye could see the incredible talent and passion he had. Boooo to that audience booooo!
