calling them back up dancers is a bit of an insult
Ikr, more like iconic dancers
I agree! 👍 NOTE: These "Handsome & Gracious & Extremely Gifted & Talented Young Men are Fierce Dancer's In Their OWN RIGHT PERIODTT"! They have competed & have been on several dancing shows & platforms Nation Wide, 🌎 prior to dancing with Beyonce who is also "Phenomenal"!!! 💯🔥🦾😲🕺❤️
They can move, slide and glide. The Les Twins are the unique, ultimate dancers who runs the stage.
They are Beyoncé's back up dancers.
Let's see what they can do on their own like her other dancers.
They already had an amazing career before Beyonce and were famous and stellar in their own right. That’s why she hired them. They are extraordinary dancers who do it with passion.
They are so Twinsy I love these brothers such gentle giants
You just finished the Renaissance Tour, how are you feeling?
I miss her already. They are really her "first" twins. 🥺❤️
Their not back up dancers, they're The "Les Twins" who are attendees certified to make her look the best.❤😊
During the World of Dance Competition, one of the twins shuttered a knee I believe and he was in a wheelchair yet they continued to compete performing their incredible choreography…..Les Twins are otherworldly talented🖤⚡️💫✨
The damage wasn't all that...and it was his ankle that was sprung
@@Jocthe1111 OK.....
I believe throughout the whole competition he was the only one that showed injury and they still won the competition
@@Jocthe1111Yet very few would continue to perform with an ankle injury im certain
It was Lau that hurt his leg and ankle. Yet, they keep going and it paid off! they are beautiful people.
The people in these comments did not do their research the Les twins are easily some of the greatest and highest sought after dancers. They won world of dance, host dance shops around the world. Have won multiple dance battles in the undertrained and professional scene. Beyonce did help they get into the use but there name is well known outside of here there not just back up dancers
World of Dance is when I first learned about them and all their performances captivated my perspective of dance and they are the S-tier standard of dancing
They worked hard to be where they are now!! 👑
@Tojoj22 period!
Pure talent ! No gimmicks, no drama! So refreshing.
been a fan of theirs since 2010, it makes me so happy seeing them grow every year 🥹🤍 best dancers in the world!
Ja he
I remember being in France a long time ago and my auntie took me to a dance studio. When I got to the studio to dance, I saw two twins in front of me, (and this was before they were famous) IT WAS THE LES TWINS !!dancing right in front of me in the studio.
I still remember till this day, their dancing was IMPECCABLE, you could just see they were PURE TALENT, they were great dancers then and even greater now, so happy for all their success 🎉 they probably won’t remember me, but I remember them and truly I must say, they’re both INSPIRATIONS.
Just comes to show. DO NOT GIVE UP ON YOUR DREAMS ⭐️✨🎉❤️
That’s so awesome!!
@@LosAngelesLaura I know right !👏🏾🙏🏾
Wow!!! 😀🥰😎
THEY ARE NOT ONLY WELL KNOWN DANCERS, THEY ARE ALSO THE WINNERS OF WORLD OF DANCE, the caption is disrespectful 🛑
Omg and Blu has them to learn from!! Just shut the whole industry down as soon as blue drops her album!!! 😂❤❤
It would be nice if we could see the full interview one day.
So happy to see Les Twins on their life journey. This idea is amazing. In general kids need to be more active... to add the mental health aspect is a brilliant. Wish them all the best.
They super talented and adorable, love them
These are her people! Everyone needs people like this!
Les Twins toujours dans le partage et dans le savoir écouter les autres écouter les gens comprendre avant de parler je suis conquis 👏👏🙏🏼
They are both beautiful people and very nice to look at!!! 😂😂
Love Les Twins! Also I really like the hosts outfit with the green dress, so cute!
Got to meet them in Charlotte
Love them always with great energy ❤❤🎉🎉
This was so much better than what they actual showed on TV.. they could have showed this whole thing
Thank you Les Twins for using you talent to help. ❤
There are not back up dancers to Beyoncé. They are her family. They’ve been dancing with her for 20 years. Correction They are legend dancers.❤
lol no they have been dancing with her for 20years. More like 6
@@richild3967more like 12
THANKS FOR HAVING THEM ON THE SHOW ❣️❣️❣️
They are amazing dancers. Love seeing them on stage. ❤
I love them❤️❤️❤️
The twins have magic 🥴🤌💥😊
LES TWINS ❤💙
LES TWINS DANCE BESIDE HER NOT BEHIND HER!!! I WILL LEAVE THIS STATEMENT EVERYWHERE I SEE … HER BACK UP DANCERS!!! 😤😤😤
La manière dont j'ai criiiiiieeeee quand ils ont sorti le drapeau français à Paris avec écrit SARCELLES dessus !!! De danser dehors a Chatelet au Worlf of Dance et la consecration avec Beyonce ! Ils sont là deeeepuuuiiiss et leur parcours est incroyable !!
The Human Chair ‘AWESOME’ Larry & Laurent keep up good work & inspiring all’ 🥂
TWINNING 👬 😁
Les Twins shouldn’t be minimized to being called Beyoncé’s backup dancers. Yes, that’s what they do but they had a brand long before working for her.
They've also said repeatedly they don't work for her, they work with her. She calls them her featured dancers and not backup dancers. And their names are on the tour/ stage also. She searched for them for years just to work with them.
Seriously..so annoying. That's the media for you 🙃
Les Twins deserves all accolades and more! 👍♥️🙏💕💕💕💕💕
I love how they are ao in synch with each other. Lovely!❤
The dancers are the top of the top in a front part show.
Change the title of this video right now!! Like Beyoncé said herself; these 2 are the first twins in her life! Sooooo ❤
Larry's "where I was?" So very sweet.
FYI It was not Detroit, it was Hamburg, Germany
Thank you, was looking for this comment 😂
I love them!!!
Awesome, love those guys
Lovely twins
Good job, guys. Keep going 👏
They been dancing with Bey since 2013! I have a picture with one of them… So awesome 👏
I love them twins
I love the green dress
Wonderful work Les Twins, we love you so much.All the way from Malawi 🇲🇼
love them
GOD BLESS MY BELOVED TWINS 🥰🥰🥰🥰❣️❣️
Cool interview
Mental health tour I love it love you guys you do work that matters through movement 🤗
Beyonce made them zesty😂. Its the braided hair extensions for me
They braided their hair before Beyoncé's tour and they (especially Laurent) were doing "feminine" moves in the viral 2010 video way before they even met Beyoncé sooo...no
Im so happy and proud of Les Twins!!! 🎉🎉
I’m not a Baal-Yonce fan and don’t care for her music. BUT I love these two world talented dancers-artists. And there vision to help many kids is brilliant especially in these times where arts in the school is pretty much dead.
Aww, I hope you got those brownie points.
🙄
Congrats
They're actually upset because you're not a Beyonce fan. 😂 Sheep are gonna sheep I guess.
@@krazykaye8843if you worship Christ and call people sheep you’re bold lol
Je vous adore les gars ❤❤❤❤
Sorry, but they won the world of dance competition back in 2017. They’ve been dancing for over a 3 decades. Yes, they have been several times Beyoncé‘s back up dancers but they have never been back up dancers for any other artist on a tour. They’ve danced in music videos and Apple commercials but please get your facts right “Les twins” are not back up to dancers. They are artist, designers, actors philanthropist, and most importantly dancers.
Them bad love them❤❤❤❤❤❤
I looove Les Twins!❤
Makes me cry hearing what they’re doing for kids
So glad they chose Mental Health as one of their causes. Stigma is keeping a lot of people from getting help. Let's Talk and heal!
Les Twins ❤️
Les Twins being labeled as "Back up Dancers" is WILD!
Les Twins🎉🤩🤩
Love
Excuse me... just wanted to CORRECT you that referred to 👉 "LESTWINS" 👈 as 👉 backup dancers 👈 They weren't nobodies backup dancers at all... THEY WERE WHO THEY ARE & THAT'S 👉"LESTWINS"👈!!! Tysvm!!!🤗💯👍
They are beyoncé's back up dancers 🙄 when you don't know something please ask!
They said themselves Beyoncé doing life contract with them.
Thank you! They dance alongside Bey... she doesn't even consider them back up dancers. They compliment her side by side
@@leonba1530they are featured dancers not backup.
They are known as her premier dancers!
@@leonba1530 Thee "LESTWINS" themselves had said many times that they weren't her backup dancers!!! So why ask you??? Who are you??? Their daddy??? Nope I don't think so!!! So LARRY had everyone in this world hear from his phone almost 10yrs ago how 👉 J Z & BEY 👈 had introduced them in BEY'S, if I'm not mistaken 1st tour with the twins & BEY said... & HERE ARE "LESTWINS" & J Z did the same!!! Then they came out!!! In this tour did you hear at any time Bey calling them & here are my backup dancers??? Absolutely Not!!! She called them "LESTWINS" & btw... the 👉 LIFE CONTRACT 👈 it's been done!!! Tysvm!!! When I write something down about "LESTWINS" it's bc I literally heard it coming from "LESTWINS" mouths not bc their fans said it or such as you commenters wrote it down!!! Not I !!! SO IF YOU DON'T KNOW SOMETHING... TAKE YOUR OWN ADVICE AND ASK, OK??? Again Tysvm!!! 💯💯💯👍
I need me a pair of Les Twins…
The les twins from freestyle gods to icons now
They arent just her backup dancers.. they're LES TWINS
The twins were already popular but thanks to Beyoncé she gave them a bigger platform that’s why I love my fellow Americans we’re not with that tribal crap as always Americans will level up others careers 😌
God🙏🏽 Bless the twins they’re already doing incredible things.
Good interview!
They were along side Bey! They are Actors as well! International Men in Black, they were the Aliens! In the Movie Cats they were Cats!🎉❤❤
😍
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
2:24 Detroit? It was Hamburg, Germany
les twins part of the syndicate now
should have never linked arms with beyonce now they are industry artists ..
They made a name for themselves in WOD...not to mention they danced with JLO first...they make it seem like Beyonce is the first to do everything
They met Beyoncé in 2013 tho... but yeah they were killing it even before they met her so I still agree.
It’s so disrespectful to call them back up dancers!
Soo disrespectful!!
I agree, although she said one on the left and one on the right
That’s what tf they are though
@@LLaceno they're les twins they just backup dance for beyonce on the side
Finally she said queen Bey & not Bay 🙄🙄
FRANCE. ILL BE THERE SOON. HODA N PRETTY EYES. MATTERS. JESUS. 1
It’s Les Twins thank you very much
Yeah I don't know
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
In no way are these two men back-up dancers. And considering they were on her last tour and have stardom on their own.
4:18 you cannot say! I cannot say!
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ 😂
For the love of Gucci, they are not her backup dancers.That is so annoying. 😤
This is the epitome of the phrase, “blood couldn’t make us more family.”
That did not happen in Detroit it happened overseas. She did not even wear this outfit in Detroit.
True that!Les twins ain't no back up dancers bruh they
SMH LAWWWWWD HAMERCYYYYY
They dance with Beyoncé not for her! 😉
Milly venally
They are Dancers that dance with Artists. They are bot back up dancers. Say it right lady!!
They have worked with so many children and have there own studio by working hard.
Do not insult these talented dancers Les Twins.
I just want to know how to tell them apart lol ?!
Dance styles
Longer hair = longer name
Short hair =short name
Also Laurent gives off a more "harder" vibe like Tia And Larry is "softer", giving Tamera vibes
watch almost all of their video's and with time you can even tell by their face lol!
Laurent's face is slightly thinner and Larry has a tiny scar on the left above his lip. It's kinda hard to see with the mustache though. Also their dance styles are different.
Change the title !
36 shows in 39 cities ? How ? 😑😑😑
This was great, but Im going to challenge who invented the human chair. It may have been them (if they did it before the Renaissance Tour); otherwise, it was the Alcorn State University Drum Majors.
Yeah, they definitely did it before the tour. They participated in a competition a few years ago "World of dance" and they'd already performed it there.
They got it from somewhere I just don't know where, they've been doing it since 2009. Probably the drummers like you were saying
They been doing it since there were kids, look on youtube circa 2005-2007. They were well-known underground street dancers around the world before they was 16. America was late to the party, That's why some dancers call them legends. It wasn't over night for them two. Also they didn't know much about America enough to know Alcorn, because they even learned who MJ was later in life-- they were extremly poor, and lived in a commune with no TV. They need a movie.
I know the big secret now.😔
Beyoncé's talented collaborative team. Anyway, Les Twins are definitely making an impact on mental health and how to utilize dance and creativity to break down stigmas and deal with issues concerning mental healing. Love Les Twins❤❤❤❤ @officiallestwins
I love les twins. I'm sure they have me a lot of money in their life especially before dealing with Beyonce so that's totally you know their judgment call but I pray for them that they don't fall victim of circumstance by messing with this demon
The wardrobe malfunction did not happen in Detroit 🤦🏿♀️
