I loved him, but he didn't love me. I wanted him, but he didn't want me. Then the gods had a spree and indulged in another whim. Now he loves me, but I don't love him." - Cole Porter

Posted: 9/25/05 at 1:04pmRichard Gere was pretty impressive with what he learned for Chicago. And he did do all of his own tap-dancing. No doubles. That's pretty cool.

Christina Applegate
She trained up until her 20's in Jazz dance. The Charity haters don't like to believe it though.

Um, Sarah Jessica Parker IS a trained dancer.
Raúl Esparza, Alan Cumming, and Michael Ball. Oooh ooh ooh! Michael Cerveris, too. The only time I've ever seen him dance was when he sang Dragon Attack at the Bowery Ballroom, but that man has great rhythm. *sighs*

"Um, Sarah Jessica Parker IS a trained dancer."
Who said she wasn't? She's just not really known for it. She's known as an actress, which is what this thread is about, people who are known primarily as actors, but who can dance.

This site has some MMC music videos with Keri Russell dancing. I warn you, you may pee yourself.
Also, brace yourself for extreme Tony Lucca hotness in the "A Couple Days Off" video.

Oh! I met Tallchief last year for the first time.
She gave me advice while pointing her index finger at me.
What an amazing ballet legend.
