Lilly Singh | EVERY DESI WEDDING EVER @LillySingh | Uploaded 1 year ago | Updated 8 hours ago
At least there’s an open bar… 😅❤️ Comment below with a 💃🏽 if you’ve witnessed this first hand. But I ain’t even hating tbh. Dance routines were a KEY part of my upbringing, right up until I started making YouTube videos.
It started when I was super young. My cousin and I had matching star lenghe and were booked and busy! We did routines just like this one at every family party. And when I say, I truly believed I was a superstar… 😂
Then in high school, the intensity turned up with talent shows and international nights. They were treated like life or death. Motivational speeches were made before performances, matching outfits from the local mall were purchased and mixed cds were made in abundance. I remember after performing a specific routine in grade 11, I felt as if I’d completely figured out life… because I completed a 9 minute mediocre routine. There was nothing I couldn’t do!
In university, I started to participate in dance competitions and the stakes couldn’t have been more high for me. I’d practice until 4am with my team in various spots of our school (some nights even finding a random nook to sleep in, so we could start again the next morning). We’d cry during practices because we cared so much about dancing and doing well. And during competition pre-parties, battling with another school and winning was the greatest form of validation ever.
I went on to become the captain of a co-ed bhangra team and we got hired to perform at weddings. We went through it all: bad crowds, great crowds, huge dance floors, tiny dance floors, dance floors covered in broken glass, and costumes that were not washed enough. Those were some good times.
Can any of you relate to dance being such a big part of your life? I think back at those times with such fondness and it immediately makes me smile. And it all started… being the little cousin who performed at a wedding ❤️
