Sugar Plum Fairy

[cutienaiya]

did something similar for a recital in december. we did the barbie version i was klara/sugar plum princess. been those two roles for the past 4 going on 5 years any ballet we do i get the lead. but i say i want other people to have them but idky i always end up with them

[AllEvens98]

It was my dream to dance this when I was really little....

[azazelahh]

she is just incredible!

[starkid814]

I'm not 100% sure, but I think this is the video (we watched the whole ballet) my music teacher in elementary school showed us every Christmas!!!

[TheMusicCrazyMe]

wow

[thedancerchicxoxo]

This is so beautiful...I'm a dancer and sometimes I feel like just quitting, but watching things like this is what keeps me motivated. This is my goal. <3

[lmnllouis]

I find it so cringy watching her on her tip toes,to many times have i seen people break their toes attempting this!

[iRideMagikarp]

My right ear feels left out :(

[meowsloud]

Makes her feel better about herself that she's 'broadening her horizons?!'

[910miran]

Same Thing We Do In Our Nutcracker Every Year :)

[horsefucker1680]

The girl is beautyful.

[tamiybp]

@LauravickyCupyCake ditto :).

Dubstep, techno, pop, RAP, and....Tchaikovsky :)

[YummyChoccy]

WOW

[LilyMoth12]

probably tchaikovsky's most famous piece...

[czarssalad]

my daughter wants me to buy that dress for her :p

[elmundodeFreeman]

creeeeepy.

[littlecheeekyallli]

@elmundodeFreeman how so?

[msskool]

Ballet is HARD

[usabritcouple]

Watching this preformance, quite literally took me in and swept me away from reality. So much so, that I found myself on my tip toes, dancing around fixing my children some lunch. Absolutely beautiful to behold!

[Epiphanyartist88]

closest thing to the best i've found so far muy bueno

[RacbecSkywalker]

The dance becomes even more awesome with the snowflake button.

[helenlovespaul]

so beautiful and graceful, just perfect

[fifig10]

I'm 25, so what ?

[missbraceface101]

I am 14 and just learned this dance last night on pointe. Its so much harder then she makes it look but my teacher just kept pushing me so i hope one day i can be a part of this.

[michifushorus]

i love this.. but i'm 18 so i don't think i can dance like this haha.. :( ooh well

[olexia07]

I always wished to be a ballet dancer, I love everything about it but I'm 22 and don't exactly have the body type lol. So I will just continue to watch these videos and hope to see a show one day and fawn over how amazing it is.

[dissectedmemories87]

When I was 6 I got to audition to be a sugar plum fairy, hardest thing next to having kids! three hours of movement exercises and dancing. One of the best moments in my life! Didn't make the cut, but it was worth it!

[katiemollyhaley]

ahh 240p we meet again

[skrupnyk]

@katiemollyhaley

watch?v=EQBFhaRFPIk

480p

[AliceRunsWithHobos]

God, I love this so much.

I'm so glad I have been dancing ballet for fours years now; and I'll probably keep dancing it till I die <3

[affy7ann]

Beautiful! I wish I could dance this, too, someday. ♥

[TaytaWindowHops]

@captainjinks1 I wear skinny jeans almost every day, tight tshirts, and neon pink dc's; I listen to alternative and rock; I own and play Black Ops and MW3; I am 14;

I am a ballerina. (:

You don't have to be girly to dance. . . You just have to have the passion inside you. I'd say go for it if you really want to (;

[theresajasper]

Amazing !! Absolutely heavenly !

[videoteando]

I rather than dance is am playing this piano I would LOVE to some day be a part of this

[justbill86]

i don't know why but my toes hurt after watching this!

[captainjinks1]

I'm a teenager, I wear jeans everyday, I listen to rock, I live in a small town with no opportunities, and I want to be a ballerina.

[hermionecortez]

@captainjinks1 so go for it! don't let yourself regret it later <3

[MegaCutex1]

I am starting ballet so i cant wait to dance swiftly as these ballerinas :) xxx

[miyelleSEJI]

This is why... when I have a girl, I will make her become a ballerina. And when she says she wants to quit, I'll show her this. :)

[2g00d4u1994]

God, whenever I watch a ballerina, I can't help think how bad their toes feel. ick.

[ssfzz]

where's the sound?

[cutiebopper]

fanominal

[thestarbuckslove1]

51 people are jelous.

[thestarbuckslove1]

i use to see all of these girls dancee and i get sad because im not themm!! so i decided to become a ballerina, i've been 3 months in it and its WONDERFULL i cant wait to get my ponties!! or however u write it!! <3

[windstorm1000]

transported to a fairy world--taking a well deserved break from the news, grumbling et! You too-enjoy!

[21pinkpolish]

Wow. So graceful and beautiful. I love how every move she makes goes with the song!

[Spazyjane101]

@21pinkpolish. thats because this song and the moves were made to be together. the steps were made for the song and the song was made for the steps

[ANBUspecialBlackops]

one of my friends called ballerinas fags....i asked him to hold 150lbs of himself on the tips of his feet.....the hospital was the next place we visited. lawl

[Alliciatwilight]

After seeing black swan, the only thing I can see in ballet is competition o.o....

[vfsGatica]

@Alliciatwilight that's with anything though. i do see a different side of how they stave themselves thought because of that movie

[laurana99]

@Alliciatwilight Oh it's there all right . My 10 year old is in the thick of it .

[Simsker]

If I did that I bet my feet would have broken already!Sometimes I wished that I could turn back time and learn ballet when I was young,since I was always such a tomboy when I was not into ballet,tiaras,and tutus .But now that I've seen how beautiful they could dance,Im completely in awe.They're just so graceful and beautiful!:D

[ionoMyName]

that is a freaken good dancer -o-

[211naem]

is she gonna sick!? 1:51

[purpledancinyogo]

sooo light on her feet.... beautiful

[EJRRULE]

last year i was the surger plums asstiant with one of my bff

[LauravickyCupyCake]

I am a teenager. I listen to dubstep and pop. I wear jeans almost everyday of my life. I can't help but adore this! I listen to this song every christmas and whenever I see the ballerinas dance like this I am not jealous, but mesmerized. Incredible performance. Bravo

[jennamazur]

@LauravickyCupyCake Why don't you join ballet? It is such a wonderful expierience, I am sure you would enjoy it immensely.

[lucripet]

@LauravickyCupyCake Laura, This is one of many wonderful opera ballets. This music will never be forgotten.

[DBSaiyanTim777]

@LauravickyCupyCake Watch out guys, we´re dealing with a badass over here (dubstep and gaypop doesn't go together)!

[LovableChaos]

@LauravickyCupyCake THANK YOU. See guys? not all of us teens are stupid!

[vilius1990savickas]

@LauravickyCupyCake duude im exacrtly same:P

[makaronas202]

@LauravickyCupyCake what does being a teenager listening to pop and dubstep and wearing jeans has to do with liking or not liking this masterpeace?? what you think all of the million viewers on this video are conservative never wear jeans and listen only to the classical music :D

[lucripet]

@LauravickyCupyCake I am an oldster. I don't know who dubstep is but and still do listen to pop. I am mesmerized and very pleased to hear of someone so young expressing this emotion.

[itisonlyme1]

@lucripet  Dubstep is a type of music not a artist.

[pointe51197]

They make pointe look so effortless!!!!!!

[sorcelier]

Même haujourd'hui c'est toujours aussi magnifique.

[breyergirl2011]

wow how does she stay up soôoooooo long

[twilightntitanicluvr]

So much skill and preparation must have gone into this dance because she was amazing, so graceful and elegant! I really wish i was as brilliant dancer as this russian lady...BRILLIANT!thumbs up if you agree

[cornflkgrl]

Incredible skill. I do wonder what happens to these prima's feet when they are done with their ballet careers though. Can they walk? I have arthritis in my toes and foot problems from a very short 8-10 years of ballet as a kid. I have to wonder what 20+ years en pointe does to someone's feet. Just a thought as I see her hopping on her toes...OW.

[IchigoMali]

She looks like a giant amazonian Sugar Plum... O_o I can't stop watching...

[SmallSocietyIssues1]

What really amazes me about this is that every time you pause the video, no matter what position she's in, you can always see that she has perfect posture, and her arms and legs are always in the right position. It's so indescribably amazing how perfect this is.

[ashellokitty]

u can sooo see the ballerinas in the background talking ish while she's bowing lol. but that girl was incredible

[HyvesTVShows1]

Hola estúpidos de mierd* todo el mundo os odia porque sois asquerosos

[criticona10]

47 people don't know anything about culture

[blueberry15190]

The pictures in the back were moving *0*

[clashhgrrl]

and this is why I want to have the role of the Sugar Plum Fairy, not Clara! :)

[qwert826Y]

I think my first appreciation of classical music came from Ren & Stimpy. See- animated cartoons DO have cultural worth!

[jerbearonly]

Sounds so much like Danny Elfman. :)

[coltsanimelover]

She's great and fabulous dancing and all!... but I'm confused, why are her bourees open? O.o

[americangirlfan22]

HOW DO PPL WALK LIKE THAT?!?!

[chaparra2829]

This piece always reminds of own of my ballet classmates, she's the best dancer I haver met...and this charecter fits so perfectly on her...

[AnneAlba1]

This . . . . . will never get old.

[lindsaypuchalski]

soooooo graceful! haha

[lindsaypuchalski]

she is such a wonderful dancer!!!!!!!! i love this production!!!! great job!

[rockitsmile]

she's very graceful, lol i remember when i was little this music scared the crap outta me

[tzenka]

She is amazing.

[Iloxidophine]

so könnte ich nie laufen!!!

[thetews2010]

1 word...........daaaaaaaaaaaaaa­annnnnnnnnnnnnnnnggggggggggg

[galysse]

dayuummmmmmmmmmmm

[VallejosAndy]

Oh God, it's so beautiful. She looks like a real fairy, i can imagine at all. i don't how can exist people how can't understand things like that.

[MissZumba100]

she made that look as easy as a stroll in the park.....

[allyboop199]

I need to post a vid of me doing this dance you guys would luv it...... I do think she's a good dancer though :)

[MsPuppylove1995]

love ballet

[BrieHines1]

this is just amazing i did ballet when i was younger and quit and every day i regret it this is pure art!!!

[horrorcomedy13]

i freaked out when i saw someone at the back movie -_- :P

[selenagomez8050]

Luv luv luv this video!!!:

[julie101rox]

i think she looks beautiful

[1000existences]

Dear god, she looks so graceful, light as a feather, and delicate as glass.

I respect her so much, just looking at the tip of her toe hurts my toes haha

[VeryMadGurl]

@1000existences yeah, ive been doing pointe work for almost a year now and i can barely balance without a barre let alone do what she's doing!

[Nadeygirl]

Oh My Gosh... She is so pretty and graceful. Alot of hardwork in this...

[MaggieLepe]

I can't hear it.

[rollingcherries]

This is beautiful! My name is Anny too.

[bunnylove2001]

i love the song

[lala102197]

she is so gorgeous when she dances. she doesnt even seem to struggle

[babababaduba]

the music is great, the dance is quite stupid

[ianghersi]

which production is this? id like to find a dvd or something

[annydancer]

@ianghersi I'm sorry, but I really don't know that... :(

[selenagomez8050]

@ianghersi Same

[Shleoss]

@ianghersi I think it is the Ballet Company of the Mariinsky Theater.

[Araignee92LM]

@ianghersi

find "Nutcracker Kirov 1994"

Larissa Lezhina Victor Baranov Victor Fedotov ;)

[Cheerbabeforeverable]

@ianghersi Kirov Ballet- Nutcracker 1993 :)

[thedyingswan11]

@ianghersi its the mariinsky ballet nutcracker production

[DuckCreepyDalle]

@ianghersi Kirov ballet in Mariinsky's Teather :)

[kinlol]

@ianghersi i believe this variation is kirov...

[caxalinka]

@ianghersi

1994 Kirov Balet - THE BEST OF THE BEST OF THE BEST OF THE BEST!

[Liv2Dance22]

@ianghersi this is in the kirov if you look up the nutcracker on netflix you'll find this

[kirrtaiteilija]

@ianghersi It's the Kirov Ballet, and it was at some point in 1994 on DVD. I'm not sure if they sell it anymore though.

[Sofcule78]

@ianghersi Here's some info:

Tchaikovsky - The Nutcracker (1994)

Larissa Lezhnina (Actor), Victor Baranov (Actor), Victor Fedotov (Director)

It's available on Amazon

[ilovetheshaytardsfam]

@ianghersi i think its from The Nutcracker 1993

[dyingpassion1]

No one can beat a Russian ballerina they are just amazing, so perfectly tall and they start from such early ages and have perfect discipline.

[CookieandCupcakes29]

@dyingpassion1 ikr? but no one can beat asians in academics XD rite? sorry thats a stereotype...

[BashfulTrash]

0:54 - 1:07 So beautiful!!! How does she do that???

[ballerinamama]

@BashfulTrash I so agree! It is amazing and mind blowing!!! :D

[antongilde]

BEST VARIATION EVER! :D

[TheBabycakes789]

simply the most beautiful video in the world x

[RoseyyRedCheeks]

I have been doing ballet for 10 years and trust me its so much harder than it look!!

[drydragons]

oh my gawd

[kissmeifuwant2]

I've been dancing ballet for 9 and a half years now and I've been en pointe for about 2 and most of this stuff is very advanced and when I try to do it, it looks terrible, but she makes it look so easy and amazing! I'm so jelous!

[janiakowska]

the greatest sugar plum fairy ever!

[milzz95]

this is so beautiful. i wish i started ballet at a young age ! i am on my point now and i've been doing ballet for two years but i wish i started earlier so i could be long and lean, i am lean but i wish i looked like her. she dances like an angel. complete perfection ! i cried watching this !

[redvelvetsweetness]

ballerinas... they defy the rules of physics and the law of gravity

[eyewristchin]

I have been dancing ballet for 17 years, and let me tell you.. pointe shoes are THE MOST painful things you could ever wear on your toes. Much less JUMP on the tippytoes. She makes it look SO EASY but omg... people need to understand how hard it is to actually get to that skill level!

[allemagneish]

How cd she walk on her toes?!

[101dancerdiva]

OBVIOUSLY 39 people need glasses.

[XPrincess30]

beautiful dance! I love ballet but from my experience ballerinas aren't the best people /:

[TheRobyanna]

ma la musica parte dp 1 ora

[annydancer]

@TheRobyanna Semplicemente all'inizio è molto bassa, ma c'è :)

[survivingsushi197]

I am like addicted to this tune it's always stuck in my head

[pandbaby]

she is wonderful! and i agree ive been doing ballet for 13 years and it is HARD think you can do it? give it a try. but your in for a rude awakening if you think its as easy as it looks

[Whyville101]

@xSkylaN627x Larissa Lezhnina its in the description

[thehypercookie]

I will never think of ballet the same way after seeing Black Swan...

[Lucyballet1994]

@thehypercookie Black swan is totally inaccurate though, it doesn't represent the world of ballet at all, don't believe the hollywood representations!

[superblond52]

@Lucyballet1994 black swan does though go deep into the mind of a perfectionist,which in ballet with that kind of leading role is what you would need. you are correct with the black swan not being anything like a real company but it does get into the mind

[catz4ever100]

she is so graceful and she dances so well!

[unoiamacutie]

1:50- 1:52 is amazing!

[fruitbasket97539]

i want her figure :( and shes stunning i wish i could dance like that

[colorfulaurora93]

i cant believe she is real, her dancing , her movements, everything looked graceful

as if she was a doll .. i wish i saw the performance live

[JayC4shaw]

I can't here the music :(

[xMOntanaa]

37 people dont know what beauty is.

[postmodernhousewife]

"one cannot share wonder, only show its objects".....

[fantaseagirl7]

damn... she's the BOSSS!!:D

[edwardskrista96]

She is a beautiful dancer, but I sort of dislike the choreography. At some parts she has bent legs, and the sugar plum fair is a very prestigious role. All in all though it was beautiful. Just maybe not her role.

[jammy123321123]

Wowh. In awe, and respect to this beautiful art.

[xSkylaN627x]

does anybody knows her name? I want to put her pictures in my room...

[jewelsheartsmakeup]

@00bella People always ask me after a show, " How do you dance on your tippie toes? " It's a discipline that takes practice to master so I wish that everyone would respect dance more.

[equusdancer914]

so amazing. true grace and beauty

[RozennKaulitz]

this is so beautiful (: <3

btw can't some people actually enjoy something without talking or comparing it to something else? this is a ballet video not a pop video.

and those pop stars, they earn money for giving fun. do you know what I mean? so both are actually great to enjoy, the only thing is the REAL art actually requires more talent and hardwork. (:

[selenagomez8050]

@RozennKaulitz  Your sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oo right!!!!!!!

[tiago3m]

fantastic...... I'm writing a ballet and I started after listening to this brilliant piece. I appreciated if you hear :). /watch?v=dwStlJxVcOQ

[sasora100]

thats legit hell on ur toes



[SpottyBlueSheep]

Always wanted to do ballet...ended up doing belly dance instead XD

It's so graceful, and you can see all the training that's gone into it.

Beautiful, thanks for posting :) x

[BalletBeauty97]

I want to be her...

[austone151]

I was playing Portal tetris and it was playin this song and I was like "WHAT IS IT!?" Then I remembered my violin books and remembered it might be this and I looked it up and I won.

[he3rtbrok3n]

i cant believe people would rather watch justin gay head than ballet. imagine how that girl's feet are? they are on fire! her feet wont stop hurting because ballet is a serious, elegant dance

[danyfantom100]

I would love to be able to do that lol
