Cell Block Tango from "Chicago"

[KaristaSwiss]

interesting fact :)

During the Cell Block Tango, each girl does an imitation of their crime, each in session using a red silk bandanna to imitate where the blood would have been. However, when Hunyak is speaking, she pulls out a white bandanna, not a red one, indicating that, she is, in fact, innocent.

[tangobuenosaires]

I'll perform Bernie, so wanted to see how he does it in the movie. Thanks for the sharing ;)

[09sumer09]

this dance was sexy (that means i liked it alot)

[knaliprice97]

@niggerhunter2011 racist mf

[Casundia]

Thumbs up if you wanna deck everyone who says "Thumbs up if the Nostalgia Critic sent you here."

[morgaknight]

what does the black woman mean when she says "squish" ? because i get her story but....i'm so confused!

[sillystringification]

@morgaknight because its the sound that a knife makes when going through a person haha

[deallerliefste100]

253 people have it comming...

[McKenaMars]

[AnimeDreamer141]

The only thing wrong about this is that there is no HQ version...

[lizzielollipop816]

Ohh memories.. :)

[loveangl2011]

im pissed at them killing hunkah

[laceter94]

If I knew prison was this fun, I would have been there YEARS ago!

[mathclubgirl]

So I fired two warning shots, into his head.

He ran into my knife, he ran into my knife ten times.

[superbabygrrl27]

[fearless9781]

All who dislike this vid are definately guys XD

[chloexjayne]

[puffchild]

She says squish because her murder was a stabbing.

[XxjamuxX]

When the Hell does the black lady say suish in her monalouge I've always wondered that I know all the words lol

[TheKristinae7]

haha this is hilarious!!!!!

[samnicholsonlikesyt]

fantastic song. Brilliant musical.

[dancexsingxparty]

stop at 1:21 her chin is groosss.

[GrowlitheProduction1]

Dang, I wish I could dance like that!:O

[LoveandPeace414]

I get why all the girls say their one word like pop and six, but I don't get why the third says squish?

[GrowlitheProduction1]

@LoveandPeace414 I'm wondering that too... I know that when she says her part at the beginning she squeezes the bars of her cell...

[candybear012]

@LoveandPeace414 the i gess thats the sound when u stabbed a man ten times

but she sould of said milk

[loveislovely123]

is the lipshit girl mya the singer?

[Finstabaybee]

@loveislovely123

yes

[Tiffsaurusrex]

Girl at 2:39 is way too skinny.. xD The one at 4:45... well let's just say I want to be as sexy as that when i'm older.

[carmendreamers]

251 people had it coming

[pissedoffprincess345]

Some girls did this at the talent show

They got into some trouble because they did the actual choreoraphy (did I spell that right) from 2:57-3:19 and literally dry-humped her partner

Audience reaction=EPIC

They also did Hunyak's part in English. While this was obviously done because the average person does not know the language it was done in, halfway through the song I told my friend (who was sitting next to me) that unless one of them starting singing in Hungarian, I wouldn't be impressed.

[JeanieSmith1001]

I love this movie and this song just completes it!

[TheBaileyjo143]

Thanks for the translation!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[ReneeC43]

Best scene in the movie ;) Thanks for the translation!

[XoXSpunkyRooXoX]

Then the Replay button ran into my mouse. It ran into my mouse ten times.

[123789cheese]

@XoXSpunkyRooXoX It deserved it. It's connected to an awesome song.

[hdy84]

I am sure some people think this is probably a "woman's empowerment" video and very "motivational."

[MaddieandCazz]

LOL imagine that! A black woman makin' chicken! XD

[katolovesyou]

lovelovelove

[bregly37]

who speaks russian so they can tell me what she said

[winterbaby1213]

@bregly37 its in the video description!!! :P

[Marsellilas]

@bregly37 Hungarian!!

It's in the author's note.

[MoDaSocrates]

Why in the holy mother of Hell is Katy Perry's "Firework" at the top of the recommended list?!

[simpledudeable]

4 million views?! That can't be right!

I watched this at least 15 million times!

[ShiverHedgehog]

i play velma so i feel your pain

[danimartins88]

11 years later and i still love this movie

[east1012000]

she wld say she was cooking chicken..lol! =)

[Undertaker215]

I do not think she was pregnant during this part of the movie. she is smoking.

[kckinsmcg]

The woman who played Velma was pregnant when she did this.

[TopsieTurviez]

@kckinsmcg really? thats hardcore...

[beccaruna]

my friend is having this movie has her theme for her birthday and i get to be the "Pop" Girl in this song and sing her part i'm really excited.. haha two warning shots right into his head.

[KasumiXSora]

thanks for the translation i was curious to see what she said

[carmendreamers]

@KasumiXSora do u think she was really guilty?

[KasumiXSora]

@carmendreamers well she seems really sad and there were tears in her eyes. pluse why would she lie to other killers? i think she is not guilty. but its hard to tell

[carmendreamers]

Dude I want the guts those girls have! Tell My man he has it coming! 

[mrhika1]

i fired 2 warning shots ...into his head. I thought u were suppose to live with warning shots.

[animefreakculicious2]

@mrhika1 That's the joke...

[QuikVidGuy]

5:06 - Get on the floor. Everyone walk the dinosaur!

[TomKennyIsLovely]

This is art.

[allamericangirl28]

 i think i counted about 56 "he/they had it coming"

[22loralie1]

If you look at the guy that is dancing with the pop girl, while shes talking, he's chewing gum.

[DiamondDancerForever]

@22loralie1 duh haha 

[everexefe17]

@22loralie1 he is

[Emerald2Angel]

@22loralie1 i belive thatw as the point

[davinegun]

@22loralie1

[allamericangirl28]

[minnie481]

[minnie481]

@minnie481 nevermindd!

[sarizonana]

Catherine Zeta Jones was so great

she tottaly deserved hre oscar for Role in this movie

[killcomputer]

I wish I could sing well.

I would belt this song during Bele Chere, probably.

[iliveinthetwilight]

such amazing raw sexuality. beautiful.

[jahangirhussain1]

How did roxie understand what the Hunyak was saying? she says"yea, but did u do it?"

[Franz2099]

@jahangirhussain1 Probably it is implied that Hunyak has told the story in her broken English in other occasions. All the other women are shown telling parts of the story in "cell life" clips all along the video.

[QuackersJackers]

hey, they had it coming!

[JazzFalco]

5:14 SYMBOLISOM!!

[JazzFalco]

lol @ 2:17 i keep expecting Filmbrain to pop up throw up his arms and say SYMBOLISOM!

[coolgems1630]

"he ran into my kife. He ran into my knife ten times" Never mess with a black woman when she has a knife.

[Eris474]

@coolgems1630 u got that right... just dont mess with black women period!

[coolgems1630]

@Eris474 oh trust me i know. ima black woman myself. but for some reason..... we really like knives.

[Eris474]

@coolgems1630 yes... yes we do! i dont know why. but thats ok as long as our men know that everything is ok XD

[pissedoffprincess345]

@coolgems1630

Correction: Never mess with a woman who can justify her murder and not feel a shred of guilt.

[coolgems1630]

@pissedoffprincess345 lets just say never mess with a woman period. Cause if you mess with her long enoughj she'll either kill you, do something that'll make you wish u were dead, or scare the shit out of you. or some kind of combination

[Eris474]

@coolgems1630 true dat. women can be very scary. and i should know im a women and i scare myself with my thoughts. *shiver*

[PeppyCrazy]

"It was a murder but not a crime!"

[naomiiwhite]

i said "if you pop that gum one more time" and he did

[jardini0]

you know some guys just can't hold their arsenic.

love that line 

[bushranger1949]

A gathering of some of the best talent in the world.

[ianswertocara]

249 had it coming 

[GothicItalia]

@32paperclip awesome!!!!! love this musical

[WiresAndCallouses]

This scene is just so fantastically choreographed. It's nothing short of amazing.

[rockclimber21]

@buizel1997

no- Christina Hendricks played Saffron/Yolanda/Bridgett from firefly. (but wouldn't that be cool if she was in Chicago too?)

[362led]

love it death

[ilovefluffyclariza]

ohhhh i get it now! thanks ^_^

[TheaterMarine88]

I think this is a mix of tango and paso doble. Am I wrong?

[GothicItalia]

Some guys just can't hold their arsenic... STORY OF MY LIFE! lol jkjk

[Zigblat]

"I took the shotgun down from the wall and I fired two warning shots --- into his head."

[TheTrevamarie]

you pop that gum one more time, (sigh) and he did.

he ran into my knife....he ran into my knife 10 times.............best parts of the whole song lol

[MissSmiley613]

Its my dream role to play one of these girls in a Chicago production!! (:

[ilovefluffyclariza]

for the last gurl wht did the guy do wrong i didnt realy understand :p

[Bloodpenguin123]

@ilovefluffyclariza (temporarily stole bf's youtube) Lipshitz? The very last one right? Basicly she was with him but when ever he went out to "find himself", he cheated on her with Ruth, Gladas, Rose Mary, and Irving. That help?

[greengirl206]

@ilovefluffyclariza He slept with the other women mentioned...

[Tewksburychickk]

@ilovefluffyclariza i think he cheatedd on herrr

[XblamXitsXsidneyX]

So just to make sure....everybody pulled out a red handkerchief thingy except for the Hungarian girl because unlike everyone else, she actually didn't kill her husband, right?

[otaku876]

@XblamXitsXsidneyX actually, at 4:31 you can see her pulling a red handkerchief out from behind the head of the guy she danced with—and she had allegedly beheaded her husband.

Though to be honest, I'm not entirely sure myself if she killed him or if it was just part of the dance... it's confusing.

[XblamXitsXsidneyX]

@otaku876 noo it was white lolz....at first i thought it was red too but then i saw that it was only the red lighting that made it look red because it was so transparent, but its a white hankie...look at it when the red light cuts off

[animemusicmonklover]

@otaku876 the white handkerchief symbolizes that she is innocent unlike all the other girls

[jravage77]

AWESOOOOMMMMEE!!!!

[tiffibear123]

248 clearly would not have done the same

[winterbaby1213]

why is the 3rd one squish?? she has a knife, home , her husband and the milk man where does squish come in

[amusified]

@winterbaby1213 i thought that too, maybe squish is the noise it makes when someone runs into your knife

[HeArTxs0lE]

@winterbaby1213..probably repeatedly stabbing into someone's heart.

..or so I've heard.

[TopsieTurviez]

@winterbaby1213 she stabbed him 10 times, after the first few times you stab someone it starts getting a bit... squishy

[winterbaby1213]

@TopsieTurviez o ok lol thanks for the...mental picture...jk!

[madie435]

so i fired 2 warning shots... into his head.

single? single my ass. ya know? some guys just can't hold their arsenic.

and he ran into my knife... he ran into my knife 10 times.

unh-uh. not. guilty.

doing number 17. the spread eagle. and it wasn't till later i was washing the blood off my hands i even knew they were dead.

i gues you could say we broke up because of artistic differences. he saw himself alive. and i saw him dead.

[XLilXTweakX]

I have a feelign all these girls are actual show girls :D

[MRAWE5OME]

this is bad...im a guy and i have these lyrics memorized XD

[XblamXitsXsidneyX]

@MRAWE5OME so do i lmfaooo

[GothicItalia]

@MRAWE5OME more like frikin awesome!

[karlycriss]

omg i love this song and dance im gonna learn it xD

[SnowballPlanet]

"He had six wives. One of those Mormons you know?" Oh my! XD

[drkbks]

Pop was my favorite dancer, Cicero was my favorite singer.

[Spock356]

Someone else who hates gum popping! I absolutely despise having to sit in school all day and listen to a bunch of idiots chomping gum with their mouths open and popping it all the time....

[n1g3ld34c0n]

I saw a performance of this at Hobart College... where I'm headed next year.

[utkitkatz]

248+ people had it coming

[tuna519]

the first one is a confirmed psycho LOOOOL 

[titch114]

Anyone else see the girl push the other girl at 1:31 :L

[evagelina123]

i dislike the school dance performers, there NOT that good as the original dancers and if you say "SHUT UP YOU SUCk" or if your a troll. SHUT up MY opanian = =* Ok HATE people like ok. and people have their own opanian ok = +*

[krista5500]

@evagelina123 haha you spelled opinion wrong. twice. sorry you had it coming.

[wasabiluver]

@evagelina123 Just out of curiosity -- what's an "opanian" you dipshit? And may I say -- "they're" is not the same as "there", and "you're" is not the same as "your".

So don't give anybody else any shit until you can learn to write.

[niggerhunter2011]

@evagelina123 it's opinion, not opinian and it's you're a troll, not your a troll. But when someone never graduated from high school, what else can one expect? Get an education.

[iTaeProductionz]

why did the squish girl SAY squish?

[sunnygirl925]

@iTaeProductionz um...im guessing the sound the husband made running into her knife?

[Fitzy101ful]

@ 1:57 who chews gum while they drink beer?!?!?! L.M.F.A.O

[nicolemar196]

this is my fav song from the musical. its awesome :D i love this musical

[kells1996]

my school did a preformance of this for a show it was ten times better than this

[ShayShayLaRae]

@kells1996 doubtful

[ChicagoSouthDan]

@kells1996 Yes, high school performances are always ten times better than professional performances. Do you have a video you can post?

[DefyingGravityOz]

Such an awesome song!

[rockinamber18]

rate if you saw this and came here because of the nostalgia critic

[Moonshimmer1814]

That Cisoro chick is a bad ass powerful singer. And thatnks to you Im going to drive my sister INSANE with this!!!!!! So from me thank you from her I HATE you !!

[controlessgirl]

@Moonshimmer1814 The Cicero chick? Velma? I agree. :) That's Catherine Zeta-Jones, the best actress in this entire movie in my opinoin. She earned an Oscar from this movie.

[kaitydancer1]

I love the choking sound the guy makes at 6:26 lol

[KamyKiushy]

He had it coming

He had it coming

He only had himself to blame

If you'd have been there

If you'd have seen it

I betcha you would have done the same!

------

i would do the same...muahaha

[aimz4132]

Catherine AKA Velma was pregnant when they filmed Chicago and she was still able to dance like that. thats just brilliant

[emmb99]

Maybe the police didnt understand cause u were speaking hungarian... Just a thought...

[LaVintageMachine]

Really? Because someone popped their gum. REALLY?

[Schauma02]

@LaVintageMachine Understand, she was irritated.. ;)

[LolitaDoll17]

At 5:28 to 5:41 proves the geico commercial wrong. You CAN tango with 3 people. XD

[MrPrincessCharming]

hey monikaNtiff maybe others haven't seen it yet lol but i LOVE that movie thanx i got my fix of this movie now lol

[jhp0725]

Best. Thing. Ever.

[0Candyprincess0]

I LOvE this song it's like the only song I like from the move X3 I'd dance to this anytime or anyplace

[luv4dalittlemermaid]

246 people had it coming

[sdgodess]

Velma was played by Catherine Zeta Jones.

The one I liked was "He ran into my knife ten times." That was powerful.

[EuphrasieF]

Ruth, Gladys, Rosemary... and Irving?

I guess cheating with another man was the last straw...

[Katie4izes]

What did the Hungarian girl say?

[EuphrasieF]

@Katie4izes

Read the description!

[Katie4izes]

@EuphrasieF Hehe, I saw the description after i posted this :P. Thanks though

[Singer4life198]

Umm hello shes not just the cicero girl shes the velma kelly she is one of the main roles obviously u dont know this movie very well

[YukiFanClubGirl]

Did anyone notice the hungarian get pushed at the begining?

[paspetiteprincesse]

Great song! (The guy's name is Al Lipschitz.)

[heartoftheocean100]

Hell has no fury like a girl annoyed by your gum chewing lol

[gmaf34]

i found this very easy to masturbate to

[iwishiwuzbella]

cicero is my favorite. she is so dramatic!

[SyrusGX]

I think the Cicero girl is my favourite. :) 

[Puntig]

I like it when the hungarian girl pulls out a white handcerchief, instead of a read one. Nice detail (:

[emmy5772]

I absolutly love this!!!
