Stairway To Stardom (1985) - Melissa Ann Ledwon - tap dancer

[GrantTarredus]

Would someone please show me where a certain video response to this is? I saw it on YouTube a couple of years ago and now I can't find it. Two young women are having fun watching this while imitating Melissa Ann's moves; they're laughing while they're doing it and it's hilarious. Thanks!

@GrantTarredus Even better . . . do a search for "The Stair Dance To Stardom"!

Air Piano...Ya Blew It

I saw a benefit performance of "They're Playing Our Song" in September 2010. I CRACKED UP LAUGHING at the beginning of Act 2 because the music is literally the same as the first 43 seconds of this "precious" video. I wish Melissa Ann and her tinsel had been there to make the occasion more special.

[helbeluk]

Love the 'Dudek' at 1.46! Hopefully you footie (soccer) fans will know what I'm talking about!

[cawrighty]

Graham Norton brought me here ..........xx

[shadowcity11211]

I wish they would just get to the actual number and not tease us with that opening.

[ichigatsujohn]

Did anyone from Stairway to Stardom ever become famous?

[BroadwayBaby7]

That's not how you play a piano....especially to the scales you're hearing.....

[bobbelmouth]

Her dad is one sick fuck..

[mistertango]

That "kick the dog" move at 1:05 cracks me up every time!

[knuckleheadjones]

Those were NOT the proper notes on the piano.

[muzik4life525]

i hate the 80's

[geniuswaitress]

"Ain't she beautiful!"

[NielsShoe]

WTF is this shit and how did I end up here?

[LivingMindfully1975]

Melissa Ann is now the head cashier at Wal-Mart.

[levivi]

I feel like these were all filmed in someone's living room...

[cowgirlinitalways]

this show, is amazing.

[setpunk12]

look at her go, ladies and gentlemen!

[bedtime4bonzo]

1:59 is the goods

[djsweethots]

longest. intro. ever.

[bedtime4bonzo]

what song is this?

[MrSplenectomy]

I used to play those exact same Hannon piano exercises and they got me nowhere.

Not, like this.........

[lancethrustworthy]

I wonder what she looks like now.

[jgmcgehee]

This woman has been carrying a boom box around with her for years. Some day, somewhere, someone is going to ask her why, and when they do, watch out!

[micksmom2]

Excruciating.

[suginami123]

very vile

[albertotablero]

Mamá orgullosa de ti... apuntándote con una pistola

[disconnectedsmile]

it's like Christmas and the 4th of July condensed into 2 minutes and 40 seconds. a very, very shiny 2 minutes and 40 seconds.

[joesnotdead]

I can't believe all the negative comments, this is seriously the most uplifting and inspirational video of all time. I watch it just to cheer myself up when I'm down or to get amped before a big event or job interview. Everything about it is just amazing. The jazzy, upbeat, music, the flashy outfit, and the light-as-air moves executed with seamless but precise timing. This girl is dynamite!

[emlodik]

Melissa Ann Let Down.

[sirPUNKsir]

And she went on to host America's got talent

[Waletski65]

I think it was the Mentos music, and on a record!

[toemasie]

She's got great wow wear!

[Stereobarf]

That was painful to watch.

[clintallen123]

Is she dancing to the Mentos music?

[tubbymctubsta]

ahahahahahahah

[beatnik995299]

what happened, i thought i had faith in the human race.

[tfpmacheath]

My God, there is nothing about this video that isn't depressing. :(

[sacremende]

I'm not quite sure she knows what a piano is.

[msnisperos]

an abominable misappropriation of Christmas tree tinsel and present bows.

[tterrag72]

Love the shoe bows

[LivingMindfully1975]

Flashy outfit.....lots of dance lessons.....and still no talent.
