How you doin?



[Helenem55]

But...ITS THE SAME DANCE the Fly Girls do on EVERY opening sequence of Living Color. Good dance, however, its gets kind of repetitious after 5=10 shows of the SAME CHOREOGRAPY. Need more imagination to be a successful dancer, sorry rosie.

[adriannippy]

@Helenem55 Rosie is world famous. I cant say the same for you .

[babybashwife4life]

best intro to a movie

[2950bella]

lol dats my cuzin :D lol

[DavySupafried]

She was so fucking sexy back then. WTF HAPPENED!?!

[2sassyforya]

@DavySupafried ummm 20 years later happen, She has to be close to 45/50 now..

[DavySupafried]

@2sassyforya lol Mariah Carey is about the same age and she still fine as a muhfucka

[beloit22]

@DavySupafried You cant talk?!! Have you LOOKED AT YOUR OWN PICTURE?!! YOU GOOFY-LOOKIN'-MOTHA-FUKKA!

[DavySupafried]

@beloit22 lol that picture is like 2 years old and you spend too much time on youtube. Go get a fuckin' life and stop stalking everything I say, you fuckin loser.

[bluesugar58]

Rosie was getting it, haters don't know anything about this!

[dbarroga]

looks like a Cosby intro

[SolidGold1980]

yeah, some of the moves are dated now but still a very powerful opening

[stlcaesar]

Spike Lee's joints just moved cats back in the day and his shit hit you right in the back your nose. This scene is a perfect example. They will never be another great period for movies like this

[irishace11]

The best 4 minutes of the entire 80's.

[nelsonpsjr]

I can remember how I felt when this scene EXPLODED in front of me. What a dance! What a song! What a scene! Fight the power!

[irishace11]

@nelsonpsjr That's funny, I remember to the instant when this came on in 89, where I was, I was mesmerized for 4 minutes and still remember the absolute power of this scene.

[trooper40below]

Man Rosie been dancing for years. She's behind all the Living Color dancers dance moves and steps. A lot of people didn't know that.

[BennyGaberMusic]

mmmmmm Rosie Perez

[Beetoe]

The song is history, probably the first song I grew up that really made my blood boil! And Rosie is simply the best dancer ever to grace the fierce lyrics. Love live PE!!

[Debutante24]

Girls... did yall try to do any of this shit at a club when this first came out and got laughed at? *raises hand*

[Neo2627]

Rosie was, and still is HOT!

[indeman17]

Reading about the making of this opening, Spike worked her for hrs on end, til she was about to drop. Probably why she looks pissed but sexy at the same time...

[jakesteel1]

Errr, THATS "dancing"?

.

She should have gone into MMA.

.

Her face cant get any worse and she looks like she was kicking someone's ass throughout the song...

[jakesteel1]

Poor thing looks like a bull dog and has the voice of a gay gnome.

.

NO QUESTION, she had to slob Spike's 1 inch pecker to get a part in this movie.

[Supertaniav]

best opening sequence in an american movie ever!!

[DexterHaven49]

@Supertaniav I agree. This is one of the best movie openings. Great song and dance. An attention getter. Another classic opening, if you haven't seen it yet, is from "The Replacement Killers." A guy has to kill some drug dealers in a night club, so he walks in slow motion to a rad Chemical Brothers song, "Keep Hope Alive," and puts a bullet on the table in front of the thugs. Then all hell breaks loose in slow mo. A great gentleman assassin.

Epic beginning of a all time classic!

[crysjumar1]

classic

[eseso3]

You sped this up, which s great for the dance scene but not for PE's vocals, I know I have the video. Chuck's boomin' voice is not boomin'.

[mochawitch]

Great message...CLASSIC song

[deionc]

can you imagine how fun i was to dance like that at parties..now a days people esp. men dont dance at all...

[MobKnowledge]

@deionc We don't drive horse carriages anymore either. Things get outdated.

[jwh1999]

[lpc0615]

I had no idea Rosie Perez was a dancer untill I was watching my In Living Color DVDs and found out she choregraphed the Fly Girls dance routine. I have to get this movie because I never seen this one. Rosie is a great dancer I like the opening of the movie.

[mokwaa1]

FIGHT THE POWER POW

[worldcoup]

Its all well and good for the movie, but if really dance like that in a dance club, dont be surprised if you go no further than the job club

[itsrastakitty]

Some Soul Train shit right here!

[facade3]

One person did the wrong thing....

[BellaIsDancing]

that is definately how i still dance in clubs.

[Bhronda]

@BellaIsDancing If you're swinging like Rosie here, I bet you do clear a dance floor!

[BOBBYDISHable]

[kinstube]

@letmespeak2u SHE WAS + I WAS IMPLYING THAT ROSIE WAS THE TEMPLATE/BLUEPRINT OF A FLY GIRL

[kinstube]

@letmespeak2u + THANK YOU FOR THE REPLY

[kinstube]

MASSIVE CLASSIC !!!!!

[daterminator70]

Dayyuummn Rosie could move...

[matthewb2015]

I like to think I could dance with Rosie, her doing this sequence in front of me. Then at 2:27 I wake up into my nightmare. By 2:33 I'm back in bed, 8 hours of sleep and a bowl of Wheaties.

[MoogPunch64]

i would bang the shit out of her

[FMAiscool]

@MoogPunch64 ew

[NolramNrets]

2:28-2:35. HOT

[onetrashdancer]

Rosie can suck some cock :)

[pyro2020]

Wish Girls Danced like this now instead of just bending over and popping it and grinding

[JimmyJones]

@pyro2020 There's an entire world out there, I doubt every single bitch in the world dance the same, but I don't mind some ass poppin.

[jeffreybiderpdee]

@pyro2020 At least its fun..

[newme09able]

@pyro2020 You better say that again...this is the way we danced...trust me...we danced we used our bodies we were so fit and trained. We ate whatever we wanted but was still thin because we dance and burned all that fat up.

[siddparkar]

@pyro2020 respect\m/

[Onegurrrlrev]

@pyro2020 I can! I love old school dancing! :)

[nikapoprincess]

@Onegurrrlrev Me too.!

[whitney86100]

she looks like she's spazzing out

[redsmooch989]

she looks like a monkey

[TheUltramagnus1]

short with a fat ass = perfect body

[Moltarthereviewer]

lol, this is really funny

[MegaRecoreco]

IF SHE DIDNT NUT I THINK I DID

[MegaRecoreco]

ID BEAT THE STUFFIN OUT THAT LIL FAT ASS

[mrhowardb]

This girls hip and thighs are mesmerizing....

[sharkaranyang]

God she is sooooo ugly. Mookie mookie lmfao. YUCK

[hovito212]

rosie perez was sooooooo sexy in this movie

[mztristanwilds]

Original JLO but wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy bettter!

[cloverfield00]

@mztristanwilds nope! j-lo dances waaay better than rosie,although rosie perez is responsible for j-lo's dancing career,since she hired j-lo as a fly girl dancer on "in livin color" i have all the footage from "in livin color' fly girl dancers,i'm going to forever bother rosie perez,since she didnt let me audition for "the fly girls in 1993 this dance routine is not all that,there are soultrain dancers out there who can do better and look better,in fact i can redo the whole routine,far better

[cloverfield00]

@mztristanwilds superhead can dance better than this aka kerrin stephens,big lez will murder rosie perez in dancing,"fatima robinson" will murder rosie perez in dancing,i wud luv to battle her in my hood southside,cuz people swear or she swear she's the greatest dancer not! i dont think so! try again! josie harris and boomcat aka lourie ann gibson can murder rosie in dancing,yall can see me in the lil louie vega live on mtv's grind late 90's dancing in all black,the rootdoctor abe wine rootgal

[Adam44516]

this is an awesome intro

[Jonxwood]

Rosie looked fine in '89, and she looks fine now. I'd forgotten that she debuted in "Do The Right Thing". Twenty years on, Rosie rocks.

[darrylhaynes]

she was fine back then...

[IronChefSpam]

If you do everything she does in this opening, you will burn 120k calories and drop 50lbs by the end....guaranteed!!!

[ectowle]

Rosie is Tight, man! The music is a stand-alone (awesome) and she absolutely becomes embedded in it. Ladies love her, too!

[jbmaillet]

I remember being stucked in my seat when I first saw this in a movie theatre in 1989. I'm _still_ stucked in my seat in front of a computer screen more than 20 years later.

[MegaBoose]

she is so awesome an inspiration ---still- her destiny-- bless her

[drmorb]

nice moves and bod but that face is rough, this was back when people thought spike lee was talented and PE was deservedly on top

[peepalot]

@drmorb As regards Spike you're confusing huge talent and the false measurement rule of cold-cash box-office reciepts. Spike Lee's body of work 25yrs of filmmaking screams "Talent!" Spike isn't Michael Bay&the only thing he blows up is ppl's minds& their preconceptions.His movies address&wrestle with the issues of real life:class,gender, sexuality and race using raw storytelling, idiosyncratic characters and of course Brooklyn as microcosmic America. His films define his talent,not dolla bills.

[drmorb]

@peepalot you claim, it's second rate blaxploitation, better yet raceploitation

[JoeSzilagy]

What amazing dancing! Rosie meant business- you can see it in her face!

[Geezyone]

She came with the hard dancing

[venuecam]

Apparently Rosie made all those dance moves up while Spike had the music blaring on the set... in major heat... for 7 hours!!!

[ecacancer69]

cool

[TRKoneAD2]

She dances better than Hammer

[mattylopey]

Anybody see the tribute to this on Childrens Hospital?

[ReadBelowHere]

3 mins and 40 seconds of the wierdest dance moves in history 3:09

[ReadBelowHere]

0:42 thats the kid n' play move lol

[salbella50]

DAMN...ROSIEEEEEEE...

[mbd60]

A great opening to one of the greatest movies of all time.

Elvis never said the "shine my shoes" bit, btw. It's a myth.

[Catlicker101]

@mbd60 your right, but the 'shine my shoes' bit is real. i have seen it. Fight the power

[mbd60]

@Catlicker101 Sorry, but you've been duped. Google "Elvis shine my shoes" and visit Snopes for the truth. Jet magazine investigated the rumor and came up with nothing.

[crazybeff]

SCHWING 

[52106211988able]

Did Spike Lee have a thing for her since he arranged her to be his girlfriend in the movie.

[skillz1855]

ive always like NY ricans, cool as fuck hung out with us, and never did race come up, damn i miss NY / NJ, g has a bunch of hillbillies that talk funny, and Rosie was one of my favorites

[veonza]

rosie can dance her ass off.

[52106211988able]

@veonza Yeah, the dancing built her ass!

[AnimasterOkami]

Awesome movie, and this is the best version of the song out there.

[jarofdirt23]

this makes me think of hey arnold.

[damyne77]

best dance video EVAR

[wondereyedrive]

great movie, great openning. Spike Lee was a visionary!

[rsapienza1965]

you suck..  too much lag.... WTF??????

[Mzbball]

All I gotta say is: GET IT ROSIE!!!! lmao

[MJsBabyGirl4Life]

Lol she is like serious about this. look at her face.

[Elite244]

UPDATE:

Rosie was injured filming a scene for 'Law and Order: SVU.' An extra had to physically shake her as part of a stunt, and she felt a pain in her neck following filming. Her injury ended up being a slipped disc and a bulging disc.

GET WELL SOON BABY! LOVE YA! :*

[jon76398]

i found that really wonderfull a latino was dancing to a black rap song yeah fight the power they should have had a black girl too or jlo ,was she around then?

[lwj24]

@jon76398 yes she was, she was a back up dancer for Mc Hammer and others around this time

[reeseleebaby]

2:59 lol doesnt she look like tisha campbell from Martin right there

[lkj199]

???????????

Que prepare t il ?

Une petite operation de com n'a jamais fais de mal a personne.....

[rokutaro92]

was elvis even racist? black guy askin this by the way

[terencex12]

@rokutaro92

racist in the sense that Elvis just hit up every juke joint on the mississippi river stealing songs. He could have credited the music but sold the music as original works.

[rokutaro92]

@terencex12 yeah i heard that he stole that song hound dog. But i guess back in the day, if you didn't look the part, you didn't play the part

[LuLusQueen]

@rokutaro92 , My grandad once told me that Elvis said "a black man can do nothing for me but shine my shoes"

[getyoasshome]

and thats why elvis stole all his moves from james brown and other black artist and to pay him back god made sure he died where he deserved to be.......on the toilet.

[doctorw2]

during that one nude scene with spike lee i was hoping they would show the rest of her and have a love making scene but, oh well they showed her fully nude in other movies and my god this woman has a goddess body. i always prayed she would do a playboy layout so i could.........well everyone has the idea.

[ravenme333]

Very excellent!

[brandonGCHACHU]

Awesome

[DerAlteFritz1]

remember seeing this movie in the theaters for the first time and just being blown away by this intro. Didn't know Rosie Perez was a Fly Girl on In Living Color. Go Rosie Go....

[jethrodassam]

@DerAlteFritz1 Rosie was the choreographer on "In Living Color"

[macknugget]

C L A S S I C !

[shayseme36]

rosie perez was hot as hell in these days and lets be real shes still a fox

[LSebastien]

[MystroMusicMan]

[loon0493]
