Get to the Pointe — pointe

It seems like...we've been here...before. That's because we have! It's Pointe Shoe Fitter Reacts to Ballet Tik Toks - PART 24. Twenty. Four. This series might be older than the majority of the viewing audience lol. Pointe shoes, ballet memes, ballet babies, ballet shoes, ballet core - allllll the funny ballet things from the internet for you! With Josephine's impeccable reactions, of course. 

 The saga into the universe that is Ballet Barbie continues... So far, Josephine has watched:- Barbie in the Nutcracker- Barbie of Swan Lake- Barbie & the Twelve Dancing Princesses And finally, Josephine reacts to the long awaited: Barbie and the Pink Shoes.  As per usual, we will be on the look out for disproportionate feet, colored pointe shoes, tutus/costumes, and of course - dancing! Which of the Barbie ballet series is your favorite??

Ballet is beautiful, elegant, powerful, and of course - has great fashion. So one would assume a natural crossover in the ven diagram that is ballet and fashion. HOWEVER, dancers and models serve different purposes. They have different abilities, backgrounds, experiences, training, and goals in their respective industry. So while dancers may fit much of the criteria to be a model, this doesn't necessarily make sense the other way around. Models are certain to slay a photoshoot or cat walk in ballet-inspired pointe shoes, no doubt. But there is a line. And that line is, you guessed it, pointe shoes....

Swank Lake: probably the most famous ballet about birds! But what if it wasn't birds? What if it was frogs? Or...hands? These videos are a little bit older and were circulating on Reels and TikTok, so we pulled the entire pieces to look at. On this episode of Pointe Shoe Fitter Reacts, Josephine looked at these silly swan lakes exploring these creative endeavors - what do you think? 

zNew format alert! This video, we asked Josephine to watch clips from some of the most popular dance movies and TV shows. Some of these we've seen recently, some are less recent. Josephine ranks the videos based on how accurate they are - with special look at any features on pointe shoes, of course. Do you like this new format? What other movies and TV shows have we missed?
