Ballerina Masters The Nutcracker's 'Sugar Plum Fairy' In A Day | Glamour 

Hotel? Trivago

Lol

Couldnt relate more

Future ex Mrs. Malcolm 😂😂😂😂😂😂 why is this comment so funny to me

Same.

Yes I SO agree

Agree, would love her to do some more tutorials!

zziggy808 AGREE!

Agree. One of my favorite parts of this video.

Usually we do it ourselves

I agree

Agreed - I love her explanations with sound effects lol

She is a joy to watch!!

@@sis-bro-sis7513 que tho jffd he fhfdkdmfhfffht

And dont forget she is beautifull as heaven!!!! She is soo nice!!!!, If I was her same age ( i am way jounger ) I wanted to be her husband, but I think everyone whants to be her husband!!!

THANK YOU. All of the explanations and focus on the footwork throughout the video only to frustrate the viewer with multiple cuts in the final scene. Then very little attention paid to the footwork as well!

Yes omg I agree!!!!

and the musicality usually gets off when there’s cuts like that

Yes, so correct!

Not to mention the lighting 🙄

Just commenting so you can see your likes :)

Faerylla OMG thats so many likes!! hahahaha I guess we’re all thinking the same thing when watching😂😂😂

@@Ava-od4vm good luck dear. 🙂

Faerylla that’s how it works!!?

Merry Crisis everyone ❤️

Air Quotes some roles are just as demanding. Such as princess in sleeping beauty. As often in companies on a principled say off dancing aurora they dance the evil fairy. Other ballets Luke Raymonda have lots of variations for a principle dancer. But I loved dancing black swan such a great yet challenging role both physically but also because the acting of character has many dimensions. If you haven’t noticed I love my craft. 💙

Hmm there are roles as hard or even harder as odette and odile. I think you meant to say that the most physically demanding ballet is swan lake, and that almost everyone can agree because the principal is p much always on stage giving it her all

I think Aurora is the most challenging, no? Especially as you're on stage practically the whole time.

@@kristin123a I wouldn't say so only because i think the amount on stage is balanced with hard steps and parts that allow you to rest, but to me it's a very close second. Oh and I don't really like sleeping beauty hahaha I guess I'm biased

@ffliberty and nobody asked you to try and put her down like that. Go away.

@Give Good Face you just said a mouthful...

Not all kinds of dance is equally hard 😉 some just requires moving and having fun without proper technic.

Well that’s because a great dancer is supposed to make it look easy.

F.Emirli Most dances are pretty hard though, it just that other dancers make it look easier.

hello skksks16 figure skating is even harder. It’s a ballet on four edges of steel and slippery surface :)

THANK YOU!!! I've been dancing 10/12 years of my life (since I was 2) and I have legit been taunted my entire life about dance. Even my friends think it's stupid and pointless and refuse to watch me dance.

then they're not your real friends. Real friends support whatever you're doing.

@@elvenses4798 make them stand on their toes lmao. as a kid, i always knew how freaking hard and painful it was to dance ballet and until now i have mad respect to ballerinas out there

@@yoghuuu Yes, My daughter said that too. She would ask them to go up on their toes. It didn't happen, and they actually said, they didn't realize how difficult that was.

Same

Jess Li much respect to you to

Have you seen maddie zeigler

@@mahmudabegum2491 Maddie Ziegler. But I like Chloe Lukasiak more,she also got scholarship at Joffrey Ballet School

hehe i went to joffrey for a bit

Jess Li that’s so cool 😦😂 that must be really fun

Agreed!

0 seconds ago I would like her to be a great student. Her coach told her that her piqué was too low. Her foot needed to be at the knee. But, she never changed it. Her piqué foot. kept landing at her mid-calf instead of at the knee making a much less coach told her that needed to be at the knee and she never changed it her piqué the knee making a much less exciting turn. I think a coach coaches you .and you are to receive what the coach says .You are not co-coaching, which is the feeling I get with this young lady. I love the way the Russians coach. There’s so much respect between the two. The coach either should be very honored or get another coach

Creative Username wow, lucky! Also, I’m your 100th like :3

i thought she was playing as the sugar plum fairy

@@krissywilliams1714 No, she's in the corps de ballet! That's why she hadn't danced this role before this video.

@@isabella-tt8kw yeah it was

@@krissywilliams1714 no, courtney lavine played the sugar plum fairy

Vanessa Gilliard me! 😂

Same here! Ballet is so beautiful though~

I think this might kill me if I tried it 😂

I was a dancer growing up and I dreamed of being a ballerina, then I did pointe for 4 years and I’m like “nope, never mind”

Me 😂

THANK YOU🎊🎉🎊🎉🎊 for understanding

Def! They're sooo incredible and make it look so easy it feels like they just rocked up and did it out of nowhere lol lol

I totally agree with what you said. I think a lot of us believe a principal dancer doesn’t struggle, they’re so good that’s why they got the part. I think it would shock a lot off people to see how many hours and years of training it took to get that good

Emily Ilott she really is she dances beautifully 😍

The lighting was quite dim too.

even when they are talking about the hair, the focus was on her face and the hair was blurred, i wish i did see more of her dance

Karya Erkan that’s the goal

And so elegant too!

gabigabi Same (^_^)

gabigabi same

Ditto

Todorokiii kunnnn

I just looked at my clock when I read your comment and it’s literally 3:59am for me. 😳

IKR

Yep. "Ballerinas get washed out under the lights." Then there's no lights.

You must be blind then 😂 I can see her fine

I feel like they did that in an attempt to hide how dingy the costume was... clearly its bee. In storage for some time and a retired costume piece which is fine but I they probably didn't want the viewer focusing on that...me I'm. Just ocd and noticed the stained spot in the abdomen area that made me realize the entire condition.

blahhh sameee i noticed that too then i realised how dirty the costume was but i still enjoyed her solo 😍

The face and the make up are the least important part, I could see everything just fine

Except the slight insinuation that her ears stick out. Which quite clearly they don't. Her ears look just simply perfect 😍

Seriously!!

I-

YOUR PROFILE🐤

i mean i totally agree that it’s taxing and such but sports typically have some sort of competition where as ballet is an art. just as hard as a sport but not the same concept.

@@kristycarrol5266 of course it’s a sport, it’s both a sport and an art. you are physically exerting yourself lol

@@kristycarrol5266 Ballet comps

Switch studios?

If it’s that stressful hun you should see if you can switch because dance is so fun and important in life and the older you get it’s only going to be harder to get back into.

You can still dance without a studio, there are smaller stages that looks for dancers

Dont quit your ballet!!!!! You will live to regret it. You only have a window of time. My friend's daughter was so stressed by one studio she almost quit. They broke her self esteem. Her mother moved her to another studio and now she is flourishing. I can tell you love ballet. You will be a beautiful dancer. Find your right place and you will flourish.

Try and find another studio if that is possible

Get you a dvd and practice

you dodged a bullet...saved your toes and ankles BIG TIME

Why not start now?

They were trying to make the faux performance more theatrical. Otherwise it was just her in the same studio with nothing to distinguish it. I don't know why they couldn't film the full choreo on some kind of stage set in a theater at least but probably not financially possible on the magazine's budget.

And Salenko’s photo in a Royal Ballet production of The Nutcracker

vv I think so too... seems to me that in some point dancers are still not being appreciated enough as artists ( I mean you would not use a photo of Justin Bieber in the thumbnail of your cover of a song) but I mean mistakes happen

Mya-Neomi Neumann ahhh iana is magnificent. yeah i noticed that too.

Since Scout admitted she has never danced the role the producers likely chose to put a look alike sugar plum in the thumbnail. I agree that Glamour should have at least credited the photo.

Mya-Neomi Neumann I agree she deserves credit. Scout Forsyth did not perform this variation up to the standard of many top dancers. (Sorry)

@Natalie 1234 it is to me.

Natalie 1234 what do you define as a sport? My definition is and physical act which requires the entire body to preform its a sport .

my name's myriah It’s much harder than both gymnastics and skating. Put together. It is not a sport although you do cross train as an athlete. It’s precisely because it’s not a sport that it takes a Herculean effort and life long commitment. I suggest you watch some Royal Ballet rehearsal videos or videos on how dancers train

It is not a sport because it doesn't fulfills the requirements to be a sport. Doesn't make it any less hard or demanding

Juliana Karasawa ballet is the female version of wrestling. It’s a sport. If figure skating is a sport (which it is), ballet is a sport. Figure skating is intense, but ballet is harder (ex figure skater).

That was her?

The Naughty Christmas Elf Yup! Scout Forsythe

Lol. Learning how to do that is the hardest part, after that it comes as naturally as breathing!

Yeah. Spotting was always the death of me in dance

@@ellievazquez3008 yup, now I'm an Irish dancer and I have to learn how to stop spotting, but I just can't help myself

Spotting is really one of the hardest things in dance. At least in my experience. Especially when learning a new turn

I thought ballet companies get more of their funds through philanthropy, art programs supported by the government and generous private donors. Of course box office is important but that's not solely what they rely on for funds.

WHY ALL CAPS?

Excuse me, but I believe you said “Sports are supported...” Dance is a sport

IM POOR

@@johrecko61 o

There weren't enough Bobbie pins for it to be a real ballet bun. (at least what was shown to us)

That's what it's supposed to look like.

Mr. Chapo Martinez I know

Well you get the legs by dancing

I’m a ballerina at a dance studio but I ain’t no pro 🤣🤣

My legs are literally sausages

You'd have the legs if you were a ballerina. They earn them! It takes a ton if strength to lift your leg that high.

She is very charming.

Jahnavi Singh ahahahahha

Shoulders rotate that makes armpits rotate

Jahnavi Singh yeAh

Yesh I can dislocate my arm :)
