Teyana Taylor voguing, coincidence?


Teyana Taylor, best known for her stint on MTV's My Super Sweet 16, made an appearance on TRL to promote her new music video, "Google Me" (she's Pharrell's protege and her album, "A Planet Called Harlem" drops this spring.)

During the interview, she revealed that she was trying to bring voguing back, which was popular in 1993 after Madonna released her single, "Vogue." Teyana then demonstrated "voguing," and ended with a "suicide" dip (where she falls to the floor on her back with her legs in a half-split.) Shwam!

Voguing has been around for quite some time now, even before Madonna introduced it to middle-America back in the 20th century. It's huge in the gay community, to the point where there are actual competitions against different "houses." It's a really intricate sub-culture with a lot of history, and I think it's kind of offensive for this kid (Teyana) to take it upon herself to try to "bring it back."

But what's even more interesting is the rumor surrounding Teyana's own sexuality. Gee willikers, Teyana, this explains how you executed an almost perfect dip! You nearly got a "10, 10, 10" from me.

But when MTV VJ Damian asked her if she was currently dating anyone, she said she was only interested in dating her skateboard. Hmmm, still very suspicious.

Just don't eat it when you're riding on the carpet, if you catch my drift, miss thing.
