Baldwin Boogie: Alec and Hilaria's Cringe-Worthy Dance Moves Go Viral!
SHAKING THINGS UP: Alec Baldwin and Hilaria's Cringe-Worthy Dance Video Leaves Fans Gobsmacked
The internet is still reeling from the latest Instagram upload by Hollywood power couple Alec Baldwin and his wife, yoga instructor and fitness author Hilaria, who are currently competing on the popular reality show Dancing with the Stars. The duo decided to shake off their inhibitions and share a hilarious video of themselves busting out some questionable dance moves to the catchy tune "Shake It To The Max" by Ghanaian singer Molly and Jamaican producer Silent Addy.
In the clip, which has left fans giggling uncontrollably, Alec, 67, and Hilaria, 41, can be seen waving their hands in the air like a pair of overexcited birds, flapping them back and forth with all the finesse of a couple of amateur hour participants at a wedding reception. Meanwhile, Hilaria's hips wiggle about like they're trying to escape from a bad case of restless leg syndrome.
The pièce de résistance comes when Alec attempts to lean over while wiggling his hips in unison with his wife, looking like he's about to take a pratfall at any moment. It's a wonder their pro dance partners on the show don't cringe every time they see this clip.
Hilaria couldn't resist poking fun at her husband's lack of coordination by posting the video captioned: "Alec tried our routine." Little did she know, however, that their fans would be left scratching their heads and wondering what exactly they were trying to achieve with those moves. Some even took to social media to express their disappointment, sharing 'No' gifs and writing "Yikes" in response.
But just when we thought things couldn't get any juicier, it emerged that Hilaria had suffered a personal loss recently, announcing the passing of her beloved Maltese dog Dama on Instagram over the weekend. The yoga instructor shared heart-wrenching photos of their furry friend lounging on her baby bump during pregnancy and expressed gratitude for the love and joy Dama brought to their lives.
Fans flooded the comments section with condolences, including from PETA, which sent its "love and condolences" to Hilaria's family. Meanwhile, a few netizens couldn't resist taking digs at the couple's dance skills, with one commenter snarking: "Alec and Hilaria are perfect examples of people who should not be allowed on a dance floor without proper training."
Hilaria's Dance Journey Takes a Tumble
It seems that Hilaria's personal life has been overshadowed by her turbulent run on Dancing with the Stars, where she's been paired with pro Gleb Savchenko. The couple came perilously close to elimination in week two after a double elimination saw two teams kicked off the show.
But what really caught our attention was a Reddit user who took the time to dissect Hilaria's dance performances on the show, labeling her "awkward" and claiming she doesn't possess either the skill or charisma required of a pro. Another commenter quipped: "I think she wrote this comment herself on a burner – it's like she's begging for sympathy."
It seems fans are getting tired of Hilaria's antics both on and off the dance floor, with some accusing her of being ungrateful and cruel after securing votes in recent episodes.
Fellow Contestants Fall by the Wayside
Just when we thought things couldn't get any more dramatic, it emerged that fellow contestants Corey Feldman and Jenna Johnson, as well as Baron Davis and Britt Stewart, had been eliminated from the competition. And just last week, Fifth Harmony singer Lauren Jauregui bid adieu to her Dancing with the Stars journey.
As we continue to watch this season's drama unfold, one thing is certain: only time will tell if Hilaria and Alec can redeem themselves on the dance floor or whether their shaky moves will be the final nail in their reality TV coffin.
