Vogue Evolution: The Beyonce Challenge

3 comments | Monday, August 17, 2009

The dance crew to beat, Vogue Evolution on this season's America's Best Dance Crew continues to bring the heat during week two of the popular MTV dance competition. Breaking ground as the first openly gay crew with a transgendered female member on ABDC, the New York voguers brought down the house and wowed the judges to a performance of Beyonce's DejaVu.

Judge Lil Mama continues to lend her support to Vogue Evolution during her critiques noting, "that it took a transgendered female(Leiomy Maldonado) to bring Beyonce to the stage". A legend in the ballroom scene, Maldonado is proving to be the fearless break out star of the group.

Although there has been many skeptics regarding the longevity of Vogue Evolution on the show and whether or not they'd be accepted by middle America, their fan base is growing by the week and their performances are making everyone take notice of their undeniable talent. 2 weeks down and several to go. Get it girls!

Watch Vogue Evolution's performance below:

I'm glad that this group is getting noticed. It lets the world know that we as Black/Brown and Gay people are a talent diversified group!!
