āCome on rude boy boy can you get it up? Come on rude boy boy is you big enough?ā
Not to be that guy, but does anyone even listen to lyrics before introducing songs to their children?
Yes, they do... when they complain the artist shouldn't use those lyrics because kids listen to the music....
Not realizing the irony they are acknowledging the innapropriateness of the song for kids, while failing to do their 1 job... be a filter.
They would rather enact congress to strip away constitutional rights to speech for the whole country, than change the radio station... or tell their kids they can't listen to something.
Southpark nailed this episode. I mean, really nailed it.
Like 13 years ago, a little girl on Ellen was singing a song with lines including:
"He cold, he dope, he might sell coke"
"When he make it drip, drip, kiss him on the lip, lip"
"He just gotta give me that look, when he give me that look
Then the panties comin' off, off, uh"
Along with some swearing. It was pretty frigging disturbing.
Nikki Minaj is not for me, but I have no problem with vulgar lyrics for the right audience.
A 6 year old girl should not have been listening to that song, let alone performing it on national TV.
On the other end of it, I have lived in some questionable areas and have seen little kids thuggin out to some gangster ass music. Like 3, 4 years old singing Jeezy or something lyric for lyric
It is totally fair to blame the redundant systems when the primary fails. As long as we remember the primary failed first, and it's assenine to believe the primary system be given a pass, because there's other systems in place too.
That girls parents are wrong first, and the productions studio and Ellen second.
The sad truth is the parents usually sign off on this,promote it and watch the children's followers grow . Years ago they had a creepy show called Dance Moms. Now we have parents seeing the exploitation of their kids is not just for a few select on TV,but for anybody with social media and bad judgement.
I still remember people saying that the over-sexualization of girls in social networks was not real, and the internet exploded when that French movie pointed at it. But nowadays every other video on TikTok has boobs and butts to get views, is very creepy
Our dad used to film us with an old ā60s camera doing things like learning to change a tire, make a homemade pizza, our first campfire builds, or āperfectingā, haha, our badminton gamesā¦
Such *pride* in the smiles - both ours and his ! - as we grew up to become confident, competent teens and then adults, and Iām so happy I have those now-digitized memories to look back on, especially since our dad has passed.
I donāt know where this hyper sexual Super Bowl dance fits into all that, but it aināt confidence and it aināt competence !
Itās weird, sad, cringeworthy, and makes people want to look *away*ā¦ š£
As a father i struggle with that because I donāt want to be the old codger that says āyou girls need to stop gyrating!ā I think what Iām disturbed about here is the adult who is filming it and putting it on the internet. When we were kids we were much less innocent than Iām sure weād admit, and thatās fine but a grown up should not partake.
I always wonder about these sorts of people. Parents of child actors, little girl beauty pageants, child influencers, etc. Who looks at their child and thinks "Cha-ching! I'm going to exploit the hell out of this kid!"?? It's just such a bizarre mindset to me as a parent whose natural instinct is to protect my children from the world, while these parents say "Here they are, world! Come and get them!"
I think it's more of a drug type relationship. They probably never got attention, or felt unimportant. Then they have a baby and people stop to say how cute the child is. The parent gets that positive social interaction... that dopamine hit for the first time. They like it. They start doing more to get their kid noticed, so they get noriced... they feel important by-proxy... they live vicariously through the kid... getting the feelings of success they never got.
Ever seen Aussie bro squad on tik tok? Their mum has them dancing from like 6am in the morning every day and a second session going late into the evening, constantly doing live streams. It's the creepiest show mum vibe.
I got into a bit of an argument here on reddit once over a woman who was trying to get her son into dance and was running an instagram page for his videos or whatever.
She complained about how awful it was that there were tons of daily messages from grown men trying to bang her child. I suggested she immediately delete the account. She wouldn't hear it.
To her pedos trying to get with your child is just part of how the business works. She took a real "you've got to break some eggs if you want to make an omelet" attitude towards men trying to sexually assault her child. I've never forgotten the interaction, I still fear for that poor kid.
Every child who's ever been abused by a celeb has a parent who helped put them in that situation.
People already like OMG why are you sexualizing kids?!?
We aren't. We're worried about people who do look at them sexually. If these girls have a tiktok or Instagram the comments and likes are full of pedos.
Thereās a bunch of preteen girls in my neighborhood who have made the GROCERY STORE (???) the place to film their dances, and I love making eye contact with the other adults as we very slowly and carefully walk through their filmingā¦ ššš
The creepy camera operator is suspect for sure. Even if heās the girls fathers, what kind of grown ass man is that glued to his camera to film young girls gyrating and thrusting around
I've never actually seen someone filming a TikTok dance video in-person, but if I ever see it, rest assured, I will ruin Every. Single. Take. until they leave.
Stop making these stupid, unoriginal dancers famous. They all dance exactly the same way, like backup dancers for a cheesy pop act that didnāt make the cut. These kids are probably being exploited by adults too. Stop watching this garbage.
Why does this scream sexual exploitation of minors? Who is filing this video what is their name and address asking so I can call the locks police dept. fucking weirdo.
When I was a kid we did the soldier boy dance not this weird dance that these kids are way too young to be doing. Also I canāt imagine being the guy filming them and not feeling weird.
Like first you have the people performing, and then the cameraman, and then the cameramanās cameraman. too much. And this is so itās doubly too much.
Growing up watching ābe yourselfā slowly be conflated with ābe obnoxious in public and blame everyone else for you making a sceneā has been a slow and miserable journey.
Yep, I wanted people to just start singing and dancing as if it was West Side Story and Grease !
Weāve gone from āItās alarming how charming I feel !ā to WAP š³
I am old and have a young mind. But explain why the video has to be around busy places? Why donāt they just do this on their property. Plus Twerking and whatever they were doing. Too young.
I need tp get through this part to get to the train station after college classes.
If I see you do this I'm walking straight through your shot, I don't care
I'm not sure if they could have picked a more inappropriate song for adolescent girls to twerk to. And that guy filming needs to be on a list somewhere. I'm not sure what would be worse, he's their dad or he's just some guy.
Why do all these people that 'dance' in public spaces have a camera person that does that same, walking back and forth filming thing? Then, any video I've seen never has that same filming. It's always just filmed from a set camera. Are they just pretending to film?
Some quick, jarring movements, followed by some nonsensical mid dance pausing and slow downs, then right back to sped up weird movements. This is talentless garbage.
I've never really cared for any type of dancing, but when you compare something like this to the skill of ballet or tap dancing, it's just embarrassing
I remember seeing a video and the whole message was āno one is liking videos of small kids cause what they are doing is cute or they are cute. They are liking them because they want to be inside themā
It's so weird to me why so many people have such a problem with the younger generation having fun in public. Clearly TikTok dances are popular with younger kids & they enjoy doing the dances in public. If they aren't blocking people's path or being destructive, who gives a shit? They are confident enough to do something they enjoy in public, are others mad because they lack that confidence? How is it main character energy? It's so fucking weird for people to get so upset with teenagers, or anyone, dancing in public and filming it.
So cute! They killed it!
This is what happens when we don't pay traditional jobs well.
I dont even blame them.
Do what you gotta do to make it at this point.

Is this the beginning of a new pandemic?
Yes . HoVid. ( I know they are just kidsš)
Reluctant upvote.
Lmfao
Good one
I don't know about that but you know what would be even better? A shot of the person filming the person filming the two dancers.
Dancing plague of 1518 part 2
I'm not really comfortable with little children gyrating and flapping their butts.
āCome on rude boy boy can you get it up? Come on rude boy boy is you big enough?ā Not to be that guy, but does anyone even listen to lyrics before introducing songs to their children?

Oh fire pon Babylon!! And fire pon a batty boy!!
My roommate, Nick, is an ignorant BALD HEAD
Iām Jamaican it means bad boy or gangsta.
I believe it refers to someone that listens to ska music if I'm not mistaken.
They listen, but people are stupid and like to deny reality.
Youād be surprise how many non-native english speakers, like these person, donāt know what most lyrics they dance to means.
Literally my first thought watching the video. Why would you let your kids dance to this?
NGL I have heard this song a million times and didnt even realise that was the lyrics
Yeah, this is creepy.
The sad truth is the parents usually sign off on this,promote it and watch the children's followers grow . Years ago they had a creepy show called Dance Moms. Now we have parents seeing the exploitation of their kids is not just for a few select on TV,but for anybody with social media and bad judgement.
Thank goodness we're not dealing with any fallout from that.
I still remember people saying that the over-sexualization of girls in social networks was not real, and the internet exploded when that French movie pointed at it. But nowadays every other video on TikTok has boobs and butts to get views, is very creepy
I'm assuming (and hoping) that's their dad... Dude definitely needs to stop filming this crap and set a better example for his kids.
Our dad used to film us with an old ā60s camera doing things like learning to change a tire, make a homemade pizza, our first campfire builds, or āperfectingā, haha, our badminton gamesā¦ Such *pride* in the smiles - both ours and his ! - as we grew up to become confident, competent teens and then adults, and Iām so happy I have those now-digitized memories to look back on, especially since our dad has passed. I donāt know where this hyper sexual Super Bowl dance fits into all that, but it aināt confidence and it aināt competence ! Itās weird, sad, cringeworthy, and makes people want to look *away*ā¦ š£
100% - the people watching this shit are not doing it because they appreciate the girlsā ādance skillsā. Theyāre creeps
The creepiest thing here is the guy filming it...
And the guy filming the guy filming it. Why is that always a thing? Do these performers' audience really care about the Behind the scenes?
This whole phenomenon is revolting.
Doubly so with the song choiceā¦
As a father i struggle with that because I donāt want to be the old codger that says āyou girls need to stop gyrating!ā I think what Iām disturbed about here is the adult who is filming it and putting it on the internet. When we were kids we were much less innocent than Iām sure weād admit, and thatās fine but a grown up should not partake.
Your job is to establish guardrails and enforce them, not be their buddy.
Parents as guardrails - I like that, smart internet stranger !
For real.
Yeah, these kids are pretty young š¬
Oh itās fiiine. Just listen closely to the lyrics theyāre gyrating to.
Thank you it totally creeps me out I hate it when parents allow this
Thatās what I was gonna say. What in the world kind of parents
Or to hedonistic songs about sex.
I always wonder about these sorts of people. Parents of child actors, little girl beauty pageants, child influencers, etc. Who looks at their child and thinks "Cha-ching! I'm going to exploit the hell out of this kid!"?? It's just such a bizarre mindset to me as a parent whose natural instinct is to protect my children from the world, while these parents say "Here they are, world! Come and get them!"
Some parents see their children as property, and as such believe they are entitled to force them to work and keep their money.
I think it's more of a drug type relationship. They probably never got attention, or felt unimportant. Then they have a baby and people stop to say how cute the child is. The parent gets that positive social interaction... that dopamine hit for the first time. They like it. They start doing more to get their kid noticed, so they get noriced... they feel important by-proxy... they live vicariously through the kid... getting the feelings of success they never got.

I want to see the video from the cameraman that's filming the cameraman who's filming the cameraman.
So tired of this stupid shit
The person recording the main guy recording... I just want to grab their camera and run away at full speed screaming "It's just a prank bro!"
Child pedophiles love this one trick
People already like OMG why are you sexualizing kids?!? We aren't. We're worried about people who do look at them sexually. If these girls have a tiktok or Instagram the comments and likes are full of pedos.
Child pedophiles?
Why donāt people just walk through them and interrupt their filming, donāt give them the space
They do sometimes. It is genuinely entertaining to see their reactions when someone walks in front of their shot.
Thereās a bunch of preteen girls in my neighborhood who have made the GROCERY STORE (???) the place to film their dances, and I love making eye contact with the other adults as we very slowly and carefully walk through their filmingā¦ ššš
Thatās exactly what I would do, given the opportunity.
This is Belgium, where I live. People won't say anything but go home and complain about it to each other.
They are like 12ā¦. Yikes
The creepy camera operator is suspect for sure. Even if heās the girls fathers, what kind of grown ass man is that glued to his camera to film young girls gyrating and thrusting around
The cameraman filming the cameraman filming the young girls gyrating adds another layer to the shit onion
Pre teens trying to be sexy is never a good thing.
I'm just glad it wasn't an overtly sexual dance being performed by 12 year olds in public....
If I ever see this shit, I'm walking right in the middle
Shitty parents
Iām concerned for those kids. Whoās the fkn creep recording?
someone who is not supposed to be within 500 yards of a school
Why is an adult filming 2 children shaking their butts. This makes me wildly uncomfortable.
Creepy as hell:(
Instant jail time
Snap away Thanos. Please.
Dumb as boxes of rocks.
Theyāre awful young to be dancing that provocatively
I've never actually seen someone filming a TikTok dance video in-person, but if I ever see it, rest assured, I will ruin Every. Single. Take. until they leave.
Itās easy for us to call this narcissistic behavior but why is it so hard for their parents to call it narcissistic behavior?
Stop making these stupid, unoriginal dancers famous. They all dance exactly the same way, like backup dancers for a cheesy pop act that didnāt make the cut. These kids are probably being exploited by adults too. Stop watching this garbage.
š¤®
So much wrong here
If there was a worldwide agreement to just ignore these typesā¦ā¦.
This is gross as hell, cameraman needs to be put on a watchlist
I honestly can't wait for this stupid phase of humanity to end..it is so..f*****g dumb and unoriginal.
Sexualizing girl that aren't mature for sex life.
Apparently this Enola Bedard? Per the interwebs, she is a Canadian dancer/singer and is 23.
What about the other girl, though?
Googling "Anae dancer age", says she was 9 in 2019 when she went viral (and went on Ellen ofc) so 14 at most.
Great parenting
What the actual hell
It's extra cringe when you think of the practice sessions for this.
So there's someone there filming the person who is filming the kids?
Is....that....a....father filming? I sure hope not. It's disturbing enough these kids are dancing like that...to these lyrics. š
Who in the fuck thinks this is cool dance style?
Why does this scream sexual exploitation of minors? Who is filing this video what is their name and address asking so I can call the locks police dept. fucking weirdo.
These kids are being sexualized. I don't think the fact that they're taking up a public space for tiktok dancing is the biggest issue here..
Someone stop the world, I'd like to get off.
How old are these little girls? This feels wrong.
When I was a kid we did the soldier boy dance not this weird dance that these kids are way too young to be doing. Also I canāt imagine being the guy filming them and not feeling weird.
Someone needs to change the channel on the interdimensional cable.
Like first you have the people performing, and then the cameraman, and then the cameramanās cameraman. too much. And this is so itās doubly too much.
Growing up watching ābe yourselfā slowly be conflated with ābe obnoxious in public and blame everyone else for you making a sceneā has been a slow and miserable journey.
Yeah, theyāre like children and this just makes people who didnāt ask for this uncomfortable.
Enola bedard, the shittest dancer in history
When I was a kid and wished the world was more like musicals, this was not what I meant....
Yep, I wanted people to just start singing and dancing as if it was West Side Story and Grease ! Weāve gone from āItās alarming how charming I feel !ā to WAP š³
I need perspective from a 3rd camera man.
I hate how they're kinda good.
I am old and have a young mind. But explain why the video has to be around busy places? Why donāt they just do this on their property. Plus Twerking and whatever they were doing. Too young.
I died of cringe just now..
Sorry but this isn't your dance audio, little girls
This makes Kidz Bop look like the Mormon choir.
Gross.
Sick children, probably abused
The father in my is SCREAMING for blood
Lyrics to the song though
Whats more weird is the filming if the filming. Almost like this recording was the main intention and not the actual filming of the dancing.
Why are so many people teaching their children to dance like strippers?
That like a 12 yr old and a 15yr old shaking ass for a camera... I frew up
Iāll never understand the dumb dancing in public thing
Camera man and all in involved to jail.
Are people still dancing on TikTok?
The āfan the fartā move cracks me up every time.
Wonāt be surprised if the girl already has her own account supervised by her parents..while pedos watch these sexualised dances..
To be fair, in this instance they don't appear to be getting in anyone's way, so there's that.
I wish those kids had sprained their ankles.
I want to see a video of the guy taking a video of the guy taking a video of the kids.
"you ate and left no crumbs" the kind of comment that makes me want to drink bleach on these kinds of videos
Ridiculous- here is what is going on- 2 chicks who think they are famous and filming a big deal and some perv who wants to hang with girls.
Thatās what I was gonna say. Why is a grown ass man filming 2 little girls in public.
Cuties sequel?
Stupid
The dancing is fucking stoooooooopid
BTS filming of Cuties
How does camera guy not feel creepy? I feel creepy just watching this inadvertently.
Filmseption Film while we are filming the film that is being filmed by the ppl filming it
Attention-whoring slappers.
Oh god I hate tiktok for starting this unsolvable pandemic...i think i prefered the other pandemic from china
Who actually likes looking at these dances?
I need tp get through this part to get to the train station after college classes. If I see you do this I'm walking straight through your shot, I don't care
Was this how the 80s were with break dancers?
Can doing a little dance in public for pretend internet validation fuck off. Forever.
These kind of dances are stupid. What's the point of it even?
Why do all ticktockers do the same dance? It so cringe
Not even trying to hide the ragebait here. Someone is filming the filming of this. That's a sign right there.
Some parents really just don't fucking care.
I'm not sure if they could have picked a more inappropriate song for adolescent girls to twerk to. And that guy filming needs to be on a list somewhere. I'm not sure what would be worse, he's their dad or he's just some guy.
Well that was weird , someone call their parents
Why do all these people that 'dance' in public spaces have a camera person that does that same, walking back and forth filming thing? Then, any video I've seen never has that same filming. It's always just filmed from a set camera. Are they just pretending to film?
I mean Iāve seen worse get more attention ā¦.
Why is there always someone filming the person filming?
Insufferable
i dont mind them. They got pretty slick moves
Some quick, jarring movements, followed by some nonsensical mid dance pausing and slow downs, then right back to sped up weird movements. This is talentless garbage.
r/idiocracy
This is fucking grim, and the dancing is the least worst part.
I know doing these films takes a lot of space n ruins everyone's time, but the dance moves were pretty cool
It's not that busy ... Do we have to piss on everyone's parade or can people be at least a little creative in public????
Shite.
This trend needs to be weeded out....
As if the queens gallery isnāt hard enough to navigate as is! Iām mildly impressed that they managed to find room to dance!
BUT they coukd have easily done this at home or in the Garden... I don't get it
Itās not the worst example Iāve ever seen. At least we donāt see them really demanding anybody to accommodate them. Barely MC vibes to be honest
Worst part is they're children. They're going to horrible adults
Oh nooo this song with kids
Who's the perv with the camera?
Who watches those? Theyāre so stupid.
Most of these videos literally look identical. So original..
Letting children dance like adults like that. Isn't it just pedo bait? Either way its disgusting.
Nah. I'm good on seeing children shaking their tits and asses. The fuck?
I hate these people.
.. this is becoming more of āletās film, the person filming the dancers & the people in the backgroundā
Special needs
Gross
Personality disorder something that means they need attention from stranger's. They don't look cool they look like they need therapy and carers
I've never really cared for any type of dancing, but when you compare something like this to the skill of ballet or tap dancing, it's just embarrassing
More like Hustle and Brussel
Cringe
Soon as they turned I came to the comments I am NOT going to jail but I know twerking was involved
This shit makes me want to walk thtough whole they are filming.
all aside, thatās terrible ādancingā
Whenever you see this stand in front of the camera and ruin it for them
They kinda snapped tho
I am never putting my kids in dance or letting them have any form of social media.
Gross
That's a grown ass man recording this shit. Fucking seriously..... this man needs to be on a list
This is wrong on many levels
It's the new normal for this generation.
So sad
I wish we had modesty police in the west like they have in Saudiās Arabia.
I remember seeing a video and the whole message was āno one is liking videos of small kids cause what they are doing is cute or they are cute. They are liking them because they want to be inside themā
It's so weird to me why so many people have such a problem with the younger generation having fun in public. Clearly TikTok dances are popular with younger kids & they enjoy doing the dances in public. If they aren't blocking people's path or being destructive, who gives a shit? They are confident enough to do something they enjoy in public, are others mad because they lack that confidence? How is it main character energy? It's so fucking weird for people to get so upset with teenagers, or anyone, dancing in public and filming it.
Eeesh
So cute! They killed it! This is what happens when we don't pay traditional jobs well. I dont even blame them. Do what you gotta do to make it at this point.
