Staying true to his style, known for outrageous and uberly energetic choreography and charismatic partnering, Bersten released this video accompanied by the words, “We’re so excited for this weeks dance!!!” The video was essentially a series of quick cuts of them rehearsing with Bersten repeating, in various enthusiastic tones, “This week we’re dancing.” The momentum created after Bersten asks, “Lanes really excited. So you ready to see it?” and immediately grabbing the camera became a huge source of comedy.
The sudden camera-snatch at the end of this video brought instant comic relief. “Damnit Alan I was watching that!” one user exclaimed, to which Alan replied, “BEST COMMENT 🤣🙏,” acknowledging the funny remark.
Another user nailed the whole confusion felt by at least half the audience: “I thought something was wrong with my phone till he grabbed it 🤦🏽♂️🤣😂.” They were more “oh” than “ugh” once the geenius setup of the camera snatch was realized.
Not letting go of the comic value, one spectator exclaimed, “😆😅🤣😂 Reflexes of a ninja!!! 😆” referring to Bersten’s inappropriately fast grab for the camera: proving that even rehearsals away from the camera represent a second stage for the athletic prowess of Bersten.
The duo, however, were accompanied by a lot of love from the fans aside from the comic antics. One person was shouting out, “This is hilarious! @elaine4animals is goals and makes all of our millennial hearts happy! You have my votes! ❤️🔥” That chemistry between the pair seems to hit home with certain demographic groups.
“GET IT @elaine4animals!! This outfit is 😍 and you’re electric on the dance floor! ❤️❤️,” raved actress Danielle Fishel more excited still, wherein even outside of dance circuit, the duo seems to generate buzz.
The fashion aspect did not go unnoticed either: “Omg love this also @elaine4animals your fit is 🔥🔥🔥🔥!” exclaimed another user, in appreciation of Bredehoft’s rehearsal garb and style.
Then the family of Bersten came along, as ‘starbersten’ asked, “Is it Evian water? 😂” referring to the water bottle in the rehearsal studio, raising the personal connection a bit higher.
Such a staggering flow of positive feedback speaks to the powerful relationship Bersten and Bredehoft have with their viewers. Never too precocious or polished, with the blend of earnest dance rehearsals and downright gag-worthy antics in the middle, the content talks aside from boring rehearsal footage. This concept not only makes the anticipation for their next dance greater but aids in building the emotional investment of the viewers regarding their partnership path.
