    - First, you wanna start with
    placing your hands on your hips.
  • 0:16 - 0:18
    Feet apart. Good.
  • 0:18 - 0:20
    Bend your knees. Good.
  • 0:20 - 0:22
    You wanna take your thumbs and press--
  • 0:22 - 0:24
    - Wait a minute. I'll try that.
  • 0:24 - 0:27
    - Press on your back so your hips
    can go forward first. Okay?
  • 0:27 - 0:31
    So you're gonna go:
    press, press, press, press.
  • 0:31 - 0:33
    - Oh, It's twerking, isn't it?
  • 0:33 - 0:36
    Is it twerking? It's twerking, baby!
  • 0:36 - 0:37
    Twerk me!
  • 0:37 - 0:39
    - Oh yeah, that's it all right.
  • 0:39 - 0:42
    Beyonce and all the girls. Miley Cyrus.
  • 0:42 - 0:45
    - When you actually do it,
    it's faster. It's not as slow.
  • 0:47 - 0:50
    This isn't something you're
    supposed to do in public, I take it.
  • 0:50 - 0:53
    - She looks like she's riding a horse.
  • 0:53 - 0:55
    - Yes, I see the interest now.
  • 0:55 - 0:59
    - (laughing and clapping)
    Shake that booty!
  • 0:59 - 1:02
    ♪ (J. Dash, "Wop") ♪
  • 1:04 - 1:06
    - A little bit booty there, huh?
  • 1:06 - 1:07
    - Good gravy!
  • 1:07 - 1:09
    - Of course it looks good on young people.
  • 1:09 - 1:11
    I don't know about the older set.
  • 1:12 - 1:14
    - Oh, no.
  • 1:15 - 1:18
    - Oh, they need
    a doorway for this, a wall.
  • 1:18 - 1:20
    - (laughing)
  • 1:20 - 1:22
    - Oh dear!
  • 1:22 - 1:25
    - (laughing)
  • 1:26 - 1:28
    - Oh my god.
  • 1:28 - 1:30
    - I think chicks are born
    with this already.
  • 1:33 - 1:37
    - Oh ho ho ho ho! I'm in love.
  • 1:37 - 1:41
    - Oh, that's Miley in that funny
    rabbit suit or whatever it is.
  • 1:43 - 1:46
    - Ain't got no shame, honey.
  • 1:46 - 1:48
    - Oh, I'm sure their parents are so proud.
  • 1:54 - 1:57
    - OH! GOLLY!!
  • 1:57 - 2:00
    - That's a little bit different
    from the stuff I used to do.
  • 2:01 - 2:02
    - Wow.
  • 2:02 - 2:05
    - I could watch it over and over. (laughs)
  • 2:05 - 2:07
    - I don't think that's gonna
    make it in a retirement home.
  • 2:07 - 2:09
    (movie reel clicks)
  • 2:09 - 2:11
    - (Finebros) So how would
    you describe that dance?
  • 2:11 - 2:12
    - Crazy.
  • 2:12 - 2:13
    - Very sexy.
  • 2:13 - 2:14
    - Purely sexual.
  • 2:14 - 2:16
    - I wouldn't like my daughter doing it.
  • 2:16 - 2:17
    - Old-fashioned butt shaking.
  • 2:17 - 2:18
    - (Finebros) Can you do the dance for us?
  • 2:18 - 2:20
    - Oh, absolutely not!
  • 2:20 - 2:21
    - Oh, I couldn't do that!
  • 2:21 - 2:22
    - I can't move like that, bro.
  • 2:22 - 2:25
    - My bottom just doesn't
    go that way! (laughing)
  • 2:25 - 2:27
    - It's too sexy.
  • 2:27 - 2:29
    You guys aren't prepared for me.
  • 2:29 - 2:30
    - Of course!

  • 2:37 - 2:38
    Hey, hey!
  • 2:39 - 2:42
    - Oh god! Well, I think
    I better forget about that.
  • 2:42 - 2:44
    - (Finebros) What would
    you call this dance?
  • 2:44 - 2:44
    - Booty bounce.
  • 2:44 - 2:45
    - The booty rump.
  • 2:45 - 2:47
    - Butts for sale.
  • 2:47 - 2:48
    - Sexy let's get it on.
  • 2:48 - 2:51
    - Oh, how to upset your mom?
    I don't know. (laughing)
  • 2:51 - 2:56
    - Tweaking twerking twarking...
    trekking... something like that.
  • 2:56 - 2:58
    -(Finebros) They call it twerking.
  • 2:58 - 3:01
    - Oh honey... is that to go
    along with tweeting?
  • 3:01 - 3:03
    - Oh, I've heard of twerking!
  • 3:03 - 3:05
    - Oh, that's the twerking
    thing I heard about.
  • 3:05 - 3:07
    Some kids got in trouble for that.
    And I can understand.
  • 3:07 - 3:09
    - (Finebros) So do you like the dance?
  • 3:09 - 3:09
    - No.
  • 3:09 - 3:10
    - Not particularly.
  • 3:10 - 3:12
    - Oh yeah. I loved it.
  • 3:12 - 3:14
    It's very sexy! I'm a guy!
  • 3:14 - 3:17
    - Yeah, I like the dance.
    I like rhythm, you know.
  • 3:17 - 3:18
    And I like girls.
  • 3:18 - 3:20
    - I guess if I was, you know,
  • 3:20 - 3:22
    finishing off a pitcher
    of beer in a strip club,
  • 3:22 - 3:23
    it'd look pretty good.
  • 3:23 - 3:28
    - I like the fact that it
    emphasizes that big bottoms--
  • 3:28 - 3:30
    which I have one too--
    are not to be hidden
  • 3:30 - 3:32
    or ashamed of.
  • 3:32 - 3:34
    - Oh. Who could not like that?
  • 3:34 - 3:37
    As guys, we can look
    at an ankle or a wrist
  • 3:37 - 3:40
    and get excited, let alone a booty
  • 3:40 - 3:43
    upside-down, shaking in tune with music.
  • 3:43 - 3:46
    Hello! I mean, we explode.
  • 3:46 - 3:48
    (ka-boom!)
  • 3:48 - 3:49
    - (Finebros) There are people--
  • 3:49 - 3:51
    and some of them are younger
    teenagers-- that are twerking
  • 3:51 - 3:54
    and then posting it for the public
    to see, on the internet.
  • 3:54 - 3:55
    What do you think about that?
  • 3:55 - 3:57
    - Just don't leave your name
    and address and telephone number.
  • 3:57 - 4:01
    - I guess it's not as bad
    as posting straight pornography.
  • 4:01 - 4:03
    - I think when they go to have a job,
  • 4:03 - 4:06
    and someone goes online,
    they could be in BIG trouble.
  • 4:06 - 4:08
    - When I was in high school and college,
  • 4:08 - 4:09
    I was a dancing fool.
  • 4:09 - 4:13
    - But we didn't have it where,
    like, you upload it somewhere,
  • 4:13 - 4:14
    and then it's there for posterity.
  • 4:14 - 4:16
    - They can put this up on YouTube
  • 4:16 - 4:18
    and get the whole world looking at them,
  • 4:18 - 4:21
    and it makes them feel
    important. I suspect though
  • 4:21 - 4:24
    that down deep, there's
    something more important missing.
  • 4:24 - 4:26
    - We saw these kinds of dances.
  • 4:26 - 4:30
    These gals did these
    very exotic sexual dances.
  • 4:30 - 4:35
    And that was in feature films
    back in the '30s, '40s, and '50s.
  • 4:35 - 4:37
    So has it really changed?
  • 4:37 - 4:39
    - (Finebros) What was dancing like
    when you were younger?
  • 4:39 - 4:41
    - It was Arthur Murray!
  • 4:41 - 4:43
    It was very elegant.
  • 4:43 - 4:44
    - We did, like the jitterbug.
  • 4:44 - 4:46
    - Jitterbug, or swing.
  • 4:46 - 4:48
    - We usually asked the band,
  • 4:48 - 4:50
    "Hey, can you play something
    we can dance to?"
  • 4:50 - 4:53
    And that's like SLOW AND OLD FOGEY!
  • 4:53 - 4:57
    - Did you know, the twist came out
    when I was in middle school,
  • 4:57 - 4:59
    and my parents didn't really approve.
  • 4:59 - 5:01
    - Oh, it was much different from that!
  • 5:01 - 5:04
    Ed Sullivan had to show
    Elvis from the waist up!
  • 5:04 - 5:10
    Because he just gyrated
    a little bit of love.
  • 5:10 - 5:13
    These girls are giving it
    away to the lowest bidder!
  • 5:13 - 5:15
    - (Finebros) Back when
    you were a teenager,
  • 5:15 - 5:17
    if some girl suddenly started
    twerking at a school dance,
  • 5:17 - 5:19
    what would the administration
    have done to that student?
  • 5:19 - 5:21
    Oh they'd be facing
    counseling with the principal
  • 5:21 - 5:24
    and their parents
    and all that immediately.
  • 5:24 - 5:26
    - When I was a kid, if someone did that,
  • 5:26 - 5:28
    nobody would've known what the hell to do.
  • 5:28 - 5:31
    - Oh, I bet that kid would have
    been dragged out by his ear!
  • 5:31 - 5:32
    - They paddled them.
  • 5:32 - 5:34
    And you know what, I think
    we should go back to that.
  • 5:34 - 5:37
    These parents spare the rod
    and spoil the child.
  • 5:37 - 5:40
    We've got a lot of spoilage
    running around.
  • 5:40 - 5:42
    - (Finebros) Well, some schools
    have suspended students
  • 5:42 - 5:45
    for twerking and posting the videos.
    - Good for them!
  • 5:45 - 5:47
    But their parents are probably
    going in and saying,
  • 5:47 - 5:48
    "How dare you do that to my child?
  • 5:48 - 5:50
    My child has the right to twerk!"
  • 5:50 - 5:52
    - (Finebros) When you
    see things like this,
  • 5:52 - 5:53
    what does it make you think
    about what it would be like
  • 5:53 - 5:55
    if you were a young person today?
  • 5:55 - 5:56
    - Oh, I wouldn't want to be one.
  • 5:56 - 5:58
    It's too complicated now.
  • 5:58 - 6:01
    - If I had to raise a young person,
    I mean, I'd be pretty, like--
  • 6:01 - 6:03
    It's a daunting task.
  • 6:03 - 6:05
    - I actually think it's kind of sad.
  • 6:05 - 6:08
    There's such pressure on you
    to dress a certain way
  • 6:08 - 6:10
    and dance a certain way.
  • 6:10 - 6:12
    - My hats off to you, younger generation,
  • 6:12 - 6:17
    'cause you're getting 50 times
    the information that we got.
  • 6:17 - 6:19
    - (Finebros) What advice would
    you give to parents out there
  • 6:19 - 6:21
    of how to talk to their
    kids about twerking?
  • 6:21 - 6:23
    - Oh, parents don't like
    to talk to their children.
  • 6:23 - 6:26
    - Parents that would
    allow their kids to do this?
  • 6:26 - 6:29
    I'm not sure advice
    is of any value to them.
  • 6:29 - 6:30
    - You can't say, "You can't do this,"
  • 6:30 - 6:33
    because that just makes it more difficult.
  • 6:33 - 6:35
    - They would do it behind your back.
  • 6:35 - 6:40
    - I would let the kid know
    that you're advertising sex.
  • 6:40 - 6:41
    So be very careful.
  • 6:41 - 6:43
    - Try to reach their conscience.
  • 6:43 - 6:47
    Do they understand the movements
    and what they mean?
  • 6:47 - 6:49
    - And ask them if this is really
  • 6:49 - 6:51
    how they want to be presenting themselves.
  • 6:51 - 6:53
    Of course, they'd
    probably say, "Sure, yeah."
  • 6:53 - 6:55
    - (Finebros) So finally, should
    people out there twerk?
  • 6:55 - 6:56
    - No, I don't think so.
  • 6:56 - 6:58
    - It all depends on the age.
  • 6:58 - 6:59
    - I say go for it!
  • 6:59 - 7:03
    - Should they? We're not gonna
    legislate on twerking, are we?
  • 7:03 - 7:04
    They can go whatever they want
  • 7:04 - 7:07
    as long as they're not hurting
    anyone other than themselves.
  • 7:07 - 7:09
    And you might be hurting
    yourself by doing that.
  • 7:09 - 7:11
    You might strain a hip!
  • 7:11 - 7:12
    - Not in public.
  • 7:12 - 7:16
    If you're waving your
    private parts in people's faces,
  • 7:16 - 7:21
    you've exposed yourself
    in a way that is indecent.
  • 7:21 - 7:23
    You've gotta have some dignity.
  • 7:23 - 7:26
    - Thank you so much for watching
    another episode of Elders React.

    we should watch next.
  • 7:32 - 7:35
    - Twerk your hearts out,
    people! I still love you.
  • 7:35 - 7:42
    - Sayonara, au revoir, uh,
    auf Wiedersehen, and that's about it.
  • 7:42 - 7:44
    Thank you.
