Dance Shows Updates- Bring It!

Last month I started a post "mini series" called Dance Shows Updates, featuring updates on reality dance shows. The first was about Dance Moms and the recent new TV special Dance Moms: The Reunion. You can read about it here: https://starsparklex.blogspot.com/2024/07/dance-shows-updates-dance-moms-reunion.html

In that post I also mentioned that there are a couple of spin-offs  from the TV programme Bring It!, The Dolls and its prequel Dianna , and that's what I'm focusing on today.

Bring It! is an American reality show following the dance team Dancing Dolls, who are based in Jackson, Mississippi and their coach Dianna Williams, known as Coach D. The dance style that the students perform is hip hop majorette. 

The show premiered in March 2014 and ran for 5 seasons (or series as we also call them in the UK). The last season was shown in March 2018. We saw the first one in the UK (they showed it on Lifetime UK which no longer exists) and I think the second one later. I would have liked to see more series. While it hasn't been officially cancelled, I don't think there are any plans to bring it back (lol), due to the new show/s.

My first post about Bring It! was in 2014, as part of a post called Dance Videos. You can see it here (scroll down): https://starsparklex.blogspot.com/2014/08/dance-videos.html

I also wrote a post featuring a stand battle from the show in 2015: https://starsparklex.blogspot.com/2015/12/bring-it-video.html

And watch the trailer for S1 of Bring It! here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WlM1BryXEFA

Now Dianna aka Coach D, has returned for two new shows, The Dolls and Dianna. I had originally thought it was just Dianna but it's actually a prequel to the new TV series The Dolls.

Dianna is described as a 3-part prequel reunion special, where Dianna "unpacks the trauma of her last 10 years on and off television". She is joined by some of the mums. Both programmes are showing on Brandon TV (BTV) which is a worldwide streaming app.

Side note: Brandon Studio says that they are currently focused on bringing reality TV queens back to TV and they also have a show called Mad House featuring Dance Moms' teacher Abby Lee Miller!

Dianna premiered in March and The Dolls started in June. Here's a teaser for both shows:

 


And here's another trailer for The Dolls:



It seems crazy that both Bring It! and Dance Moms were 10 years ago now! It's nice that Dianna and the Dancing Dolls have made a return to the public eye. I'd like to see the new shows, but I don't have BTV. Hopefully we'll eventually get them on mainstream TV. DD4L! :)

Were you a Bring It! fan? What do you think of the new shows?

South Indian Videos

I've written several Bollywood posts this year but I don't feature South Indian music/films as much. So today I'm sharing some music and dance videos from Tollywood ( the Telugu language film industry) and Kollywood (the Tamil language film industry). :) Oo Antava Mawa- Pushpa- Dance Cover by Sonali First up is a dance cover of the song Oo Antava Mawa..Oo Oo Antava from the 2021 Tollywood film Pushpa: The Rise- Part 1 . I previously featured a dance cover of Oo Antava Mawa in a Dance Videos post in August last year. That one is by Rang De and you can see it here: https://starsparklex.blogspot.com/2023/08/dance-videos.html This cover is by Indian choreographer Sonali Bhaduria, from LiveToDance with Sonali and was uploaded in January 2022. It's a shorter video.   For more on Pushpa and to watch the official Oo Antava Mawa video, check out my Tollywood Videos Round-up 2 post from September 2023: https://starsparklex.blogspot.com/2023/09/tollywood-videos-round-up-2.html ...

Weekly Music Video

Sorry there wasn't a 2nd post last week, I was going through a bit of a stressful time and didn't manage to get one finished. :) This week's video is I CONDEMN by Australian singer and rapper The Kid LAROI . It was the first single from the deluxe version of his second album BEFORE I FORGET. The original album was released in January and the deluxe version came out on 24th April. It contains 9 extra tracks, including  I CONDEMN and latest single PIECES. I wasn't aware that there was a deluxe version until I saw that some new songs had appeared on Spotify! I like BEFORE I FORGET and my favourite songs from the original version are ME + YOU, JULY,  COME DOWN and RATHER BE featuring Australian rapper and singer Lithe . One of my fave songs on the deluxe version is QUIT YOU, and I also like HOLD STILL and I CONDEMN. The newest single PIECES came out on out the same day as the album. I CONDEMN was released on 17th April. As with the songs on the original BEFORE I FORGET, it...

K-pop Comebacks- BTS

Sorry the 2nd post is later again this week, I didn't manage to get it finished yesterday. :) Last month I started a mini series called K-pop Comebacks, featuring the comebacks of K-pop groups during 2026. The first one was about BLACKPINK and you can see it here:  https://starsparklex.blogspot.com/2026/03/k-pop-comebacks-blackpink.html Today I'm focusing on BTS (one of the most popular Korean boybands ). They debuted in 2013 and are a 7-member group, made up of leader RM, formerly known as Rap Monster (real name Kim Nam Joon), SUGA (Min Yoon Gi), Jin (full name Kim Seok Jin), j-hope (Jung Ho-seok), Jimin (Park Ji Min), V (Kim Tae Hyung) and Jungkook (Jeon Jung Kook). * Since then, the boys have been very successful, not only in South Korea but internationally. They are probably one of the most well-known K-pop bands worldwide.  In June 2022, the group took a break while the members served their  mandatory military service in Korea and have also been concentrat...
