Adam Greenberg takes on the Lemon Dance Challenge at Tyler Ann's studio, dancing to N.E.R.D.'s "Lemon" featuring Rihanna. He riffs on his love for Pharrell, his own coordination, and the choreography in real time, mixing self-aware humor with spontaneous commentary throughout the rehearsal.
Listen, I'm a huge fan of Pharrell. Love the new song by N.E.R.D., Lemon featuring Rihanna. There's a Lemon Dance Challenge, and if you think that I'm not gonna take up this dance challenge, then you're wrong. I came here to see my friend Tyler Ann and her Tyler Ann School of Dance. I figured this would be the best place to figure out how to do it. The Lemon! 3, 4. I'm already scared. Okay, really helpful with the mirror, by the way. Oh yeah. Oh no, lemon dance. Yeah, 84 more moves. The beat walk. 3. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, right, like I'm— I'm throwing that. Yeah, the shake. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, but use your heels. So just go like this with your heels and things will shake. It all shakes, it all shakes from the belly button to— oh, shaking elbow. Yeah, yeah, shaking elbow. Yes. Whoa! Ah! Ah! Crazy how you do this on a daily basis. Find the beat. Find it. I don't know where it is. Yeah. Do your knees hurt? I got to dance more. I got to dance more. Wait, you step here? Yeah. All right. Find it. Ow! Are you a dance teacher or something? Always think of what comes next when you're doing the other move. Right. So one second, should I be watching in here? Should I be looking at myself? Look at you. Look at me. Yeah, but I will say you will never learn it yourself if I don't look at myself. That's deep. I'm joking. I know how to brace my head. Okay, good. And then you do a little seal. And then you do, ha, ha. Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes. I can, if I wanted to, I could easily backslide. You make it look so easy. Oh my, everything. Not bad, man. Not bad. Give him a little attitude. So. It was this close to Fargo. I'm just hitting because I went bop and it almost came right at it. But we're okay. And lots of good ventilation. Yes. I know I don't fart, but girls don't fart. No. Don't think so much. Yeah, that's right. Just waiting for my turn like the fawns. Woo! This bitch tastes like lunch, but it's running from bananas and it's running from the fonz. But every day, hey, lemonade. I was afraid once I graduate, would I be okay? So I prayed and I prayed. It's Rihanna, my constellation in space. Worst please, doesn't spark, couldn't chase. Bath salt, bite speakers in the face. Bath salt, bite speakers in the face. Bath, bath salt, bite speakers in the face. Bath, bath salt. We ain't finished. I told you we won't stop. Ain't nobody been there like Young, which is winning. Way below to the top, the wave rung died. Tell the paparazzi get the lens right. Got the window down top, won't lie. Got the hazard on, only going fast. You can catch me bouncing around, bouncing around, bouncing. You could catch me. What? Wait a minute. What? Wait a minute. What? Wait a minute. Wait, wait a minute. What? Wait a minute. What? Wait a minute. What? Wait a minute. What? Wait a minute. What? Wait a minute. I'm dancing so hard it confused my English.
