The Waackers were asked to share a private performance for the original Material Girl herself... Madonna!!! It was an incredible night for The Waackers and well worth the blood and sweat….
Monday March 29th, 2010 Kumari Suraj received a text from a friend (and one of Madonna’s dancers) asking her and The Waackers to create a show for a private performance in front of the original Material Girl herself, Madonna! This request was based on The Waackers showdown battle against The London Waacktitioners Sunday march 28th at Madame Jojo’s in London.
Thrilled by the opportunity Kumari and The Waackers set to work immediately to create an amazing 5 minute show in 2 days for MAJ. As Miss Coco (Celeste Zarpas) says all the time, “We work well under pressure and in crisis”. An inside joke of the crew.
Everything was top secret, except for the actual day (Thursday) even up to the very last minute. Madonna and her intimate crew of dancers and friends wanted no photos no paparazzi! Just dance! Thursday night The Waackers rushed from their tech rehearsal for B.supreme at The Royal Festival Hall around 10:30pm to meet their contact at the Tottenham Court station in London’s west End.
When the crew arrived at the station the contact wasn’t there. Kumari Suraj then received a text to proceed to Club Runway on New Oxford st. and to make it there by 11pm or else!! Top secret suspense!
Fortunate enough the crew made it in time. It was a pleasant surprise to see some of London’s finest in attendance. Everyone from Clara to Dance2xs to some of London’s best freestylers.
The vibe of dance was just right when Madonna arrived. Everyone was hype and she seemed relaxed and ready to enjoy some good dancing.
Kumari Suraj was told repeatedly by her original contact, and Madonna’s personal assistant for this show, that Maj was overly excited about seeing The Waackers live!! She had been told so much about The Waackers from LA that she giggled and screamed throughout the performance.
Verdict after the show?!? Madonna LOVES The Waackers!!!!!!!! Good things to come for the hard working crew this year!!!! Thanks again to our friend in London for the amazing opportunity and believing in us!
***The Waackers who auditioned - Kumari Suraj, Miss Coco (Celeste Zarpas), Clark Kent (Lashaun Price), Cha Cha Bones (Frances Nieves), Bambina (Raquel Cabrera), Junko Sasaki.
THE WAACKERS LOVE MADONNA TOO!!!!
