Kamala Harris was ridiculed online Saturday for busting out her “granny moves” during a White House party she hosted celebrating the 50th anniversary of hip-hop.
Critics pounced on the vice president for revolving through a series of tired, bare-minimum shuffles at the outdoor fete.
“Kamala Harris with the granny moves at her 50th Anniversary of Hip-Hop party,” political commentator Anthony Brian Logan said on X, formerly known as Twitter.
“Pure cringe,” another user wrote, as another called it the “Cackle Shuffle” in an apparent reference to the vice president’s laugh.
One commenter simply said “yuck.”
The vice president seemingly couldn’t hold back during the hip-hop fete when the DJ started playing Q-Tip’s 1999 smash hit “Vivrant Thing.”

Dressed in hot pink slacks and a 90s-esque neon blouse, the 58-year-old stiffly bopped in place and nodded her head to the music with a stifled smile on her face, video shows.
“What?” Harris mouthed before swinging her arms in the classic “Roll It” move.
Harris tried to sing along to the Billboard chart-topper but didn’t appear to know the words besides the chorus.

Ultimately, the second-in-command settled on a simple dance pattern — waving one hand in the air while sashaying from one foot to the other.
Some online wags saw a clip of the VP’s footwork and couldn’t resist the opportunity to lambaste the dancing Democrat for enjoying a music-related party while the country deals with a plethora of issues, including inflation and the wake of the devastating Maui fires.
“Dance Kamala as Hawaiians are still lamenting, baby!” one X user said.

“Her dance moves are on a par with her skill level in dealing with our border crisis,” wrote another.
One critic blasted the politician with a simple, yet devastating nickname: “Kringemala Harris.”
The wince-worthy moves were not the first time Harris displayed that generated long-lasting Internet chatter.

She was relentlessly mocked in June after Bravo host Andy Cohen released a clip of her stiffly leaning back and bopping her head as he showed her Kylie Minogue’s song “Padum.”
“I like it, I like it!” she said before devolving into cackles.

Interesting times. When I was a kid in the 70's, there were so few female politicians of all races who were democrats( or liberals/leftists)one could fap to. That has really changed.

 

[Complex]

Where's her white husband?

 

[peterlongshort]

I’m not a Kamala fan but I don’t see the problem. Standard rich people dance.

 

[fu2]

I guess I got granny moves too then because that's how I prefer to dance. Ain't nobody got time to be icing my ankles trying to impress people and shit

The commenter said ‘she doesn’t know the words besides the chorus’. Well shit, who in the world knows the words to ‘Vivrant Thing’ besides Q-Tip?

 

[TREES]

She's 58 and in the public eye. What do they expect her to do start twerking like Megan.

 

[PsiBorg]

I bet she danced a lot better when Montel Williams was hitting that a couple of decades ago.

 

[jasonblacc]

She 60
That’s granny age

 

[KoolJay]

Wait a minute... It must have been Younginz that wrote that.. I KNOW she wasn't suppose to twerk or no shyt like that? Maybe because she didn't say "AYYYYEEEEEEEEEEE". She looked like what I would expect from any woman her age. Now, those pants just under her titties are something different. She went to the REAL HU, so she definitely knows how to party and what mumbo sauce on fried chicken from a carryout taste like...

The bullshit machine is ramping up more nonsense

 

[ballscout1]

Stoopid ass peppas..She is damn near 60 what type of moves do they expect ?

 

[An RnB Thug]

Where's her white husband?

Here he is....

 

[Don Coreleone]

I don't know given her ass is from Oakland and went to Howard. I would expect her to know a lot of dances. My sister who is around Kamala's age told me all the Beyonce dance is some dance they used to do in the 70's called the four corners.

 

[Mrfreddygoodbud]

Jeebus Christo,

[robfmnola]

What's the issue? Expecting her to twerk?

 

[Van Allen]

NOTHING WRONG WITH HER DANCING.......

 

[jawnswoop]

People calling her a granny when she isn't even in her 70s or 80s.

 

[footloose]

What's the issue? Expecting her to twerk?

Performative. Gearing up for election season again

 

[ballscout1]

People calling her a granny when she isn't even in her 70s or 80s.

most of the people talking great granny or great-great granny is 70s or 80s......grannys are 40s and 50s

knowing them and still being able to do them are 2 different things

 

[jawnswoop]

most of the people talking great granny or great-great granny is 70s or 80s......grannys are 40s and 50s

Yup, because these fast ass girls are getting pregnant younger and younger and that shit is crazy.

 

[doug777]

I guarantee, Outnumbered on Fox News will criticize Harris for this, not for her dance moves but for dancing at all "while the American people are suffering under Bindenomics", Harris Faulkner will be the most vocal, because, Fox News and their rabid viewers love it when Blacks attack other Blacks.

 

[gene cisco]

I don't like her at all, but fuck do folks expect from an old, square fake chick? Ain't like this when she was in college smoking blunts and listening to 2pac.

But hey, this is politics for politically insane America. Make fun of the otherside for everything while they defend everything.

 

[^SpiderMan^]

This is clearly racist. Why is there an expectation for her to be a good dancer? Was Barbara Bush supposed to be able to break it down on the dance floor if Rock n Roll came on?

 

[durham]

Shit is ridiculous. Most 60 year old women in America can barely walk the aisles at the local grocery store.

She has aged very well. Anything Black gets ridiculed for something as ridiculous as the color of your suit

That dude ABL is a coon

 

[34real]

1.its good look for the performer's of the 50th it helps them out financially and spreads the pot around.

2.Its a terrible look for us cause it's basically saying without saying it that all you have to do is turn the music on and dance and you'll grab their attention.....noooo motherfucker where's my reparations, where's my defense money against white, Latino, Asian and others hate against black Americans, against redlining, against unfair legal system, against bad loans,black colleges getting their fair share?????We can boogie after those issues along with a host of others are taken care of first Kamala.

 

[knightmelodic]

No matter what she does people (white, black, reichpublican, racists) are going to find fault. She's a political target.

She's doing nothing wrong. Smooth with it. And at least she's on the one.

 

[Kaotic]

THIS ^^^

My late Nana was 44 when my big sister was born in 1963.

 

[ballscout1]

1) motherfucker where's my reparations,

2) where's my defense money against white, Latino, Asian and others hate against black Americans,

3) against redlining, against unfair legal system,

4) against bad loans,

3) black colleges getting their fair share

We can boogie after those issues along with a host of others are taken care of first Kamala.

1) You ain't getting no reparations from a white government when you have no financial or political power to force the issue. But keep saying fuck the vote

2) Defense money? What you gone pay them to like you ? Geronimo Pratt used their training to learn how to defend. White supremacists and Latin Gangs are doing the same thing...WTF is defense money ? I bet that sounded profound when you said it to yourself though.

3) Did you attend a Black College and if so as an alumni are you involved in their funding? What about all the other black folks who got their undergrad from HBCU but got their advanced degrees at PWIs and became successful and participate as alumni from the PWI and do jack shit for the HBCU...If you didn't do you contribute anyway? Its just better to stomp your feet and grit your teeth waiting for them to kindly make sure fair shares are given.


She was at a party why can't she relax. Ain't like mofokrs worried if the fries are hot and the trash cans emptied of their days off.
