My make-up here was done by my childhood friend @zamoh48. 😁🙂 She is a make up artist as well and we went to Ekhaya leMfundo Primary School together where we were both amagosa for Indlamu that won for Ilembe District on amaCultural Competitions in KZN. 😊 now thinking about it makes me proud, the routine was also choreographed by young girls from UDumo High School and what was mostly significant about it ukuthy indlamu was mostly done by males. Ngokomdabu It was a dance done before and after by ibutho uma selizoya empini. #ubuhlalu #indlamu https://www.instagram.com/p/B7id8tvJ9Nj/?igshid=1ltpxbpfaujo6

Someone was asking about Diamond's fusion dance and I knew from the beginning that I wanted it to be African inspired but I haven't done any in depth research until today...

So anyway, Diamond's fusion dance is based on Indlamu, a traditional Zulu dance from South Africa. It is a war dance and during it, the dancer pulls thier leg over their head and slams it aggressively on the ground to show power and strength. The dancer also falls to the ground in a harsh over-exaggerated fashion. Overall, it's a very loud and dramatic dance... perfect for Diamond the Attention Seeking Drama Queen...

The references I used for the dance poses came from these two videos
