Nigerian bellydancer Korra Obidi wowed judges during the So You Think You Can Dance audition on
Korra Obidi told the judges she was having a duet audition with her unborn daughter. Even though the judges tagged the performance a risky one, she made the highlights of the audition and especially wowed the audience and judges.
“Korra, you are definitely one fierce woman, let me tell ya. I can’t wait to see the playback, because I still can’t believe that you can do that,” marveled Murphy.
“You gotta give respect to her. She just did a drop-split and then saved her baby’s life at the same time! … I’ve also never seen a baby pre-birth do choreography,” joked judge Dominic Sandoval. “I’m blown away. I applaud everything you’re about. Congratulations.”
“You are a world-changer, a systems-breaker. There is so much purpose in your choices,” raved Laurieann Gibson. “I mean, I couldn’t even think of being pregnant and dancing!”
And lead judge Nigel Lythgoe declared, “You are inspiring to women. Just because you’re having a baby doesn’t mean you should stop doing what you love. And that’s wonderful.”
