AMAZING DANCE VIDEO TO HALSEY'S I AM NOT A WOMAN, I'M A GOD
Continuing the impressive content roll out for Halsey’s new album — If I Can’t Have Love, I Want Power — DanceOn presents our latest Artist Request for lead single, “I am not a woman, I’m a god”. Nicole Kirkland’s exciting choreography comes to life as Director Ryan Parma takes us inside a boring office setting that’s about to get a whole lot more interesting. Nicole is joined by dancers Yai Ariza, Donovan Gibbs, Bailey Pina, and Tristan Edpao in this exciting, dance-fueled fever dream. Check out the video and exclusive interview with choreographer and featured dance influencer Nicole Kirkland.
What is the Artist Request video for “I am not a woman, I’m a god” about?
Nicole Kirkland (Choreographer and Featured Dancer): This video is about a woman being ignored and looked over in the workplace. She uses her new superpower to get the men at her work to do what she wants.
How did you use choreography to tell the story?
NK: I used choreography to tell the story. In the beginning we used simple hand movements to show the men not listening to me while a meeting was taking place. Towards the middle of the video the main female character is having fun with her powers as she controls the men. This is my favorite part of the choreography because it shows dancing mixed with “human” movement.
How did you find the dancers for this project?
NK: All the dancers I picked for this video I have used before on other projects. I trust them to get my vision across. Yai Ariza was in my viral “Wap” video. Donovan Gibbs, Tristan Edpao and Bailey Pina I have used on many different concept videos on my YouTube channel like “Whoopty” and my #SavetheChildren video.
What does the song “I am not a woman, I’m a god” mean to you?
NK: The phrase “I am not a woman, I’m a god” reiterates the power women have. Sometimes with all the pressures of society we can forget our power and our strength. This phrase reminds us of that!
If you could do any future collaboration with Halsey, what would it be?
NK: I would love to help create a music video or live performance for Halsey. I have always been a fan of her work, and I think we could make some really cool art together.

Black Eyed Peas' Will.I.Am & India Love drop the 2019 bop of the spring, #PRETTY
Black Eyed Peas frontman, Will.I.Am, teamed up with social media sensation, India Love, to bring us one of the catchiest songs of 2019.
The music video for #PRETTY feels like an awesome nostalgic fusion between the intro fo “Clarissa Explains it All” and something from the Lil Kim catalogue in the mid-90s.
