Transcript

Hi, my name is Rosa and I'm 12 years old.

Hi, my name is Yarah and I'm 14 years old.

Hi, my name is Norah. I'm also 14 years old. We are twins.

And we are Let It Happen from the Netherlands.

How long have you been dancing for?

We have been dancing our whole lives because our parents just love music and we really grew up with it at home, and as long as I can remember we were dancing, so for a very long time now.

What's your favourite kind of music to dance to?

We really love to mix things up, because we love sometimes to dance on soul music, but the other day we liked, like, African music and then hip-hop music, so we really love, like, the combination of different styles. 

Yeah.

What would be the highlight of your dance career so far?

We live, like, really in a small town and we would never imagine we'd be noticed, like, in the US, yeah, like on ellen, and that was so cool.

It was like, I really felt like a celebrity, because she treated us, like, so well. So they picked us up from the hotel and then get, like, this very fancy car. Yeah, and it was like, for a moment before we had to perform I was super nervous, but, you know, when we danced there, yeah, it was so nice.

Is there a celebrity that you would love to dance with?

We would love to dance with Beyoncé. Yeah.

Beyoncé isn't here right now, but you have me instead. So, can you teach me some moves?

Bye, Newsround.

I don't really dance, but I think that Hip Hop is very cool to dance, because anyone can try, there is no right or wrong, but there are also special tricks and moves that just some people can do. That make Hip Hop special.

I don't really like to dance, but my favourite style of music is rock.
