Misty Copeland

I enjoyed seeing Misty Copeland's episode of "A Day in the Life"on Hulu the other day. I love seeing dancers hard at work, and the rigor of ballet and the dedication it demands can be truly inspiring.

And then I watched her performance with Prince...


Why does she have to play the submissive pretty thing? Ballerinas are power houses and from A Day In the Life it's clear this woman has some real creative depth. Here, she's obviously encumbered by that skirt and I suppose her contract with the uber-popstar. So frustrating to watch. I know I put this up, but go watch the tv show instead.
