'Glee' star Heather Morris's sexy dance moves: What's the male equivalent?

By now, you may have seen the video of Glee‘s Heather Morris (Brittany) showing whether one can dance to a handful of Esquire‘s picks for the 50 songs the magazine thinks every man should be listening to. (So the answer for The Kills’ “Blood Pressures” is no?) Watch it below. Clearly Morris, who’s been dancing for 23 of her 24 years, is talented (look at those stilettos!) and smokin’ (look again at those stilettos!). But watching it, I started thinking how it’s so much easier for women to know what moves men will find sexy on the dance floor than it is for men to know what women want to see. Let’s imagine Matthew Morrison did a similar video for Cosmo to promote his upcoming solo album: What should that look like? Let’s give men some tips they can really use! Morris tells Esquire she finds men pop-and-locking, ticking, and moonwalking hot. Go.

    As a guy, I can only assume that doing the robot would make women weak in the knees.

    • Meg

      Or a very well-executed worm.

      • rees

        oooh very seksi

      • Cygnus

        Girls love popping…and the hustle.

    • as a gal

      That made me laugh. Thanks Kevin!

    • Katja

      LOL Kevin, it seems like you’re joking, but I LOVE a guy who can bust out some ridiculous robot moves. It’s totally sexy in an adorably nerdy way.

      No it would definitely be the chicken dance.

  • theBigE

    Girl needs to eat a sandwich. And where were the 50 songs? They only played 5-6.

    • SC

      Heather Morris is a world-class professional dancer with abs most people would kill for. She’s not starving herself, she’s at the peak of fitness.

    • Anya

      Yeah, if you’re a professional dancer chances are your body looks like that. She’s just very fit.

    • Ace

      You know, there are plenty of girls in Hollywood (and on Glee *cough*Lea Michele*cough*) who need to eat a sandwich or ten, but Heather isn’t one of them. She has powerful body with incredible muscle tone and a phenomenal @ss. Girl’s about as close to physical perfection as you can get.

        HI WHAT TO DOYOU

    There’s no question she is immensely talented, but she’s not doing anything here that you wouldn’t see at your local strip club. Twenty-three years of dance training isn’t really necessary to get men off.

    • Brett

      Amen to that. If she’s really a “world class professional dancer” (and the term “world class” gets painfully overused), this video really doesn’t show that off.

      • Emily

        I adore her comedic instincts on GLEE, and she does have an amazing body, but I have to concur. If she has had 23 years of experience, this video certainly does not attest to it. All I saw were gyrating hips, come-hither poses, hopping, swaying and shimmying that any teenage girl with a phonecamera and an mp3 player does every weekend in her bedroom.

        Also…why does ever friggin’ female star nowadays has to do some sort of posing or shoot or video in skimpy clothes? Not that I mind, but…is that the only way for actresses to keep themselves relevant? By perpetuating the “women are sex objects” notions that are so prevalent in our culture?

      • Ace

        I feel the same way. This vid doesn’t really show off her (very impressive!!!) skills. It mostly just shows off her hair. It’s hairography.

    • graeme

      That was exactly my thought. There’s not a lot of dancing goin on here. Just a lot of posing and grinding.

  • Cantu

    @theBigE — reading skills for teh loss

  • Tommy

    As a gay guy, I wouldn’t download any of those songs even if Ben Cohen was the one dancing to them.

  • Heather

    That’s easy, check out Mike Chang’s dance from this week’s episode. That dance with the mop was HOT!!

    • steph

      The sexy male equivalent is Harry Shum Jr.

      • Chris

        I agree 100%. He dances so sexy!

      • Ace

        THIS. Harry is freakin’ incredible.

      • Ace

        I also nominate Stephen “TWitch” Boss from SYTYCD. He can make any style of dance work for him.

      • orville

        And Mark Kamemura–my favorite from any season of SYTYCD. That Polynesian dance he did last season? Woooooo……

    • Elysia

      Exactly!!

  • Fred

    Wow. One of the most talented “finds” from Glee. I’m thinking I might have a big ol’ girl crush!

  • econruth

    If a guy is good looking he can “dance the phonebook”. for all I care. Matthew Morrison is HOT.. whether he’s faux break dancing or waltzing with Emma.
    HOWEVER… My vote for someone to do be the male “Heather Morris” for Esquire would be Maks Chmerkovskiy. Please make it happen, Esquire!

    • lagitha

      YES!!!!

      • lagitha

        Yes for Maks–Morrison leaves me cold, but, by god,Maks is man enough for two men.

  • Sally

    The male equivalent is definitely Matt Morrison. Have you seen that guy dance at the Tonys? sexi.. (though Harry is pretty awesome too.)

    • jk

      I actually am kind of skeeved out by Matthew Morrison. Not at all sexy. I think Harry Shum Jr. is way more fun to watch. But econruth, I agree – Maks from DWTS is the ultimate. He is totally not my type but I have the biggest crush on him!

      • steph

        I second you. Matt Morrision creeps me out a little too, but I could watch Harry Shum Jr dance all day.

      • Linda

        You guys did not separate the actor from the character.
        Will Schuester is kinda of skeevy, but Matt Morrison is definitely HOT.

  • elcamino

    big deal.they just took a bunch of the better movements and edited it together. they left out all the sloppy stuff before and after.

    • Ace

      I was thinking the opposite, actually. They edited together all of the sexy gyrating and left out all of the real dancing. Because I’ve seen Heather dance, and she’s better than this.

  • lagitha

    I teach Zumba to middle school PE classes, and I always start by telling the boys that girls like boys who try to dance–it doesn’t really matter if they *can* dance, we just love to see someone manly enough to try. It works every time.

    • Crystal

      Agreed. THIS. So many guys will not even try to dance, if they do something non-skeevy I will be attracted.

      Harry Shum, Jr, is indeed a sexy mo-fo when he dances.

    • Mary Sue

      True. Plus, lets be honest – what men find sexy is pretty much anything with b00bs moving. Sorry, but it’s simple for a woman – especially one that looks like Heather – to be sexy.

      As fo Heather’s dancing – go online and look her up – she’s a phenominal dancer and I am sure Esquire had a lot to do with how the video above was edited.

    • JackieB

      That is so sweet lagitha!! Love it.

  • Jill

    Harry Shum Jr’s dancing is pretty sexy.

  • Jay

    DEADMAU5!

  • Lola

    All I want to know is…Where did Heather get that swimsuit! It’s the perfect one to wear this summer. Not too slutty and not too frumpy.

    • Ace

      I think it’s a leotard.

  • Jasmine

    When I see this, I think,
    “Men aren’t going to care about the songs, their going to look at the sexy girl dancing,”
    She’s an amazing dancer, and I love seeing her dance, it’s amazing!
