Mum and son’s dance at wedding takes a turn after Soulja Boy comes on
A mum and her son have been praised for their ‘priceless’ dance at his wedding.
Over the years, we’ve seen a fair few newlyweds go viral after managing to pull off a fully choreographed first dance, but seeing a groom and his mum is a new one on me. Check it out:
In the funny clip, the man and his mum can be seen dancing together, before the song switches to 'Crank That' by Soulja Boy while he continues to move around the dance floor, his poor mum appears to be stood around awkward looking on.

But all of a sudden she joins in and the pair really throw themselves into the track, flawlessly pulling off the 'Crank That' dance in a way that would make any millennial proud.
The song then switches up to 'Greased Lightnin'' as they continue to dance but the medley - and their excellent dancing - isn’t over yet, as they carry on throwing shapes as The Weeknd’s 'Blinding Lights' comes on, before it rounds out with 'Beat It' by Michael Jackson. Superb.
A sweet text overlay on the clip reads: “Mother and son dance at wedding. This is just priceless. The love between a mother and son is unbreakable.”
The clip was uploaded to TikTok, where it has since gone viral racking up more than a million views and pulling in plenty of praise - particularly for the mother of the groom and, let’s be honest, it’s easy to see why.
Commenting on the video one person said: “Momma was the star of the whole show!”
Another said: The way she committed to Soulja Boy took me out! Go mom!”
A third wrote: “She did so good acting like she didn’t know what was going on! I was like, ‘aw don’t just ditch her’ then BAM.”
While someone else added: “Mom acting like she doesn't know what's going on and then killed it on the dance floor.” Agreed.
A fifth fan pointed out: “The amount of time they had to spend together to get this right makes my heart happy.”
One woman joked: “Does she have any more sons to marry off? I want this in my life.”
Other comments were from mums who said they were now determined to do something similar on their son’s big day, with one woman saying she’d already asked her son even though he was only 14.
Well, to be fair, I reckon it took a lot of practice, might as well get cracking now guys.
