Where the Hell is Matt? | dancing like he just don't care around the world

mattwhere.jpgYou know, that guy? The guy who dances badly. The guy who dances so badly but doesn't realize it. The guy who dances so badly and doesn't realize it, while everyone snickers behind his back. The guy who dances so badly, doesn't realize it, even while everyone snickers behind his back, but he doesn't care because he's "dancing like no one's watching"....which is all very good and Oprah-esque and all, but when the guy who dances badly ends up being paid to dance badly around the world, well, he's got the right to call you an ass and call it even.

And here we have WHERE THE HELL IS MATT?. Matt is the guy who dances badly. In fact, he's famed for his very own unique dance -- kinda like Elaine's tortured jig on Seinfeld. In 2006, after a youtube video of his dancing became popular, Stride Gum approached Matt to dance through 39 countries on all 7 continents -- they'd pay, of course. Lucky bastard. His dancing became an Internet hit (no pun intended), winning him fans around the world....

That's when Matt came up with a new idea, where he'd invite his fans to dance with him -- kinda like a Matt-dance-a-thon flash mob. So in 2007, Matt travelled for 14 months and visited 42 countries, and danced with a cast of thousands to create a better, enhanced WHERE THE HELL IS MATT? video.

It's even enough to induce a tear or two, and release the canned heat in your heels tonight, baby!
