by Ali Taghavi on June 8, 2010

Did not win!
The first price at the Jägermeister-dance competition went to some booty shaking girls : /

But 1000 thanks for all your support :D
It’s been really flattering to get your emails.
Love,
Ali

Hey guys, a few weeks ago we entered a competition at a club where they put you in a tiny box and let you dance to random music.

The winners get a trip to New York to visit some of the clubs there. We want to Lindy Bomb those places ;)

Here is how you can vote for us:

1. Click on: http://www.youtube.com/user/jaegermeisterdance.
2. Click on the left orange button that says “Ich bin über 18″ (= I am over 18)
3. On the next page click the middle button that says “Abstimmen”
4. type “7364″ in the search field
5. hit “Los” to search and find our video
6. click on our video to watch and “LIKE” it!

Last we checked we were on 3rd place. Please help us win. We need at least another 50 votes within the next 3 days. You can vote once a day ;)

Swingingly yours
Ali & Katja
