Last week on Dancing with the Stars, guest judge Billy Porter told Jason Mraz that he found it distracting that the singer mouths the words of the songs he is dancing to.
Well, over the weekend, it appears that Mraz explained why he not only smiles with his hips but also dances with his mouth.
Mraz posted the above video and wrote, “With so much dancing going on, my sister asked if I still knew how to play the guitar. Yes, I still play music! I still have my songwriting practice to keep my heart in tune. Some weeks on the show, I try to learn the song I am dancing to. (Last week was Higher Love.) This little study has helped me appreciate and understand the songs even more, thus deepening the dance around it.”
So, if you are going to play the song on the guitar, chances are you are going to sing along. Therefore, if you hear it, you are going to mouth the words to it too. And for Porter, at least, he didn’t play the air guitar while he was dancing!
Which Taylor Swift song is going to compete with tonight? We will just have to tune into ABC at 8p to find out.
