“Wednesday”: Dance from the Netflix hit is inspired by Nina Hagen

Wednesday Addams dances at the prom with a fixed gaze and choppy movements – the scene from the Netflix series “Wednesday” goes viral on TikTok and Instagram. Users recreate the dance to Lady Gaga “Bloody Mary”. In the original, Wednesday actress Jenna Ortega dances to The Cramps’ “Goo Goo Muck.”

On The Tonight Show, she told host Jimmy Fallon how she got into the choreography. She thought up the steps herself in two days. In addition to videos of dancing teenagers from the goth scene, they have also influenced singers such as Siouxsie Sioux, Lene Lovich and Nina Hagen. She also borrowed moves from Lisa Loring, who portrayed Wednesday on the TV series The Addams Family.
