Sugar and Spice and Everything Nice, that's what awful floor music is made of.
No, seriously. When I was at classics, I leaned over to the person I came with and said "Wow, I hope Bailie Key doesn't have a cutesy floor routine."
"What do you mean?" she asked.
And then the music started:
"This," I said, "This is exactly what I mean by cutesy."
Bailie Key is a phenomenal gymnast. Kim Zmeskal is an excellent choreographer. This music, however, makes me want to crawl in a hole and never come out.
Lizzy LeDuc's 2009 routine made me want to scream as well, and Dominique Moceanu was one of the biggest culprits of all.
Yes, I hear you all, "But it's age appropriate."
If I wanted to see a 12 year old perform an age appropriate routine, I'd go to Level 8 states, not Jesolo. This routine isn't age appropriate for Bailie. She performs a triple for god's sake! So why is she dancing to carnival music?!
I feel like Bailie could keep the same routine, with similar choreography and just change her music and this routine would be 1000x better!
