A backup dancer is a performer who dances with or behind the lead performers in a live musical act or in a music video. Their movements (especially where there are many moving together) provide a visual symmetry and rhythm to accompany the music.
Some notable performers began their music careers as backup dancers for other artists, including:
- Tupac Shakur (for the Digital Underground)
- Jennifer Lopez (for the New Kids on the Block and Janet Jackson's 1993 video "That's the Way Love Goes")
- Cris Judd (for ex-wife Jennifer Lopez' 2001 video "Love Don't Cost a Thing")
- Rain (for Park Jin-Young and Park Ji-Yoon)
- Michael K. Williams
- Kevin Federline (for Britney Spears, Michael Jackson, Justin Timberlake, Gwen Stefani, Pink, Christina Milian, and LFO)
