No stranger to presenting bizarre and sometimes controversial fashion advertisements, Diesel has been having a ‘Dance Party’ contest featuring hooded dancers wearing Diesel underwear.
You could very well call Diesel's dance competition an ‘Abu Ghraid-inspired’ dance contest because contestants introduce themselves while sitting on a chair and then a black hood is put over their heads.
Diesel Planet explains that their ‘Dance Party’ is an expose into the world of underground endurance dancing; however, there are a multitude of underground music and dance styles and my search for underground hooded dancers proved fruitless. But, that doesn’t matter, the Diesel ‘Dance Party’ contest, as disturbing as some my find it, is very cutting-edge.
The Diesel underground dance competition is into episode 4 which can be viewed at their website, episode 5 will announce the winner. For now, you can enjoy episode 2.
