In a hilarious Evolution of Dad Dancing skit, the Governor of New Jersey Chris Christie joined Jimmy Fallon on Late Night. Jimmy Fallon has done several 'evolution of' bits, from rap with Justin Timberlake to previous dad dancing instalments. In this particular bit the funny pair can be seen in high-worn khakis with tucked in polo shirts, brown loafers and in Jimmy's case, a gray wig and mustache.
The Evolution of Dad Dancing consists of many groan-worthy moves like the standard 'Belt Grab,' the 'Passionate Elliptical' and 'the Lawnmower.' From there it turns into more elaborate moves including the 'Don't Make Me Turn this Car Around.' Then they move into more politically themed dance moves to suit Chris Christie, such as 'the Republican Convention,' 'the Democratic Convention' and the 'This Bridge is Closed.'
