After the first UCLA gymnast routine set to Kendrick Lamar went viral, we now have another ULCA gymnast who is making waves with her Janet Jackson routine.

Remember UCLA gymnast Nia Dennis? You know, the one who went viral just a few weeks ago for her stunning floor routine that was set to songs by Kendrick Lamar, Beyonce, Missy Elliott, and Megan Thee Stallion?

Of course you do, her routine was everywhere on the internet and it was incredibly difficult to miss it.

Anyway, the reason we bring her up is because she’s got some competition on the “gymnastics routine set to a pop legend that’s going viral” front.

Fellow UCLA gymnast Margzetta Frazier is catching a lot of attention for her latest routine that’s set to several Janet Jackson bangers and features nods to the pop legend’s choreography from ‘Nasty’ and ‘If’.

It was a stunning display of athleticism which words can’t adequately describe so you’ll just have to watch the whole thing yourselves and be amazed.

This is far from the first time that Frazier has captured people’s attention with her gymnastics routine as her 2019 voguing-inspired routine was just as stunning, before she then followed that up in 2020 with a sensational soul-inspired routine that left jaws on the floor.

As a cherry on top of this pop-inspired story, Frazier’s routine eventually caught the attention of none other than Janet Jackson herself, who retweeted the dance and tagged Frazier in her post.

Unsurprisingly, Frazier lost it upon finding out about Jackson’s response and tweeted out: ““WOKE UP SCREAMING [crying emojis] I LOVE YOU. I AM SO HAPPY THAT YOU LIKE IT!!! YOU ARE WHY I LOVE TO DANCE.”

It’ll be hard to top this Janet Jackson routine but we’re pretty confident Frazier will find a way – and a new genre or pop legend’s music – to do in come 2022.
