The rise of [viral mockery](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fight-teeth) is a growing phenomenon, and this video is the latest example. Now, before anyone gets worked up about me poking fun at Christian pop singers, a disclaimer: The singers in this video aren’t bad dancers. In fact, they nail their choreography. It’s just that the choreography is terrible! Watch as [iconic dance moves](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dance-it) are all brought together for three minutes.
