5 Things to Know About Demi Lovato Dancer & Choreographer Jojo Gomez 5 Things to Know About Demi Lovato Dancer & Choreographer Jojo Gomez 1/2/2018 by Regina Cho Tim Mosenfelder/Getty Images Jojo Gomez and Demi Lovato perform during WiLD 94.9 FM's iHeartRadio Jingle Ball at SAP Center on Nov. 30, 2017 in San Jose, Calif. Demi Lovato shared a sweet New Year’s kiss with one of her dancers after her performance in Miami on Sunday night, catching fans' attention. It turned out to be a great time to shine a light on the woman behind the smooch, Jojo Gomez, who is a well-known choreographer with an A-list celebrity clientele and runs a successful dance class in Los Angeles. Gomez has worked with Justin Bieber , the Backstreet Boys , Tinashe and more, but the best thing about her is her journey as a professional dancer. Here are some things you should know about the talented choreographer: Demi Lovato Lands Second Pop Songs No. 1 With 'Sorry Not Sorry' She moved from New Jersey to California immediately after her high school graduation to pursue her dancing career. Gomez knew early on that she wanted to be a professional dancer, so college was not the main thing on her mind as senior year came to an end. The day after her high school graduation in 2011, she flew out to Los Angeles and started looking for an agent. It was extremely helpful that her parents supported her every step of the way and have always taken her goals seriously. She was signed to a talent agency within a few weeks and has never looked back ever since. In 2011, she danced in the Britney Spears tribute at the VMAs. Gomez’s first professional audition was a huge one, but she decided to take on the “go big or go home” attitude from the very start. After killing her audition, she landed a spot to dance at the VMAs in 2011, the year Britney Spears received a tribute and won the Michael Jackson Vanguard Award. This was a monumental accomplishment, as Britney Spears has always been Gomez’s biggest inspiration. Her YouTube channel , where she posts videos of her classes and routines, now has more than 400,000 subscribers and 50 million views. Most of Gomez’s bookings come as a result of being found on either YouTube or Instagram, so she pridefully views her social media as her résumé. She frequently uploads videos from her class at Millennium Dance Complex in Los Angeles, where her classes sell out almost every week. Plenty of videos of her choreography have gone viral, including her takes on “Flawless” by Beyoncé , “Me Too” by Meghan Trainor and “Work” by Rihanna . Lovato even paid a personal visit to one of her classes after hearing about Gomez’s take on “Sorry Not Sorry.” She choreographed Tinashe’s music video for “Company.” When Tinashe’s manager found Gomez via Instagram and contacted her, Gomez initially thought it was a prank. The choreographer says she vibed with Tinashe as a sister, and the instant connection was no surprise considering they are both dancers and are very close in age. The two also have similar styles in terms of choreography and fashion. When the video was finally released, Gomez said it felt like a dream come true and she cried for days. Tinashe and Gomez have maintained a great friendship since then. She started her own brand after constantly being criticized for her body. After being told the same thing at several auditions, that she was “talented but needed to lose weight,” Gomez decided to channel that frustration into creating her own path to block out the negative noise. She stopped relying on auditions and started to create more of her own content to share. Along the way, Gomez has been very vocal about body positivity and aims to inspire other dancers, especially young female ones, to love their bodies. .

  • Let It Go Lyrics
    Let It Go ‘Let it Go’ Lyrics Idina Menzel’s ‘Let It Go’ Lyrics The snow glows white on the mountain tonight Not a footprint to be seen A kingdom of isolation And it looks like I’m the queen The wind is howling like this swirling storm inside Couldn’t keep it in, Heaven knows I tried Don’t let them in, don’t let them see Be the good girl you always have to be Conceal, don’t feel, don’t let them know Well, now they know Let it go, let it go Can’t hold it back anymore Let it go, let it go Turn away and slam the door I don’t care what they’re going to say Let the storm rage on The cold never bothered me anyway It’s funny how some distance makes everything seem small And the fears that once controlled me can’t get to me at all It’s time to see what I can do To test the limits and break through No right, no wrong, no rules for me I’m free Let it go, let it go I’m one with the wind and sky Let it go, let it go You’ll never see me cry Here I stand and here I’ll stay Let the storm rage on My power flurries through the air into the ground My soul is spiraling in frozen fractals all around And one thought crystallizes like an icy blast I’m never going back, the past is in the past Let it go, let it go And I’ll rise like the break of dawn Let it go, let it go That perfect girl is gone Here I stand in the light of day Let the storm rage on The cold never bothered me anyway Demi Lovato’s ‘Let It Go’ Lyrics Let it go, let it go Can’t hold it back anymore Let it go, let it go Turn my back and slam the door The snow glows white on the mountain tonight

  • Sam Fischer & Demi Lovato New Single 'What Other People
    SAM FISCHER & DEMI LOVATO NEW SINGLE ‘WHAT OTHER PEOPLE SAY’ OUT NOW SAM FISCHER ANNOUNCED AS YOUTUBE’S FIRST ‘ARTIST ON THE RISE’ FOR 2021 Following the huge success of his global smash hit This City and recent project Homework, Sam Fischer has teamed up with Demi Lovato to release his new single What Other People Say out now via RCA Records. Listen HERE. Written by Sam before his single This City became a hit, it was a song he always knew would be a duet and was blown away when Demi Lovato became the perfect person to accompany him on vocals. Written about a feeling of being alone and not wanting to let people down, the pairing takes two different lives and perspectives and unites them in one message of human experience, emotion and togetherness, so they are alone with one another in the song. It is a truly special track with a powerful, moving and relatable chorus and is the next official single release for Sam since This City. Sam says; “What Other People Say is a confession, realizing how far away you can get from who you are in an effort to be liked. It’s about the pressures of society and how getting caught up with the wrong things can change you.” Demi says; “This song is a reflection on what it’s like to lose who you truly are in an effort to please other people and society. It’s why I wanted to make this song with Sam – ultimately it’s about two humans coming together to connect and find solutions to their problems.” Alongside the announcement of the single, Sam Fischer has also shared that he has been chosen as YouTube’s first ‘Artist on the Rise’ for 2021, which follows previous winners Mabel, Aitch, Freya Ridings, Mahalia, Beabadoobee and Celeste.

  • SONGS to SAVE the WORLD by the Official Unraveling Playlist by Elizabeth Norris
    SONGS TO SAVE THE WORLD BY The Official Unraveling Playlist By Elizabeth Norris 1. “Bulletproof” by La Roux: I love this song. The music is so uplifting. Whenever I’m faced with having to do something that seems impossible, this song makes me feel invincible. 2. “Skyscraper” by Demi Lovato: This is one of my guilty-pleasure songs. It’s upbeat, catchy, easy for me to sing (without sounding too off-key), and it’s about nothing being able to tear you down. 3. “Far from Over” by Rev Theory: The chorus says it all. When it feels like whatever I’m up against is far from over, I know I still can’t give up—I have to keep going until I turn the corner. 4. “Never Too Late” by Three Days Grace: I love the message of this song: No matter how the world changes or how hopeless the world seems, it’s never too late to turn things around. 5. “Bleed It Out” by Linkin Park: Every time I hear this song, I have the urge to get up and do something, and not just anything, but something that I know is tough. 6. “The Edge of Glory” by Lady Gaga: In an interview, Lady Gaga said this song was about your last moment on Earth, the moment of truth. To me that makes it about what you do with that moment. 7. “Not Afraid” by Eminem: I heard my first Eminem song in high school, and I was immediately hooked by how much he could say in just one song.
