Beyonce and Anne Teresea de Keersmaeker

Beyoncé vs. Anne Teresa de Keersmaeker “Beyoncé is not the worst copycat,” Keersmaeker wrote days after the release of B’s music video celebrating her single “Countdown,” which featured a soigné pastiche of, among other things, some of the legendary choreographer’s signature moves. “She sings and dances very well, and she has good taste!” Even when Beyoncé steals she does it with style. This polite imbroglio made for some of the year’s best dance conversations.
