15 Types Of Lebanese People You Spot Dancing At Parties

Whether you’re at a wedding, a club, a pub, or just a house party, the variety of dancers are pretty much the same. Here are the 15 types of Lebanese people you spot dancing on a night out.

1. The lip-syncer

This person will mouth the words to every song played, even the ones they don’t know. They’ll move their lips way more than any other body part. The night will end like they just finished a live performance, except there is no standing ovation.

2. The belly dancer

Yes, they’re playing English music but she doesn’t care. Shakira who? She will shimmy and shake until she drops, and probably try to compete with the professional belly dancer once she makes an appearance in the venue.

3. The belly dancer, again

In hopes of garnering a few laughs, this guy will put on a show. He’ll tie his shirt over his belly and shake his hips very dramatically. It’s actually very annoying, but his friends will laugh so he doesn’t feel embarrassed.

4. The one with FOMO

Between being sick and last minute outfit changes, this person is really pissed. Their FOMO makes them show up only to stand awkwardly and sway as much as their illness will allow them to.

5. The one with all sex appeal

Oozing with sensuality, this girl makes all the other types envious. Effortlessly, she’ll move along to the music all the while turning heads. There will be gossip of course, but that’s just the price you pay. Work it, girl!

6. The Jagal

He’s more invested in keeping his hair in place than he is with actually dancing and having a good time.

7. The sweaty one

Restless and very energetic, their body is begging them to cool down. The minute they start moving, their skin starts glistening, their t-shirt is already wet, their hair is now frizzy and they’re alternating between keeping up with the music and fanning themselves.

8. The one who’s here on serious business

The minute the DJ starts playing their jam, she’s already tying her hair up and losing the accessories, and he’s rolling up his sleeves and putting out his cigarette. It’s time for some serious business.

9. The texter

Either on the phone with their partner or parents, they spend the night texting them back and trying to listen to their voice notes.

10. The one with an extra pair of flats

Heels are her sworn enemy – understandable. But for the times when she can’t avoid wearing heels, she’ll have an extra pair of flats that she’ll immediately change into and continue dancing the night away.

11. The last one standing

The friends left, the DJ left, everyone else at the party left, but they’re still standing. We love resistance.

12. The cheerful clapper

To compensate for their lack of dancing skills, they’ll clap along to everything and for everyone.

13. The one in white shoes

He’s wearing white sneakers, again, and he’s fighting anyone that gets too close. Looking forward for some drama during the night? Step on his shoes and see what happens.

14. The one doing it for the ‘gram

Only here because they haven’t posted on their Instagram stories in a while, and so they’re trying to make it up for their followers. They will leave nothing out and will make sure they have everything on cam, lowkey really skillful citizen journalists.

15. The one on the lookout for who’s looking

Every dance move or sip of their drink is followed by a complete scan of the room. Do they want someone to be watching them or do they hate it? You can’t really tell. Either way, they make everyone around very self-conscious.
