Last night it was "Horror Movie Night" on Dancing with the Stars. Jackson Olson of the Savannah Bananas and his pro dancing parter Emma Slater dressed up as Joaquin Phoenix's Joker, complete with an elaborate Gotham City set behind them.
The duo danced to "That's Life" by Frank Sinatra, which was featured in the Joker movies. You can check out their performance below.
Unfortunately, Jackson Olson got voted off of the show after his Joker performance last night. That's life...
Slow news day? Yes. Perfect type of story for the "Culture" section of Batman News? Also yes. 😅
They did a great job capturing the spirit of the Joker! Sad to see him go.
Iggy he got voted off last night?! That's life...
Very cool! I too pitched Joker cosplay to wardrobe when I was hired as an extra for a music video in 1990. The artist: Marcia Griffith. The song: Billboard chart-topper "Electric Boogie." I was promptly escorted off set and replaced by a methamphetamine addict with an eyepatch.
WalterHamada jokes on them because now you can perform it front and center at every wedding since 1990. I also heard a rumor that you were getting down on the dance floor at Kevin Tsujihara's going away party.
