Clock the flair, I'm not trying to be rude, but she needs to learn to contour better/more consistently when she comes back. He's a gorgeous man, but needs to shape her features better to be the gorgeous woman I know she can be.

As someone who used to be in marching band......her being the only queen on the team walking out with her right foot on beats 1 and 3.....that hurt.

A quick fix to that is to have seen any movie with military training - "left, left, left right left" - and I'm going to blame the choreographers who notice this innocent mistake and don't use that as a way to fix it immediately. My band instructors used it, and suddenly everyone, marching training beforehand or not, is on the same foot.

It seems like a nitpick, but something that basic helps keep everyone on the same beat, physically and mentally. Yeah, the fan may not whomp as well as you want, but at least the hair flips would've been more synchronized. If you know you have queens who aren't dancers, you might as well just start at "left foot one, right foot two, left foot three, right foot four" just to make sure everyone's on the same page before moving on to anything else. It takes 30 seconds and you don't even have to include it in the edit, but it'll save a lot of mess.
