Dance the whole night!

In one image he was dancing enthusiastically and in the other he was bowing head, ashamed, after the bullies laughed at him "spotted this specimen trying to dance the other week". Those pictures were spotted by Cassandra Fairbanks, from California, on 4chan. She then tweeted them on Thursday, asking help to identify the man, "Anyone know this man or who posted this? There's a huge group of ladies in LA who would like to do something special". On Friday, he was successfully identified as Sean from London and he has been sent VIP invite to dance party in LA. In a later tweet, Ms. Fairbanks said of her group of 1727 women: "We would like to fly him to LA for a VIP dance party with the coolest and most awesome ladies in LA, please help...".Musical superstars like Pharrell Williams, Moby and Andrew W.K have all lent their support to the Londoner now know as Dancing Man. Pharrel asked Cassandra to keep him informed about the party and tweeted to Sean: "Never be ashamed of yourself". He says he'll pay the party. The same warm sentiment was offered by Moby (Richard Melville Hall) who offered his DJ services for free.

No one should ever be ashamed of what they are and how they are. This man is not a professional dancer, neither are the guys that posted the pictures and that horrible comment, the ones that laughed at him because he was dancing and enjoying the concert he was at. No one is perfect, everybody, everyone of us, have our defaults, we shouldn't be ashamed of them, especially when this man, Sean, was just dancing! It's seems that people still don't understand that words hurt, sometimes more than physical pain. Bullying is a huge problem now a days, a lot more now with all the social networks. A lot of people kill themselves because they're being bullied, mocked and insulted, and why? because they are themselves, because of their bodies, because of their religion or their sexuality and, the one that I'll never understand, because the ones who do it consider themselves "normal" but nobody is "normal". What's "normal" in the first place? Everyone is different!
What Cassandra Fairbanks did is really kind, there should be more people like her. All of this have a happy ending thanks to her and all the people that helped her. Sean shouldn't be ashamed of how he dances, nobody should be because the ones that make others feel bad, they aren't worth it and they should be ashamed of doing this.
