Vikings stars flawlessly execute famous dance from iconic comedy film to celebrate intercepting their former QB
The Vikings recreated an iconic movie dance scene on Sunday to celebrate an interception – leaving fans amazed at the stunning choreography between two players.
Linebacker Josh Metellus picked off the Falcons’ Kirk Cousins early in the second quarter, as the former Vikings passer threw his first of two interceptions on the day.
And Metellus wasted little time breaking into the famous ‘White Chicks’ dance battle sequence with teammate Cam Bynum as the rest of Minnesota’s defense cheered them on.
The dance, originally done by the film’s stars Marlon and Shawn Wayans, begins with a high-five and features some in-sync steps before one person is flipped over by the other at the end.
Video of the Vikings dance from their eventual 42-21 win has garnered more than 1.4million views on X, where fans have praised the hilarious moment.
‘CELEBRATION OF THE YEAR,’ one wrote wrote with a crying-laughing emoji.

‘That’s actually fire lol,’ another said.
‘I hate the Vikings but gotta admit they got the best celebrations,’ a third added.
Earlier this season, Bynum and Metellus invoked another iconic movie as they recreated the handshake from ‘Parent Trap.’
The film’s star, Lindsey Lohan, played separated twins Annie James and Hallie Parker, and would perform the handshake with the family’s butler Martin.
She then taught it to Hallie, who lived in California with their dad (Dennis Quaid), to ensure nobody would notice when they swapped places after summer camp.
Aside from Metellus and Bynum bringing their dancing back, it was a great day for the Vikings as they improved to 11-2 on the year.
Sam Darnold threw for 347 yards and five touchdowns, both career highs, and the Minnesota Vikings pulled away from Cousins and the Falcons for their sixth straight victory.

Darnold added another highlight to his brilliant first season in Minnesota following the departure of Cousins in free agency to Atlanta with a 22-for-28 performance and no turnover-worthy plays despite heavy first-half pressure.
Darnold passed for 250 yards after halftime to help the Vikings break a 21-all tie early in the fourth quarter and stay one game behind NFC North-leading Detroit with a final-week matchup looming with the Lions.
Jordan Addison had eight catches for 133 yards and three scores and Justin Jefferson racked up seven receptions for 132 yards and two touchdowns after going the past six games without scoring.
The Vikings are still alive to pip the Lions to the NFC North title and will face Detroit in the regular season finale on January 5.
