review ✨💫
Jemma aka Jemmbot is the embodiment of strength, flexibility, and soul. Dressed in an iridescent blue cut-out bodysuit and pastel blue sweatpants with “slut” in silver rhinestones (it’s giving Juicy Couture vibes), she begins with a soft, ballet-inspired intro in ballet flats, effortlessly executing pliés to the jazzy beats of Sink In by Amber Mark.
As what seems to be her inner monologue plays over the music, we hear her self-reflective thoughts, hinting at a possible past as a classical dancer with a wry “If this doesn’t work out, maybe I’ll just become a stripper”. This subtle homage to what may be her history sets the tone, showcasing the foundation of strength and discipline that informs her performance.
But once she swaps her ballet flats for strappy black heels, Jemmbot’s act becomes a spectacle of strength and sensuality. The crowd can’t help but marvel as she wraps herself around the pole with precision and flexibility, a true display of artistry in motion. Jemmbot’s dance becomes a commanding display of raw power as she moves seamlessly onto the pole, effortlessly blending muscle and grace, proving that strength and sensuality can coexist in the most magnificent way.
