The five elements of voguing 

This dance style was developed in the 1960’s in the Black and Latino Gay Ballroom Scene in Harlem New York. It was inspired by Vogue Magazine and the poses models would strike in order to be photographed. Examples of this art form can be seen in the film Paris is Burning.

And fuck Madonna’s video. The bitch!!!!

The five foundational elements of Voguing are: Hand/Arm Performance, Catwalk, Duckwalk, Spins & Dips and Floor Performance. From these five pivotal elements arise three primary styles:

Old Way: formerly also known as pop dip & spin or performance. This is the original voguing style and the basis for the development of the subsequent contemporary styles. Voguing in the old way it its purest form is a dance duel between two rivals. New Way and Vogue Fem grew from this foundational form.

New way: characterized by its precision in creating complex angles, boxes, lines and illusions with the arms, wrists and hands. It was used by performers inspired by the extreme flexibility and poses of contortionists, gymnast, yoga practitioners and haute couture fashion.

Vogue Fem is based on Old Way performance and embodies an extremely feminine appearance and movement. Its influences come from Modern Dance, Ballet, Figure Skating and Pantomime. The two characteristic dynamics in the presentation of this style are: “dramatic” – very fast with impressive and “soft & cunt” that emphasizes the grace and beauty of women by rather slow movements.

The five elements of voguing are analogous to the five elements of Hip-Hop; and, both art forms borrowed the five elements structure from Kung Fu movies shown on 42nd street before Disney and gentrification turned The Deuce into a tourist trap,

Vogelism 

The action commands given to the crowd by the vocalist of a band (usually a hardcore band). Also referred to as "mosh calls"

Examples of commonly used vogelisms:

"Lets see some stage dives."
"More stage dives!"
"More FUCKIN' stage dives!"
"Move Up!"
"C'MON!"
"Sing with me!"
"Move the person next to you."
"SMASH the person next to you!"
"Jump on someone's head!"
"C'MON!"

Mindforce vocalist Jay suggested "more kickboxing" from the crowd. This is a vogelism that I have never heard before.

No one has better use of vogelisms than the lead singer of Terror.

vogue 

A dance characterized by striking poses. Originated in the "ball culture" of gay black men in Harlem, which is now present in every major city of the U.S. and internationally. Made famous by Madonna's hit song of the same name...but has existed long before Miss Thing was even famous.

Her vogue is awfully tired, girl.

voguette 

"Voguettes" are helpful people who use the Australian Vogue Forums (website: forums.vogue.com.au). Originally "Voguettes" were defined for females whereas males were "Voguys" however the term "Voguette" is now used for both genders. The forums are derived from Australian Vogue Magazine.

Voguettes share a common interest of fashion, current affairs, fitness, food and entertainment, arts, careers and education, home and interior, travel and charities.

"I saw a photo with a model I can't identify. I should ask Voguettes if they know who it is."

"I want to go shopping for something new. I should check the Vogue Forums to see if the Voguettes know of any sales."
