How can you not love Fred Astaire
I’m mad that there aren’t “Fred Astaire Crack” videos, or “5 minutes of Fred Astaire as the sassiest man alive” complications. He deserves it 😭😭
I remember having a crush on Fred Astaire when I was little... I still preffer men who can really dance. Now I know where it all started. 😅
All talent and no pretension. Best dancer I've seen by far. I'm jealous.
They will only ever be one Fred Astaire genius Hermes pan fantastic choreographer yours a lifelong fan Stuart from London
This man is why I tap dance 🔥🔥🔥❤️

Such an amazing sense of timing and coordination. Unparalleled!
Eine Legende...und einer der letzten Tänzer..die noch tanzen konnten...ohne ihre Männlichkeit einzubüßen... heutzutage kommen die Tänzer fast nur noch weichgespült daher...Fred Astaire und Gene Kelly sind bis heute unerreicht...❤
We will never see another Fred Estaire ever again. 😞
It's alright but the Nicholas brothers 🙌🏾👏🏾

You got that right! The Nicholas Brothers in the movie Stormy Weather 1943. Fred Astaire called this the greatest movie musical sequence he had ever seen. Also loved the video, Lucky Numbers.
Oh there he is! Fabulous Fred!
He was the best!
Perfect!! And unique in history..best dancing talent ever ❤🕺
Talent!
In his wildest dreams, this is how Bryan Callen pictures himself.
😍😍😍He is at his best with Rita Hayworth.They make magical performance!
Absolute legend. Rest in peace sir.
This dude lived through both world wars bruh

And have you noticed how long his eye lashes were? May he rest in peace !
Para sempre maravilhoso, Fred Astaire.
Didn't Ed Norton do something similar to this called the huckle buck on the honeymooners..😂
Awesome
Don't step on anyone's toes
I love it.❤
La fijacion de Michel Jackson
I love Fred Astaire but I wouldn’t say he was king of tap dancing. That would have to be Bojangles. Fred Astaire was an impeccable dancer without a doubt.
Eterno dançarino .
😍😍😍
Grande el Rober
Não sei dançar como o Fred , mas assobiar sim 😂😂😂
Parece tan fácil..... Pero no lo es
When the Nicholas Brothers seen him doing this dance they probably burst out laughing.. 😂

No, they actually had a lot of respect for Fred Astaire. There's a video of Astaire and the Nicholas Brothers dancing in the back lot of RKO studios in 1935. You can find that video on KZread. I personally prefer the Nicholas Brothers.
Tot 1 are ca număr....
Why are his trousers so low down?
🎉 😲😳😂❤️😘😀
A pior coisa q inventaram nesse yt foi esses vídeos curtos, quero ver o vídeo inteiro, inferno
Fred must have been on a constant diet.
He is not the king, the king means the best and the belongs to the Nicholas brothers, the kings of tap

Nicholas Brothers
He was great but certainly not the best. The brothas had him beat. Pull up videos of Harold Nicholas and the Nicholas Brothers. It ain't even close 😂

Yes, no jumping splits. Can’t be the best without jumping splits, No matter how much other variation you include. And I assume the Nicholas brothers were also masters at musical theater ballroom/tap/ballet with female partners as well And forget the flippant remark of George Balanchine, “He was like Bach - there was so much of the dance in him that it became distilled” As he would have said and did say, “I’m not a tap dancer. I’m a dancer” He had his genius solos. Yet, put the rest of the buck and wing crowd with Ginger or Rita Hayworth or Vera Ellen or Cyd Charisse or his sister Adele on stage and see what magic it would have resulted in. As Honey Cole’s said “The best dancer ever” “Not the best tap dancer” “The best dancer” and as ballet Baryshnikov said, “he is the enemy of dancers. You come home after an exhausting day feeling pretty good about yourself. You turn on the television and there he is. And you say to yourself, ‘I can’t dance!”
Definitely not the king

He was very good, but the King of Tap Dancing, he was not at all.
