A viral video that spread through 2024 claimed to show Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy doing a belly dance in what appeared to be a sparkling red bodysuit.

Ukrainian choreographer Greg Chapkis guided multiple dance crews to medals during an international competition despite the situation back home.

It's been a successful year for the Extreme Ballroom Dance Company, with them winning gold for a major competition for the show that has now become the troupe's year end showcase.
