Thanks To Sean Zastoupil for this great interview!
For the new fans reading this, why don’t you tell us a little about yourself?
Hey, Thanx for taking the time to interview me. My name is Sean Zastoupil. I am 19 and working to become a back up dancer and want to also get into acting as well.
How long have you been dancing?
I have been dancing since I was 12. I started training and stuff about 8 months ago. I love my dance school. I could not ask for a better group of people to be with.
What made you decide you wanted to be a back-up dancer?
Well first, I LOVE to dance. LOL. I decided towards the end of High school that I wanted to do it as a career because you only get one shot at stuff like this while your young. So I went for it and have came a long way in two years.
What's your favorite type of music to listen to? And dance to?
I like Rap, Pop and Rock Music. I like to Dance to Pop mainly but sine I am taking a Hip hop class I wouldn't mind dancing to Hip hop either.
If you could be a dancer for any artist out there, who would it be and why?
For most people who know of me already know the answer to this question. LOL. I would dance for Janet Jackson because she is the reason I became a dancer. she is so talented and such a inspiration to me. I really like her style of choreography and I kinda base my style around hers.
Who inspires you?
Well, Janet is one person who inspires me. I would have to say my Step mom because she works so hard and does so much sometimes I wonder how she does it all. I truly admire and love her for all she does for me. Also My Aunt, She is such a strong woman and she is always there for me no matter what.
What are your goals/hopes to accomplish?
Well as you know one of them is To be a back up dancer. I also am working to get into acting as well so excited about that. I plan to eventually become a accountant. I have really expensive tatses so I need to be financially secure to pay for them.
What's the best advice you have gotten?
Someone on the internet once told me: " Keep your dream alive and don't ever give up no matter what people say, and remember don't just dream it, LIVE IT!"
Last one, What message would you like to send out to your fans?
To just be you, follow your dreams and don't do them for anyone else except yourself. Master your style whether it be acting, modeling, dancing, or singing. Work Hard and learn lots. That is what this whole business is a learning experience. So soak it up like a sponge. These traits are what make the Michael Jackson's and the J-LO's.
Thanks, Sean, for your time!
