The latest episode of 'World of Dance' featured Netherlands-based dance group Oxygen performing dance moves which even Jennifer Lopez can't perform. JLo, who is known for her elaborate and impeccable dance routine that can be seen in her music videos and live performances, revealed how even she couldn't pull off the "clean" moves which Oxygen performed on the show. 

The group performed a perfectly synchronized routine to Billie Eilish and Khalid's 'Lovely'. Every dancer was perfectly in synch with the rest of the group's movements, and the impeccable timing and co-ordination just left everybody speechless. At the end of their performance, Ne-Yo point-blank asked them how they managed to pull it off. One of the dancers revealed that their secret to such a well-synchronized performance is their lack of sleep. The dancer said that they practice for hours with no sleep to perfect the moves. 

Derek Hough then praised the group for how they made the routine look like something he has never seen before, despite it having some traditional roots. It was finally JLo's turn to give her feedback to the dancers. This is when she revealed that her dancers and she tried performing similar moves, but they just couldn't get it right. Despite trying very hard, the singer revealed that they could never get it to look as "clean" as Oxygen's dance moves. She declared that she was "super impressed" with the dance troupe.



 

Fans too loved the group's performance and took to Twitter to express their awe. A fan tweeted, "I think that was the sickest performance I’ve ever seen #worldofdance OXYGEN." Another fan wrote, "Yoooo Oxygen smashed that... I thought they were spa workers based on the uniforms...the twitching was legit! #WorldOfDance." It comes as no surprise that the group was not only sent to the next round, but also managed to become fan-favourite. A fan shared, "Oxygen my fav so far #worldofdanceagain #worldofdance." Another fan echoed similar thoughts with, "#WorldOfDance oxygen is giving me the chillllss!!!!! AMAZING @JLo." 

'World of Dance' Season 4 airs every Tuesday at 10/9c only on NBC.
