As the music begins, the tiny dancers, adorned with bows in their hair, pink tutus, and tap shoes, take their positions on stage.

However, one little girl seems to be uninterested in joining the dance.

She stands slightly apart from the group, her expression not one of fear, but rather of disappointment.

She remains unmoved, seemingly unimpressed by the spectacle around her.

The other girls make attempts to tap along to the rhythm.

But our little dancer stands with her arms at her side, seeming as if she is not interested in the current activity.

That is, until she spots a camera in the crowd.

The moment she sees her biggest fan in the audience, presumably a parent or a loved one, capturing her on camera, her demeanor changes completely.

She lights up, her reluctance replaced by enthusiasm.

It wasn’t stage fright after all, but rather a need for attention.

Once she had noticed the camera, everything changed.

She prances around the stage, her moves far from the rehearsed routine, but captivating nonetheless.

She’s the star of the show, basking in the limelight, her performance eliciting cheers from the audience.

The more the crowd cheers, the more she gets into her groove.

Even the other girls on stage can’t help but watch her as she dances around, spinning to her own rhythm.

The entire scene is a delightful chaos, a testament to the unpredictability of two-year-olds.
