The female worgen dance appears to have finally been finished and put into the latest beta build. She is going to be doing Lady Gaga's Poker Face. Wowhead has datamined the dance out of the latest patch files and has a few animated .gifs up on its site showing the dance moves. You can also see it in the video above.
For those of you keeping score at home, the female worgen model has been delayed, put in, pulled out and generally not finished for most of the beta. It appears Blizzard is starting to get things ready for Cataclysm's ship date. Now, if only it would fix the really strange way her jaws sit.

I will be properly disturbed if disembodied arms appear in the liver version too.

The "liver" version? That would be even worse... :E

Worgens wouldn't mind a liver version, add onions, gravy & mash and we're talking a feast!

GG Blizz catering to the casuals. Let us pancrease version players have our own version and keep those casual liver scrubs out of my WoW!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5kqeu0O7rCE 0:13-1:03 would have been a lot better. just saying cuz it would look cool with the claws.

with those additional hands, it really tried to mimic her music video

I went and had a peek at the official Gaga video for the song and even though the cuts are fairly fast, she doesn't appear to be grabbing herself with as much deliberation as the worgen version. Her hands are just kinda in that area, away from her body. This version... kinda gives me the creeps. And that's saying something. o.0

I agree. Looks like she's grabbing her crotch a whole lot.. I hope she washes her hands after?

That's just silly.
Jason Oct 27th 2010 5:49PM
No "She-Wolf"??? *Sadface*
Phaelan Oct 27th 2010 7:30PM
I agree.... Lady GaGa is fail.... :(

La Loba would have been the obvious choice but a) there's no real distinctive dance with that video aside from Shakira's usual style and b) that would have been the third time Blizzard went to the Shakira well with female dances and it would have been old. I love the woman (and her dancing!) to death, but twice was enough.
Instead of tired Lady Gaga QQ, we'd have gotten "waaa Blizzard is lazy and unimaginative" QQ. Your call as to which is preferable.
(I think Gaga makes no sense at all for Worgen, FWIW. If it were up to me, I'd have gone with a Jacksons theme: Thriller for the men, and some old school Rhythm Nation-era Janet for the women.)

I am also so sad that it is not She Wolf, but on research, yes, the troll and the draenei females have a Shakira dance. It isn't Shakira's fault that her dance moves are so great.
That dance just looks like the, uh, erogenous zone macarena.

watch out there are arms behind you!!
Noah Oct 27th 2010 5:50PM
That song...
Why did it have to be THAT song?
carebear Oct 27th 2010 5:58PM
at least the song wont start playing out your speakers whenever someone does the /dance emote
