Naaa...WOW isn't a video game. It's a drug. As for the dancing styles, I don't understand why the designers thought it was good idea to put in modern dance moves into a realm where the world of JRR Tolkien seems to be the style.

Blood elf female - According to the Burning Crusade Collector's Edition DVD, the blood elf female dance is made up of excerpts from various Britney Spears videos. More accurately, the dance was taken from a Korean "iDance" video. The dancer seems to take a few moves from Britney, but otherwise it should be stated that the choreography is hers.
