Have you ever experienced the grandeur of a ball?
While modern times see people socializing and dancing at pubs and nightclubs, attending balls was once a significant cultural affair. Men showcased their elegance in stylish tuxedos and lavish materials, while women adorned themselves in corsets and voluminous dresses.
Even in our futuristic present, the tradition of dancing in ballrooms wearing extravagant ball gowns hasn’t vanished. In fact, various organizations organize events dedicated to commemorating this historical era centered around ball dancing, and one such notable occasion is the Stanford Viennese Ball.
The Stanford Viennese Ball, as described on its website, stands as an exhilarating Stanford institution, featuring social dance, live music, performances, and lively contests. Originating in 1978, the ball was driven by students who had completed the Stanford-in-Austria program and were inspired by the grand balls in Vienna, Austria.
The inaugural event, held in Toyon Hall, witnessed the enthusiastic participation of 350 students, marking the beginning of a tradition that has since evolved into a formal affair eagerly anticipated by students. The excitement is palpable as attendees revel in the opportunity to don freshly ironed suits, dresses, and gloves.
A highlight of the event is the opening dance, meticulously curated by the Stanford Viennese Ball Opening Committee. The opening song captivates the audience with its impressive harmony and synchronicity. Men don black suits, while ladies grace the scene in white silk dresses and gloves, executing multiple lifts and quick spins that leave the audience in awe.
The opening committee’s performance is a spectacle that never has a dull moment, featuring a series of captivating maneuvers that seamlessly flow from one to the next. Witness the charm and entertainment of their act below!
Ashton Kutcher and Mila Kunis’ Public Debut with Their Kids Caught Everyone’s Attention for a Very Curious Reason
Ashton Kutcher and Mila Kunis keep their personal life away from the cameras. But recently, they attended a basketball game and brought their children out in public for the first time. Looking at the couple’s son and daughter, people noticed something.
Ashton, 46, and Mila, 40, who have been married since 2015, attended the women’s basketball game between the Indiana Fever and the Los Angeles Sparks in Los Angeles. They brought along their 9-year-old daughter, Wyatt, and 7-year-old son, Dimitri.
The picture-perfect family appeared to be having a wonderful time, and their happiness quickly caught the attention of fans, who showered them with compliments and the majority of observers noted how the kids are the spitting image of their famous parents.
One observer noted, ’’their kids are a literal copy of them both,’’ while another wrote that they are a ’’mix of two gorgeous parents’’. A third fan remarked, ’’The boy looks like Mila and the girl has Ashton’s face.’’
This is a significant move, as Ashton and Mila are among those celebrities who strive to keep their personal lives private and shield their children from public attention. They do not share their children’s photos on social media or bring them to red carpet events. However, in one of their interviews, they touched on the topic of children and shared their approach to parenting.
They have no intentions of leaving their hard-earned money to their 2 children. Instead, they want to give it to people who truly need it. Kutcher added, “I’m not setting up a trust for them. We’ll end up giving our money away to charity and to various things.”
Mila and Ashton have a combined net worth of around $250 million.
Another celebrity offspring recently caused a stir as well. Richard Gere’s 24-year-old son made his debut at Cannes, and everyone unanimously agreed that he is even more handsome than his father.
