She’s a great poplocker.
During a Rolling Stone interview in 2007, the singer was asked about her memories of parties back in Yonkers, New York when she was growing up. As it turns out, Mary’s dancing skills go far beyond the bop we all see her do while performing.
“I was really, really good. I was a poplocker. I used to battle guys in the hallways,” she said. “And as far as the electric boogie and all that goes, I was nice. I still think I’m nice. I wouldn’t do it in public, but if I did, I wouldn’t embarrass myself.”
