Beyonce Choreographer JaQuel Knight Launches Company to Copyright Dance Moves JaQuel Knight is Beyonce’s choreographer. His work includes the Single Ladies video, the halftime show with Jennifer Lopez and Shakira and Cardi and Megan’s WAP video. He recently made history as the first choreographer to copyright his dance moves. He has launched Knight Choreography and Music Publishing. The issue of choreographer’s and dancers getting their credit came to light when Addison Rae went on The Tonight Show and did dances made infamous by TikTok creators but they did not get their credit. What do you think of the idea of copyrighting dance moves?
