<p>The &#8220;JK Wedding Entrance Dance&#8221; on Youtube, is the viral video of the moment (if you want to see it, scroll down to the end of the post). At the moment of the writing of this post, it has 1,613,403 views. When I first saw it, like an hour a ago, it had 1.4 million plus views. Means that the current rate is 200,000 views per hour, which will be interesting to check if it double by the end of the weekend.</p>
<p>Is crazy if you see the graph [on the image bellow], how the video exponentially went up in views in the last day or so. If you see in the graph around the 23rd of July the video started to get traction and then suddenly it when up. My first question is what happened, what was the catalyst? </p>
<p>&#160;</p>
<p><a href="http://www.gtothesquare.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/weddingentrancedancestats2.jpg"><img style="border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; display: inline; border-top: 0px; border-right: 0px" title="wedding entrance dance stats2" border="0" alt="wedding entrance dance stats2" src="http://www.gtothesquare.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/weddingentrancedancestats2_thumb.jpg" width="473" height="358" /></a> </p>
<p>[source youtube.com]</p>
<p>The answer to the question is the demographics that go interested on the video, which is shown in the image bellow: Females from 35 to 54 years old. Women around that age already have been married (or divorced), have kids and generally have great social network of other moms. <a href="http://www.gtothesquare.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/weddingentranceaudiences.jpg"><img style="border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; display: inline; border-top: 0px; border-right: 0px" title="wedding entrance audiences" border="0" alt="wedding entrance audiences" src="http://www.gtothesquare.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/weddingentranceaudiences_thumb.jpg" width="567" height="206" /></a> </p>
<p>[source youtube.com]</p>
<p>Women at this age share a lot and support each other, so it is natural that if they love this video, they will share it. I guess, to them this is a act [by a couple] that really wanted to make it a special day. In other words it was romantic gesture, that wasn&#8217;t disrespectful and had a catchy song (adding the modern twist). This way finding it appealing and sticky, therefore trigger them to share it with their other women friends.</p>
<p>Without further ado the famous JK Wedding Entrance Dance video, big kudos to the couple:</p>
