The devil's music (Rock&Roll;) started having dances to go along with his music and one of most the popular dances was the "Twist". A young man named Ernest Evans known to all as "Chubby Checker" led teenagers and their skeptical parents out on the dance floor. The twist had fasions to go along with it and one could also get a good workout dancing the twist. The Twist was danced at the White House and Buckingham Palace, this dance had the whole world shaking.

The original recording of the Twist was written and performed by Hank Ballard and The Midnighters. Two years later a young man, Ernest Evans took the song and created a dance. Along the way he changed his name to Chubby Checker.

Couples started gyrating and twisting independent of each other like never before. The age of touch dancing was gone. Signaling a loosening of American society and traditional values, the Twist scandalized some Americans and invigorated others. Chubby Checker made the Twist an international sensation.
