Just like the rest of us, Sweden-via-London dancer Benjamin \u201cMilan\u201d Johnson grew up busting grooves \u201cto Aqua and TLC in front of the mirror.\u201d The difference is that Milan kept his dancing shoes on, going on to perform with the likes of Madonna and Kylie Minogue as part of UK voguing crew, House of Lady Di.<\/p>\n

How many people do you know that have been scouted for work by FKA twigs? The Wonderland cover star contacted Milan after stumbling upon his YouTube channel. Soon-after, he starred\u00a0in the singer\u2019s mega Google Glass-sponsored short film, #throughglass. \u201cIt\u2019s been a dream working with twigs, she listens and she has embraced voguing and its culture,\u201d he enthuses. \u201cI couldn\u2019t ask for anything more; she is on\u00a0her journey and I hope that is a long journey.\u201d Asked what the 24-year-old thinks he\u2019ll be doing in 10\u00a0year\u2019s time, he replies, without fluttering an eyelash, \u201cdeath drops.\u201d So you think you can dance?<\/p>\n
