The dance challenge was supported with live duet content hitting throughout the day from Aston’s fiancée Sarah-Lou Richards and their son Grayson, Pussycat Doll Kimberly Wyatt, popstar Tallia Storm, celebrity stylist Lou Teasdale, and dance prodigy Princess K who found fame performing with Stormzy at Glastonbury Festival in 2019. Aston became a Tik Tok sensation sharing adorable dance videos with Sarah-Lou and their children throughout lockdown, racking up millions of views. The #LOLDanceDay challenge was created by Aston using dance moves made iconic through Tik Tok, combined with original moves found within the new L.O.L. Surprise!™ Dance Dance Dance dolls.
 The dance challenge follows a recent survey of 1,000 families run by L.O.L. Surprise!™ that discovered kitchen discos had become a regular weekend occurrence throughout lockdown for 49 percent of UK families. The research found that one in two parents said dancing with their kids had lifted their spirits over the last year (54 percent), with 55 percent having used dance parties as a fun way to let off steam.
Samantha Wilson, Marketing Director for L.O.L. Surprise UK™ said: “The re-emergence of the kitchen disco over the past year has brought to light the positive impacts of families dancing together, using it as a fun tool to keep children active and laughing! We wanted to celebrate International Dance Day and bring the L.O.L. Surprise! Dance Dance Dance series to life by creating a light-hearted dance challenge that families could enjoy doing together. We were thrilled to see the content created by our celebrity ambassadors and hope families throughout the UK will be inspired to have fun taking part in the #LOLDanceDay challenge in the weeks to come.â€
