Melissa Carter's Last Day

Morning Dance Breakers! For those of you who may not know. I am a huge fan of a local radio show in Atlanta called The Bert Show and one of their DJ Melissa Carter who wrote and performed one of my favorite dance breaks UnPlugged. Since this is her last day on The Bert show I though I would share her hit single unplugged.

Kim Zolciak at White Party

Not all Dance Breaks are considered equal. There are some that are just catchy or lame enough that they catch on. I'm sure many of us remember the fame the American idol contestant William Hung received after his Ricky martin "She Bang" rendition. This next dance break is from Kim Zolciak from The Bravo Reality Series, The Real House Wives of Atlanta. This is her performance at the White Party. Now keep in mind this video has been edited and produced so it's not to bad, actually kind of a hot track.



This is Kim Live on The Ellen DeGeneres

Now this song and Kim's follow up single Google Me inspired Q-100 Bert show Co-host Melissa Carter to write her song Unplugged. Inspired may not be the right word to use since Carter felt that with the right producer and auto tune anyone can have a hit song. You can find both Tardy for the Party and Unplugged on itunes.

An additional note all the proceeds of Unplugged go to support The Melissa Carter Transplant Fund of Piedmont Hospital.
