Best Christmas Ever: Big Freedia Launches Twerking App

We have three words for you: Unlock all twerks.

Those three words are from the New Orleans bounce queen Big Freedia and a little thing called the "Twerk App," which -- as you may have guessed -- is an app created with booty-bouncing connoisseurs in mind.

Christmas obviously came a little early this year.

It seems like we were only just gushing about the fantastic wobbling present Big Freedia gave us last fall, when she helped set the Guinness World Record for the most people twerking simultaneously.

If you missed it, please click the above link. Booties were rockin' everywhere.

And now, because Big Freedia obviously wants this to be the best holiday season ever, she's one-upped herself and given us the gift of Twerk, which we can use the whole year round. It's seriously a Christmas miracle.

So what exactly is a Twerk App, you ask? Well, it's obviously a) the best thing ever invented; and b) an app based on the art of big-booty bouncing. That simple.

Well, kind of that simple. You still apparently have to be able to pop that ass to use the app, a skill we aren't terribly adept at. (Yet.)

According to Big Freedia's promo video, the Twerk App is a pretty easy to use, should you have some semblance of rhythm in your body. Just download it, line up your booty with Big Freedia's professional dancers, and then pop-pop-pop that thang while recording your antics.

Oh, and then you share it with the hashtag #BigFreediaTwerk by January 5 so that other people can watch and you can win.
