Abstract
ABSTRACT
Background
Reality television incorporates dance into its programming. It's included for various reasons depending upon factors such as theme, targeted audiences, and genre. Reality TV audiences gravitate to dance programming, which leads to a subconscious consumption of dance content and more exposure to the dance industry. The dance industry has made significant progress over the past few decades. Its rise in popularity is partly attributable to reality television. Dance is a highly marketable and popular genre for reality television. In the past, Hollywood gave minimal attention to dance. They viewed dance scenes as a side piece and not the primary entertainment draw. The traditional dance community questions the benefits of reality television dance programs. The concern is whether reality dance hinders or helps the conventional art of dancing. Its emergence caused reason to study its effects on socially constructed norms and general perceptions. Over the past few decades, the dance industry has made significant advancements. In addition to traditional training and dance competitions, television media plays a vital role in attracting audiences across the globe.
