You can now add Bruce Springsteen to the long list of artists who have attempted to dab. The whole thing started when Bruce spotted a girl in the crowd that wanted to dance with him, and thus he decided to bring her on stage during his performance of "Dancing in the Dark. She proceeded to teach him how to Dab, Whip, and Nae Nae. “After I dabbed, he dabbed," she told KCBS. "I was just pretty much in shock the whole time." Of course, The Boss isn't close the first artist to dab on stage, but he is probably one of the most surprising.

Dabbing isn't the only thing he has been making headlines for. Most recently, Bruce cancelled a concert in North Carolina over the state's controversial "Transgender Bathroom" bill. "Some things are more important than a rock show and this fight against prejudice and bigotry—which is happening as I write—is one of them," he said at the time. Several artists have since followed his example in cancelling shows including the Foo Fighters, Ringo Starr, and Demi Lovato and Nick Jonas who are on tour together. Does Bruce have a better dab than Jay Z, though? That might be the question. Check out the footage above and decide for yourself.
