Ray Lewis teaches Mary J. Blige how to do the squirrel dance
NEW ORLEANS -- Much has been been made of Ray Lewis these past seven days. The all-world Ravens linebacker slammed the mic by walking away from the NFL while holding the Lombardi Trophy. But on his way out, he took a brief detour to teach Mary J. Blige how to do his famous intro dance.
And, because this is the world we live in, the singer posted a picture on Twitter of Lewis teaching her.
Thank you to @raylewis for teaching me how to do the Squirrel Dance. twitter.com/maryjblige/sta…

This scene took place during the Ravens' post-Super Bowl XLVII celebration party. The party was probably a little bit of fun and featured Blige as well as rapper Jay-Z (who made a cameo during Justin Timberlake's show at the DirecTV party Saturday night but stood up his wife during the halftime show Sunday).
Jay Z and Beyonce were at the #Ravens postgame party last night. Mary J Blige performed and was taught the Squirrel Dance by Ray Lewis.

Look, it's hard to top walking away from the game while holding the Lombardi Trophy (even if your final game performance wasn't very good and is going unnoticed, ahem). But teaching Mary J. Blige how to squirrel dance on the stage of a Lombardi celebration party is a pretty nice little cherry on the sundae.
