A dancing Granny from Moneystown has created quite a stir nationally after a video of her grooving to the Garda Jerusalema dance challenge went viral, receiving close to a million views.
89-year-old May Kenna s dance moves have become an online sensation, though May seems relatively unaffected by her new found fame.
May lives with her daughter Annemarie Gilmore, her son-in-law Joe, and her grand-kids Mia, Padraig and Tadhg in Moneystown. Annemarie was unaware of just how good a mover her mother is, even as she approaches her 90th birthday in May. Mum was watching a video of the Gardai doing the Jerusalema dance challenge and said I d be able to do that. She started dancing away in the living room and I began filming her and decided to stick the video up on Facebook.
