I think a new topic deserves a new thread all of its own. That way it doesn't get lost in (or muddy the waters of) an existing topic :)
 
It is authentic video style dancing! In other words, all dancing performed in videos are theatrical in nature and may hold elements that look similar to other folkloric dance forms. I'm sure the goal was not to present authentic dance but serve as entertainment.

From the musicians, the gaze, and the attitude, it's definately a nod to flamenco, but it's theatrical dance, mixing lots of stuff.

Wow, other than stealing children, didn't this video just have EVERY Hollywood Gypsy stereotype?
