Video: Hillary Clinton dances, grinds during South Africa visit

Johannesburg - The latest video to careen across the Web is some footage of U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton getting jiggy with it at a dinner hosted by South African Foreign Minister Maite Nkoana-Mashabane in Johannesburg.

Clinton looks at home on the dance floor, smiling and shaking her limbs as the singer Judith Sephuma encourages her to get even more uninhibited. Clinton, her hair tied back into a ponytail, breaks out some shoulder shimmying moves, drawing the attention of the singer. Sephuma and Clinton then jokingly dance with each other, even displaying some salacious grinding moves usually reserved for dancehall reggae clubs. The final clip on the video shows Clinton holding hands with others around her table as they dance around the area, while a song plays. The video (complete with a pre-roll ad) was taken and uploaded by the Associated Press. The free-wheeling personality of the secretary of state recently came into focus during the same Colombian trip that led to an embarrassing Secret Service sex scandal, as the New York Daily News notes. She was photographed drinking beer while partying with her staff at a Cartagena nightclub. The Atlantic says Clinton may be trying to shirk the stereotype of being boring. "Hillary was back in the old days considered the stiff, stodgy, pantsuit-wearing standing-by-her-man second to her more famous husband, Bill. But she appears to have come into her own far beyond that..."
