This is an accepted version of this page Laurent and Larry Nicolas Bourgeois (born 6 December 1988), professionally known as Les Twins, are French dancers, choreographers, producers, models, designers, and creative directors of their brand "Eleven Paris".

They quickly rose to prominence in the United States after a video of their performance on the San Diego leg of the 2010 World of Dance tour went viral on YouTube, with over 46 million views as of 1 December 2019[update].

[1] Les Twins have been featured dancers for various music artists, including, Jason Derulo, Big Sean, Beyoncé, Meghan Trainor, and Missy Elliott.

Standing at a towering height of 6'4" (193 cm) tall, the brothers have modeled for French haute couture fashion designer Jean Paul Gaultier and appeared in many high-profile, commercial advertising campaigns, such as YSL, Chanel, Gucci, Prada, Versace, Jay-Z's Rocawear, Givenchy, Vouge, Emporio Armani, Jordan and Beats by Dre.

"[7] In 2005, the brothers recruited five members to form their own dance team called Criminalz Crew, spending the next few years competing in hip-hop tournaments and entertaining crowds as street performers and in clubs.

[11] On 13 November 2008, the twins were among the top twelve finalists competing on the Incroyable Talent finale show attended by Princess Stéphanie of Monaco and watched by over 4 million viewers.

[12] In 2009, they were contracted to perform the two-man hip-hop comedy stage revue Twins choreographed by their long-time coach Abibou "Playmo" Kébe at the Théâtre Trévise in Paris.

[37] Although they were accused by many of plagiarizing their choreography from Les Twins' World of Dance San Diego performance on YouTube, D*Day was allowed to proceed to the next stage of the competition.

They undulate, bend and twist, impossible to assess where their center of gravity lies: both phenomenal and unreal.Larry and Laurent credit their major inspirations as Jim Carrey, Jackie Chan, Bruce Lee, Michael Jackson, their coach Abibou "Playmo" Kébe, cartoons, and their own siblings, all of whom are also dancers.
