This student’s graduation entrance sent the audience wild as she danced across the stage - before dropping down into the splits. Rosalba Mensah, 28, graduated with a 2:1 in MA Costume Design for Performance at the London College of Fashion (LCF) and wanted to “celebrate in style”. The video, taken at the Royal Festival Hall by the University of the Arts London and posted on TikTok, has since been seen by nearly 500,000 people online. “When I graduated from my BA, I danced for about a second, but I thought I could have done something more,” said Rosalba. “So this time for my Master’s, I just went for it and did the splits!” Rosalba didn’t practise the move beforehand and was “relieved” to have pulled it off. She added: “Afterwards I realised I could have broken my dress! Fortunately that didn’t happen!" Although Rosalba thought she might hear a few cheers from her family in the audience, she didn't expect such a huge reaction from the crowd - or the internet. This video was filmed on 14 July.
