Maryland dance sensations Jared Nickens, Jaylen Brantley to appear Tuesday on 'Ellen'

Maryland men's basketball players Jared Nickens and Jaylen Brantley will appear on "Ellen" on Tuesday, further proof that dancing well will get you far in life.

Nickens and Brantley, along with cameraman and part-time participant Damonte Dodd, took Ghost Town DJ's "My Boo" and a seldom-seen dance fad and made it go viral last month. Now, after all of college basketball and some of the NBA put one foot in front of the other and got its groove on, even Bundesliga stars are doing the same. If you haven't checked out the #RunningManChallenge hashtag by now, what are you even doing with your life?

(Unless you have one, in which case, I apologize.)

In Baltimore, "Ellen" airs on WBAL at 4 p.m. In Washington, it's at 3 on WRC. Which means that by dinnertime Tuesday, stay-at-home parents across America will be singing softly to themselves, "I've been watching you," and finding themselves unable to stop. Don't say I didn't warn you.
