Twerk: An inappropriate sexual dance move consisting of quick booty-shaking and thrusting the pelvis into the air.
Sorry to be so graphic, mom. Speaking of being graphic, here is a gif to show you exactly what twerking looks like. Sure, make a disgusted face, but later you'll try it out just to see if you can do it. ;)
A couple of great articles came out today in conjunction with Miley's performance. HLN posted a brief history of twerking and referred to it as the Lambada for the new generation. And BuzzFeed posted an incredible set of gifs of Miley twerking on famous pieces of artwork.
