The former Disney star gamely demonstrated the dance, which involved a lot of hip gyrating and swiveling as Leno looked on, nodding his head and laughing.
The short performance came about after Vanessa recounted a story about attending a party thrown by Madonna, where the music was so loud that her ears were 'ringing.'
'I felt like a grandma!' the star told the talk show host.
'I took the prize': The 24-year-old described winning the dance-off with Madonna's backup dancer as one of her 'most prideful moments'

But Vanessa felt left out when Madonna's dancers started busting some moves and challenging one another to a dance off.
'I thought "I gotta jump in on this action,"' said the actress. 'They need some of Vanessa up in this.'
She described the event as one of her 'most prideful moments' after she won the dance off.
'I took the prize,' she said proudly. 'People were literally [clapping] "You're so hot!"'

'I felt like a grandma': The actress admitted that when she first arrived at Madonna's party the music was so loud that she felt like her ears were 'ringing'

When asked by Leno to explain her dancing style, Vanessa admitted 'there's a of booty poppin' involved.'
The Springbreakers star then started moving her chest back and forth and pumping her arms, but Leno expressed confusion.
'I'm old, I don't understand what that means,' he said. 'There must be some kind of demonstration.'
Music started to pump and Vanessa jumped up and performed a few seconds of the sultry dance for the chatshow host.

Bombproof Watch Really !!!!!!!!!!!!!


You're looking for a watch that is actually, literally bombproof, then look no further.
The hip hop-esquely oversized KAVENTSMANN Triggerfish Bronze A2 has been pressure tested to 300 bar - enough to survive under the weight of 3,000m of water pressure.
Bombproof... literally: The KAVENTSMANN Triggerfish Bronze A2 has been pressure tested to 300 bar - and blown up with 10lbs of C4 explosive

However, it also subsequently survived another, rather more violent test carried out by U.S. special forces soldiers involving 10lbs of C4.
That explosive experience, from a distance of one metre, left the case and crown intact, with just a few scratches on its crystal lens.
 
    The movement was shocked by the blast, but the watch's maker told MailOnline he has developed a new holder for the mechanism that would survive future tests.
    Of course, if you are caught in a mishap involving a similarly sized quantity of high explosive, the fact that your watch survived unscathed may be a small consolation.
    Explosive test: U.S. special forces soldiers set up their C4 explosive just three feet from the Triggerfish watch

    The exceptionally solid piece of timepiece technology is encased in CuSn8 phosphor-bronze, the strength of which is revealed by another of its uses: making the load bearing plates for bridges.
    The watch also has a proprietary crown design which features quadruple redundant seals - just to eliminate that chance of a single drop of brine leaking in.
    Michael Barahona Fernandez, owner of KAVENTSMANN, machines the case parts himself one at a time in his one-man workshop in Berlin, so only a few pieces go on sale each month.
    Limited run: Only 30 of the Triggerfish Bronze A2 watches will be made. The first five will ship later this month

    The Triggerfish Bronze A2 is restricted to a limited run of just 30, so if you want one you better get your name on the waiting list now.
    The first five units will ship later this month and will set buyers back €1,600

    Dressed in a plunging lime green one-piece, it’s little surprise that Nicki suffered a wardrobe malfunction.
    She seemed insouciant as she spilled out of the daring one-piece while splashing around in front of the camera.
    ‘This jacuzzi is fun!’ Nicki yells above the bubbles. ‘Get in crew, get in!’
    It's hardly a surprise: The singer was sporting a plunging lime green swimsuit which couldn't contain her curves

    Nicki’s diva behaviour is apparent throughout the video, especially during segments where she has a bodyguard carry her around set in his arms.
    At one point the 30-year-old is ferried across the lawn while draped in a flimsy towel, while at another she sports a tight yellow dress and sky high platform heels.

    World's most expensive armored SUV


    The gold-plated armored SUV featured in the comedy can be yours - for $500,000.

    Three of the cars feature in General Aladeen's motorcade in the movie, out in the U.S. next week.  
    According to a Dartz press release announcing the new offering: 'His Excellency Admiral General Aladeen has graciously granted his express permission for Dartz Motorz, manufacturer of ultra-luxury armored vehicles and exclusive provider to the Wadiyan government motor pool, to offer limited edition commemorative vehicles honoring the Ruthless Protector of the Precious and Expendable People of Wadiya. Like civil rights in Wadiya, this offer will not be around for long.'
     


      The original gold-plated sports vehicle was unveiled by the Latvian auto manufacturer at the Top Marques Show 2012 in Monaco last month.
      Having produced armored vehicles in the past for Vladimir Lenin, Leon Trotsky and Tsar Nicolas, carmakers at Dartz have equipped the limited edition SUV with the safest and most luxurious of options.

      The new Prombron features bulletproof windows with three-inch thick anodized glass, protecting occupants with resistance to rocket-propelled grenades and .50 caliber high velocity armor piercing rounds.
      Reclining massage seats, champagne bottle chillers and wine racks are also installed for those who enjoy lounging on the road. 
      Outside, the vehicle is armed with eight cameras. 
      A standard Prombron comes with a choice of ten interior treatments, including snake, crocodile, whale, skat, chameleon, or elephant skins.

      The Aladeen Edition vehicles range in price from $500,000 to $750,000, depending on equipment and package options. 
      However, it's not the first Dartz vehicle to win headlines for its outrageous luxury.

      The Dirrty star's legs looked more toned, and she accentuated her smaller waistline by cinching the  attire in around the middle with a studded black belt.
      Christina also pared back on her usual overload of accessories, heavy make-up and fake tan, going  for a more natural look.
      While she still wore a thick application of bronzer on her legs, she opted for neutral tones on her visage and had her long blonde hair out in a tousled wavy style.
