2020 HIGHLIGHTS

By: Aqualillies Posted On: December 19, 2020

This year was full of unexpected waves for our world, and as it comes to a close, we take a moment for reflection and gratitude for the opportunities that did swim our way. Starting the year with live performances and then moving virtual, our ‘Lillies still found ways to make a splash, around the world and on-screen. Dive in with us to some of our favorite moments from 2020!

BEYONCÉ

Inspired by the classic mid-century water ballet films, Black is King featured a team of 26 artistic swimmers at the “Godfather” Beverly House in Beverly Hills, CA. “What an empowering experience not only swimming with Beyoncé, but with my fellow African American Swimmers. We are very rare in this particular art form/sport and what an incredible opportunity Beyoncé, JaQuel Knight and the rest of her amazing team, created for us; a platform where we could shine in our truest form…” – ‘Lilly Tori.

VIRTUAL SUMMER WATERSHOW

Our Summer Watershow in honor of Esther Williams was a little different – we took it virtual! This year’s performance featured our ‘Lillies around the world coming together to pay homage to Esther and celebrate some of her most loved performances. Virtual events were a special and new part of this year, an opportunity to share our show safely and across the world.

SAM SMITH & DEMI LOVATO

Aquawillies proved that they can make anything work when they flipped off the high dive for Sam Smith and Demi Lovato in corsets and heels. Favorite part: framing Demi during her close-up! Check out our ‘Willies in “I’m Ready.”

USHER FEAT. ELLA MAI

We slid into Usher’s pool to amp up the party in our favorite two-toned swimsuits. Check out the ‘Lillies in “Don’t Waste My Time.”

CAKE

Our Cake Dancers sparkled at a private event with a golden hour performance.

LIVE SHOWS

Before we were social distancing, we were jumping in for live performances all over the world! Here are a few of our favorite moments from this year – and we look forward to diving in with you again in 2021.
