Emily Rosenberg, of Highland Park, Ill. and a sophomore at Berklee College of Music in Boston, donated the rights to use her song the Pink Glove Dance. When asked why, she responded, “I’m so thrilled to be involved in the Pink Glove Dance. These videos bring such joy and laughter to the people who deserve it most. Breast cancer affects so many people — both the patients and their loved ones. The more awareness we can raise the better, and we might as well do it in such a fun way! I’m ecstatic that my music will be used for something that makes people so happy. That’s the goal of making music: to improve lives. That’s the dream, and I’m so grateful that the Pink Glove Dance is helping make it come true.” Lexington Medical Center, the facility that won the 2011 Pink Glove Dance Competition, loved dancing pink last year. “The Pink Glove Dance was a wonderful experience for Lexington Medical Center,” said Jennifer Wilson, Lexington Medical Center public relations manager. “We are so grateful to the people from around our community, country and the world who viewed our Pink Glove Dance video and voted for us. To date, our video has received more than 150,000 You Tube views. The Pink Glove Dance competition was a great way for Lexington Medical Center to show the world our hospital and our steadfast commitment to the treatment of breast cancer, a disease that affects 1 in 8 women in her lifetime.”
