During Lauren Conrad's Laguna Beach high school days and subsequent "Hills" years, the level-headed aspiring fashionista was never one to sit still when an infectious tune began to play. From rites of passage events to Les Deux, LC was always grooving -- but the newlywed now admits that she doesn't think too highly of her moves.

"I'm an awful dancer," the 29-year-old recently told People. "Really bad. I bounce in my seat and I try to fake it, but I'm just bad."

But we'd have to wholeheartedly disagree with Mrs. Tell, who claims that she got her poor rhythm from her father Jim. From her trademark finger gesture to shimmying to the beat, here are eight times LC positively dominated her atmosphere courtesy of some fierce dancing:

Bopping to Blink-182 with buddies Lo Bosworth and Trey Phillips

Spring-Breaking in Cabo...and incorporating the cup into the movement

Lady in red ruling the LBHS prom

"Wooooooooooo!"

Pointing away with Audrina Patridge...at Jen Bunney's infamous 21st

Getting dowwwwwwnnnn in that white, Marilyn Monroe-esque frock

Owning the hallway -- and working it all the way to the elevator

Moving those arms from side to side because IT'S HER BIRTHDAY.
