Pink Glove Dance Video Goes Viral on YouTube for Breast Cancer

The "Pink Glove Dance" is going viral on YouTube and it's for excellent cause: breast cancer. The video features more than 200 dancing doctors, nurses, lab technicians, administrators and kitchen and janitorial staff from the Providence St. Vincent Medical Center in Portland, Oregon ... all wearing pink gloves. The video is helping to sell the pink gloves and will provide mammograms for uninsured women.

In the video, they all wear pink latex gloves, and they dance and sing to Jay Sean’s R&B song “Down.”

Breast cancer is the most common cancer among American women, except for skin cancers. The chance of developing invasive breast cancer at some time in a woman's life is about 1 in 8 (12%). In 2009, an estimated 192,370 new cases of invasive breast cancer will be diagnosed among women in the United States.

As of the morning of December 3, the "Pink Glove Dance" had been viewed by more than 2.7 million people, with more than 4,000 leaving comments including everything from, “This is perfect! Made me smile so much I watched it two more times!!!” to “What a wonderful idea. I just finished breast cancer treatment. I could not stop crying. Thank you for thinking of us.”
