Let's make one thing very clear. We are really (really REALLY!) glad we are from the generation that gets to call Ansel Elgort one of our resident hotties. However, after seeing this video, we totally think he was born in the wrong decade.
During a behind-the-scenes clip from his Teen Vogue shoot, Ansel did a "Dance Through the Decades" bit where he demonstrated the most popular dance crazes of each time period - while wearing the historically accurate attire.
At the beginning, when he hit us with The Charleston, we were not really sure this whole situation was worth the three-minute time commitment it involved.
