What do you give the pop star who has everything?
In the case of Britney Spears it was the gift of a zeitgeisty dance lesson, presented by Ellen DeGeneres.
Tuesday saw DeGeneres welcome Spears and fellow "X Factor" judge Simon Cowell to her couch, and in keeping with protocol for the stunt-loving show, DeGeneres noticed that Britney had tweeted her appreciation for a Korean rapper named Psy.

Psy is nothing short of a viral phenomenon thanks to his beloved K-pop single "Gangnam Style" and its insane accompanying music video. The track comes complete with a signature dance move, the choreography of which captured Brit-Brit's attention.
Can you see this coming?
DeGeneres revealed Psy himself to teach them the dance, which consists of some footwork and arm twirling that's reminiscent of riding a horse.
DeGeneres encouraged Spears to remove a giant pair of platform heels, but Psy protested the fashion choice.
"Mindset of this dance is dress classy and dance cheesy," he told the women. Watch the glorious clip below.
