Social distancing has restricted many social butterflies who would normally take to the club on weekends and kept them indoors to prevent the spread of coronavirus.
Many celebrities are self-quarantining as well. Well, thanks to DJ D-Nice, the only club you needed to be at over the weekend was #ClubQuarantine and the access pass was your internet.
To while away time, DJ D-Nice’s virtual dance parties on Instagram Live lifted many ‘depressed’ souls who have been self-isolating during this pandemic.

These virtual parties, dubbed #ClubQuarantine, is one musical event that raked in many celebrity attendees and this Saturday’s edition got over 1000,000 viewers at a point enjoying the danceable tunes.
“I can’t believe that I started the Home School social distancing dance party just four days ago and it’s become a place for us to virtually dance together and stay connected,” D-Nice wrote in an Instagram post late last week.
“From my kitchen, I’m able to send positive vibrations to each of you. Thank you for rocking with me.”
