“I’m a huge Beyoncé fan,”Diggs told BuzzFeed. “So the night before, I just watched her video on YouTube over and over again, and then I memorized it, practiced it, and the next day I did it.â€
And everyone is absolutely loving what officer Diggs brought to the show. Comments on the viral video praised Diggs for “slaying” the dance in full gear and setting such a great example for people everywhere not to take themselves so seriously. His moves have gone a long way toward improving relations between community police officers and students.

“The reason I’m doing this is to show kids that they can make it, that they can survive, that they can be successful,”he told BuzzFeed. “I’ve been very fortunate, at this time when people look negatively upon law enforcement, that I’m able to change that narrative and open up some conversations and engage with people.â€
