This post makes 0 sense. "Dancing is just for the lulz" ??? Artists dance on tour still and almost nobody's tour has "spectacle" anymore so you're making zero sense. Taylor Swift is probably about to have one of the biggest tours without any spectacle in it. It's just her prancing around, singing some parts, letting the crowd sing the rest and basic choreo (walk here, pose there, shake here, bow, etc.).

The reason dance isn't apart of pop as much is due to the fact most pop artists in recent memory haven't had to dance to garner success (Katy, Rih, Taylor) so labels aren't looking for that kind of talent. However, people like Demi, Selena, Miley, Ariana, Natalie La Rose, Tinashe, are all dancing (on vaious levels), and since they are the next generation of pop it eventually means dancing will come back into style and a new wave of dancing pop stars will flood the scene.
