"That Old Pair of Jeans" is a song by English electronic music producer Fatboy Slim, released on 26 June 2006 as a single from his greatest hits album The Greatest Hits – Why Try Harder. It features vocals from American rapper Lateef the Truth Speaker.
Fatboy Slim commissioned comedian and juggler Chris Bliss to perform to the song in front of a live theatre audience for a music video. The video expanded into a MySpace contest to "Juggle to music like Chris Bliss". The entries were narrowed down to eleven entries[2] including one non-juggling entry directed by Steve Glashier featuring Australian hula-hooper Angie Mack (née Humphries). John Augustus "Gus" Tate won the competition[3] and Angie Mack received honourable mention as the "Non-Juggling Winner" as the video so impressed Fatboy Slim.[4]
