Omarion, Michael Jackson Called And He Wants His Act Back

Last night on Dancing With the Stars the elimination round of the reality competition was rudely interrupted by Omarion performing a Michael Jackson Thriller tribute. I will say that the first part of the tribute showcasing the dancers only was halfway decent and I liked the African dance breakdown to "Wanna Be Startin' Somethin'," but then Omarion took the stage and it went downhill from there. Yes, the dude can dance, but he lacked the finesse to convincingly carry off MJ's moves. I suppose that Ne-Yo was too busy making more pseudo-house tracks for his new CD and Chris Brown was occupied with turning 19 and all, but they would have surely done a better job than Mr. Grandberry. To add insult to injury, O also lip-synced his vocals, which come to think about it probably wasn't a bad idea. I'm just saying.

Dont be a hater man.
Waste u life doin something positive! =]

yall need to stop ya hatin on dat man you cant do it

That sucked. That's all.

I think all of the MJ rehash acts are tired. When are going to get a truly GOOD MJ clone. Like Glen Lewis of Stevie Wonder >? At least Glenn puts his foot in it and does justice to the Icon he is openly emulating. These half ass (Ne-Yo) included MJ clones do'nt do justice to the man they are clearly imatating. I understand about orginality VS influence but man ! Lets get the vocals down first, lets get the back round vocals right and great songs intact . Then..you can move on to the his dance moves. If your going to redux someones swag... DO IT RIGHT !

Michael must have just got off the phone with Ne-Yo about getting his act back.
