The interest in Michael Jackson continues even after his passing, and it will continue to pick up steam. On October 28th, a limited engagement viewing of "This Is It", a documentary of Michael Jackson's final days in preparation for his concert tour, which came to an end with his passing, will play in selected cities around the world, for only two weeks.
The movie appears interesting, we get to see his work ethic, final performances, attention to stage detail, his personality, his relationships, new songs and Michael's raw talent.
To not end there though, his popularity has grown even more so as people in the Neverland Ranch, claim to have seen his ghost. The car image, as you will see, is a stretch, but the shadow in the room...well we're just not sure. It could be someone passing in the garden.
Michael, is that you? We all like to think that it is.
How old do you have to be in one of Beyone's music videos? You can still be in diapers, but you have to be born with the right moves. This little baby's got it all.
Last week, the following video captured the entire country, and it started with Kanye West's comment during Taylor Swift's award on MTVs Video Music Awards. When I first saw this clip, I thought about how genius it was to put the two clips together, as both pieces of footage were fresh in our minds. So, to the creative people who put this together, well done.
And if you haven't seen this, here are Taylor's comments and remarks regarding Kanye's interruption. She's pretty classy and has taken all of this in stride. "Kanye, cool haircut."
And, to add closure to this entire event, here is Kanye's interview on Jay Leno's premiere. Jay really let him have it as he asked Kanye about how his mother would feel about his actions. He was met with an unexpected silence, as all of us listened to what he had to say. The moment was dramatic and I believe, sincere. At first, it seemed like a low blow, but it really brought his actions into the light. His action at the VMA's may have hurt Kanye's career, and I don't think his appearance on Leno will help him bounce back, but it does make him appear to be a better person than I had expected, I wish him luck.
This clip is tough to find, if you search for this on Youtube, you'll see lots of silly posts from people describing. Just watch it for yourself here on MSNBC...
I totally love this! Ellen speaks for the people! She is going to make the American Idol ratings soar even more! She'll bring a sincerity and humor to the show that Simon, Randy, and the other lady (what's her name again?) can not and do not bring! YES! I am tuned in to American Idol for sure this season. It's all because of you Ellen! We love you!
This week, I saw this and felt that it was one of the most incredible things I have seen in a long time.
Oprah's season opener featured performances from popular groups like Rascal Flats, Jennifer Hudson, James Taylor and Chris Angel, but there was one in particular that I though was very special. During the The Black Eyed Peas performance of the song "I Got a Feelin" there was an incredible Flash Mob performance that turned out to be a nice surprise
For those of you who don't know, a Flash Mob is a large scale choreographed performance involving hundreds, even thousands of people. The cool thing about this Flash Mob, is that I don't think anyone knew about it, including Oprah. When I saw it, I thought it was incredible, the energy was infectious and left me feeling really happy.
If anyone out there was part of that Oprah Flash Mob, and happened to stumble upon this blog, feel free to chime in and let us know what it was like. I'll bet that you'll never forget that day. I wish I was there, but in all honesty, the energy could be felt from far away - it was truly amazing. I could only imagine some of the bystanders who were attended but were not part of the originating group, I'm sure you couldn't help but join in either.
The Flash Mob portion of the clip begins at about :58, and after the performance, you'll see a segment about how the entire stunt was planned, organized and executed. The incredible thing is that the word got out through the use of Facebook and Twitter. Way to go guys on pulling off an incredible memorable event.
The original instance of the Flash Mob can be seen in this clip below, filmed in Antwerp Belgium approaching 11 million hits.
and more recently in Mexico, over 13,000 people perform Michael Jackson's Thriller, I think that's a new Guiness Book World Record.
