Can someone tell me whath he says? I am about to have a new respect for someone I thinks...
Basically calling him awesome and saying how we will never see another person like him in our time...or ever. He mentioned how the Black or white video was kind of like an inspiration to their show because of how he did different cultural dancing- African, russian, indian, etc. He also said how Fred Astarie called him, after seeing him on the Motown 25 I think (I think he was mistaken on here because Michael said that Mr. Astarie called him after he lost an award) and said how amazing he thought his dancing was.
I'm surprised how he knew about that phone call from Fred Astarie. Most people don't pay attention to those sort of things....I'm surprised. I guess more people were paying more attention that I thought.
He said, "I hope that the grieving is short because this is a life to celebrate. This is a life that remains INSPIRATIONAL for anybody who listens to music, anybody who wants to dance!"
He mentioned how the producers had stirring stories that said how many dancers in the past have said, "I started dancing because of Michael Jackson!"
It was great....real sad but great. I don't even watch that show but it's just awesome to hear people appreciate the heck out of Michael. Especially a dance show. That's just a bonus.
