Legendary Hollywood choreographer Stacy Walker has worked on countless iconic projects, and during the Jan. 6 episode of The Dammit Danii Podcast, she pulled back the curtain on some unforgettable behind-the-scenes moments.

Walker revealed that dancing as one of the ghouls in Ghosts was actually her very first job in Los Angeles and her first time ever meeting Michael Jackson. Without auditioning, she landed not only that role but went on to work with Michael Jackson two more times, including on his final world tour.

Anyone else think Ghosts needs to be reintroduced to the general public because I do. I'm not quite sure how it should be done exactly, but it just needs to be done. We all know that Thriller in 3D with a different ending is going to happen. Maybe they should slide Ghosts up in there with...
