So I'm watching Dancing with the Stars and I can't help but to think how much I wish like hell that just once they had asked Michael to go to a live taping of it. That got me to thinking, first off, no-one can dance like Michael Jackson. His style and his dance is- indescribable. But... I know Michael's style was / is not 'Ballroom Dancing' so I guess my question is... whats the difference between Ballroom Dancing that we see on Dancing with Stars - they can move so incredibly well. And how Michael danced??...

my second half of that question is do you think Michael was ever into ballroom dancing ; I know he watched the show and he liked Cheryl


if that makes any sense...& p.s. I noticed that a guy Michael worked with is in the band for 'Dancing' :yes: :yes:
 
Watch his dancing - especially with partners - in Smooth Criminal and Blood on the Dance Floor and even early Jackson TV show. His dancing style would have certainly made big points - even today! He could dance any style - even with a dance partner. incredibly gifted! Don't even think this show would exist if not for him!

Michael Jackson Says Dancing Was His Natural Instinct
August 14, 2024
In a 2005 interview, Reverend Jesse Jackson asked Michael who his dance coach was growing up: “I never studied dancing before – it always came natural for me. Whenever I was little, any music would start and they couldn’t sit me down, they couldn’t tie me down actually. And even to this day, if somebody plays a beat, I’ll start kicking in and making counter rhythms to the beat I’m hearing. It’s just a natural instinct”
 
Michael participating in dancing with the stars would have broken all viewership records and I think he would have scored very well. I’m not sure if the experts would have liked Michael introducing some of his own moves in the choreographies though lol
