Wait, you mean you can tell the rest of them apart???

And didn't y'all know that the reason Liza Minelli was there is because she was the prototype for Mike's change in appearance??

I was noticing that the two looked EERILY alike.

Stuff I coulda done without:

Whoever the heck that was bouncing around yelling 'OPP', WTF?

Whitney, Whitney. Whitney

Deborah Cox's bad weave and cheap dress

Rah Digga all together

THought I was the only one who caught:

That when Luther came out, it was as if NOBODY ELSE ON THAT STAGE WAS THERE

Usher bumping into Michael! Doh!

Luther is gaining back his weight, po baby! He needs to just give Whitney some!

Stuff I LOVED:

Destiny's Child ROCKED IT

Billy Gilman can saaang! I have no idea who he is, but his voice is really wonderful

Michael, Michael, Michael. Despite his truly freakish lifestyle he did come through to prove that the man can still do it!

N'Sync- but y'all already know that I just looove me some Justin, lol.

I can tell them apart because my older sister grew up on the Jackson 5 (we're 15 years apart) so there was no escaping it in my house. She and Michael are the same age or a year apart.

Randy was the one with all that OPP stuff.

Little Billy is a country singer!

By the way, my sister said she heard one of the brothers on the Tom Joyner morning show (was it Marolon? I forget). He said there would be some show on Thanksgiving day?

Does anyone know anything?

Michael is still "da bomb". No matter how he looks, he is as talented as ever!!!!!Other observations

1. Whitney~~ Whitney has always been my favorite female singer, but I hope she can getback to her old self: elegant, beautiful and healthy.

2. Billy Gillman- THAT BOY CAN SANG!!!!!!!!!

3. Gloria Estefan and James Ingram ~~ A wonderful performance. Where has James Ingram been? He is another one that doesn't get enough credit. I'm glad they dragged him out of his hiding place for that performance.

5. Destiny's Child ~~ I just love the fact that Kelly sings lead on this one (even though Beyonce STILL tries to steal the show). Michelle came in a little late on the little bit part that she has....they'll probably take away her 10 second privilege in the next performance

6. Shaggy and RikRok~~ This was RikRok's (sp?) performance. Shaggy did one short verse and a bit of ad lib, punctuated by a little bit of hip rolling.

7. Tamia ~~ Looked absolutely beautiful and elegant as usual.

9. Chris Tucker ~~ He is SO FINE!!!!!!!!!!! I also think he is one of the funniest men alive. Throughout the show, I just kept hoping they would let Chris and Usher go on stage with Michael.

10. N'Sync- not on stage long enough. I wanted an individual performance from them.

11. Luther- Big Luther is coming back y'all. Thats the way most people liked him!!!!!!

Hey y'all I only got a chance to see the first beginning of the show. After DC3 went off I don't know what was happening. But I would like to know WTH was up with Shaggy doing all that excessive pumping and girating. LOL

Whitney

Everybody in the salon was calling her a stick. She ain't nothing but skin and bones. Dag, she was already bony. You can see he bones. I thought she was going to break any second.

NOw y'all better leave Deborah Cox alone. She looked cute out there, and the gal can blow.

Rah Digga was alright, but she did get on my nervous a little bit. I guess they were trying to add a little hiphop into the thang.

Why was Shaggy the only person that didn't do a MJJ rendition? Didn't that defeat the purpose of him performing?

They did show Reggie a lot. Maybe to show he was a fan? Cuz it seemed like str8 randoms in there. You know, regular peeps like you and me? I don't know.

I like plumb LUFFA! That man needs to keep that meat on those bones! I just couldn't get into him being skinny.

CJUS · #24 11-14-2001, 01:25 PM

I think Shaggy did that song because it was Michael's favorite song.

AKATUDE, I was trying to figure out WTH was LUFFA. Your are crazy, LOL

I saw Michael mouth the words, "I love this song", while Shaggy and RikRok were performing. So, I think you may be right.

All I can say is, that's just tight. You love a song, and you have clout like that, you can get it performed for you, at your tribute. Must be nice, Mike, must be nice.

I like big Luther too!

But he has put SO much effort into losing weight, and I know it must be a constant struggle for him. I wish he could attain and keep his goal weight.

CrimsonTide4 · #28 11-14-2001, 01:49 PM

Plus Shaggy had on an MJJ hat and a red tight shirt like MJJ.

But when Big Luther sings he gots more pain in his song.....skinny Luther sounds too happy to me.

The whole time I was watching I was thinking......"I know Ideal is eating this chit up!" or " I can't wait to get on GC!"

I don't know what inspired the African motiif(sp) for the beginning, but it was a mess, and Dope Fiene Willona opps I mean Whitney was so damn skinny the straps on her shoes were fighting to stay around ger lil legs. Anytime you can see a woman's knee bones like that you know she could blow away at any moment!

I agree the Luffa and Ursher

forgot all about 98degrees. They tried to get in on the whole thing and the two of them just drowned them out.

Mike reinvented a new jawline, nose, and lip color all with modern medicine

But the man still has it. It felt so good to see him after so long.

When you think about it, Mike didn't want Randy to say the whole OPP thing because after he said it the second time Mike tried to stop him and Randy was like..."no, uhh uhh!" Dude needed to sit down with that mess.

Tamia looks fabulous! Wouldn't we all wanna glow like that during pregnancy?

I have more but I'm not feelin too good

I'll come back later
