why is everyone dressed like late 90's Creepy walking dead HIStory pedo Michael? They need more early 80's Billie Jean Michaels. The one with just one rhinoplasty and jherri curls. Hell, I'll even settle for early 90's Dangerous Michael. Youtube the motown 25 billie jean performance, that performance blows all this crap out of the water and that was 25 years ago! It makes me sad that nowadays you have shit like britney spears and lady gaga and they are making money off of doing .00001% of what michael did back when he was a child prodigy.
