This Is It, the Michael Jackson documentary of his final tour rehearsals was released on DVD today.

This is, quite simply, bad-ass. Michael Jackson’s long-time choreographer Travis Payne and dancers Daniel Celebre and Dres Reid show the dancing inmates from the Philippines how to learn performances from THIS IS IT.

Check out the funkiness above with the “They Don’t Care About Us” breakdown.

Here is “They Don’t Care About Us” by Michael Jackson. It is the version from the “This Is It” movie and what would have been used on his o2 Tour Dates.

Michael Jackson was known throughout his career for his collaborations with other great artists; Lionel Richie, Paul McCartney and Stevie Wonder just to name a few.

When it came time to plan for guests on his “This Is It” tour, choreographer Travis Payne says he put together a list that included Whitney Houston, Diana Ross, Sting, Celine Dion, Justin Timberlake and several others. Jackson approved but said there was another diva he wanted to join him onstage: Lady Gaga.

Payne revealed in a recent interview that the late King of Pop wanted to invite the “Paparazzi” singer to join him on stage during his “This Is It” tour. Jackson told Payne, “You got to get into her. She’s good.”

Last November, Payne received a phone call from Lady Gaga to discuss some choreography work. Payne told her about Jackson’s wish to perform with her. “Of course she got moved by it,” Payne recalls.

Payne went on to direct and choreograph Lady Gaga’s performances on the American Music Awards, “Ellen,”  ”The Jay Leno Show,” and “X-Factor.”

Seeing Michael Jackson and Lady Gaga together on stage would have been something! What do you think they would have performed together? – Dr.FB

Michael Jackson’s “This Is It” will be released on DVD & Blu-Ray January 26th.  I am surprised they did not try to get it out before Christmas, but they did say all along it would be released in early 2010.

Both the DVD and high-def versions of “This Is It” will include several mini-documentaries and other special features. The Blu-ray Disc also will include two versions each of the Jackson music videos “Smooth Criminal” and “Thriller.”

with more than 60 minutes of never-before-seen bonuses for the DVD, 90 minutes for the Blu-ray, including two documentaries, “Staging the Return: Beyond the Show” and “Staging the Return: The Adventure Begins;” a costume featurette called “The Gloved One”; a cast and crew tribute dubbed “Memories of Michael”; and “Auditions: Searching for the World’s Best Dancers”.

 The Blu-ray will also feature Sony’s BD Live movieIQ feature that can create a This Is It play list and offer trivia and cast and crew background.

The regular version will be priced around $26.99 and the Blu-Ray $39.99.

“This Is It” producer Dannie Ortega and Katie Holmes were a few of the stars that came out for the “Dizzy Feet” charity event at the Kodak Theatre in Hollywood on Sunday.

I was invited to the event that is  “to help underprivileged young people realize their dream of becoming professional dancers.” but had to pass.  This was the first year for the Nigel Lythgoe event for the Dizzy Feet Foundation but I am told it will be an annual event. 

Hopefully, my schedule next time will be clear.  I did want to speak with Nigel and Katie and did want to have a not so heated conversation with Ortega about a few MJ related things but that can wait for another time.

Michael Jackson’s “This Is It” movie was the number 1 movie over the weekend. It grossed $21 million while Paranormal Activity grossed $16 million.

Who didn’t see this coming?  The movie will now be in theatres not 2 weeks, liek they said it would, but will be there til Thanksgiving weekend.  You all knew it was gonna happen and if you didn’t, y’all are suckers!

The movie gives something that Michael never achieved while alive but now has; a number one movie.  We will see what it can do next weekend, it’s last weekend in theatres.

I saw the movie last week and was impressed. I never thought Michael would be so in tune with things. That’s a fault on me so you call can be upset with me over it, but nonetheless, I was impressed.

I never saw Michael in concert before. I have however stood next to him before and have been in the same place as him several times, talked with Debbie Rowe for a minute and talked with Michael over the phone before about Madonna.

Did you all see it? What did you think?-Dr.FB

Jennifer Lopez attended the premiere of “This Is It”, the concert rehearsals of Michael Jackson.

Ok let me get to it. Love her outfit. Make-up is a bit much. When you are pretty, you don’t need as much make-up as a Kardashian. What? I’m just saying. The lighter shades of Jennifer look better. The eye shadow and stuff is a bit much.

I am not saying I would kick her out of bed, just noticing some stuff.  ‘Sides, I don’t think Marc Anthony would approve of us in bed together.-Dr.FB

Look who’s back hanging with the A list? It’s Paris Hilton. The woman kind of has been out of the limelight aside from being a victim of one of those Hollywood burglaries.

She actually looked pretty good and not so trashy. Must say, I am digging the new look and image. If she keeps it up, she may be on this site a little more often. Doubt she can keep it up, but we will see.-Dr.FB
