DANCING WITH THE STARS SET TO HONOR MICHAEL JACKSON
TweetMake sure you tune-in to ABC’s Dancing With The Stars on Oct. 20th to catch their special tribute to the late King of Pop aka Michael Jackson. According to executive producer Conrad Green, the show’s professional dancers have been busy cooking up a special tribute to Michael’s most iconic songs. He tells People,
“A lot of our dancers were very upset when he died. He was an inspiration to them and they wanted to do something fitting to honor him”. Adding, “Jackson’s music has been featured like 13 or 14 times during the course of the show. This is quite personal for a lot of our dancers and our production.”
And Green won’t even let the cat out of the bag, thus keeping his lips sealed about the songs that will be featured. He says he wants to “keep that a surprise for our audience”. However he reveals, “They are three of his most iconic songs of his career.”
Picking just three songs out of Michael’s immense collection definitely wasn’t an easy task.
“To be honest, we could do a whole show to his songs,” he says. “But we want it to be compact and memorable. It will be a heartfelt performance from our dancers.”
