It's absolutely fitting, I think. Paula was one of the premiere choreographers at that time, it would be wonderful. She did a great job with the idols this year, imagine what she could do with dancers. I would absolutely love it if Paula choreographed an MJ tribute. It’s absolutely fitting, I think.

And yes, Paula coud certainly work with the SYTYCD contestants on a phenomenal number. She danced a helluva lot better on Idol this year than she sang (sorry, lip synched). I think the Idols should perform Thriller on the Tour. :) It would be AMAZING if Wade Robson would do a MJ piece (he learned his dance moves from watching MJ videos, and performed Thriller as a 9-year-old on Star Search).

You can't teach that kind of instinctual movement. Paula never choreographed for Michael individually either - only for the Jacksons as a group. But the two men who did choreograph Michael's iconic videos are dead. So, she's a damn good backup choice.

The thought is serious, but as others have alluded to, this is a very good way of marketing if this is really going to happen. And, oftentimes, tongue-in-cheek isn't usually forthcoming unless there is actually substance behind it. So, I think the chances of this happening are pretty good. gangreen29
