In this clip, Shawn Prez asked Stephanie Mills about reconnecting with Michael Jackson on the set of his “Bad” music video, and Stephanie went on to reveal that her ex-husband, Shalamar member Jeffrey Daniel, teaching Michael how to moonwalk. Stephanie added that she was there when Jeffrey and his friends taught Michael how to moonwalk and she stated, “I saw it with my own eyes.” When asked about her whispering something to Michael on the “Bad” set, Stephanie said that she didn’t want to disclose what she said. Moving along, Stephanie spoke about the “Bad” video set being the first time she had seen Michael in years, and she noticed that he looked so different. Stephanie then pointed to Michael, Sammie Davis Jr., and Natalie Cole not being celebrated like other artists, including Elvis. When asked if she thinks Michael was proud of her career, Stephanie stated that she’s unsure about what he thought, but she added that Michael always appreciated people with talent.

Natalie Cole sweep the Grammys with that side by side song with her father, including best album of the year, and she was tribute after her death. And the irony is that Elvis hardly got any awards or official recognition on award shows etc. BTW MTV had on rotation Prince, Musical Youth, Eddie Grant, Badbrains, the Specials and other black acts since 1981, two years before Billie Jean music video, even Prince's Little Red Corvetted played first then MJ. MTV was Rock oriented.

@mikes.johnson204 Год назад

The name of the person who created the moonwalk name was Bill Bailey in reference to prince, Eddie Grant, and those other videos mentions they came on prior to Michael Jackson. They used to come on between two and four in the morning when you did not have no viewership, and according to the interview with, David Bowie or TTV sports MTV was forced to play black videos or CBS rackets was going to yank all of theirs which was 80% of M TVs video run. It was only been in 1980 for the first quarter that they showed a profit due to the heavy dose of videos of Michael Jackson songs, beat it, Billie, Jean, and thriller. Remember the song Billie Jean has some rock undertones featuring Eddie Van Halen.

Yeah I can believe that Jeffrey Daniel teach Michael Jackson how to do the moonwalk because Michael Jackson was a big fan of Soul Train dancers, I don't know why folks don't think Michael Jackson didn't wanna dance from his culture..Michael Jackson always wanted to dance and be around black folks, I don't think Michael Jackson never forgot where he come from like most folks do..Michael Jackson always followed black dance 🕺culture...Michael Jackson always followed soul train dancing style...yeah ms Stephanie Mills telling the truth about Michael Jackson and Jeffrey Daniels dancing and rehearsal together and plus Jeffrey Daniels said it himself many times before he teach Michael Jackson how to moonwalk.. this sound like a classic interview..👍

Jeffrey is the first one I ever saw do the moonwalk on Soul Train long before Michael did it on national tv.

@horrorpowerfilms9481 Год назад

What you mean "even"? she won so many Grammys in one night, including a not deserving (others well deserved) album of the year, the most praised albums of that year were snubbed thanks to that Nat King Cole duet gimmick.

@daimonmarioperez9501 Год назад

Ms Stephanie, you are absolutely correct .

@horrorpowerfilms9481 Год назад

She is incorrect actually. MJ won more Grammys then Elvis. Davis was celebrated alive with many Grammys and after death with achievment award by the Grammys and Lincon Center Honors. Natalie Cole won more Grammys in one night, including Best album of the year (that she din't deserved) and she celebrated after death.

💯💯I truly believe there was some mild dissension between Michael and Jeffrey although they were friends. Jeffrey performed a solo to A Night To Remember and debuted the moonwalk which Michael did a year later. Jeffrey married Stephanie while knowing Michael dated her and they both were fighting for that androgynous look (and Jeff was fine as hell back then 😍😍😍)…. Yea, they definitely were some competitive friends but apparently Michael got the shine when the smoke cleared. But Jeffrey is still here above ground so maybe that should tell us something!!

Michael WANTED to take her along on his journey and she refused to go with him to meet certain people because she was either insecure or didn’t like mingling with “other” people. She now wants to blame him. When it was HER decision. It makes me angry that she would make light of his vitiligo when he’s no longer here. You can bet she wouldn’t do that if he was still here. You can bet money on that. There’s still some bitterness like a scorned lover. Although, I think she still loves Michael and has never gotten over her first love.
