She dropped da’ bomb on him and he backed away……
Atleast it’s after he lost weight. It would have been even worse.

Why it looks like a Presbyterian wake, only with bumping and grinding.
Ted Torgerson on July 1, 2009 at 6:52 PM
Um, should reverends really being be doing that?

Grown a$$ man acting like a 15 year old?
A man who supposedly represents what’s left of the civil rights movement?
A man who is supposed to be a role model for the black community?
Now he’s… In Da Club?
Well… I’m saddened.
xax on July 1, 2009 at 6:54 PM
Grinding? Pshaw, people. He was actually dancing. I know it’s rare in this day of butt-thrusting and penis-pushing on the dance floor. But Al actually got it right this time, likely because his mouth wasn’t moving.
He moves pretty well for someone of his age and girth. As soon as the woman tried to drop it like it’s hot Al backed off. I’ve had that exact response myself.

I am sure he will conduct Jacko’s funeral in the same spirit of decorum and piety that he shows in this clip.
Somebody set up the circus tent now.

Oh crap! What is going to happen when Obama kicks the bucket?

Yes, he was advising a devil in a blue dress.
ICBM on July 1, 2009 at 7:00 PM
What’s so bad about these people dancing? What’s the revulsion about? Are people so jaded by politics that they can’t even accept pure expressions of human emotion?
I come from a family that is not afraid to shake some tail. If you can’t shake yours to MJ, you probably can’t shake it too much else.

Just add some plates of cookies and bars, and pots of strong black coffee served by the church ladies in the fellowship hall, and you’d have a typical Lutheran funeral. :)

Well, if I remember my Jonestown history correctly…

Watch till the end. She turns her backside at him and lowered her posterior to the ground, and he saw that and shimmied away waving his hands at it. Quite funny.
portlandon on July 1, 2009 at 7:01 PM
Nothing wrong with that. You saw how he stepped off when she went gangsta with it.
I saw the photos and it looked bad, but on video, it’s actually pretty tame. I’ve done worse in the club myself. It’s all in fun. If you take a video camera into any club on the wkend, you would be shocked at what happens on the dance floor.
It’s all in good fun.
Chudi on July 1, 2009 at 7:02 PM
I have never seen the Reverend Al actually do any preaching before. Looks like I really missed something.

vcferlita on July 1, 2009 at 7:03 PM
There is no way I am watching this. Sometimes I think that pop culture is completely decadent.

why don’t u people loosen up.
Chudi on July 1, 2009 at 7:05 PM
What…you trying to tell me that the first thing that comes to mind when you attend a wake isn’t “man I need to bump and grind and bustamove with some old dirty bootylicious mama tonite…to show my respeck for the deceased”.
come on…you know it is.
DrW on July 1, 2009 at 7:06 PM
What?! He didn’t grind on anybody. He was dancing and backed off when the woman went ghetto on him.
I watched it more than once and don’t see what you people are seeing.
He was dancing, having a good time….wtf?
bridgetown on July 1, 2009 at 7:07 PM
I remember this ass talking on his cellphone, in the church, for Reagan’s funeral. He is classless.
OT What is it with Dems and blue dresses?
tessa on July 1, 2009 at 7:08 PM
DrW on July 1, 2009 at 7:06 PM
? It wasn’t a ‘wake’
bridgetown on July 1, 2009 at 7:08 PM
What a croc. Dancing is only for teens? Puh-lease. From this video, I think Al Sharpton has more business on the dancefloor than he does posing as a so-called “role model.”
Your limited allowances for people to express themselves in mourning is sad. Lots of people celebrate life instead of mourning death to ease the pain of losing loved ones. I believe this footage was shot at a memorial function for Michael Jackson’s passing. Dancing to Jackson’s music is a great way to celebrate his life, if he meant that much to you.
I have to wonder for whom do you expect the public to mourn in such a large scale around the world? Elvis is dead. Paul McCartney is still huge. But I don’t see him dropping dead anytime soon from drug abuse either.
The Race Card on July 1, 2009 at 7:09 PM
I refuse to click the link, but he’s definitely not the spokesman the media makes him (or Jesse) out to be.
SouthernGent on July 1, 2009 at 7:10 PM
Them people got rhythm. But to his credit, he did back away when hoochi mama got down and dirty with dat big ol booty.
keep the change on July 1, 2009 at 7:10 PM
Very, um sexual, and uh, almost tribal. Have you seen the little wayne guy at this MJ BET event singing “I want to F*ck every girl” with 10 yr old little girls dancing on stage with him? Absolutely stomach-turning.
marklmail on July 1, 2009 at 7:10 PM
The liberals really know how to throw wakes. First Paul Wellstone’s memorial turns into a Fritz Mondale political rally, and now a memorial for Michael Jackson looks like the first round rejects from “So You Think You Can Dance”.
Wethal on July 1, 2009 at 7:10 PM
Good thing it wasn’t Marvin Gaye that passed. Imagine if “Let’s get it on” was the song.

blatantblue on July 1, 2009 at 7:19 PM
Let me say that I pray that when I die, a bit more decorum, taste and respect is presented.
Let’s celebrate a life by plugging record labels, enabling just plain weird behavior, and otherwise making a circus of a death. I’m not above celebrating a life at a memorial. But this is ridiculous.
Everyone wants to call attention to the fact that the guy had no childhood and lived a crazy life. Let’s make a mockery of his death, the same way everyone made a mockery of his life.
At least consistency is there.
catmman on July 1, 2009 at 7:19 PM
I agree. Pictures looked worse than the video. Actually that little whatever thing Spike Lee was doing disturbed me more.
Caper29 on July 1, 2009 at 7:20 PM
Is that what drop it like it’s hot means? Really?
myrenovations on July 1, 2009 at 7:21 PM
I think I missed something. It’s probably my old ears, but I didn’t get it. Maybe the computer or the tape quality but I didn’t hear the issue. What did the dirtbag say?
LarryG on July 1, 2009 at 7:21 PM
Wow, you people are sad.
There are so many things to dog Sharpton about, but this?
Come ON!
They are DANCING to MJ’s MUSIC. The man was a MUSICIAN.
What don’t you get?
bridgetown on July 1, 2009 at 7:21 PM
I don’t remember that. Seems odd because there was a time when they were exploiting the heck out of him. I know this because I received a bottle of Love Me Tender shampoo from a friend who visited Graceland years ago.
sherry on July 1, 2009 at 7:21 PM
Sharpton didn’t do anything wrong here, he actually backed away and his moves aren’t that bad. Spike Lee on the otherhand…that was offensive. This is the guy who always makes jokes about white men not being able to dance or jump? LOL.
Daemonocracy on July 1, 2009 at 7:23 PM
Wish I could dance as well as Sharpton, but alas, I’m just a white girl. lol
bridgetown on July 1, 2009 at 7:24 PM
sherry on July 1, 2009 at 7:21 PM
They didn’t allow the cameras in the service. They covered the procession to the cemetary. Rex Humbard preached and the best gospel groups from across the nation performed. Now, Elvis Presley Enterprises has definitely merchandised him over the years to the fan base.
kingsjester on July 1, 2009 at 7:24 PM
I really hope they don’t have a public funeral for MJ.
I heard they were going to have a viewing??? Oh, I hope that’s false.
Of all things…I hope it is kept very private.
bridgetown on July 1, 2009 at 7:26 PM
I don’t expect mass mourning for celebrities or entertainers. I also don’t understand it. I don’t get the need to put teddy bears, notes and flowers out for people that I do not know.
myrenovations on July 1, 2009 at 7:27 PM
I bet it was an amazing tribute. The good old days of decorum. You’re right, the funeral of MJ will be a spectacle.
sherry on July 1, 2009 at 7:27 PM
Swawmy Hornet sees Al Sharpton launching himself onto the coffin as it is lowered into the ground, knowing that he will be banished to obscrurity once again after the she-king of pop is feeding the trees.
Lack of class.

White girls can dance — don’t be saying that
I’ve gotten some good lap dances from white girls at school.

Okay everything is true minus the second sentence.
blatantblue on July 1, 2009 at 7:31 PM
That’s awful, but probably better for the gene pool. You don’t want these people breeding or heaven forbid, voting. We have enough problems as it is.
HornetSting on July 1, 2009 at 7:31 PM
It’s just a guy dancing, that’s cool. Except:
A: It’s at a memorial tribute
B: He’s a “civic leader” (I guess)
C: He’s a “reverend” (Again, I guess)
It just shows a lack of class. But that iu pretty much par for the course anymore.
WitchDoctor on July 1, 2009 at 7:31 PM

Didn’t you hear? Sharpton is going on an education tour with Obama’s Education Secretary. You know, because we want him around impressionable minds.

Ummmm…watching Rev. Al gettin’ his freak on with anyone, at any time, is disturbing.
As a matter of fact, the mere thought of Rev. Al gettin’ his freak on, period, is disturbing.
Excuse me while I gouge my eyes out, won’t you?
uncivilized on July 1, 2009 at 7:33 PM
It’s a black thing you wouldn’t understand. Racist. :-0
Seriously, I think Sharpton should be in jail for some of the crap he’s done- Twana Brawley (sp?) for example. But it isn’t like Sharpton got up at the memorial service and was grinding it with LaToya in front of the casket.
highhopes on July 1, 2009 at 7:34 PM
I just keep picturing Sharpton grinding his thang up on some chick near the casket in the church

And now for the news. The Santa Barbara chapter of NAMBLA sponsored their own unique homage to the fallen rock star today. They donated a life size Ice Cream stick replica of Micheal Jackson to the boys of Cub Scout Troupe 69 of Southern CA and watched as the youngsters licked and nibbled the quirkey treat right down to the stick. One witness said that as the sun melted the face, it began to look more and more like the real thing, until the corners of the mouth seemed to form a bizarre agonizing smile. Several members of NAMBLA passed out cold.

Umm..he was DANCING….this isn’t the middle east where music and dancing is banned. Where in the bible does it say that dancing is not okay? No class? Oh Puuulleeaaazzzeeeeee
You people want to dog Al Sharpton, go for it, but this is pathetic!

Sharpton is NOT a Christ-like reverend. Read the article below of a REAL BLACK Christian pastor that has a moral character and backbone to stand up for what is biblical. His 2nd to the last paragraph sums up THE ONE to a T!!
A black evangelical Christian pastor and former NFL linebacker says there was “absolutely no truth in anything” President Obama said in his speech to homosexuals in the East Room of the White House Monday.
President Obama promised LGBT (lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender) supporters Monday at a White House “gay pride” celebration that he “will continue to be an ally and a champion” for their agenda, once again vowing he will repeal the Defense of Marriage Act and the military’s “don’t ask, don’t tell” policy. (Related article: Obama White House not appealing transgender ruling)
Ken Hutcherson, senior pastor of Antioch Bible Church in Washington state, says it is “a shame” that the president is “supporting what destroys the family.”
Ken Hutcherson”There’s absolutely no truth in anything he said, from beginning to the end,” says Pastor Hutcherson. “There is no such thing as [a] biblical stance for homosexuality, if you use the Bible. If you want to use any other denomination, feel free — but where I stand is…biblical; it is marriage between one man [and] one woman, and that is the relationship, heterosexual, that is ordained, blessed, and called by God.”
In his talk, Obama acknowledged that many Americans still disapprove of homosexuality. “There are still fellow citizens, perhaps neighbors or even family members and loved ones, who still hold fast to worn arguments and old attitudes,” he stated. (See related article) Hutcherson says those comments demonstrate the president has contempt for more than just conservative Christians.
“I think this president has a disdain for anyone who disagrees with anything about him — don’t just limit it to Christians and conservatives,” he remarks. “Brother, this man doesn’t like anyone who doesn’t think he’s the smartest man in the world.”
Hutcherson says until conservative Christians make their small voice a dominating one, there is nothing that will stop President Obama from pushing for the legalization of same-sex “marriage.”
