Well, I assume a career in porno is now topping the list for them.

They mentioned this on their Twitter page. They went through a lot of the audition process, but ended up not being picked in the end. Eh well.

Not to be mean but the email from the "angent" said sex appeal, talent, acting skills, etc. To me, the twins dont incorporate any of that except hair thrashing and I didnt hear that on the list.

And why would Michael Jackson want Prince's leftovers? neutral

Why Judas? Are they supposed to be loyal to Prince and never work with anyone ever again? That's dumb.

Maybe he is "too far gone" if he turned them down.

I guess Michael ain't into them dancing and leaving purpleness all over his stage. razz

I think the relation with Prince is too close, Michael Jackson & Prince have been compared since the 80's even at a James Brown celebration Mike had James call out Prince to a bit of a show down.

I wouldn't think the Twinz would get picked either, maybe they should try out for Madonna though

That's bunk. Jamie King, who is a dancer, choreographer and now tour director, danced with Prince in 1996 for the Emancipation concert, and choregraphed other things for Prince. He worked with Michael within a year for "Blood On The Dance Floor" video and tour. He has also worked with Madonna on her last few tours. John Blackwell toured with Justin Timberlake, then is rumored to have recorded with Prince again. Yet JT supposedly dissed Prince in a song, after Prince made a nudge at him at a concert. Eddie Morales has worked with Janet, Justin, and Madonna. Would Prince not hire him for any of those reasons should he pop up in auditions? Tina Landon has worked with EVERYONE.

The point is that these people who are dancers, singers, and musicians are hired help. They have no allegiance to Prince ONLY (or Janet only or MJ only), just because the media has created some long stand, bullshit shitstorm between MJ and Prince. They are out there looking for work. Whether it's with Prince, MJ, Madonna, Janet, or fucking Britney Spears, they will work when hired for a job they want. So this "relation with Prince is too close" is a bit far fetched. It makes for a good story, but does anyone think that MJ (and the people around him who are part of the audition process early on, which The Twinz were a part of) give a crap that on a resume it says "Danced with Prince for a few years"?

"Oh..they worked with Prince. Now MJ and Prince have had their issues. I read it in a magazine. So MJ probably won't want them in his band this time around. They're good, but let's cut them for THAT reason and THAT reason alone." Nuh-uh. Don't think so.

Prince already "did" the Twins. What is the point of Michael Jackson copying him?

I understand that they are "dancers" and work with everyone but once you see the twin gimmick, the bidness is aint cutting edge or different, its called played out.

Mikey is playing the 02 HELLO? Why would he want the Twins in the same venue that Prince just did two years ago? If he took one and they were in an ensemble maybe but they were only looking for TWO female dancers.

Again, Mike is not slurping up after P, over his dead sequined body.

okay... spit
last line = funniest shit ever.
you are so right.
contrary to popular belief around here
mike is not on prince's dick.
hes trying to come back strong,
not on the coat tails of someone else.
this is it.
take him as he is.
...then he turned to me and said "I dare you".

Okay, I think the twinz can dance, but not good enough for M.J. MJ dancers have a unique style and I mean you just got to bring it.

Okay! lol That must be quite a disappointment to them; I remember when they first starting appearing with Prince, their myspace page said MJ was one of their favorite entertainers. (No mention of Prince back then though. rolleyes) HA! I think (and hope) their 15 minutes are pretty much over, I thought they were horrible.

I agree, just watched the video, the twinz werent dancing full out, LA dancers tend to move more "lazily" than other dancers, they probably would have booked it if they moved a lot more and moved more fluidly . although MJJ moves mechanically its still very fluid

Have you ever seen Madonna's tour dcumentaries? Her dancers are AMAZING. These girls are very cute, but they have nowhere near the technical prowess to make the cut for a Madonna audition, let alone a tour as grueling as hers with such complicated stage shows shake

well they can't be to sad they were Prince's dancing Chihuahuas for a while, so that's a great accomplishment. During Vegas all they did pre-sound check was roll their eyes and throw treats at people.


An album coming out .....maybe they'll wanna hear it in Australia smile

Some people may not like them as dancers especially 4 Prince
But they are attractive, (I don't know what defines attractive 2 U) but they are attractive, And if Prince didn't think so they would not have been there. Same goes for sex appeal. Of course if it's not in your appetite it won't turn your head, by the ladies are sexy...and attractive

What if I called U silly names
Just like the ones that U call me?
What if I filled your eyes with tears
So many that U cannot see?

CHORUS:
Billy Jack Bitch - Do U ever really cry? (Billy Jack Bitch)
Billy Jack Bitch - Do U ever really try? (Billy Jack Bitch)
Billy Jack Bitch - Do U ever wonder why? (Billy Jack Bitch)

What if I told U that U're worth
Only half of what U be?
Would U come forth and tell no lies?
Would U come forth and talk 2 me?

CHORUS

What distortion could U let your pen forget 2day?
What misfortune left your heart so broken U only say
Words intended 2 belittle or dismay?
What if I say U lie?

Open letters aren't the only things that open wounds
Long hard shiny rocket ships can fly U 2 the moon

Whenever evil wants 2 groove
Come let me fly U 2 the moon
Then U can see how love will bloom
Joy - it's in the dictionary
See "J" - Billy Jack Bitch

Do U ever really cry? (Do U ever really cry Billy Jack Bitch?)
Do U ever really try? (Do U ever really try Billy Jack Bitch?)
Do U ever wonder why? (Do U ever wonder why Billy Jack Bitch?)
