My favorite is the Diamonds and Pearls video, its been awhile since he has done the splits, I wonder has he stopped doing them?

I'm surprised no one mentioned the Baby, I'm a Star performance. At the end, before he turns is Honer into a super soaker, he jumps off some amps tells Fink to funk it up then spins and goes into a triple split. Amazing!

wierd! lol. It still amazes me that he can do the splits aged 46

I gotta agree..
The one where he bounced off the sofa in D&P was smooth.
He catches the Pearls in his other hand as he comes up.

Thats good direction!
What was that old woman's name that directed it??

every time I see a picture of her I think what a beautiful woman...

Certainly not his split with WB.

The splits he does on It's Gonna Be A Beautiful Night and The multiple splits on If I Was Your Girlfriend, both from The Sign O The Times movie...love those!

Oh and one that totally stand out for me...when I saw the Lovesexy show at the Los Angeles Sports Arena.

During U Got The Look, he slid I don't know how many feet down a catwalk, but he was doing the splits AND holding his guitar at the same time! Like playing it! It seemed impossible!

It was the most amazing dance move I had ever seen!

LITTLE RED CORVETTE VIDEO: I was an instant fan after that~
