He is honestly one of the biggest posers and Try-hards out. He tries too hard to be down I prefer him with the long hair he seemed more real.

yes! I totally agree. He can sing but these crappy types of songs, his put-on way of speaking and his attempt at swagger are such a joke. I don't find him sexy either but I still prefer him to the mediocre and equally poser-ish Timberlake. The only thing JT's got over Thicke as far as talent is concerned is dancing

Yeah, now that's a REAL poser. I have to laugh every time I hear someone say Timberlake has Soul. I'm like, Soul? Where is it? On the bottom of his shoe??? Cause it sure as hell ain't in his music!

I love the music, but Sex Therapy made me lose all respect for him.

You should check out his latest CD 'Love After War'.It's an excellent return to form after the disappointing 'Sex Therapy'.

I did and I like it, but Sex Therapy scarred me.

LMAO!! i was about to make a gif out of that dance sooner or later *saved on computer*

Can't wait to see it. I actually did like that dance though. She was killing it, which is why it was hilarious. I love the ST audience's expressions: "GO IVORY!" was probably what they were saying.

I don't think adult, straight, white, non-drunk men are allowed to dance without being made fun of. For some reason, it's socially unacceptable (with some minor acceptions). As where women, gays, blacks, etc. are "allowed" to dance pretty much whenever they want. I'm guessing the taboo is because if white men do dance and show any skill at it (or enjoyment of it), they'll be looked at as feminine, gay, or trying-to-be black.

Saying "White Men" can't dance "because of so and so" in 2012 is like saying all "White women" have flat Butts....We have to move pass the stereotypes....

You owe me a pony for exposing me to this shite.

Never mind the dancing. I can't get over how horrendous the song is!

For real. The premise of this thread is like pointing out the runny nose of a man having a heart attack.

Even though the OP did title it "dude cannot dance" lol I never liked much of Robin's material except of songs from his debut and "Lost Without U".

He'll be one of many:

• Smokey Robinson
• Mary Wilson
• The Four Tops (yeah I said it)
• The DeBarges/El DeBarge (seriously they dance with two left feet, El's dancing makes me cringe)
• Keri Hilson (though I don't know if she's even consider music )
• Mary J. Blige (though I love her TWO-STEP lmao)
• Whitney Houston (no brainer )
• Lionel Richie
• Lady Tee at the beginning of her career (her "Behind the Groove" dance was hilarious)
• Patti LaBelle (yeah I know but seriously she can't, she can roll down on the floor good though)
• Aretha Franklin (to defend her though she's only doing what people do when they get the Holy Ghost)
• Mariah Carey (she shouldn't even dance or do dance music anymore, just sing ballads from now on)

So Robin's part of a good group. Add more if y'all need to or disagree with some of my choices I don't care.

Mick Jagar

Thom Yorke

Dave Gahn

Donna Summer

Rick James

I would add to that list

Oh & Axl Rose for his infamous''snake'' dance

The dude got Paula Patton. He don't need to dance another day in his life. I'm just sayin'.

I agree,this is the WORST song that Robin has ever done I'm gonna assume that his record company convinced him to go in this direction.

I laughed for a good 5 minutes over Patti. I just got finished watching a video of her rolling on the floor and jumping up and down. Lord LORD. As for Robin, I had no idea he made songs that required dancing. If he can't dance, he should stick to the baby making hits...or just come to my door covered in whipped cream and caramel. That works too.

Straight men CAN dance.

Really? Maybe a few of them can but that average straight guy? - No! I've seen so many dancefloors all over Europe and this is my honest impression. If a straight white guy can dance it's by learning while ourselfs do it naturally, that's the difference!

I'm glad you added the caucasian factor...because in Latin America, any straight man that CAN'T dance is pretty much handicapped.

That was fucking awful. I'm not a fan of Mr. Thicke and I fucking hate Nikki Minaj. I hate these white boys tryna be black, like a wise person said "everybody wants to be black without being black." Justin Timbershit is the same damn way. Goddamn posers make me sick to my fucking stomach.

I don't think he's trying to be black. He was just more influenced by R&B music. Did you ever accuse Teena Marie or Lisa Stansfield of trying to be black? Or how about Micheal Jackson, Prince, Siedah Garrett, Sandra St. Victor or Tina Turner of trying to be white because they've recorded Rock music, or music that is typically associated with whites? Since Lionel Ritchie recorded a Country & Western album, is he trying to be white?

Nah he can do real good R&B, it's just that at other times he "tries too hard". Come on, does anyone think him being with Lil Wayne is a good thing. He ain't trying to be black I don't think though. But he SHOULD know his limits. Like if you're gonna do uptempo records and such, either dance or stick to the slower, mid-tempo songs. And if you are gonna dance, work at it lmao
