MJ’s new signature dance move, Penguin, set to sweep fans

LONDON - Michael Jackson’s completely new signature dance move in a new footage while rehearsing for his comeback concerts may soon become a rage amongst his fans.

The King of Pop, in the move, being called as the Penguin, was seen flapping his right arm up and down very quickly as his body shimmied while standing on the spot.

Jackson was spotted doing the hilarious Penguin in the video, thought to be from the This Is It movie rehearsal footage, as renowned choreographer Kenny Ortega coached and watched him over, reports the Sun.

The move was due to expand his signature repertoire of dance steps including the legendary Moonwalk, Anti-Gravity Lean, and Crotch Grab.

It would be no surprise if kids and adults tried to ape the Jackson Penguin, which West End star Ricko Baird said was not easy to imitate.

He said: “Michael was just so talented and he made it all look so easy. Some of his moves like the Moonwalk - and now the Penguin - are actually very difficult and need a lot of practice.”

Business analyst Christian Severina, 35, London, said: “I love Michael Jackson and I love his dancing. But this was really tricky to do it with the same grace and speed he does it. I ended up looking like I was having a fit.”

Hannah Turner, 16, of Essex, added: “Oh my god I look like such a wally. Only Michael Jackson can make that look cool.” (ANI)

I agree with you MDH. “Jacko” was never cute or clever to begin with and now, with the press, too stupid to get over the name, using it as much as ever, it’s getting way beyond irritating. Grow up and just report the facts. It’s “JACKSON”

Well , kenny has denied knowing anything about a penguin dance ,
Thats a media fabricated name and article for some odd movement that we dont know if Michael was asking the musicians to start playing or what.
Stop fabricating articles and please stop calling him Jacko (article above) both things are quite disrespectful and lack of ethics
