Okay, in all honesty, this is a less than awesome flash mob. The numbers are small, the element of surprise is lost in the set up, and some of the dancers are down right scary (read: flailing, large men). But besides the failed attempt at being an awesome flash mob, they did grab the attention of the lady of the day, Janet Jackson.
A medley of Janet dance moves put to some of Janet's greatest hits completed the flash mob in The Grove in Los Angeles. The only impressive thing about this particular flash mob is the smile that plastered Janet's face as she watched the entire thing from a balcony on the street.
Watch the Janet Jackson flash mob below:
No doubt, this was a pleasant surprise in all the turmoil surrounding Jackson's brother, Michael's, death. With the continued accusations against his personal physicians, the turmoil surrounding his orphaned children, and the impending reality series starring Jackson family members ... Janet has no doubt found herself in the controversial spotlight a lot recently. What a relief to be honored with a flash mob and a tribute to her music.
