Kimmel Appearance

Excuse me everyone.  I just listened last night to that Kimmel interview for a second time.

I am about to scream.

plug your ears.

STEVIE WONDER WANTS TO WRITE A SONG WITH YOU?

YOUR SELF ESTEEM IS TOO LOW TO CALL HIM?


Hello?


WHEN DID WE HEAR THIS BEFORE?


Um...  Let me think.  There was this guy named David Foster.  He wanted you to sing at the  rehearsal for the grammies?  You thought  your voice wasn't high enough.  You thought you weren't ready?  You were scared of Celine Dion and Andrea Bocelli.  

DOES THIS RING A BELL?

"Wake up, wake up, the sun will not wait for long."

This man is not getting any younger.  

He is overweight.

Unfortunately, for various reasons, black people in the USA do not live as long as white people.

We do not have 25 years for you to get over this complex.

MAKE THAT CALL
!

Oh, and by the way, do you see that lady in the chorus just to your left?  Do you recognize her beautiful face?  

That's Judith Hill.  She is THE woman who sang THE song -- "Heal the World" at the Staples Center in front of a TV audience of 1 billion people at the memorial service of Michael Jackson.

Another self-effacing person.

She gave away her runaway worldwide hit "I Will Always Be Missing You," because she did not want to make money off Michael Jackson's death.

She has toured extensively all over the world, where people find her fascinating, beautiful talented.  

Yet she never tweets her amazing journey.

Talk about someone who does not know how to toot her own horn.

She has been featured especially on Asian TV, like Japan and China, because Asians are fascinated with mixed race people.

She's been to all kinds of countries you haven't gotten to yet.  

She's an international star.

YET

You only have her in the chorus?  

You should be doing a duet with her.  You should be using her as a ticket into an Asian tour.

She's just in the chorus?

Auggh.

----------------

Addendum.

Judith Hill was the last person to sing a duet with Michael Jackson -- in his rehearsals for "This Is It" -- the day of his death.

She was to be a featured performer in that stationary tour and she's in the movie.

Do you know who the other two women were who were supposed to be featured singers in "This Is It?"

Charice (later famously picked up by David Foster at Oprah's insistence)

and

Lady Gaga.

Michael Jackson regarded her as a similar level of talent with those power houses.

Not you?
