@aksalla19 I am a hardcore MJ fan and I know how you feel but Justin does do a good job, he delivers no doubt about it. Don't forget where his inspiration comes from, it comes from MJ. To see people walking in MJ's footsteps like that is amazing and I'm sure MJ would be proud. Although no one will compare to MJ you are right but JT has talent and thats all that matters.
The performance itself isn't that great, but the way he danced and owned the stage is just amazing, very few people who can dance with style, and he's one of them.
I remember so many people at school the next day talking about this performance. Even people who hated him for being in N Sync were talking about how he was like Michael Jackson during this whole thing and yet, it actually made the performance better. Over like...80% of the people in my class bought this cd when it came out lol.
I agree! Besides JC Chasez is the better artist, the only reason Justin made it further in the solo career department is because he had more connections in the industry, I mean so does JC but not with producers, etc.
I'm sure JT could be called the Prince of Pop. The King (MJ) is the originator, but if ppl start calling JT the prince it won't help his ego. He's definately a great dancer. Him and Usher are the best!!

Usher is a better dancer than Justin. I'm not impressed with Justin as a singer, dancer or performer. I like his music but that's it. I think Usher should be called the Prince of Pop.
No lo quizo imitar, Justin siempre ha dicho que MJ es su inspiracion pero no quiere ser como él, además no es un intento frustado, si lo fuera no vendería millones de discos, así que si no te agrada JT que fregados haces viendolo
man i remember seeing this live when it aired and i was floored. thought it was a pretty sick choreography especially for a timberlake making this his first single so he had to do it big
I remember watchin this and thinking he was going to be big! It was a great beginning. Although he should have tried less to look like MJ, as that makes him look lame!
up there with the hand full of successful solo artist that left their group. included are beyonce, lionel richie and bret micheals of poison? (yeah right!)

That's just rude to say. There's nothing about Justin's accopmlishments that wasn't earned through hard work and we only see one bit of that.
JC is happy with where he is, as he said.

Michael Jackson's moves are faster, sharper, and cleaner in his style but there is no denying JT is lifting some MJ influence here.
