【www.jjhyhg.com--名言经典】
这是一位相信很多舞友都不会忘记的人、一位舞界的传奇;留给我们太多的惊喜和回忆，虽然他毁誉参半，但小5依旧喜欢他，因为他为音乐、舞蹈还有公益做了很多;树大永远是招风的，去掉杰克逊被妖魔化的面具，我们可以回顾到他很多的经典——经典的机械舞舞步、经典的太空漫步，还有经典的捂档动作，那这个动作到底是什么意思呢?
首先引用MJ本人在1993年2月10日Oprah访谈中的回答：
Oprah : I have to ask you this, so many mothers in my audience have said, please ask you this question - why do you always grab your crotch?
Michael : (Giggle) Why do I grab my crotch?
Oprah : Yeah, why? We think you've got a thing with your crotch going on there.
Michael : I think it happens subliminally. When you're dancing, you know you are just interpreting the music and the sounds and the accompaniment if there's a driving base, if there's a cello, if there's a string, you become the emotion of what that sound is, so if I'm doing a movement and I go bam and I grab myself it's... it's the music that compels me to do it, it's not saying that I'm dying to grab down there and it's not in a great place you don't think about it, it just happens, sometimes I'll look back at the footage and I go ... and I go did I do that, so I'm a slave to the rhythm, yeah, okay.
奥普拉-温弗瑞：我必须问这个问题，很多为人母的观众叫我问：为什么你总是抓裤裆?
迈克尔-杰克逊：“为什么总是抓裤裆?”
奥普拉-温弗瑞：为什么?大家以为你那儿有事!(修正：我们发现你挺喜欢做那个抓裆的动作)
迈克尔-杰克逊：我觉得是潜意识作怪，我跳舞的时候……如果你是个舞者，你会明白你是在音乐的伴奏下来解读歌曲。有贝斯，就变成贝斯，有大提琴，你要融入其中。所以你会要表达那个声音所蕴含的情感内涵。所以，我在做舞蹈动作，然后突然我抓裤裆，那不是事先设计的。我并非预先计划好要抓裤裆，是没经细想，完全是自然流露的。有时回看片断我也很惊讶，我会说：“我真的做了那个动作吗?”。我是节奏的奴隶，是的，就是这样。
其次说明下，【This Is It】电影里某位伴舞督导提到了，“抓裆”动作始于俄罗斯芭蕾。原句如下：
00:48:46 I saw you, you were going like this, what is this?
00:48:48 That's Russian. This is Russian.
00:48:50 So Baryshnikov does it like this...
00:48:52 ...and you guys are doing like this. Same thing.
Stacy Walker (Associate Choreographer) 也在示范指导时表示：
00:48:58 I mean we're straight up and down now, right?
00:49:01 I don't think it's anything except hand moving.
误会——“抓裆”原是芭蕾动作
《就是这样》除了展现杰克逊的舞台风采，也试图还原曾被妖魔化的他。曾有媒体报道，当年杰克逊演唱会之所以与中国大陆失之交臂，和他在舞台上那个“抓裆”动作有关联。而在《就是这样》中，通过一个芭蕾舞蹈演员的嘴似乎替杰克逊洗脱了“冤屈”，原来那个动作是20世纪初经典芭蕾舞动作，本来是用两只手的，但杰克逊因为一只手要拿话筒，所以变成一只手抓。
