The Flash Mob Gets Nasty!
Filed under: Janet Jackson
We are in LOVE with this!
A flash mob took over The Grove in LA Saturday afternoon, paying tribute to Janet Jackson by replicating her signature moves in a medley of Janet tunes!
And Miss Jackson was peering down on the dancers from a balcony above the crowd!!!!
Watch the video above for the fabulocity!

I expect this kind of of retardedness from people in foreign countries that don't know any better, but Americans should know better. I guess people in LA really are just pathetic. Who would waste their time organizing this and what sort of pathetic loser would actually go out of their way to show up and participate?
I love flashmob videos, but this would have been more entertaining to me if EVERYONE down below was in the flashmob. It just looked weird with people standing there. I like the Oprah/BEP flashmob better
However on another note, I am glad Janet was happy about people having fun to her music. If this was Prince, he'd go apeshit and sue the fuck out of all those people
Why were they there to begin with?
I love Janet.
Perez,u seriously need to be more UP TO DATE with your posts. the shit u post and accept credit for..majority of the time are behind. yes u grabbed this from youtube but most people have seen this already on youtube.alot of videos fans wanna see will see it there way before you grab it n try n put it on your site.
Re: buttcrackcheese – party pooper
who the hell would pay a tribute to JANET??? Maybe she actually paid people to pay her a tribute
))
Fuck ! i live 3 blocks from the groove ! how come they didnt say anything ? hate it !
buttcrackcheese,dont hate coz u cant live in LA
Re: Vampire Slumber Party – I TOTALLY AGREE! I kept expecting the entire mob to get down just like in the Black Eyed Peas/Oprah one…so far that is the BEST one of all time. Of ALL time!! lol
Loooooove Miss Janet!!! Wish I was there, can't wait for the album!!
You know what, I was actually one of those "pathetic losers" dancing and it was very, very fun! I got to meet a lot of new, interesting people who shared a similar taste in music, and got to just be silly and young! So many people take things too seriously nowadays…ain't nothing wrong with letting loose! AND I got to do it all IN FRONT of Janet herself!
All that work and all she gave was the Miss America wave! lol She look so unbothered!
!It was soooooooooooooo much fun!!!! We loved it so much!
Umm is it really a flash mob when there are hundreds of people waiting around for it to happen? Cameras in plain sight etc.. The magical thing about that T Mobile ad was people didn't know what was going on.. same thing with the Oprah one. You get a ton of ppl sitting there waiting for it.. not to exciting. - Yeah and Perez your posts are old as hell these days. So much for being on top of Celeb gossip.
Brilliant! Must have made Janet feel fantastic.
This looks so awesome. I've been in a flashmob before when MJ announced This Is It… sad… anyway… it was a fun experience. And I bet doing it infront of the person your tributing it to is even better. Janet looked 'bleh' though. She could've shown more emotion.
Re: buttcrackcheese – I think you're the pathetic loser. GET A LIFE!
Re: 12ennaadnama – Well done you. It did look like fun.
As far as flashmobs go this one was an epic fail. Looked contrived, badly planned, out of synch, and oddly cramped. Plus lets get real, that hack known as Janet Jackson was there, ready to get some press, so how fucking spontaneous could that Flash M have been. All in all a big Boooooooooooooo jisssssssssss for this one.
Re: Shageen – glad someone agrees with me from the start~
i guess you had to be there–
Re: Zoologist
I COULDN'T AGREE MORE!! That was pathetic. They need to come take some lessons from the Europeans.
i think it was pretty cool, and that they should have done it to mj when he was alive too.
Niglet smile.
Re: 12ennaadnama – well said.
this was the second one they did in the day, so people knew it was coming…and janet showed up for it, so drew a crowd. maaan, some of these comments are bitchy!!! AND probably from pimply faced stoners who wish they were doing something this cool, instead of sitting on their asses eating doritos, reading about celebs!!!
What an incredibly stupid world we live in. So ridiculous.
Re: Vampire Slumber Party – Hahaha I agree with the Prince Call.
OK, if you people think paying tribute to crappy music and stupid music videos is cool then you are pathetic. People have no standards anymore, especially young people. I guess if you grow up listening to JoBros and Mylie Cyrus, Janet Jackson seems like a musical genius.
Re: 12ennaadnama –
You're taste in music sucks.
very good for her.she is also really hoooot.check out her sex tape at w w w . u s e x e d . c o m /sexy
Some people have too much time on their hands…
Re: buttcrackcheese – i supposer anyone with a name like buttcrackcheese would be this cynical about people having a good time
I like
Janet//♥♥\\
xoxoxoxoxox
mornin
peepz♥♥
xoxoxoxox
I love Janet's classics!! xx
I'm not opposed to people having a good time, but I guess the entire time I watched this I wondered why they didn't have anything better or more constructive to do with their free time. Great to be part of a flash mob if that's your thing, but Janet Jackson? Seriously?
Just fun!
I LOVE J-J! Ever since I was little–
I love this kind of stuff. Wish somebody would do that where I live!
Re: buttcrackcheese – So everybody that does not live in America is a retard? Nice. At least we don't have Sarah Palin and idiots like that in positions of power over here.
Re: buttcrackcheese – Are American better?
No, these are young people who chose to dance instead of doing drugs or drink themselves away.
Just enjoy the video and stop being so judgmental, enjoy life, you seems to constipated.
cock-a-doodle-do…. wake up chubby !!
Re: SheriMoonFireFly – Mornin' sweetie
I hope it made Janet feel a bit better.
OMG that was too cute! She is well love!
Oh, this is so hot!! Janet is the business!!! I am doing a flash mob of "CONTROL" right now in my own living room. Move coffee table, move!

I usually like these flashmob things but this one was lame.
Re: nezzia – LMFAO, I agree with that xD
there are MUCH better videos with footage of the Janet mob out there, way to pick the worst one.
…also, you forgot to mention the flash mob was to celebrate Janet's album release….TOMORROW!!!!
…way to show some support on your site about the album drop. Oh wait, I get it…you didn't get PAID to say a word about it, well that explains it.
I LOVE flash mobs! Aww, Janet seems to have enjoyed that.
That was pretty cool and they are having fun whats so pathetic about that? And yall call perez an asshole all the time, I think yall should take a look in the mirror. I swear this world is full of dumbass hateful people.
Re: Bored98 – No, thats ok I'd reither not take any lessons from the eurotrash.
Re: jones19 – I see some idiots in power over there right now.
Re: TheNextAwardGosTO – Your comments are quite contradicting…Moron
I'm sorry, this was horrible, too many people trying to dance in a space that is just way too small. Fail!
Would have been cool if Janet were down in it too. Or maybe flash mobs are cooler cuz they're just regular people?
What a bunch of low class white trash losers! These dipsh-its need to take some lessons from the Europeans who can plan really large flash mobs and do a great job. There are too many low class idiots in Los Angeles who are not capable of doing anything on such a grand scale. The Grove has turned into a meeting place for the low class trash of Los Angeles. So sad, it used to be a nice place to visit.
andddd this was pretty cool. why does everyone always have to hate on people? oh yeah, because youre negative pessimistic assholes.
OMG how freakin stupid are human beings today,they will follow and worship any idol nowadays , no one has balls or self esteem or any self respect, janet jackson farts and sh!ts just like we do.
haters, keep on hating. buttacrackcheese - i was one of the "pathetic" dancers who INVESTED time with this. It's fun, doesn't hurt anyone and sorry but we look awesome! You are entitled to your opinion but i just have to say that everyone had a wonderful time and we were treated with a special janet visit. keep hating becase we'll keep dancing. flash mob america - you ROCK!
Yeah this isn't really a flash mob.
This was pretty nice…yea not as organized as the Black Eyed Peas but still nice! So, let's stop with all the hatin'! JANET is a great artist who makes great music, movies and who also contributes her time and money to great causes, Where as most of u on here waste ur time acting like u have better things to do( like being on Perezhilton.com)! Enough with all the negativity and lighten up n learn to have fun( like the "idiots" who took the time to participate)! JANET ROCKS!!!!
I think all that participated in the Flash Mob did a great job and I'm sure Janet was touched by all the love. Janet is fierce and I can't wait for her new album and tour!
