We always knew that Filipinos were amongst the best movers in Asia by a landslide, with even inmates capable of some impressive moves. Hence, it’s not really a surprise that a new tribute to Michael Jackson by these same rapists and killers has received + 1.7 million hits since last Friday already. Unfortunately it isn’t nearly as entertaining as their earlier work of Thriller, where one inmate in particular very accurately plays a girl who is being “thrilled.” On the other hand, this new release has gone for the gusto and incorporated MJ’s choreographer and a couple of his dancers too.

We guess times got tough for the crew after he kicked the bucket and the Filipino prison was happy to help out. The irony of the Philippines’ reputation for underage sex rings combined with a prison-tribute to Michael Jackson doesn’t escape us. But hey, kudos to the guards for giving criminals a chance to shake what their momma gave them and receive worldwide praise and recognition for it. Enjoy.
