MJ Inspired Actor Gerard Butler To Dance

(26-3-2013) Gerard Butler was so inspired to dance like Michael Jackson that he once booked a one-on-one hip-hop class. The Scottish actor is a keen dancer, and he was blown away when he watched the ‘This Is It’ movie, which features Michael during rehearsals for the ‘This Is It’ concerts shortly before his death in 2009. Butler developed an urge to replicate Michael’s signature moves:

“This is how sad I am: after watching This Is It about Michael Jackson, I went to a hip-hop one-on-one class. It was just me and this top-notch choreographer. I was running late. I was in the middle of getting ready for [the surfer movie] ‘Chasing Mavericks’ so I was this white guy with long hair. The guy was like, in the nicest way, ‘Why are you here?’ I was all right. People always used to say I was born with black in my soul.”

Gerard James Butler (in English: Gerard James Butler) (born November 13, 1969) is a Scottish actor, best known for his role in the film 300.

The plot revolves around King Leonidas (Gerard Butler), who leads 300 Spartans into battle against Persian “god-King” Xerxes (Rodrigo Santoro) and his army of more than 300,000 soldiers.

The film’s plot is a fictionalized version of the Battle of Thermopylae, which took place in 480 BC between the Persian army under Xerxes and the Greek army under Leonidas. In this story, 300 Spartan warriors resist Xerxes’s million-strong army. This battle takes place at the narrow pass of Thermopylae near Athens and lasts about three days. The Achaemenid imperial army is stopped by 300 Spartan fighters at Thermopylae, and only succeeds in defeating them when, due to the betrayal of a Greek, another way is found to outflank them and surround the Spartans.
