Handing in your resignation is never fun, especially when you’re worried about getting proper references from your boss. But if you want to leave an impression on your former employees, then why not hire a bunch of singers to do it for you?
Filmed for The Steve Harvey Show, this man decided to quit his coffee show job in style by organizing a group of Motown singers to do his dirty work for him.
Sure, this is cute. But going through all this trouble makes me wonder just how terrible his job really was.
Motown legends the Temptations will sing the U.S. national anthem at the NCAA championship game in Detroit Monday night.
It marks the first time a vocal group, rather than a solo artist, will do the honours at the men’s basketball national championship game.
NCAA senior vice president Greg Shaheen told the Detroit News it was an honour to have the Temptations sing at the Final Four in the city of their roots. “This is a special treat for our fans, our student-athletes and everyone who traveled to Detroit for this year’s NCAA championship game,” he said.
Music legend SMOKEY ROBINSON has slammed the makers of the film DREAMGIRLS for disparaging the reputation of Motown founder BARRY GORDY.
The film is inspired by the story of THE SUPREMES, who were created by Gordy, and Robinson believes there are too many inaccuracies in the film, which damages the Motown legend’s legacy.
He tells ACCESS HOLLYWOOD, “The creators of the Dreamgirls movie have blatantly indicated that they are depicting Berry Gordy and DIANA ROSS and The Supremes and Motown and they have done it with a lot of false information and negativity.”
Robinson was particularly offended by JAMIE FOXX’s portrayal of Gordy and insists his friend never paid DJ’s to play his artist’s songs or dealt with organized crime figures as depicted in the film.
He adds, “Berry Gordy created something with his dream that allowed a lot of other dreams to come true and he did it with integrity, he did it with honesty. As a member of the Motown family, it’s insulting to me. I think they owe Barry Gordy a public apology and they should do it rapidly!”
