Gregg Russell passed away today. Gregg was an Emmy nominated Choreographer and has worked with many stars such as Bette Midler, Gene Kelly, The Nicholas Brothers, Gregory Hines and Kenny Ortega.

But did you know that Michael Jackson hired Gregg to learn more about Tap Dancing?

Gregg was well known in the dance community for his tap dancing and was also employed on “American’s Got Talent” and “Live to Dance” TV shows.

Michael Jackson was always learning more about dance moves and dance genres and Gregg showed him few moves that the King of Pop put into practice!
