He was just a pop star doing what his record company told him to... Give him a break! If you were offered thousands/millions of dollars to dress in flashy clothes and dance on stage in front of thousands of adoring fans who wanted you more than anything on earth wouldn't you do it? Shut up of course you would! People made money off him in every way. He sold out really fast! Can't blame a guy for trying to get his life back!
But I like where this is going so let me try one:
One time, this guy wanted to invent a new sandwhich for McDonalds, so he asked the corporate people what they thought of putting a toasted ham sandwhich in their stock, to which they replied "Excellent idea, we'll have a catchy anoying song for our commercial and it will go like this: "McHammer has arrived! It's Hammer time!" McHammer/MC Hammer... No? OK Now if it gets lamer than that... I'll be amazed.
Please pardon my pseudo-intellectuaphilisophicalismysiticality.
I have to say, Sayzak21. You noted that M.C. Hammer's show will be like the Cosby show. I missed something here, weren't the Cosbys rich. I mean I never saw an episode where Roudie sold her parachute pants to keep rumiging through a dumpster!
