COREY FELDMAN'S RECENT PERFORMANCE ON THE TODAY
SHOW HAS GONE VIRAL ALTHOUGH PROBABLY NOT FOR THE
REASONS THAT HE WOULD LIKE.
LET'S TAKE A LOOK AT SOME VIDEO.
SO THERE WE SEE SOME DANCE MOVES.
IT'S PRETTY GOOD HONESTLY.
THAT IS VERY CHOREOGRAPHED.
ITíS VERY SIA.
FOR SOMEONE WHO IS DEAD ON THE INSIDE, IT SEEMS LIKE
HE IS DOING A GOOD JOB APPEARING VERY MUCH ALIVE.
HE DOES LOOK LIKE A VERY GOOD REANIMATION OF COREY FELDMAN.
DO WE HAVE A CLIP OF THAT SONG PERFORMANCE?
TELL ME WHAT IS HAPPENING.
YOU HAVE A GRIM REAPER LOOK
GOING AND THERE ARE ANGELS HERE.
ACTUALLY THE WHOLE THEME OF THE ALBUM IS GOOD VERSUS EVIL,
HEAVEN VERSUS HELL.
THAT SORT OF THING.
THEY ARE ANGELIC
AND IF YOU LOOK ACTUALLY AT THE ARTWORK ON THE ALBUM, YOU WILL
SEE THAT IS ME TRYING TO CRAWL OUT OF A FIERY PIT.
HE LEARNED THOSE DANCES.
LET ME JUST GIVE YOU
A LITTLE BIT
OF CONTEXT BEFORE WE GET A
REACTION AND THEN I DO ACTUALLY THINK WE HAVE A VIDEO OF THE
SONG A LITTLE BIT THAT I'M GOING TO THROW TO.
IN A NOW DELETED
FACEBOOK LIVE POST, COREY AND ONE OF HIS ANGELS, COURTNEY ANN,
SPOKE OUT ABOUT HOW HURT THEY WERE BY THE PUBLIC REACTION TO
THIS SONG AND HIS DANCE.
HE SAYS QUOTE WE JUST WANTED TO
TELL EVERYBODY THAT, LIKE, IT'S BEEN REALLY PAINFUL.
WE PUT
OURSELVES OUT THERE.
WE DID THE BEST THAT WE COULD.
AND, LIKE,
I'VE NEVER HAD SUCH MEAN THINGS SAID ABOUT ME LIKE CONSTANTLY.
HE GOES ON TO SAY IT WAS A SONG OKAY?
IT WASN'T THAT WEIRD.
ADDING I'M SORRY IF IT'S NOT GOOD ENOUGH FOR YOU BUT YOU
DON'T HAVE TO BEAT US UP.
I JUST WANT TO SAY THAT, LIKE, WHY
IS IT OKAY TO, LIKE, PUBLICLY SHAME US?
AND THEN FINALLY
PUBLIC SHAMING SHOULD NOT BE ACCEPTED NO MATTER WHO YOU ARE.
IT DOESN'T MATTER IF THEY ARE A CELEBRITY OR NOT.
WE DESERVE
LOVE AND NORMAL LIFE.
IT IS NOT OKAY OR ACCEPTABLE TO CALL US
FREAKS, WEIRDOS, LOSERS, WHATEVER.
I WOULD SOMEWHAT
AGREE WITHTHAT , HOWEVER HE DID PUT YOURSELF OUT THERE ON PERHAPS
ONE OF THE MOST PUBLIC TELEVISION SHOWS, THE TODAY SHOW.
BEFORE I GET A REACTION CAN WE GO TO THE LAST VIDEO OF
THE ACTUAL SONG?
SO WE CAN GET A GAUGE ON OUR MUSICAL
SENSIBILITIES WITH THAT.
CAN ANYONE GO ON TO THE TODAY SHOW
FOR THE CONCERT SERIES?
ARIANNA GRANDE, *NSYNC, COREY FELDMAN?
ARE YOU TRYING TO SAY THAT
HE ISN'T ONE OF THE
GREATS LIKE *NSYNC?
I AM ACTUALLY SURPRISED TO HEAR THIS.
I AGREE WITH EVERYTHING YOU SAID ABOUT PUBLIC SHAMING.
IT SHOULDNíT
BE ACCEPTED AND HOW MANY TIMES HE USED THE LIKE IN HIS
MONOLOGUE?
HERE'S MY QUESTION FOR YOU GUYS.
IS IT ACTUALLY PUBLIC SHAMING IF PEOPLE'S OPINIONS WERE NOT
FAVORABLE OF HIS PERFORMANCE AND OF HIS MUSIC?
I THINK IT IS FOR YOU TO SAY THAT A LOT OF THE MEAN
COMMENTS ARE NOT OKAY AND WE WOULD NEVER CONDONE OR
SUPPORT THAT BUT IS IT REALLY PUBLIC SHAMING THAT A LOT
OF MEDIA OUTLETS WERE SAYING THIS IS NOT A GREAT PERFORMANCE.
WHAT DO YOU THINK?
I THINK PUBLIC SHAMING IS WHEN YOU SEE SOMETHING THAT IS
MEANT TO BE PRIVATE AND THEN IT SOMEHOW MAKES ITS WAY INTO THE
PUBLIC EYE AND THEN PEOPLE ARE LIKE I DON'T DISAGREE WITH THAT
AND THEN THEY START MAKING FUN OF THIS PERSON.
COREY FELDMAN
HAS BEEN A VERY PUBLIC PERSON SINCE HE WAS A BABY BASICALLY.
I AM SURPRISED THAT HE IS SURPRISED THAT HE IS GETTING
BACKLASH FROM THIS PERFORMANCE.
ONE WAY OR THE OTHER WHEN HE IS
OBVIOUSLY PUT HIMSELF OUT THERE ON MULTIPLE DIFFERENT OCCASIONS
WITH HIS ANGELS MIND YOU?
I THINK THERE WAS A SHOW
FOR IT.
THE
SONG FEATURES SNOOP DOGG AND ACTUALLY I NOTICED THIS SONG
BEFORE WHEN VIRALIF WE.
IF WE CAN PUT UP THAT TWEET THAT I MADE.
YOU MIGHT HATE YOUR JOB BUT PROBABLY NOT AS MUCH AS
SNOOP DOGG WHEN HE FEATURED ON A COREY FELDMAN SONG, AND
THAT IS FROM MAY.
I CALLED THIS BACK IN MAY.
I CAN'T BELIEVE THAT THE SONG GO FOR IT IS FINALLY GETTING THE
RECOGNITION THAT I FEEL IT DESERVES JUST SOLELY FOR
BEING SO BIZARRE.
WHAT YOU GUYS THINK ABOUT SNOOP DOGG FEATURED ON A COREY
FELDMAN SONG?
I WISH SNOOP DOGG WAS THERE ALSO DOING THE INTERPRETIVE
DANCE MOVES THAT COREY FELDMAN WAS DOING.
INTERESTINGLY ENOUGH THEY DID BRING OUT A RAPPER AND THAT
RAPPER LIP-SYNCHED OR SANG ALONG TO SNOOP DOGG'S PARTS BUT
IT WAS NOT SNOOP DOGG.
I THINK IF SNOOP WENT ON THE TODAY SHOW WITH COREY FELDMAN IT
WOULD'VE BEEN WAY MORE PUBLICLY ACCEPTED THAN JUST HAVING
COREY FELDMAN THERE ALONE.
IS THERE ANYTHING HE CAN DO TO SALVAGE THIS MUSIC CAREER
EVEN THOUGH IT HAD SUCH A POOR RECEPTION IN THE PUBLIC EYE?
IS THERE ANYTHING HE CAN DO RIGHT NOW?
SHOULD HE WORK ON HIS DANCING, SINGING, OR JUST IN GENERAL
YOU WANT TO SCRAP THE WHOLE THING?
I THINK IF YOU WANT TO BE A PRIVATE PERSON YOU NEED TO START
TO BE A PRIVATE PERSON AND DONíT BE ON TELEVISION SHOWS AND IF YOU
WANT TO PUT YOURSELF OUT THERE, UNDERSTAND THAT PEOPLE ARE GOING
TO TROLL YOU ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU PUT YOURSELF OUT THERE IN SUCH A
BIG WAY.
