I assisted the choreographer,
Michael Peters,
for Beat It and Thriller.
As the assistant,
you cleaned everything.
And I was considered,
like, THE best assistant around,
because I was crazy.
every head precise,
everywhere you looked precise,
every movement precise.
So when it became my turn
to actually create
and be the choreographer,
that was one of the things that
So, Annie, are you OK?
Are you OK, Annie?
Annie, are you OK?
Will you tell us that you're OK?
There's a sign in the window
That he struck you
a crescendo, Annie
He came into your apartment
And left the bloodstains
on the carpet
And then you ran into the bedroom
You were struck down
It was your doom...
on that precision part.
The moves were extremely tight.
I do remember one time
Vince came in and said,
"You know, now, we need
"because it's not really
And Michael asked me, "Are these
really the best dancers in LA?"
It's like the gauntlet
being thrown down, you know?
You'd better show
that you are the best.
- Annie, are you OK?
- Are you OK, Annie?
Ow!
- Annie, are you OK?
- I don't know
- Will you tell us that you're OK?
- I don't know

- I don't know
- And left the bloodstains on the carpet
- I don't know why, baby
And then you ran into the bedroom
You were struck down
It was your doom...
Vince really approached this...
giving us the assignment.

asked to come up with characters,

why we were in the setting
that was given to us.

- There's a sign in the window
- Dag gone it, baby

- Hoo! Hoo!
He came into your apartment.
This is the area that I grew up in.
And this was a very conservative,
fairly, you know, repressed,
depressed area.
We lived sort of
on the wrong side of the tracks,
you could smell what was going on
on the other side, you know?
Elvis Presley, actually.
Where he could...
He was on the white side
and the blacks were on the other.
With us, it wasn't a racial thing.
But I kept wandering
into those other little worlds.
Wow. Bizarre.
It's so small.
living in that house?
If you want.
