According to Reality Blurred, Nigel originally asked Paula, “Will you choreograph an Michael Jackson tribute for us this week?” He then asked his followers to “use Twitter-Power” and “Ask @PaulaAbdul to choreograph a Michael Jackson tribute on So You Think You Can Dance.” Paula, who was at the American Idol tour rehearsals, responded to Nigel with this: “Have your people call my people Nigel and let’s do it! lol.”

Nigel, however, later updated his followers on plans for the tribute, first writing, “Mia has chosen the song she likes, we’ve spoken to Wade. I’ve left messages for Paula. I’ve spoken to Shane. We have to make this happen!!?”

The only hold up so far isgetting the rights to Michael Jackson’s music. “There is a problem clearing Michael’s music at the moment. We are trying to make contact with Sony to get clearance on an all Michael So You Think You Can Dance,” he wrote yesterday morning.

His last update on the tribute stressed that this wouldn’t be happening on Wednesday’s episode: “Don’t get carried away everyone. It won’t be the NEXT show these things take time to organize, clear and choreograph. I’ll keep you posted.”
