Maybe Ruffin will be "under the weather"? That would be true if they sing I Wish It Would Rain! Maybe they forgot about Otis.  |

In pictures B2K look tall and thin; however, there are only four. Perhaps they will bring another singer in.
However, as in all things, money talks. It seems B2K is beginning their tour in the summer, and I wonder if Dick Clark is handling them. That way he could benefit himself in two ways. Obviously their selection to play the Temptations is connected with advertising them and promoting their tour.

Why not get the actors who portrayed them in the miniseries. Because I doubt that even if they'd been asked the actors from the movie would want to do it. They don't want to be typecast. well, i paid good money last year for 3.5 temptations! Well, this past weekend you got Four Tops and one Temptation so I think you're even at this point.

I'm not sure when they were FIRST on AB but in the book O talks about creating the "Get Ready" routine in 45mins before they had to appear on the show. Does that help?  |

But Ivory they could just use the clip on the miniseries of the actors lip syching "My Girl" I think that would be far better than getting (gulp) B2K....oh I'm getting sick again.....  Sorry. |

I have to say this, you know. The *NSYNC men do take a lot of pride in their performances (no more lip-synching!) and y'all remember they did a medley of Temptations songs during their last concert tour (we're not going to talk about how ole boy messed up the words to TWYDTTYD, though). I think, if we put some of them in the sun for a minute, they could pull it off.
You know what... on second thought even I don't think so, and I'm a fan of theirs.
They could've gotten Boyz II Men (and even brought in their original 5th member), but they're not really dancers anymore 'cause they're getting up there in age and I think Mike is still having problems with his back.
