Don't tell me she is straight? Honey those moves could not come from a straight man. Why was Tyrone’s sexuality scratch out? Don’t tell me she is straight?

My google searching could not pull it up. Jody!--Thanks for responding to my blog post. I am glad you liked the post, and I'll just say that I loved "The Makeover" and thank you for demonstrating how an artist can walk away from the major labels, and still produce work that has integrity and remains interesting and relevant. Looking forward to the future work! Corey– thanks for letting m know about Tyrone Proctor! My google searching could not pull it up.

(www.myspace.com/jodywatley). I just wanted to thank you for the props :), it's such a nice and complimentary post. Tyrone Procter is in the video 'Still a Thrill', which was filmed in Paris. Tyrone was one of my icons, before I got to Soul Train. When I was just a kid in the midwest with aspirations, Tyrone and the other kids on Soul Train were such a big influence. Of course, we became fast friends when I arrived. Tyrone taught me so much about really 'giving it!' I had to have him in the video - my way of saying thank you! "Real Love" - well.... it still speaks volumes too :) Thank YOU Kenyon! This blog was forwarded to me by a friend of mine at my myspace page. (www.myspace.com/jodywatley).

Still a Thrill is SUCH a hot song. Someone should remake it...but only with Ms Watley's blessing and assurance they'll do the song justice.

I don't remember this song. And I may be wrong on this, but I'm almost certain the male dancer's name is Tyrone Proctor. Jody and Tyrone could ALWAYS be seen dancing on Soul Train back in the 70's. Even back then, he would execute dance moves that would later be adopted by the Ball Culture and become known as voguing. Odd. I don’t remember this song.
