Eight-year-old Willie taught himself to dance like Michael Jackson and Ellen couldn’t wait to see his skills in person!

Willie osbourne hails from Lansing, IL and he's taught himself how to dance like Michael Jackson, mainly by watching videos that his mom would show him. His whole neighborhood would stop and watch his performances in front of his house (especially after his parents built a stage in their drive way to show off WIllie's mad skills).

Ellen had him on her huge afternoon show, and now Willie is nationwide. Watch as he nails the dance moves from 'Smooth Criminal' like a boss. Which is pretty amazing considering he's never had a dance class.
