Wade Robson: Michael Jackson Was a Family Man

World-renown choreographer Wade Robson talks to ET about the private side of Michael Jackson.

Wade has worked with the likes of Britney Spears and many more, but before he taught the moves -- he learned Michael's. At just 8-years-old, the dancer was already perfecting the moonwalk and appearing in Jackson's video for his song, "Jam."

But beyond the music, Wade says Michael was a friend and family man. "We talk so much about him as the pop legend, which is important," he says. "But we need to remember that he was a man and a father and that's what it's about. He was a wonderful father," he adds.

Now Wade is paying respects to the late superstar by choreographing a dance tribute for the upcoming MTV VMA awards -- which will feature performances by Green Day and Pink.
