Usher As Gene Kelly In Singing In The Rain

Dec 9, 2007 AT 08:10 am

I have a confession... I love these old school musicals! I grew up watching them with my grandmother and try to catch them on AMC whenever I can. Here is Usher performing Gene Kelly's memorable performance in Singing in the Rain.

And here is the original in case you were in that kind of mood.

I love to watch Turner Classic Movies with Robert Osborne. Singing. This movie is on there once in awhile. It is one of my favorites. I love the Gene Kelly version. Usually the first version of most things is the best. But I give Usher credit for giving it a try.

these new movies uses special effects to make a star, the personal talent made the golden age of hollywood, stars like gene kelly and others were great.
