Shaquille O'Neal
Fu-Scnickens' "Can We Rock"
REASON: C'mon

ALTERNATE CHOICE: Skee-Lo's "I Wish"
REASON: Shaq is a tall man.

====

Lily Collins
Diana Ross' "Mirror Mirror"
REASON: She's in the movie MIRROR MIRROR

ALTERNATE CHOICE: Malcolm McLaren's "Buffalo Gals"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9SgvJY9xxcA (start with the part that begins at the 3:20 mark)
REASON: The end of the song where you hear the scratch of "gonna do it with your heart", and it ends with the girl saying "too much of that Snow White.

Also, do it for that guy at the 3:28 mark of the video. For 30 years, I always felt exactly like that guy, so... for the lone guy who wants to get down. With luck, by the time Lily Collins sits for her interview, someone will say "too much of that Snow White".

Plus, this year is the 30th anniversary of "Buffalo Gals" and for me, that song changed me the same way "The Message" and "Planet Rock" did back in 1982.
