Asked to appear on the Australian variety hour Hey Hey It’s Saturday as a guest judge, Harry Connick Jr. stares in disbelief when a Jackson 5 impersonation group entirely in blackface appears onstage. First he gives the group a zero scorecard for the performance while the audience boos; later, at end of clip, Connick breaks down the reason why blackface is a bad thing. “If I knew that was going to be a part of the show, I definitely wouldn’t have done it,” Connick declares on live TV.

props to Harry Connick Jr. for standing up and speaking on his views!!!
