Wade Robson

At the age of 11 Robson had an agent. Along with friend DeWayne Turrentine, he formed the hip hop duo Quo and by the end of the year released an album on Michael Jackson's MJJ Music label through Epic/SME Records. The following year, he was teaching dance classes in Hollywood. He formed a troupe of dancing children which performed internationally. He received his first choreography job for the R&B group Immature at fourteen. The job led to others, for artists such as Britney Spears. Being a self-described "short little white kid", his clients were sometimes hesitant to follow his direction. When Spears first interviewed Robson to choreograph her tour, she exclaimed "He's a friggin' baby!" as she had expected him to be in his 30s or 40s.

During the late 1990s, while still a teenager, Robson choreographed Spears's Pepsi commercials including one which aired during the 2001 Super Bowl. Read Less
