DeShawn Is a Music Star

Well, I can basically guarantee that I was the only person inside the Olympic Basketball Gymnasium watching a music video of DeShawn Stevenson’s YouTube lip sync debut during the USA-Greece game. But the other thousands of hoops fans were not seeing nearly the entertainment that I was.

The description calls it “the best video ever put on youtube,” and that’s probably not far off. More to the point, for those of us worried that last year’s Season of DeShawn was a one-time blip of unbridled weirdness, DeShawn the Usher-Channeling Music Star is here to show us that we needn’t worry. His head might be cut off from the top of the screen, and his mouth might not always match up with the words, but this is magic.
