Looks like Reggae legend Shaggy was not having it with the wardrobe team for ABC’s “The Little Mermaid Live” which appeared on live TV last night.
There are some things Jamaican men don’t play with and their fashion is a top priority! Seems like the platinum-selling reggae artiste was like, “WDBBC, ah me wear crab suit? Nah Man!”
Variety was kind in their review, stating, “Shaggy’s late-period-boy-band red leather jumpsuit very roughly symbolizing what an adult man might look like as Sebastian the crab.”

Check out a snippet of “The Little Mermaid Live” below:
The actual live show really didn’t escape a beating, as USA Today‘s scathing review said: “It was a solid, full-throated effort by the actors and chorus members, but a spectacular failure of a live TV event that couldn’t get past its own awkwardness. This Tuesday night would have been better spent merely watching the original film. Or we can all just wait until Disney’s big-screen live-action remake gets made.”

The star of the show, however, seemed to be Queen Latifah, who slayed the iconic role of Ursula. We stan for Queen Latifah!
Anyhoo, big up yuhself Shaggy! Yuh rep for the Caribbean, the best way a bonafide yaadman can!
