I thought I was all Harlem Shake-d out. I was wrong.
Leave it to Grand Rapids, Clark Retirement Community and Rob Bliss to put together ANOTHER must-see video!
The Pure Michigan lip dub has been released!
The Pure Michigan Statewide Singalong debuted this afternoon at Ford Field during halftime of the Detroit Lions game, then on Youtube.
The video features Grand Rapids, Holland, Muskegon, and more!

The Grand Rapids lip dub video done last spring by Rob Bliss has gained our city quite a bit of attention since first being posted on YouTube. As a result, Grand Rapids was named ABC World News' "Persons Of The Week" back in June, and now, the video is up for an award!
The video is going up against a video by the NFL and Jeep for an Earnie award. Now, if you haven't heard of the Earnie Awards, you're not alone. In fact, it's a brand new award being presented for social media campaigns.
If you were hoping your neighbors would buy that giant waterslide and throw the block party of the century next summer...it looks like you're out of luck.
The 500 foot waterslide has sold for $9,525 and will be heading to Evart. It was used on Lyon Street in Grand Rapids last summer during an event organized by Rob Bliss. According the auction house, the waterslide was built for over $30,000.
Anybody want a giant water slide? To be more specific, does anybody want a 500 foot long water slide that once took up all of Lyon Street?
That's right, Rob Bliss' "World's Longest Waterslide" is up for sale. For auction actually. Turns out that Rob accumulated quite a tab with the city while conducting all of these big community events, and the water slide now has to be sold!
You need to filter through tons of pages when looking for good content on Facebook. So I figured I could make it a little easier on you. Below you will find the top 5 West Michigan Facebook pages to follow
Does anybody in Grand Rapids have a tougher group of critics than Rob Bliss? Even Mayor George Heartwell must be thankful that his political opponents don't give him as hard of a time as many people give Rob Bliss. Now that some time has passed since the release of 'Lip Dub' it's time to review. It's time for Bliss critics to admit: Rob Bliss was right about Grand Rapids Lip Dub.
Rob Bliss has done it again, this time with a world record "Lipdub" set to American Pie. Give yourself a big hand Grand Rapids you deserve it. After multiple takes it came down to this one, and a great video to say Grand Rapids is not dead
Do you have a voice that is better unheard? Kind of a strange question, but idea meister Rob Bliss concocted an event that brought hundreds of West Michiganders to downtown Grand Rapids on Sunday to lend our lips, not our voices.
The idea was to have as many people as possible lip sync the words to the tune of American Pie. A simple, fun time for anyone looking for something to do on a Sunday afternoon!
It's not raining paper airplanes at this Rob Bliss event. It's just raining. Bad weather has caused the filming of the Grand Rapids Lip Dub Video scheduled for today to be postponed.
'Lip Dub' will now take place Sunday, May 22, from 10a to 3p
