Jerome Benton is an American music performer, supporting dancer, and comedian. He can be seen in Janet Jackson and Prince's music videos, but he's known for his collaborations with Morris Day and The Time. Benton is the brother of Time's bassist Terry Lewis and worked closely with the band backstage during their early days. During a performance, singer Morris Day asked someone to bring him a mirror. Benton responds by tearing up a mirror in the club's bathroom and bringing it on stage for Day to brush his hair. This action elevates Benton's ability to fit into the group like a comic book image for Day, as well as his ability to dance and provide backing vocals. In 1983, when Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis missed a concert in San Antonio, Benton was instructed by Prince to pretend to fill Lewis on stage with his bass draw, while Prince provided the bass. Jam and Lewis were ultimately fired from the tour.
