Tears for Michael Jackson
July 8th 2009 03:45
Today the world had the chance to farewell Michael Jackson with a special memorial held at Staples Centre in LA.
Family and friends as well as 17,000 fans packed out the centre while millions more watched around the world.
Whether you are a fan or not, it's hard not to be touched by the tributes and i must admit when daddy's little girl Paris Katherine took to the stage, i bawled.
Others who paid tributes included Brooke Shields, Martin Luther King III, Bernice King, Magic Johnson, Koby Bryant. Stevie Wonder, Lionel Richie, Usher, Jennifer Hudson and Mariah were some of the stars to sing as well as Michael's brother Jermaine who sang Michael's favourite song 'Smile' by Charlie Chaplin.
Michael's 14 carat casket was then carried out but his finally resting place will not be known.
