Michael Jackson Memorial Service


Michael Jackson’s Memorial Service went down as one of the biggest events that have occurred in the past 30 years. There were breath taking performances from people the legendaries music genius’ like Stevie Wonder, Lionel Richie, and Mariah Carey, R&B sensation Usher, and Britain’s Got Talent finalist Shaheen Jafargholi. Other celebrities like talented basketball player Kobe Bryant, actress and singer Queen Latifa, and long time friend Brooke Shields made heartfelt speeches including family friends like Reverend Al Sharpton, Martin Luther King III.

The Memorial ended with a few words from 2 of his brothers and a teary goodbye from his daughter Paris saying, “Ever since I was born, daddy has been the best father you could ever imagine, and I just wanted to say I love him so much.” She was crying too much to be able to say anymore and was escorted off stage by the very own Janet Jackson.

There were tears and laughter among everyone there, whether it was from the audience, performers, or speakers. It was without a doubt a beautiful ceremony.
