On July 7th, 2009, Michael Jackson’s Funeral was held at the Staples Center in Los Angeles, California.

Those who were forntunate enough to get a ticket saw amazing performances from Mariah Carey, Trey Lorenz, Usher, Jennifer Hudson, John Mayer, Stevie Wonder, Lionel Richie, & Jermaine Jackson in tribute to the King of Pop. They also heard the heart warming speeches of Brooke Shields, Rev. Al Sharpton, Martin Luther King III, Berry Gordy, Jermaine & Marlon Jackson, Queen Latifah, Kobe Bryant, Magic Johnson, & Smokie Robinson. And let’s not forget Paris Jackson’s words that made the billions that tuned in for the memorial break down and cry. (For those who didn’t cry, DO YOU HAVE A HEART?!)
Rest in Peace Michael, you will be remembered for your brilliance.
As I have posted before, Michael Jackson influenced many artists including the KPopers. Bi (Rain) was one of them. It was however unfortunate for him as he learned the King of Pop died on his birthday, June 25th. Michael inspired many to be all they can be and here are their tributes from over the years:
1TYM
They said Heal The World
2NE1:
They’re singing Umbrella by Rihanna but if you see closely they’re wearing a picutre of Michael on their clothing. This was shortly after the news of Michael’s death.
CL gives a shout out
Alien Ant Farm
Remake of Smooth Criminal
Bi (Rain)
It’s around 2:04, Billie Jean
Brian Joo (Fly To The Sky)
Billie Jean is really popular in Korea…

His Comeback Special on SBS Inkigayo:

They’re amazing performances because he did the same 45 degree lean MJ did in Smooth Criminal
Jun Jin (Shinhwa)
He just loves Dangerous
Junsu (2PM)
You are Not Alone
Madonna
There was a rumor she was suppose to guest star at Michael’s Last Concert.
Se7en
Se7en’s stage of Billie Jean, Smooth Criminal, & Dangerous (The Best I’ve seen, he did Michael Justice)
SHINee
Intro is a little tribute to Michael
It was their 80’s Icon Tribute. MJ starts at 1:10.
Shinhwa
Note this one is a parody-ish of Billie Jean & Heal The World, nothing too insulting. Also it’s Eric & Jun Jin who were dancing.
Min Woo & Jun Jin dance to Billie Jean
Another Min Woo & Jun Jin dance off of Billie Jean & Thriller
Super Junior

*Hankyung does the moonwalk*
*Ryeowook performs Michael Jackson’s signature moves*

fans: Siwon! Siwon!
Zhou Mi: *guess words* smelt a fart?
