R.I. P. MJ

r.i.p to MICHAEL!
Its back in Gods hands

I wanna be in the TOP ten for this because this is a VERY special post…MJ you have inspired NATIONS and you still manage to sell out arena’s even in death! You are just that performer to be….i thank you for giving me the years of GREAT music and even though i was born kind of late…90’s Baby…I’m glad i was still around to see you work some of your magic on stage…there will NEVER be another and til this day i cry because I cant wrap my mind around the fact that Michael Jackson, the King of Music, is gone. It’s like seeing Superman getting shot by a speeding bullet….your music will always play in my mind and forever more in my heart and ill always “remember the times when i fell in love with your music” lol. Hope God and the angels above are watching you and keeping you tight…you can now rest your crown and rest in peace! love you….

-The ONLY trendsetter….

Rest In Peace…your music will live on forever

RIP MJ….so sad

Michael you’ll be missed by so many people and I know you are up there dancing for the Lord with James Brown.

Rest In Peace!

RIP MJ. I hope you’re in a better place. Only God knows a man’s heart <3

Michael Jackson was my first love in a musical sense. His gift will be treasured for many many years to come. I love you and we miss you. R.I.P.

A Fan All My Life

You was not only an inspiration for all people and entertainers itself but he was an icon.Michael Jackson was and is my greatest inspiration for me being an musician. He will truly be missed. And my condolences go out to the Jackson family and his kids and he is where he belong… I LOVE YOU! R.I.P. The King of Pop MJ Quisha from Dallas,TX

I’ll never forget you, Michael. In my heart, you are family.♥

Michael Jackson was truly the greatest. His talent and teachings will continue to live on. R.I.P!

I guess it’s all seeming real to me now. It’s just now registering that the King of Pop is actually gone. I couldn’t imagine being a member of the Jackson family right, it would be soo hard for me to take. But I will continue to pray for their strength, and that God will be with them through their time of bereavement.

R.I.P. Michael….may you rest in peace. I love you!

Rest In Peace Michael…

Michael was an irreplaceable part of music, and his work is timeless. I know his music will continue to be the fire under the music industry for years to come. Nobody could do it like Mike! RIP, you will be missed in body but your spirit will live forever!

Wow I still cant believe he is gone!! Michael your memory will live through your music and philanthropy. I grew up listening to and following your music for almost 29yrs and it will never be forgotten. I pray that you are with Our Lord and Savior and that he will keep you for an eternity. RIP

This is all so surreal to me!
I can’t believe MJ is gone. My prayers go out to Prince Michael, Paris & Blanket, Mrs. Jackson, Janet and the whole Jackson clan.
So sad. RIP MJ true legend King of Pop!!!

R.I.P. MJ we love you

PEOPLE LIKE BILL O’REILY AND PETE KING ARE WORKING OVER TIME TRYING TO TARNISH YOUR NAME BUT THE FANS HAVE SPOKEN! YOU HAVE FANS COMING FROM TOKYO, MOSCOW, ENGLAND, AUSTRALIA, GHANA ALL OVER THE WORLD TO BE A PART OF YOUR MEMORIAL SERVICE. I’M SUPER HAPPY THAT THE FAMILY DECIDED TO BRING YOUR CASKET TO THE PUBLIC MEMORIAL. THAT WAS SO GENEROUS OF THEM TO ALLOW US THE FANS TO SAY OUR GOODBYES AND HAVE CLOSURE EVEN WHILE THEY ARE MOURNING. I WILL ALWAYS APPRECIATE THEM FOR THAT DECISION. YOU ALREADY KNOW I PLAY YOUR MUSIC ON A REGULAR BASIS. THAT WILL NOT CHANGE. I’M GLAD YOUR ALBUMS ARE #1 ON THE CHARTS AGAIN TOO. I GREW UP WITH YOU. YOU’VE BEEN A PART OF MY LIFE SINCE CHILDHOOD. NO ONE WILL EVER DO IT LIKE YOU MICHAEL. I LOVE YOU. R.I.P.

Well, today is the day that they lay you to rest. I am very saddened by this and I would like to pay my respects to the Jackson Family. There will never be a great like Michael. This generation will never know what it is really like to be an icon like you, may you rest in peace!!!!

R.I.P Michael! You are and forever will be the King of Pop! We luv you Michael!!!

i done started up cryin again!!! it just seems surreal…..this is definitely the end of an era….he was the soundtrack to my childhood

let us all keep the jackson family in our prayers

R.I.P. MJ I WILL ALWAYS LOVE U!!

Thank you Michael for the gift of wonderful music! I discovered my love of music through your work. I got into the business because of you. I am a lifelong fan. We will continue to rock your music forever. R.I.P. MJ 1958-forever….

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOH…HEE HEE HEE…SHAMMMONE (DAAH!)

“MAKE THAT CHANGE!”

R.I.P.

MJJ

Michael Jackson is a Icon, Legend, and now an Angel.

May god take you under his wings and sit you at his right hand.

You are the greatest entertainer in the history of mankind!

I was honored to be alive during your lifetime. Altough I am much younger than you are. Your work made a profound impact on the music industry and my life.

Rest in Peace !

I am very somber today as we celebrate the homecoming of Michael Joseph Jackson. May he rest in peace and peace be given to his family at this time. His music will live in our minds forever.

I so Wish I was there to sign my name on there and leave Michael a message and see him for the last tim,. BUt i will just leave him my message here:

Michael,

You are very missed, you will always be remembered, you inspired lots of people around the world and most important you were the King Of Music, great Music. Thank you for your music I used to dance to it since i was five and my parents loved you as teens.. I know you are gone to a better place. There will never be anyone like you again… I love you Mike. R.I.P
……….Diana

Michael you are the greatest of all time! Your song Man In The Mirror inspired me to create my charity organization to give back the way you did. People may only remember you for the tabloid headlines but I will remember you for your generosity and love for all people. You are so special to me. Thank you for all you did and all you gave. You touched so many lives in ways you may not even be aware of.

I’m not going to be phony and pretend that I never laughed at a joke about Michael Jackson, or deny that I didn’t crack a few myself.

He is one of those people that I took for granted, I never expected him to pass away. For some odd reason I thought I’d never have to witness his death…I never imagined. But in his passing, I truly realize how talented he is. I see vividly how he inspired artist, and even myself. I’ll continue to dance to his music, and I only wish he could see the out pouring of love and respect.

R.I.P MICHAEL. YOU WILL ALWAYS BE THE KING. I’M LIFTING YOU AND YOUR FAMILY UP IN PRAYER.

CO-SIGN BRWNCRAYOLA

I DIDN’T AGREE WITH EVERYTHING MICHAEL DID OR SAID. HE MADE ME YELL AT THE T.V. IN FRUSTRATION WITH SOME OF HIS COMMENTS AND ANTICS AT TIMES.
BUT…….
HIS TALENT IS UNDENIABLE AND NO ONE WILL EVER TAKE HIS CROWN AWAY.

my first idol will be missed!! rip mike!!

R.I.P. Michael

even though i couldnt make it to the memorial service i am paying my respects here in tampa fl…regardless of what anybody says about you you were and always will be the greatest entertainer of all time…i hope you truley rest in peace…much love and wish i got to see you in concert live!!

MY FAVORITE MICHAEL JACKSON SONGS ARE HUMAN NATURE, LADY IN MY LIFE, ROCK WITH YOU, DIRTY DIANA, YOU ARE NOT ALONE, BILLY JEAN, MAN IN THE MIRROR, SHE’S OUT OF MY LIFE, MAN I COULD GO ON AND ON. MICHAEL CHANGED MY LIFE! HIS DEATH HIT ME SO HARD. I DON’T KNOW HOW LONG IT WILL TAKE ME TO GET OVER THIS.

MIKE MY MOTORCYCLE CLUB AND SEVERAL OTHERS WILL RIDE IN YOUR HONOR TODAY. SEE YOU ON THE OTHER SIDE MJ.

Im watching on mtv..the fam just arrived. cant even imagine how they are trully coping with this lost compared to the fans and artists who’ve been influenced by this man’s genius. RIP MJ.

You will always be the best there ever was. My heart goes out to the children, his mother, sisters and brothers. MJ was the kind of artist that you could respect no matter what he did or said. He cared for the community as well as the the world. If I could have one wish for the artist of today. Try to be a trendsetter like Michael and let your music speak for you and your legacy. May God bless his family….MJ you will never be forgotten. We love you but God loved you best.

REST IN PEACE

UGH THIS REALLY SUCKS, I WILL NOW HAVE TO ACCEPT THAT HE IS GONE, BUT DEFINITLY NEVER FORGOTTEN

THIS IS GOING TO BE SUCH A SAD CEREMONY :-/

I have so much to say but have posted on other sites so I’ll just keep it simple and short. @TR3NDSETTER101 dido- even though I was born in 1977 so I’m a little older than you but I agree with your msg.

Michael, God has called you home as he will all of us at some point and time. He called my mother two years ago also at the tender age of 50. You don’t have to worry about the pain you felt physically and mentally, no more medications etc, you can rest now. Job well done! I know you are in a better place.

We all wish this untimely incident had not occurred we wish you were still here and miss you very much. No matter what OUR wants are, GOD wanted you more, he has called you home! Take your crown and walk through those golden gates. Tell my mother I said hello!

Love you Michael Jackson- the REAL king of pop!

R.I.P Michael. Forever will you be the King of Pop and thus, forever will you live here on Earth though your spirit now dwells in serenity with God. Through your music, videos, and the numerous artists to whom you were an inspiration, you are practically immortal. No one, regardless of how talented he or she is, will ever dream to, nor will he or she ever be able to, take your place. I love you!

Such a beautiful soul. So gentle and sweet and shy. I loved your smile. I loved your spirit. And of course I loved your music. I wish you could be here to see how much people really loved you. I hope you knew. I feel like deep down inside you knew you were loved. You will never be forgotten. Your legacy will live on. It’s hard to say goodbye so I will say see you later. Love always.

I look up to you so much and you’ve inspired me as a dancer but even more so by just being a wonderful person.You had the biggest heart filled with love and courage.I will never forget your amazing smile,your charismatic nature,all the iconic dance moves that I loved but most of all the music.
The music will never die,Michael you can never die!! I will miss you so much.May you have perfect peace and God bless your soul.
Thank you so much Michael for giving us all of you and showing us GREATNESS.You’re one of a kind(Beautiful)and shall remain the GREATEST ARTIST TO EVER LIVE IN THE WORLD!!!!!
I WILL ALWAYS LOVE YOU MICHAEL JACKSON!!!!!

You are an angel that will be missed! Thank you for sharing your gift. RIP Michael.

I’m tired of white people telling me how I felt about Michael and him changing his skin color. What most fail to relize is that the changes wasn’t about wanting to be wihite or black it was about self-loath, emptyness and not really knowing who he was a person.

I have never felt any sort of animosity towards him one way or another, and beyond love I felt/feel a great sense of sadness becasue of what his dad and the media did to him. His greatness will always be remembered and long after the media and white folks have gone on/away, we will always be in his corner providing any support needed.

I love and miss you very much Michael, may you rest in peace, condolences to your family.

May those responsible for your death be punished to the fullest extent of the law!

I am glad that his farwell is today. I will continue to miss him.

They brought his casket out…..I dont know if I will be able to keep my composure at work. I LOVE YOU MIKE!

R. I. P. Michael Jackson. No one can take away the impact you have had on music. You are the reason why there is a pop genre.Your legacy has touch generations of so many people including myself and it will live on forever. The media can try to disregard how powerful your influence all they want but deep down everyone knows the truth. You are very special and had a God given talent. Thank you so much for sharing to the world your gift. You may be gone, but you won’t be forgotten.

once they bought his casket out it was over for me

LONG LIVE THE KING.

I’M WATCHING IT LIVE. The opening w/ the choir was an excellent choice. I mean excellent!!!

Glad to see Mariah wore a suitable dress for the occassion. But the voice is gone. She’s no Minnie Rippleton though she strived to be. I’m not mad at her but thank God for the studio voice.

OMG look how Joe dressed his boys all in unison. I love the Jackson family. Talk about an untimely death, but when your work is done here the King will summons you home.

God Bless!

what the hell is up with mariah voice i cant believe this

yes yes yes!!
MARIAH FINALLY SINGS ”I’LL BE THERE”
and sings it well might i add (with trey)….RIP MJ!!

omg, i literally cried throughout that perfomance

i already knew mariah’s voice was gone but it’s nice that she came out and showed her support for michael.

r.i.p.

MIKE, OH MIKE. I REMEMBER U ON THE COVER OF EBONY AND HOW I LAUGHED AND THOUGHT HOW RANDOM AND AWKWARD IT WAS FOR ME. I EXPRESSED MY DEEP CONCERN FOR U, B/C I COULD REALLY SEE THE PAIN U WERE GOING THROUGH. IM FOREVER THANKFUL I HAD THAT CHERISHED MOMENT TO SHARE B/C I KNEW U WOULDNT ALWAYS BE HERE. YOU WILL ALWAYS BE THE BEST OF ALL TIME, B/C U WERENT SELFISH AND TOUCHED SO MANY LIVES, ESPECIALLY MINES. SO KING, MAY THE LIGHT U CARRIED FOREVER SHINE. GOODNIGHT…………………LOVE, CANDI GIRL

Ok twitter is officially down.

all hail the Queen Latifah! OMG she’s making me tear up. Dr. Angelou wrote a poem for MJJ wow that’s so Gr8. She is the gr8est!.

WE HAD HIM!!!!
WE HAD HIM!!!!
WE HAD HIM!!!!
WE HAD HIM!!!!

So beautiful, so beloved, so Maya. The Dr. has a way w/ words. Queen Latifah was the best deliverer for that message.

R.i.P. MJJ!

Mariah Carey had me wondering what the hell was going on.

wow they should have let Trey sing by himself

ok Mr. Richie - arguably the best song writer of the 70’s & 80’s. Cant wait to see what he does for the future.This may be his gr8est inspiration yet.

thank god for lionel richie his voice is the truth

Mr. Richie is tearing it up.

Even at this moment haters say such things about Mariah… I mean it was a decent performance since she has these nodules…

Lionel looks great still. Glad he did this song. As much as I love Mariah..she wasn’t that good doing I’ll Be There.

Mariah was fine…..she was kinda crying as well….great job….greaat job lionel too.

AT LEAST MARIAH WAS THERE BY THE WAY!!!!!!!!

so finally Mariah sings and some still have the nerve to complain about her performance
i’d like to see you do any better…this is not the time for tearing people down!
keep your hateful thoughts to yourself and enjoy the show!

OMG when they actually get ‘REAL’ singers they move your soul. you can feel these choirs. You feel it in your bones. MJJ cant wait to perform. We know that about him. He cant’ wait to grace the stage. This memorial is so suitable for him. His last concert but not the last we will hear of his music. God i still cant believe he’s gone.

Berry Gordy - the father of motown. MJJs surrogate father. Although Joe made it known that MJJ has only but 1 father. I love Joe Jackson. He raised a good family & a gr8 man. MJJ for those who dont know praised his father for the discipline he bestowed upon them - hardwork & dedication too. He said it was his father who told him never let your fans see you cry. MJJ said he carried the teachings of his father throughout his career. With his father’s teachings you grew to the become THE BEST ENTERTAINER EVER!!! I thank his father for that! MY condolesences to the Jackson family.

I love who’s loving you. Never know it was Smokey’s song. WOW!!! Betcha Gordy never told Smokey that

yes the WONDER has entered the building.

Only on the post I will not respond to some of the comments b/c it’s a memorial. Back on topic.

Get ‘em Stevie. OMG the old Motown is in the BUILDING!!!! B.E.T. take notes on how a tribute is done!

Okay I’m done for. Oh Stevie.

Ok stevie is singing & now I’m officially crying. His voice is too powerful for words. The soul combined w/ the message & delivery makes this performance tremendous. I love the oldies music. Damn my generation is so lost, no messages, no movement, no point in even listening to it.

OMG he’s gone guys……..officially. there will never be another.

I told myself if I watched this I wouldn’t cry.

Here I go breaking promises.

Peace to that man.

Greatest Entertainer of All Time

Stevie Wonder did me in with Never Dreamed You’d Leave In Summer.I couldn’t hold the tears back any longer.

Steveie is putting it down. Its so hard to even look at that coffin when they flash it. Wow man this is still unsurreal this is a memorial service.

RIGHT NOW B.E.T IS SHOWING SUNSET PARK.

PEOPLE WE NEED TO BOYCOTT B.E.T SUCH DISRESPECT!!!!

BOYCOTT B.E.T DONT WATCH ANOTHER PROGRAM. EVERYWHERE IN THE WORLD PEOPLE ARE WATCHING THE MEMORIAL. EVERY CHANNEL HAS STOPPED ALL PROGRAMS TO BROADCAST THE MEMORIAL EVERY CHANNEL EXCEPT…

BLACK ENTERTAINMENT TELEVISION.

BOYCOTT B.E.T!!! MAKE THEM RESPECT OUR ICONIC FIGURES!

angel - u cant block that last message, come on even CL is broadcasting the memorial. where is BET’s respect?!

Jennifer Hudson!Now that’s what I’m talking about!She is amazing.

Go ‘head J-Hud! She has such a beautiful and powerful voice.

I can’t hardly stand it. I miss Michael so much.

I just keep watching his interviews on TV over and over and realize what I took for granted. There will never be another entertainer remotely on his level and that is a major loss indeed.

The grief felt around the world is totally substantiated by the fact that he was an extraordinarily good person. We should be happy about his life and legacy, but it’s hard not to be sad…we are without our King.

Go Jennifer Hudson she looks great

gotta agree wid Jen n°72
Jennifer just gave me chills !!

R.I.P MJ
still can’t believe he’s really gone =(

JHud is trully glowing and sounds as beautiful as she is. Magic didnt even mention Joe in the family regards, wonder how he feels right now.

J HUDSON just killed it!!
the interlude was just depressing!! esp when he starts crying…omg, so sad!
this is one memorial i will NEVER forget….rip MJ

jeniffer was FLAT FLAT FLAT ….i was expecting her to just kill it.

when stevie started singing ,i started cryng,well sobbing really becuase the song is so true,becuase i never thought you`d leave in summer (i think thats the name)has been my song since hearing it in poetic justice,and besides of that its so true because when i think of micheal jackson,(him being so influential and being such an icon) i would have never thought hed leave now,this summer,so sudden and unexpected.

heres the link if u never heard it-i never dreamed youd leave in summer - Stevie Wonder

love you micheal R.I.P

i thought she would have sang a gospel song, still good vocal

#79: that girl is 8 months pregnant!
she was really good, considering her situation…
hold on, why the hell am i even replying you? keep your thoughts to yourself like i said before.
this aint the time to criticise people

Stevie Wonder “This is a day that I hoped I would never live to see”…then sings “I Never Dreamed You’d Leave In Summer”! Whoo lord I’m done! I can’t even take this. It’s too much for me!

TELL IT REV AL.!!! PREACH ON!!!

this is to the city of los angeles; why you are whinning about “who’s paying for all of the city services incurred for the home going for MICHAEL JACKSON. this man has paid more than his fair share of state and federal taxes. and might i say even in death he still continues to line the pockets of the state of california. w/ the sales of his music. that will live on way past our time. look at all of the people who have traveled to your state. money thats being made “RIGHT NOW” AS HE IS BEING CELEBRATED at the staple center. i have heard a lot of negative griping from city and public officals. and many more, my message to all of you is “you wish”……….. now w/ this said i will return to the coverage via internet on cnn. oh yes 1 more thing before i go. will someone in the JACKSON family launch a lawsuit against the congressman peter king for the slander and lies that he must prove after making them hurtful and mean statements he clearly deframed this man. now he must prove his allegations or pay the estate…… RIP MICHAEL

Awww look at his kids……they are holding up good. God bless them…

Thank you Al Sharpton for those powerful words. If anything I really hope this teaches us as a community to be more loving and supportive of each other instead of being so negative. I love that back drop pic of MJ in the blue jacket.

sing the word if u know the song. go john!

BET, YOU TAKING NOTES???? THIS IS A TRIBUTE TO A KING!!

OMG THANK YOU CL BLOGGERS FOR MAKING ME SMILE TODAY. LOL @ THESE COMMENTS! I COULDN’T MAKE IT THROUGH THIS DAY WITHOUT Y’ALL. FOR REAL! J.HUD LOOKS LIKE SHE IS READY TO POP! REV. AL SHARPTON PREACHED!!!! JOHN MAYER PLAYING HUMAN NATURE ON GUITAR. I LOVE IT! OMG THIS IS SUCH A GREAT TRIBUTE!!!! TAKE NOTES B.E.T. THIS IS HOW IT’S DONE! I’M LOVING THIS & CRYING AT THE SAME TIME!

love john mayer

Awww I love all of his brothers all dressed alike. Janet looks so lovely. Everytime they show the casket I feel like I’mm going to lose it. Omg Brooke Shields is gonna make me lose it!

John Mayer did an amazing job. Brooke is making me cry again.

Is Beyonce there?

emotional so emotional

Jermaine made me cry!!! Awww!!

girl are always crying, jeeze.

OMG Thank You Angel!!!

Brooke Shields made me cry a river. Then Jermaine sung his fave song. That was so beautiful. This is history happening now, we have lost an important part of our history.

MJJ was smarter than people thought, we as Black people know that there is no one who will care for our children like Grandparents. First Lady Michelle Obama brought her mother to the white house to care for her children and MJJ left his three children to be raised by his parents, yes his parents, not just Katherine b/c MJJ knew his father would raise them too - that’s for the naysayers.

So folks if you havent spoken to your grandparents in a while call them up and tell them u love them. I speak to my grandmother everyday several times a day!

There’s no greater love than a mothers love but arguably the next in line is the love a grandmother!

We’re all saddend about MJ & Farrah.
God bless them, their families, their fans and their surroundings.
Michael & Farrah…sweethearts, we love you. We will forever miss you
and you will always be remembered. R.I.P. to you both.
God bless us all. Take care everyone.

Im still in awe of all these amazzzing individuals paying tribute to this man. It just puts you in another realm or reality to be watching this memorial.

lol @ London Boy. Oh hush! lol!

@61 I thought the same thing. She started out so bad. But bless her heart because atleast she tried and thats all he would have wanted. Bless you MJ.

I love speaker Jackson Lee she is speaking like President Obama. I’m loving her right now!

PREACH ON SISTER LEE!! RESOLUTION 600 - MICHAEL JACKSON HUMANITARIAN & MUSIC ICON!!!! WHAT AN HONOR!!!

OMG USHER!!!!

RIP Micheal Jackson
I loooove him
he is to me
the king of music
forever
i wish this was a dream
but god needed him more than us

Usher’s gonna make me baaawwwllll

Sing it Usher!

MJJ wrote the music for his own farewell. that’s eery. these are his songs. he was before his time.

What did Usher sing? My online broadcast keep freezing up. :o(

This little boy can blow!

why are ppl saying that BET isn’t showing it? last time i was on the channel, i swore they were showing it. i checked almost every important channel to make sure most were showing it

and usher sang the song well but he shouldn’t have touched the casket like that. it seemed disrespectful to me

DAMN THAT LIL BOY CAN SANNNNNNG! SO MUCH SOUL!

Yes! Shaheen!!
that 12 year old boy just killed it
we Brits should be ashamed!!!
letting such a talent like that slip away….wow!

yeah that little boy has a pretty big voice

ok “we are the wolrd” did me in. couldn’t hold back

THAT’S HOW YOU SING HEAL THE WORLD. TAKE NOTES CIARA. LOL. OK OK.

I’m a grown man and Usher almost had me in tears. They celebrated his life well.

IS THAT MARLON? AWWWWWWW LOOK AT JANET!

umm why is letoya hat soo darn big? i mean she looks ridiculous lol im sorry lol that had is huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuge.

why did michael keep masks on these kids face they are so cute

I will greatly miss his music such a genius

Best line I ever heard–”Maybe now they will leave you alone”-Marlon Jackson

heal the woooooorldddd

Loved John Mayer, J-Hud, and Brooke’s message. Am I the only one who caught a shot of Paris(mike’s daughter) singing along to “We Are The World”… too cute!

i cried throughout this memorial
all the performers and people who made speeches just made me appreciate him more
MJ, i will NEVER EVER forget you..ever!
this is def a day i will forever remember.

RIP MICHEAL, word can’t express how much of a role model you are to me
his family’s speech didn’t help either…OMG, im extremely sad

Paris just broke my heart

damn i aint cry until now

Ok now Paris just made me cry…

We LOVE YOU MICHAEL!!!

the daughter had me in tears again

omg Paris :’(…

WOW I’m wondering if MJJ would have wanted the kids to be so visible in the public eye. It really wasnt until now that we have seen them in the public eye so much - unguarded.

The words from Marlon were very touching. MJJ was his Big Brother.

Long LIve the King!

Okay now, I’m sobbing!!! When Marlon started crying, I cried, but when Paris got up, that was all I could stand. Lord have mercy!!!!

OMG, I was too thru when Michael’s daughter broke down…R.I.P to The ‘King of Pop’, my condolences to the family

I didn’t start crying until Paris started speaking. So sad…

i cant do this .
i never cried sooooo much .
when i saw marlon, usher, brooke shields and his daughter crying, i never cried soo much in my life !
omgsh - why does this hurt so much? i feel like i’ve known michael all my life even though ive never met him! :(

God bless you michael jackson. <3

OMgoodness….. my heart just completely broke down when his daughter cried….RIP, best to the family

dang it, Paris did it for me

I’m not the most emotional person, but Michael’s daughter Paris finally made me realize that Michael Jackson was a HUMAN BEING. Rest in peace, Michael…

now BET that is how you pay tribute to the KING

not that crap you put on a week ago!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i swear people really need to stop supporting BET ..and this isnt hate..its jus a reality…BET doesnt reperesent black people the right way

Good job, Al Sharpton

Rest in peace Michael

Now london boy you can’t tell me you didn’t cry after Paris spoke about her father.

Amazing artist AND person. what a combination.
R.I.P. Michael Joseph Jackson
Paris is a strong girl.

I had managed not to cry through the whole service but when his daughter started crying, I lost it. I hate to see children cry and I know if people who never even met him could feel so attached to him through his music and humanitarianism, I couldn’t imagine what his children are going through. He always spoke of his children and how much he loved to be a father so my condolences definetely go out to his family but especially his children. Now, I’ve always had my doubts about whether they were his biological children or not but regardless of if he was their biological father, it doesn’t matter. He was a parent to them and they obviously loved him and miss him very much so my heart goes out to them.

PARIS?!
oh Lawd why?
i tried so hard to hold back the tears but they just kept coming…her speech had me sobbing uncontrollably

this was a beautiful service, im glad he finally gets the flawless tribute he deserved

def one of the saddest losses in history…RIP MIKE
there will never be anyone that can replace you..NO ONE…

Amazing Memorial.

I think Mariah was the only one who didn’t pull it off -

i cant even express how i am feeling but i know i cant feel to much because nothing i feel will be as great as what the Jackson family is feeling right now!

Now that’s how you give tribute to not only a great performer but a beautiful man…RIP Michael….

I loved the gorgeous ballads and this was not the place for chris brown or ciara to perform Thriller or some other uptempo song…

I’m so glad was able to mourn in the correct way..Thank you Jacksons and RIP Michael…Love you fovever!!!!

Paris ALMOST made me cry.
And that’s saying a lot seeing as I don’t cry except @ my own father’s funeral.
But I’m really glad they didn’t show the body to the public.
Those ppl in there wouldn’t be able to handle it.

Now that is a tribute MJ deserved…………..well done -)

P.S. take notes BET

I remember when the Thriller video came out I prayed to God that Michael Jackson did not get married until I had a chance. I remember crying to God because Iove him so much!! I tape the making of Thriller and I would watch it over and over again.
Rest In Peace and may God give your family strength during this time. It may be the Jackson’s time now but it will be yours another time. Fans continue to speak good will to keep the naysayers shut down! He was truly the greatest entertainer on Earth! There will never be another one.

We will always love you Michael.

They are playing the memorial on BET..
RIP MJ
Paris brought me to tears wow, it just made you realize how human he was was.

I lost it when his lil girl cried. It was a beautiful memorial overall though.

I think I’m in love with Usher all over again. When he walked down and touched that casket! Omg! He had me! Thank goodness I didn’t have to work today. They would’ve had to send me home!

This memorial service was absolutely beautiful! A wonderful tribute to the king! I wish that I could talk to Michael right now and let him know how much I love and appreciate him and the message he tried to convey all this time! We took you for granted and you were an angel among us. Only now all too late do we realize how much of a genius you were! God bless you Michael!

Paris made me so sad

R.I.P. Michael Jackson!

Usher and Paris did me in.

R.I.P. Michael Jackson, I love you.

I was crying before Paris, but when she spoke, that’s when I broke down.

I think everyone did Michael Jackson justice today.

I love you Michaellllllllllllllllllllllllllll!

R.I.P to the King of Pop….The Greatest Entertainer that ever lived.

Wow. That a beautiful memorial service, the RIGHT way to do it. Rev. Al Sharpton uplifted me, as well as brought tears to my eyes. That was one of the best memorials I’ve ever seen. His daughter speaking at the end broke me down. Poor baby and I can’t even begin to imagine what the family is going through. I never got to meet Michael and that was something I wanted to do before I left here but we will meet one day. See you on the other side. We love you Michael. Rest in Peace!

Beautiful Service. When his daughter spoke, it was so touching.

thank heavens they didn’t include some artists attempting to dance like him.
or TRYING to sing
all the acts were PERFECT!

J Hudson, now that is one strong lady. can’t begin to imagine how hard it must have been for her to perform at a memorial service..something she shouldn’t do just yet, considering what happened to her family.

THIS WAS AMAZING AND SO PROFESSIONALLY DONE.
AL SHARPTON AND THE CONGRESSWOMAN THAT SPOKE DID A GREAT JOB WITH THEIR SPEECHES! I APPLAUD THEM FOR THEIR POWERFUL WORDS. I HOPE THE IGNORANT PEOPLE GOT THE MESSAGE! THE PERFORMANCES WERE GREAT. LOL @ PEOPLE SAYING MARIAH’S VOICE IS GONE. AT LEAST SHE WAS THERE TO SHOW HER SUPPORT. SHE GETS MY RESPECT FOR SHOWING UP. (CAN’T SAY THE SAME FOR DIANA ROSS OR ELIZABETH TAYLOR. WHAT IS MORE IMPORTANT THAN ATTENDING SOMEONE’S MEMORIAL SERVICE?) NOTHING. I UNDERSTAND YOU’RE GRIEVING BUT IF HIS FAMILY CAN DO IT, SO CAN YOU. SHAME ON YOU BOTH FOR BEING SO SELFISH!

Was it just me or did it look like the brothers and Joe where trying to be the first seen on camera to give the speaker/performer a hug… smh what a joke!!!

rip Michael

and #194 you are out of line… that was truly a comment you could have kept to urself

That was beautiful. Rest in Peace Michael

some of the brothers. let me be fair

@194, I’m not a fan of internet beef but I’m gonna need for you to SHUT THE FUCK UP! Weren’t you the same idiot on a rihanna post claiming how great that talentless slut was and now you’re here talking down the G.O.A.T?!?! Ho go kill your dumb self with your bare hands!

Ugh can’t believe people these days!!

R.I.P KING!

PEOPLE PLEASE IGNORE COMMENTS LIKE THAT ONE UP THERE. LET’S CONTINUE TO HONOR MICHAEL. PEOPLE LIKE THIS WILL ALWAYS COME IN AND TRY TO RAIN ON OUR PARADE. THEY TRIED TO DO THE SAME THING TO MICHAEL. JUST KEEP IT MOVING EVERYONE. CONTINUE TO COMMENT ON THE ARTIST, THE MAN, AND THE MEMORIAL SERVICE.

My prayers goes out to the family of Michael Jackson. Let us remember God gives and he takes away for a reason. Eventhough his life was short in our eyes but, he accomplish so much in his short life. I remember as a child growing up In Liberia West Africa all of us knew who MJ was. He will be truly miss!!

Damn tht was such a touching ceremony, I didn’t expect to become so emotional. The world lost a great person.

simply beautiful

Now that Paris business had me ready to cry. This should show people that he was a real person…he wasn’t a molester and he didn’t hurt his kids or anyone elses. He was a good guy and I honestly believed that he was a kid at heart and just enjoyed helping other kids. Just think about what grown man would risk all the money and fame in the world just to ruin it by hurting children. I think that he was so devoted to helping children and people in general that he saw past the money and really looked at helping families and children (eventhough at times they took advantage of his celebrity). I think MJ wasn’t normal…but none of us are. We are all different and have our strange habits and behaviors. Its what makes us who we are and if our behaviors were broadcast for all to see we might get the same attention. At the end of the day there will only be one MJ.

LORD THE DEVIL IS BUSY TODAY!

I’M NOT EVEN GOING TO CUT A FOOL OUT OF RESPECT FOR MICHAEL. THE MAN ISN’T EVEN IN THE GROUND YET AND IGNORANT FOOLS ARE STARTING THIS MESS! GO OUTSIDE AND PLAY CHILDREN. NO ONE IS IN THE MOOD FOR IT RIGHT NOW.

I’m starting to believe that he is gone now, it’s just so hard to grasp. Memorial was beautiful, I cried thru the whole ceremony. When Paris started crying, omg, I couldn’t take anymore. Jennifer H. and Usher was awesome. I love you Michael, RIP.

172. YOU SAID IT !

and REV. AL SHARPTON killed it !
“There ain’t nothin’ strange about your daddy. It was strange what he had to deal with!” - Rev. Al Sharpton .

I’m getting annoyed with the disrespectful comments.

Look when your music and life has touched millions of people over a 38 year span your memorial service is just a bit bigger than everybody elses.

So for everyone that’s mad the MJ is clogging the media, they can simply check the online sources for other news. In the meantime suck it up…

BTW I cried when Paris spoke…

TO MY2SENSE

Its alright. Theyre showing MJ’s videos. But about the memorial…that was good and so right on. I could type out a lot of words but I rather not. Ill just leave this comment as it is. Oh Paris.

Well done!

R.I.P Mike!

R.I.P. Michael Jackson. We will never forget you!!!

that was an amazing memorial

and i didnt cry until paris started to speak

RIP MJ

LONG LIVE THE KING OF POP. R.I.P ♥

A CHILD SHALL LEAD US. Those children should stay right in the jackson family. Janet and Jermaine with moms help. Marlon hit the nail on the head. Now they can leave him alone. No matter what they say about him God has the final say in they will only be hurting his children at this point. Now that is the way you celebrate an ICON. BET was wrong. RIP MIKE.

when paris went to speak….oh i had to cry

Lorele stop talking on here and YOU CHANGE THE WORLD YOURSELF. Man in the mirror. I’m already doing it personally in my life. Changing myself stop arguing and just do it.

Just celebrate the man damn stop making debate.

the devil is at work already
how hard is it NOT TO COMMENT on a post you don’t like cause really it’s not a must people have to voice their senseless opinions
the 1st time, yea, that’s cool, but 5 times..damn!
some of yaw (esp that noisemaker) need serious help

I CAN NOT BELIEVE THAT IDIOTS ARE QUESTIONING IF HIS BODY WAS IN THE CASKET. SO WHAT. A OPEN CASKET WOULD BE CHAOTIC, PEOPLE WOULD BE TRYING TO GET CLOSE. AND ISN’T IT ABOUT CELEBRATING THE LIFE AND SPIRIT ‘AND NOT THE BODY’. GOD BLESS HIS CHILDREN AS THE MEDIA TRIES TO PUT THEM IN THE LIMELIGHT AND CREATE DISGUSTING RUMORS ABOUT THEIR FATHER. IT IS NOT THE TIME, I DON’T CARE HOW ICONIC HE WAS, PRIVACY IS DESERVED AT SOMETIME.

i knew i’d cry aaaaaaaall throughout the memorial…. and i did!!!…. ain’t no shame in my game… lol!!!….. brooke shields and usher did the best i think!!! and paris had me all out of whack!!! omg….and when shaheen performed my fav. song…. i was done for…. i criiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiieeeeeeeeeeeeedddddd criiiiiiiiiiiiiiiieeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeddddddddddddddd criiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiieeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeedddddddddddddddd!!!!… omg…. i was so done with that one!!! but yeah… usher’s performance was the clearly the best one!!!…. i look like a black marshmallow right now… lol…. my face is so puffy…. eyes suuuuuuuuper baggy……. lol….. i look a mess… but it’s not about me… it’s about mj….. I LOVE YOU MJ!!! XOXOXOXOXO REST IN PEACE MY LOVE!!! ALWAYS HAVE BEEN….ALWAYS WILL BE….THE GREATEST ENTERTAINER EVER LIVED!!! i said it all my life….. stuck by you through all of your trials and tribulations….. i was behind you 100%….. never doubted you….. never will!!! INNOCENT UNTIL PROVEN GUILTY!!! you’re the best mj…. you really are!!! i love you!!!

the devil’s at work already

Stevie and the Jackson brothers and his daughter Paris is what got me (Yeah I’m 32 years old and tears came down my face) I grew up off MJ’s music, like losing an cool uncle or close cousin ……..People gotta realize this man sacrifice his whole life to put smiles on peoples face…..We Appreciate you MJ….R.I.P

This loss is like 9/11 to me. After 9/11 everything changed, i believe everything is gonna change now. Michael your my inspiration and my hero, I can’t explain how much you mean to me….I love you Michael Jackson & now finally have your peace.

IT DOESN’T MATTER IF HIS BODY WAS IN THE CASKET OR NOT. HIS SPIRIT WAS IN THAT ROOM!

A SOLID GOLD CASKET COVERED IN ROSES. FIT FOR A KING!

the whole memorial was beatiful,i cried at least 5 times………………its still so sad=(R.I.P—K.O.P)

nobody will ever reach the heights mj did!!!…. this was a true star!! all these celebs thinking they’re IT….. they’re not!!! look how many people passed away and didn’t get a fraction of what mj has gotten in this sad time!!! THEY CLOSED DOWN THE FREEWAYS FOR THIS MAN!!!…. they only do that for the president!!!…. THEY SET UP A PERIMETER AROUND THE STAPLES CENTER SO NON TICKET HOLDERS COULDN’T GET THROUGH!!! no other star dead or alive has that power!!! BLACK IS BEAUTIFUL!!!

nobody will ever reach the heights mj did!!!…. this was a true star!! all these celebs thinking they’re IT….. they’re not!!! look how many people passed away and didn’t get a fraction of what mj has gotten in this sad time!!!

BLACK IS BEAUTIFUL!!! look how far we’ve come!!!… to be black in america right now is the greatest thing in world!!! no more back of the bus type mess…. THEY SHUT DOWN FREEWAYS….. geeeeeeeeeeeeeezzzzzus!!!!….. and i’m happy that people respected mj enough…and respected his family enough to stay home and not cause commotion downtown!!! they stayed home and watched from home….. i love it!!! that shows the level of respect we all have for michael……. we listened to authorities and kept our asses home to watch!!! we didn’t defy the law…….. we listened!!! let this have been some crazy ball game and people would have gone regardless to get a glimpse of whateva they possibly could…… but for michael…. we listened…..we respected the wishes of his family…well authorities…… GO MJ!!!

The memorial was really good. Watched the whole thing - didn’t move from my seat. I teared up a bit during the memorial but when Paris spoke - I reallyyyy started crying.

I agree with some people when they say how now that Michael’s dead everyone wants to act like they’ve always listened to Michael and how they love him etc. I was with my friend and my mom when I found out Michael died and my friend was acting like she had been listening to Michael all her life and saying how she loved him and stuff and she didn’t even listen to his music. I know people who made fun of Michael before he died and now they’re acting like they’re sad about it and saying that people should have left him alone.. I listened to Michael’s music before he died - my dad is a musician and he would play Michael Jackson songs on his guitar when I was younger and my sister and I would dance around and sing the words to the songs - we were both born in the 90’s but we still knew every Michael Jackson song and knew all the words. I still remember the first time I watched the Thriller music video. I’ve never watched the full video since - I was so scared I didn’t watch it again. Although I know now it wouldn’t scare me (as much) I still haven’t watched it from start to finish.

I loved all the speeches - especially Brooke Shields, Rev. Al Sharpton, and Magic Johnson.

Stevie was amazing. He really made me emotional. “I never dreamed you’d leave in summer…” Ohhhh…

I will always love you MJ, loved ones did a beautiful job of putting you to rest. You will always live in our hearts and your legacy will NEVER die…God Bless!

i am still so moved by that memorial even after it has ended..im on youtube reliving everything all over again

no shade tho..mariah sounded a MESS

everyone else did good

those kids neeed to stay with the jacksons..you can CLEARLY see the love they have for those kids especially janet–i really hope debbie rowe doesnt get custody

i was crying the throughout the whole thing. usher, michael’s brother marlon and paris made me lose it.
and just the coffin made it so real that it just hit home
we love u michael
‘maybe now, they will leave you alone’ - Marlon Jackson

@ Kyla
Ok fair enough but you have people of ALL ages on this site. Sweetheart some of us are in our 30’s and up so yeah we have been listening to MJ all of our lives. Everybody on here didn’t JUST start listening to him so let that go. I understand your point but you are preaching to the WRONG people. Some people did make fun of him but you can’t prove it was any of the same people that are now saying they love him so just take the comments for what they are. Even if it was the same people that doesn’t mean they can’t feel bad about the man dying. Some people do have SOME compassion.

It is so hard to believe that the legacy that is Michael Jackson has left this earth. It’s just sooo hard to bare. I cant even begin to imagine what his family, friends, and children are going through right now. What an amazing and tragic loss this is. I didnt really grow up with MJ’s music but I know he will be remembered in my heart and the whole world’s heart. He is definatly a legend in the making and always will be. You never really know what you have until you lose it. I hope that Michael’s life, love, song’s, dance moves, and just himself in general will live on forever. I also hope that his love for this earth and all the children and people will give us a chance to look at ourselves and realize we do need a change. In ourselves and the earth. So thank you Michael for being the man that you were and trying to show us that we are all the same. Hopefully your presents, songs and love will help us realize that. Rest In Peace Michael. I hope you made it safely to heaven and you will be greatly, greatly missed.

i dont understand why people that dont like MJ would take time oout of their day to come on a post where his true fans are trying to remember his legacy

its just totally disrespectful

its jus like someone showin up to your memorial or talkin bout someone who just died in your own family..you all just have no respect whatsoever regardless of your beliefs..THIS POST..is not the time or the place for that…

and it pisses me off even more cuz you’re online feelin real gangsta but i seriously doubt you would have been at one of those public viewing venues talkin this mess cuz you surely wuold have been carried out in a stretcher

OMG well said, biznesswoman (#256). I’m so tired of people singin that same ol’ song. Even Michael’s career had its peeks and valleys. All celebrities have slumps, but his overall career and contributions were legendary and unmatched. So what if we weren’t bumpin his music the week before he died, we still all grew up with him, have fond memories of his music and have every right to mourn him. And if you were born in the 90s, it’s understandable that you don’t really get that.

RIP Michael Jackson!!!!

This is gonna resonate with me for a while especially, Usher, Marlon and Paris bits. I never cried when I saw the breaking news, I never cried when they did endless tributes and flashbacks of his songs on MTV, VH1 etc, but this… is different. I can finally accept that he’s gone.
We ‘ve lost the ultimate icon but my heartfelt condolences go out to his beautiful kids who’ve lost their dad and his other fam who’ve lost a brother, a son, a nephew, a cousin etc.

I didn’t need to go out and buy his music again for it to b topping the music charts like it did last week or dust it from my mum and dad’s collection. His music had it’s own playlist and sat comfortably on my ipod with the Amy Winehouse, Leona Lewis, VV Brown, Lionel Ritchie, Dizzee Rascal, the Beatles etc cos it was good. Simples!

RIP MJ

IM GLAD THEY DIDN’T OPEN THE CASKET CUZ PPL DON’T RESPECT THEM KIDS OR MICHAEL FOR THAT MATTER. TMZ WOULDA HAD THE PICS IN A MATTER OF SECONDS. THAT’S NOT RIGHT SO IM GLAD THEY DIDN’T OPEN IT.

I HAD TO CRY WHEN HIS DAUGHTER SPOKE. THEY JUST LOST THEIR DADDY AND I KNOW THEY ARE HURTING. I HOPE TO GOD DEBBIE ROWE DOES NOT GET THEM KIDS. THEY SHOULD STAY WITH THE FAMILY BECAUSE THEY ALREADY KNOW AND LOVE THEM. I ACTUALLY THINK JANET SHOULD KEEP THE KIDS.

I just want to thank Gretta on Fox for what she had said after the Michael Jackson’s memorial service. Gretta made reference to Brook Sheilds speech where it was said that her and Michael’s relationship was an odd one, Gretta said that she is saying that reporters need not too judge, that they need to hold back off of what they say sometimes is what she essentially said. I think it was very big of her and took a real woman to say that!
And it is true from the moment we see behaviours out of the norm we automatically judge which is not very nice or right. I think we all need to put ourselves in other peoples shoes maybe the world would be a better place as Michael Jackson wanted as most of us want!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Each of us have different personalities, likes, dislikes, wants, needs, personal appearance and each of us as something geeky about us… Love others, respect others, especially u all reporters!!!!!!! We are not perfect instead of trashing people try to uplift them….And this does not only mean for the moment but always please please!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks Gretta

The memorial was beautiful, I cried just like everyother person did. The Jackson family have and will continue to be in my prayers.

Side Note: I just realized how much I love Al Sharpton lol

now it finally has sunk in,its so sad but we should all celebrate his life and cherish the music he gave us…he will always live on..he is thee greatest entertainer to walk this earth
r.i.p michael!
xxx

i cant believe my kids are gonna grow up without michael,its so strange to me (

Michael Jackson’s memorial service was fitting and wonderful!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

love you always

bless your family

love life, cherish friends and family, know that death can be short around the corner

The memorial service was so moving, emotional and touching, could’nt hold back the tears. Rev. Al Sharpton and Congress woman ( can’t think of her name), but they really gave Michael his accolades and totally refused to allow negativity to tarnish and diminish the astronomical accomplishments and contributions of this man’s life and his influence on the world, not just musically or the impact he had on civil rights and race relations, but his humanitarian efforts as well. Everyone who participated, was simply beautiful. Michael you are truly loved and will never be forgotten.

Michael, thought I would’ve had a chance to meet you one day but now that will never happen. I just want to say you are the greatest entertainer alive. I love your music and it will live in my heart. Love and Miss you Mike.

Now I wouldn’t b me if I didnt say, people at BET take note this is a real tribute and yes I know its a memorial for the greatest entainer in the world and the sigficance is different but this is how you say “THANK YOU”.

THANK YOU 2 THE JACKSON FAMILY FOR LETTING US SHARE YOUR LOST AND THE LIFE OF YOUR SON TODAY. MAY GOD BLESS AND KEEP YOUR FAMILY.

PRAISE THE KING OF KING JESUS….

NOT AN HUMAN BEING LIKE YOU SO CALLED KING OF POP

HE CANT SAVE YOU

HE HAD TALENT RIGHT BUT WORSHIP HIM LIKE SOME PEOPLE DO ITS JUST DISGUSTING

I WONDER IF GOD APPRECIATES PEOPLE WORSHIPPING THE CREATURE

BEING SAD FOR THE FAMILY N CHILDREN ITS OK
MAY GOD HEAL THEIR HEART AND SHOW THEM THE ONLY WAY JESUS BEFORE THEIR DEATH

Long live the king……but even the king has to bow down to the real KING of Kings (Christ Jesus)…………..I will always love MIKE.

Michael– Despite all the negative media press, you were loved and your fans out numbered your critics (haters) You’re music is timeless and you will continue to inspire this generation and future generations to come. Rest in Peace ‘King of Pop’ I will keep your children and family in my prayers…

*Wipes Tears*

You were THE GREATEST ENTERTAINER ALIVE!!!!! I miss you Michael. I will ALWAYS, ALWAYS, ALWAYS, ALWAYS LOVE YOU!!! BYE BYE FOR NOW BABY.
* Blows kisses to the sky*.

Al Sharpton was awesome today

. Berry Gordy said it best”MJ is more than the king of POP but the greatest entertainer this world has known.

i hope the send u to china and make u into a toy (which won’t be hard because your already plastic) so little boys can play with you

I love you MICHAEL, and everything I’ve been struggling 2 say, has already been “WELL SAID” by REVEREND AL SHARPTON. Thank u reverend Sharpton,
I couldn’ve said it better myself.

TO THE GREATEST ENTERTAINER OF ALL TIME;;;
MAY YOUR PRESCIOUS SOUL REST IN PARADISE,

LONG LIVE THE

Kind

Intelligent

Nurturing

Giving…………………………………….1958-2009

TO LINDA #213

I agree those kids should stay with the Jackson family…regardless of how Joe Jackson treated his own kids. I dont believe theyll go through that. But I honestly think Deborah Rowe does not deserve them.

No other words…THANK YOU MICHAEL!!

MJ you were the greatest entertainer ever lived!! Thank you for all the great music you have given to the whole world. You set the bars & you broke them. May u forever rest in peace its all over now you can finally rest. No more heartache, pain, & tribulations you have to endure. For God knows your soul. “Heroes are remembered, but Legends never die” For your soul is forever anchored in the Lord RIH Michael Joseph Jackson AKA THE KING

I cant get over how brilliant the memorial was I didnt think i could cry so much my eyes are still swollen everything about it was just on point thanks for everyone who performed even though i could not haver attended the memorial i couldnt have asked for a better send off from the artists who performed as for the Jackson family GOD BLESS YOU MAY MICHAEL ALWAYS BE IN YOUR HEARTS R.I.P. IN PEACE MICHAEL I LOVE YOU

The memorial was heartfelt, and wonderful. I was in tears the whole time. We lost one of the greatest giving, and loving entertainer in the world!

We love you Michael!

God bless you!

@246
who are you to tell us what we need to do and how we need to deal with michael’s death?
let us worship him as we want,that’s our business not yours!

The Memorial Service was nice and not over the top. The fans were very respectful. JHud did good but I was hoping she sung the last song on her CD, “There’s a place in heaven prepared for me,” thats not the name of it but thats the chorus, her voice is made for true gospel music. Lionel Richie actually brought tears to my eyes, gospel songs always do. Usher did a wonderful job and it was not disrespectful of him to touch the casket (to whomever said that earlier).

i still cant get over his death!!

i was crying throughout that whole service!!

especially wen Paris spoke, Jermaine sang, Brooke spoke, and when they were carrying the coffin.

tooooo emotional!!

R.I.P MICHAEL YOU WILL ALWAYS BE REMEMBERED AS THE KING OF POP.

I STILL CANT BELEVE THAT HE IS GONE RIP MJ

Boy I tell u, there’s always 1……….there’s always 1. Out of every fresh batch of apples, there’s always 1 JACKA** that just has 2 spew out some negative garbage,
and on the day of his memorial service at that (SMMFH)!!!!!!!!!!

To all of u MJ nay sayers, please stay the hell off of this post.
Knowbody gives a f**k about yall retarded a**. Ain’t knowbody trynna
hear what u have 2 say, nobody cares, but ur BITTER MISERABLE A**.
Go get a life, seriously……….seriously. Just like SHARPTON said………..
(misery loves company)……….boy I tell you.

Man, never really knew or appreciated MJ until he’s gone. Bless his family and may he finally get the well deserved rest he needs. RIP MJ.!!!
LUV

those kids look as if they adore the jackson siblings…especially janet….i hope they stay in the family

I miss you Michael and I love you. You have done great things for the pop culture and entertainment industry. You were somebody’s son, father, brother,uncle and love. At times you seemed to far away and so untouchable but yet you were so down to earth. I can’t imagine the type of life you lived, I can only imagine. I do know that when your time is up that you will leave this earth when God wants you to. He knew you were tired and had reached your peak. There was nothing else for you to accomplish. Well done my friend. RIP. I LOVE YOU MICHAEL

MJ you are an inspiration. Your music is everlasting. You will forever be in our hearts and never forgotten.

LONG LIVE THE KING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We love you Michael.

R.I.P MJ hope u in better place Nothen Gold Can Stay

I was holding it together until Paris spoke and then i just cried, it was just too sad

I LOVE U SOOO MUCH MICHAEL U ARE THE ULTIMATE MOST GENEROUS GIVING SPIRIT THAT I EVER SEEN. THE LORD GAVE U TO US FOR 50 YEARS AND YOU WILL FOREVER BE THE GREATEST ENTERTAINER MUSICIAN THAT EVER GRACED THIS EARTH……RIP MIKE WE WILL ALWAYS REMEMBER YOUR LEGACY…

GONE TO SOON. LOVE U MICHAEL

WILL SEE U ON THE OTHER SIDE

RIP MJ, you will truly be miss a whole lottttt. You will be remember forever to me.

SEE U ON THE OTHER SIDE MY FRIEND

SEE U ON THE OTHER SIDE MY FRIEND

Rest In Peace Michael, its hard to accept but God wanted his child to come home.

This was a true farewell. We will deeply miss Michael Jackson. Now we can say goodbye and look towards the future. Don’t worry Michael. You will never be forgotten.

thank you angel..and you know what im referring too.

just an emotional day im going through it over this..and two days before my birthday at that!

that was a beautiful memorial service.

Will look forward to seeing u on the other side my friend.

I watched it throughout - stayed put on the sofa - Even when they’re were viewing from Hall of liberty.

Teardrops were falling when Man In The Mirror came on - cried during Jermaine performance. We are the world.Mariah performance. She had emotion

Paris - my heart goes out to her - That speech for me was heartfelt

I loved Martin Luther King 111 speech - was inspring - So was Al Sharptons. Everything he said was exact.

Michael went to soon - But his musci will love on - He is different to any other artist past/future. Because with his music- He helped others. Such samaritan. Love you Michael God bless xxx

Thank God all that mess was deleted.

Agreed @ Jilana.

That’s most likely why I’m so annoyed and emotionless @ MJ’s death.

I feel like it’s disrespectful to all of a sudden love someone when they die even though you destroyed that person when they were alive.

I saw the clip of his daughter, Paris. Sad.

*The congresswoman’s name was Shelia Jackson Lee.*

why have you changed the background?

why?

Mariah is beautiful - but that pic aswell. Frivolous.

@ 281…I guess you’ve never heard of remorse? penitence? forgiveness?

I couldn’t care less what was said about Mike before, none of that matters anymore. What matters most is right here & now…MOST people are coming together to celebrate his life. Forget all the negative people. They’re nobody important anyway.

When I think of Michael Jackson what comes to mind is what a beautiful walker he was. In other words, despite all of the trials, tribulations, scandals, lies, and negativity people tried to put on him, HE NEVER GAVE UP. Like Al Sharpton said, “He DEALT with it”! Yes, he walked most beautifully while on this earth. RIP Michael Jackson…and I will always love you.

I’m so thankful I was able to watch it live and tape it.

I really LOVE Michael, he was my first love and I will LOVE him Forever. His Spirit, Class, And Charity will Live Forever. I will dedicate a tatoo in his honor and i will be forever changed from NOW ON!!!!

May God keep this Angel Close.

Margaret

This was actually a bit like his last concert. 2,5 billion people watched this on tv. It’s still hard to believe that he’s gone. R.I.P. MJ! Always in our hearts.

RIP MJ RIP to Tyson baby girl too

THIS SITUATION OF MICHAEL JACKSON HAS CHANGED ME AND MADE ME A BETTER PERSON, I THINK WE REALLY NEED TO TAKE CARE OF EACH OTHER INSTEAD OF MISTREATING EACH OTHER SO BAD WHILE ALIVE, WE NEED TO ACCEPT EACH OTHER UNIQUENESS AND STOP MAKING FUN OF EACH OTHER INSTEAD LETS SUPPORT EACH OTHER,LETS STOP GOING WITH THE HYPE AND BELIEVE IN THE TRUTH. WE HAVE TO UNDERSTAND THAT WHITE PEOPLE ARE ALWAYS GONNA TRY AND PUT US DOWN THEY DO THAT TO ALL SUCCESSFUL BLACK MAN. AND THATS WHY ANYTHING THAT HAS TO DO WITH SUCESSFULL BLACK PEOPLE IS MORE INTERESTING TO THEM THATS THE ONLY WAY FOR THEM TO DEFEAT US. THEY KNOW THAT WE ARE STRONG AND SOON WE WILL TAKE OVER THE WORLD.

IM EVEN SURPRISED THAT IM TALKING LIKE THIS IM NOT USUALLY LIKE THIS LOOSING THE KING HAS CHANGED MY LIFE FOREVER. FROM NOW ON I WILL SUPPORT ALL MY PEOPLE THAT ARE TRYING TO MAKE DIFFERENCE IN LIFE AND I WON’T JUDGE U CAUSE ONLY GOD KNOW THE TRUTH!!!

HIS ONLY SIN WAS THA HE WAS TOO & PURE AND INNOCENT IN HIS WORLD HE THOUGHT EVERYONE WAS LIKE HIM BUT HAD NO IDEA HOW EVIL THE WORLD IS.

THROUGH GOD THAT I BELIEVE WATCH WATS GONNA HAPPENED WHO EVER HAS LIED ABOUT MJ WILL COME IN FRONT ONE DAY AND CONFESS THE TRUTH ABOUT LIES WATCH GOD IS NOT SLEEPING!!!

XOXO

What a touching memorial service! I still have a froggy in my throat. MJ will be greatly missed. I definitely will be downloading the Jackson 5 albums on my ipod, his young voice was simply angelic.

This was really an emotional day watching this. My heart just hurts. I miss MJ so much already. It’s still so hard to believe he is gone. I can’t imagine what the family is feeling.

[...] you missed the full program, make sure to check out the CBS stream video we posted or CNN & YOUTUBE through out the upcoming hours. I’m pretty sure they will [...]

The Greatest here on earth, will be missed

I JUST CAN’T BELIEVE OPRAH DIDN’T SHOW UP I OFFICIALLY HATE HER NOW. SHE ONLY KISS WHITE PEOPLE ASS

I wish that I had the opportunity to meet you Michael. You were a wonderful musician and humanitarian, and you will be missed dearly. You will forever be known as the King.

That wasn’t a memorial service–that was truly a homegoing celebration like we do in the black church. The music, the expressions, the images and the ministry of love. Even though I’ve always loved MJ, I don’t think I really appreciated him while he was alive. I’m sure many felt like that, but that doesn’t mean we couldn’t unite in grieving for him yesterday and wishing we could have him back. The funeral yesterday was a moving tribute to a man who’s heart was too big for this world and it served as a reminder to all of us to show love and appreciation to the people in your life while you still have time.

micheal i will miss you may god bless you and keep you i feel like a part of me is gone .may god bless your family .you have taught this world so much just know your race was not in vain
Love you
Emma
