One month ago some fans were flabbergasted by Billboard's attempt to resurrect The King of Pop-even accusing The Estate of hiring an impersonator to fill in the blanks on his dance moves. Although I felt the performance was otherwise spectacular, I believe there's some merit to the madness.
First of, his dance moves seem a bit clumsy and slow. Secondly, if you look real close, his mouth moves sloppily. Almost as if their motion-picture(CGI) wasn't synced properly. Thirdly(though I don't think this could be helped), Michael did not seem to connect with his audience as he normally does.
Personally, the original version would have done much better on the show. Either that or the original Xscape. Anyhow this dilemma is nowhere near the noise of the Casio fiasko! In honor of the 5th anniversary to Jackson's death, I implore you to keep Michaeling!

Bad's 25th Anniversary Makeover!
The Michael Jackson Estate in corroboration with Sony and Pepsi-co will embark on a mission to both promote and release The 25th Anniversary edition to Bad! The deal includes 16 oz. Pepsi cans and free downloads of remixes from the album.
But most importantly, Bad 25 will come as a 3-CD box set. Which will have all the songs you've come to love plus an album full of unreleased gems, a few remixes, and a full live audio CD! In addition, a DVD containing the full unedited 1988 Wembsley Stadium concert will also be included in the package! Two booklets with never-before seen photos of Mr. Jackson in his studio in Havenhurst will come with the territory!
It appears that Sony is attempting to redeem itself(which is a good thing) from their questionable attempt at giving us Michael. An album riddles with controversy from it's beginning. So far I've heard this anniversary edition will focus more on outtakes but will still contain a couple of reinterpretations by the trio Skrillex, Diplo and A-Trak. Quite unlike Thriller 25. Which almost exclusively featured mixes from Akon, West, and a few others.
Bad 25 will hit the shelves on September 18th. Just in time to ring in the Autumn season! I'll keep you posted on anything new. This has been an MJ news 411 update!

Michael Jackson Death Anniversary
It has now been two full years since that dreaded date. When Headlines all across the globe cried in unison "The King of Pop is no more". Right then and there, a part of us died along with him.
It all started with breaking news. "Michael Jackson has been rushed to the hospital". Hoping to be just another prank, we learn it's the real deal. Furthermore, a reported comes on later affirming that he's slipped into a coma.
At that moment I was in denial. I mean, how could someone past the medical exams with flying colors suddenly pass into a perpetual dream? But then the cold naked truth was leaked! "We interrupt this broadcast to announce that Michael Jackson has passed away".
All our prayers, wishes, and longings were in vain. Michael had been dead all along! Many there were who literally burst into tears. Like John Lennon and Elvis Presley, we've lost another one of a kind legend. There won't be another like him. That's for sure!
Here's a 15 minute short documentary below titles "Never Can Say Goodbye"...
