Michael Jackson Last Rehearsal Video

AEG Live released a short one minute clip of Michael Jackson's last rehearsal for his "This Is It" concert, which is supposed to run on July 13 in London's O2 Arena. In this video taken from Staples Center, you can see Michael Jackson performing "They Don't Really Care About Us". It appears that he's a bit slower than he was ten or twenty years ago, but still Michael Jackson is in his element with no semblance of debilitation from any sickness. This actual rehearsal was two days before Michael Jackson died.

Some people think that he's lip-synching in this number, but it appears that he's really using his voice in this one. Incidentally, Michael Jackson will be back on Staples Center on July 7 for his public viewing and tickets to this will cost $25. Watch Michael Jackson last rehearsal video below:

Michael Jackson Death Photo Worth $500,000!

OK! Weekly reportedly shelled out $500,000 to put the Michael Jackson death photo on its cover. As other leading magazines feature Michael Jackson photos in his prime, OK Weekly stood as a tabloid as it is supposed to be by showing the King of Pop in the last minutes of his life. In PDN Online, a source confirmed that the "British parent Northern & Shell paid the equivalent of roughly U.S. $500,000 for exclusive magazine rights to the photo in the US and UK".

OK! Weekly is banking on the huge sales for this issue to counteract some financial losses that their publication is suffering from early this year. OK! editorial director Sarah Ivers explained that the picture "captures the surprise and the upset and the moment of this breaking news story". They expect the cover to "provoke" readers into celebrating the man Michael Jackson was and "expose that he was an eccentric character who lived a very controversial life". We just hope his family and friends would not go up in arms for this controversially grim cover photo.

If I were a fan of MJ who’s lucky enough to have tickets, I wouldn't exchange it for anything because time will come these tickets will be high-valued collector's items. The ticket itself was designed by Michael Jackson himself and was specifically printed using "lenticular process" that made those tickets have a "3D look". All tickets can be refunded until August 14. For more info about the Michael Jackson Ticket refund news, you can read it in Variety.

Katherine Jackson - Michael Jackson's Mom Gets Custody of His Children

A Supreme Court judge finally approved Katherine Jackson, Michael Jackson's mom, as the legal guardian who will take custody of his three children Prince Michael (12 years old), Paris Michael Katherine Jackson (11 years old) and Prince Michael II (7 years old). How old is Katherine Jackson? She's 79 years old and now she's filing an appeal to have legal control over the pop icon's real estate in order to protect his legacy.

Albeit a "temporary" guardianship was granted, Katherine Jackson's intention "to marshal assets of the decedent for the exclusive use of the decedent's three children — her grandchildren — after payment of debts and expenses of administration" is still yet to be studied in scheduled hearings between July 6 and August 3. By then, Superior Court Judge Mitchell Beckloff might come to a decision too to grant MJ's mom the permanent custody. The court granted Mrs. Jackson the custody for the reason that the children "have a long established relationship with paternal grandmother and are comfortable in her care." Michael Jackson's father Joe will only be supporting Mrs. Jackson to administer the estate left by the King of Pop.
