Michael Jackson Tribute CANCELLED

Rest in Peace, Michael Jackson (August 29, 1958 – June 25, 2009)

Today in Rome there was supposed to be a Michael Jackson Tribute Concert at the Olympic Stadium but because of poor ticket sales, they had to cancel it. The lineup included famous musician artists such as Akon, Dionne Warwick, Joss stone, Missy Elliott, and Tito Jackson. Ticket masters were shocked by low sales because apparently Italians were completely obsessed with the film "This is It" and they thought that a tribute concert for the late MJ would easily sell out the stadium. We were going to buy our tickets for the concert on the day it was cancelled. Go figure.

Italians sure do love Michael, though. Here's some MJ I've seen while I've been here in Rome:
What's your favorite MJ song? You don't have to be a huge fan but come on, admit that you have a favorite!

How can you NOT want to dance when you hear..."Hey pretty baby with the high heels on!"
