Paris wanted to say how great her dad was. I don't think it was planned. I think they let her decide. It looked like they asked her if she wanted to speak and she did. Michael is proud of her.

Mamie, that's twice you've mentioned how impressed you are with Al Sharpton and how goood he's looking these days. Does this mean you're moving on, and I can now have full dibs on JBJ?

It was my impression that Michael was relaxing a bit on his children's appearances in public. Anyway, what is most important now is what will help Paris feel better and I think this probably helped her. She had something that she very badly wanted to say and she got to say it and express her feelings about her Dad. That is a good thing.

I was surprised that Diana Ross was a no-show. I know she wrote a note that was read out, but I still thought it odd that she didn't attend, especially when he named her in his will as caretaker to his children.

I thought Jennifer Hudson singing 'Will You be There' was great. It was good to see her.

I heard about this on the radio on the way home. Is it Michael's ghost? (I know it's not...but I did get the shivers)

I think some are asking who the lead singer was for 'We Are the World' at the memorial service today. She was very good and I personally did not recognize her.

Jimmer, I agree 100%. Sometimes, it's not about honoring the dead but helping the living go on living.

Yes, that was me about the singer today for We are the World. I could name you everyone who sang in the video! LOL

Was it Siedah Garrett? I know she wrote some songs with Michael (Man in the Mirror, for one) and that she wanted to perform today.

Today's singer is named Judith Hill. She was to be one of the singers in Jackson's "This Is It" series of shows in London. All the backing musicians & singers on the stage today were from his assembled touring company.

Thanks, Bonza. At one point, I wondered if they were his back up singers for this upcoming tour.

Oh, and the dancers today also - from the tour. At some point today I read or heard that some numbers were created for the tour and performed as created today. Possibly the Jennifer Hudson number, and for sure the closing two numbers.

My brother sent me a text asking if I knew who the girl was that sang at the end. Apparently everyone is talking about her - she was that good!

Right, also have to mention - Siedah Garrett singing "Man In The Mirror" - really incredible! She's a heck of a singer and songwriter!

Yep. And now, perhaps a star is born.

"... When the all-star Michael Jackson memorial ceremony in Los Angeles came to an end today, millions of fans watching the event became curious about the woman who sang lead on Jackson’s “Heal the World.” The mystery singer was Judith Hill, a Pasadena, California-based vocalist who was recruited to be one of the backup singers for Jackson’s This Is It! concerts at London’s O2 Arena. ..."

It was even better than I imagined. You could hear a pin drop at my work, almost everyone had the streaming video on. We arent supposed to use net at work but all of us supervisors and managers forgot that rule today :-)
