Footage From Michael Jackson’s Final Rehearsal

Sandra Rose July 2, 2009

About 1 minute of footage from MiJac’s final rehearsal at the Staples Center the night before he died of a heart attack at age 50. The footage was released by AEG Live, the company that booked Jackson for 50 concerts at the 02 Arena in London. Despite taking out insurance policies on Jackson, AEG plans to return $85 million to ticket holders. AEG will most likely sell all the footage from the final rehearsal to the highest bidder just to break halfway even.

I think it was 2 days before and I will be one of the first people to buy this video.

& if they took out insurance on him I’m sure that required a physical. So wouldn’t that have showned if he was abusing drugs? Or do you think these people took a chance with a man who had 48K worth of drugs in his system?
iscream

he killed that!!!!!! & is he singing live? The greatest!!!!

Totally agree iscream. As soon as this becomes available I’m buying a couple of copies as gifts and for my home!

He looked great and he wasn’t even going at full capacity. I would have given almost anything to see this man perform live!

It’s ok Sandra. I wish most of them on the BET awards chose to lip sync. Most were out of breath trying to sing and dance.
If he was lip syncing I wonder if he re recorded the song?

So, they would clear him and risk losing their money? MJ the king or not money is always the bottom line.

I agree with you this drug thing does have me going. Because that’s all I see on CNN. The only positive thing they have said is that he was a great father. Rewind a few years ago they were saying he wanted to kill his kid. He had such a big heart and gave all he could to the world. Why can’t they talk about that?

Maybe it’ll change. I see them interviewing Jermaine so maybe it’ll change.
Daisy

Yes money is the bottom line and that’s why he was cleared that concert sold out n and hour lol I will be watching larry king as well tonight

OMG I just saw that footage and I got chills!!!

Im gettin teary eyed. Why did he have to die? Oh Michael, you were unbelievable. I wouldve paid top notch dollar for this man.

So damn what he was lip synching. Who sings live at a rehearsal? So much for those lies about him not being able to perform well. Even at half tilt he was KILLING IT! Take that haters

Daisy I meant if he had a 48k a month drug problem why would they insure him with the risk he wouldn’t make it through the first 10 then 50 (they added 40 more.) shows?

I’m going to have to stop with my stan-ing. People are going to have their views and I’ll have mine. Same like when he was alive.

Now that he is gone, wouldn’t the insurance kick in to cover their lost?

Isc I feel you. I feel the same way but just don’t feel like wasting my energy on some of the things said.
Daisy

@Ice I feel your pain and see your point of view I never said otherwise. I just choose not to let it get under my skin because I knew this was coming. The drug story makes for great news and you know they are not going to have it any other way. I do not know if MJ was addicted to pain pills or any other meds but I would not be surprised if he were. Time will tell and like I keep telling you and everybody else he is still an ICON, LEGEND and KING of POP!

~~~~~~~~~
The term “insurance” , is for/in the event that something sudden or accidental happens. Think of your car or home/renters/life insurance. Sudden or accidential event. Mike went throug a 4 hour exam. He was deemed fit to go on tour. No one would have bet their money if he was not able to keep up his end of the bagain. In the event that something happens “Insurance” is just that, insurance. ( I wonder if his insurance policy to tour would cover all the costs of what happened. He was guaranteed $1 mill per show) Lindsey Lohan was found not insurable to many film makers because of her partying ways. It did not mean that she does not have talent. Only that most did not want to hire her because she was an insurable risk that most did not want to take the chance on losing.
