Thad of ExclusiveAccess.net was there to capture the celebration of life.
We found many people paying homage to Michael Jackson in honor of his birthday.

Flo Rida explained he was in a festive mood due in part to the release of his latest single “Good Feeling” which was released on Michael Jackson’s birthday and debut on top 100. We caught up with Flo Rida in the studio working on his Only One Rider Part II album. Source

Beyonce opens four night stand in NYC with controversy
Cabaret singer Beyonce’s four night stand at New York’s Roseland Ballroom sold out in 22 seconds — thanks in large part to ticket scalpers.
Bey opened her 4 night stand last night wearing a shimmering gold dress designed by her mother Tina Knowles, and shoes by Stuart Weitzman.
Fans, rather, Stans lined up for hours before the show even though they already had tickets in hand. The delirious Stans packed the 2,500 capacity ballroom to hear Bey belt out lesser known tracks from her ’4′ album.
The concerts were described by one industry insider as “brilliant album listening parties organized for the fans,” which she hopes will spark slumping sales of ’4′.
But Beyonce’s opening night didn’t jump off without some controversy.
Jackson Family Donation Event For Children’s Hospital Los Angeles
Michael Jackson is rolling over in his grave. His 3 children who all led sheltered lives until his untimely death in 2009 are walking red carpets and being exploited all in the name of charity. Michael’s mother, Katherine, his sister, La Toya Jackson, and his children, Paris Jackson, Prince Jackson and Blanket Jackson, attended the Jackson Family Art Donation Event at Children’s Hospital in Los Angeles yesterday (August 8, 2011).
Paris Jackson, 13, has the most gorgeous blue eyes. I see modeling in her future. By the way, her Twitter page is @pariisjaxn, and she is a trip.
Michael Jackson’s Son, Prince, Has a Girlfriend
Michael Jackson’s eldest son Prince Michael has a girlfriend who sort of resembles a younger Cassie with hair. Her name is Niki Berger and she seems smitten with the handsome 14-year-old. Awww, isn’t young love sweet?
Aaron Carter: ‘Michael Jackson plied me with cocaine and wine’
He didn’t say it in those exact words, but former child star Aaron Carter finally admitted that pop icon Michael Jackson tried to get him high and drunk so he could have his way with him. At the time, Carter, the younger brother of Backstreet Boy Nick Carter, was 15 and riding a wave of success as a teen pop star.
I never talked about it. This is the first time. I do…I miss Michael. I have spent such incredible times with him. I did things with him that nobody else did. But I was also troubled about what he did to me. Yes, he gave me wine. I mean, I could have refused, but I was 15. He gave me cocaine. I felt weird about that and other stuff. We spoke afterwards, hours and hours, on the phone. I admired Michael, but his behavior bothered me a lot. Then my mother called the police.
I believe him. Rumors swirled for years about Jackson’s interest in the adolescent Carter. But Carter consistently denied the rumors. Carter, now 23, fit the profile of the young, white tenderoni’s that Jackson was attracted to. Jackson even dyed his eldest son’s hair to make him look more like Carter.

Judge to Jermaine Jackson: “Pay your child support deadbeat”
Jermaine Jackson is often photographed on vacation with his current wife Halima Rashid in Dubai or some other far flung exotic destination. He lives in a posh mansion in San Fernando Valley with his wife — and they own several luxury vehicles — yet he can’t afford to pay his child support bills because he claims he’s broke.
According to the Daily Mail, Jackson, 56, was back in a California courtroom yesterday to explain why he’s behind on $100,000 in child support for his two sons with ex-wife Alejandra Jackson.
The judge lowered his past due payments slightly and ordered Jackson to pay $80,000 in past due child support for his sons Jaafar and Jermajesty Jackson.
Alejandra Jackson (pictured above) is just as sorry as her baby daddy. She refuses to leave the Jackson compound in Encino, California where the Jackson 5 grew up after leaving Gary, Indiana in the 70s.
Jackson, who converted to Islam in 1989, complains that he shouldn’t have to pay child support because Alejandra has lived at his family’s Hayvenhurst estate for 20 years without paying a single bill.
But Katherine Jackson, 81, who has custody of the late Michael Jackson’s 3 kids, wants Alejandra gone. Katherine took Paris, Prince Michael and Blanket, and moved out while the mansion was under renovations. But Alejandra stayed put with her four sons — two with Jermaine and two with his younger brother Randy — despite the fact that the Estate’s attorney Howard Weitzman changed the locks and removed the food from the home.
Jermaine’s California driver’s license was recently revoked, but it will be reinstated if he makes a minimum payment of $5,000 on April 4. But Jackson claims he is destitute and can’t afford to pay a penny even though he earned hundreds of thousands of dollars appearing in two reality TV shows.
Meanwhile, Michael Jackson’s beautiful children are growing up quickly in front of our eyes! The paparazzi spotted Paris, 12, and 9-year-old Prince Michael II, aka Blanket, on a shopping excursion to a toy store with their auntie LaToya Jackson in Beverly Hills yesterday. Cute!
