Madonna Plans Michael Jackson Tribute

LOS ANGELES — Madonna is paying tribute to Michael Jackson in the same arena where he was to stage his great comeback.

The superstar is preparing a special part of her concert Saturday at O2 arena. Madonna publicist Liz Rosenberg says she is going to unveil a special choreographed dance in honor of Jackson.

Michael Jackson was to perform his comeback concerts at O2 starting July 13. He died last week at 50. He had been rehearsing for those shows in his final days.

How wonderful taking the time to pay tribute to Michael...­.. when every day is a tribute to Madonna.

groucho:
What kind of racist remark is that? Jesse Jackson may not be perfect, but he has spent his life working for justice for Americans. He has done a lot of good.

Why yes Mr./Ms. Groucho !

Mr. Jesse Jackson has certainly been a pillar of moral virtue in this Country !

And he even has the moral directive to pay child support to the dozen or so Illegitimate children he has fathered !

We will all wait with tainted breath for you post detailing Mr. Jackson's many accomplishments ?

So Glady's, did you mean that as a tribute from one no talent to another ?

With all due respect Glady's, you appear to be a disgusting mess !

Madge: pay attention to ME! pay attention to ME! pay attention to ME!

[sexyrexy]

Germaine Greer said it best.. giving Madge a back slap.

[ClownPosse]

The "Cashin-In On Jackson " Tour ?

[macbabe]

he is worth SO MUCH MORE now that he is gone to A LOT of people, sad but true.

[sexyrexy]

absolutely!!! in death--MJJ redeems himself of all the rubbish leveled against him in LIFE.

another proof.. those were rubbish to start with.. irony..

[fumes]

madonna rules!

but can she moonwalk?

[sexyrexy]

no! but she bends over..(as shown on stage..)

[PresidentRobertBooth]

The bile being posted here against Madonna is staggering

[marignymitch]

And completely insufficient to the cause.

[sexyrexy]

all in good fun.. luv.. as they say in merry olde.. it's all a 'wind-up.. taking the mickey.. lol of Madge..

[ClownPosse]

Tentatively titled the " Ageing, Washed-Up, Has-Been Singer Wanting to Cash-In AGAIN" Tour!

[phillymonster]

washed-up? She was the biggest money making musical performer of the last year. It's a fact, not opinion.

Jeez loueeez..a­ll of you...give Madonna a break...I accept that she's odd..but my gosh...she­'s parlayed herself into yes..an Icon....su­re..Beverl­y Sills had a better voice; but she couldn't fill a stadium like Madonna...­madonna is POP entertainm­ent..has HAS has some good songs..(li­ke a prayer is a very good song!)... I think, given her age...the death of a contemporary just makes "death" seem real.
when Farrah lost her battle...i­t hit me harder that I thought. I recently completed aggressive chemo/radi­ation..hav­e NO idea if cancer will come back..so I identified with Farrah, even though our lives couldn't be more different. I'm 54...and right now...woul­d LOVE to know I'll make it to 62...

so on this one, I'll cut Madonna some slack (on the strange adoptions.­.no..but this is different)­...

Find some kindness huff[po'er­s...everyo­ne grieves in their own way..

[cdc1908]

I see your point. I was kinda surprised by her reaction to his death because I didn't think MJ and Madonna were friends or really knew each other, but I can see that she's affected by the death of a contemporary

[Goliadkin]

Cashing in on Michael's death? Already? Beyond crass.

[CorkiDeCat]

They both lived, and live in da da land..

[ZimboChick]

do it Madge and do it big!

[fumes]

!

[AlligatorShuz]

I remember People Magazine interviewing Michae Jackson and they ask him about an incident between Madonna and Michael she wanted to record a song with himand they had some words and he told her she couldn't sing or dance and that he would never record a song with her. So why is she trying to do anything when Michael Jackson didn even like her!

[ZimboChick]

Unless MJ said that in the flesh - some of us will take it s hearsay.

[alsm9]

People magazine is a tabloid.

[revko]

Modonna does dance like a circus horse.

[angelv]

and she definately cannot sing

[sexyrexy]

she was doing her yoga..

[goddess1871]

She will honor the artistic contributions of Michael Jackson by featuring a gro-up se.x dance feature, followed by dr.y hum.ping with a backup dancer.

[DrDemon]

mmmmmMMMMMMM !

[nton]

these tributes are never about the deceased its all about the performer and pumping themselves up by their association with the deceased - I guarantee there would be no tributes for lesser known but more talented artists.

[Wiseronenow]

As, I've always said, if you heard one Madonna song you've heard them all.

Can't she show respect for the Jackson family and let THEM take the stage at O2 in honor of Michael first! Has to hog the limelight whereever she goes.
