Michael Jackson Fans Pay Tribute to The Billion Dollar Man

SYDNEY : Michael Jackson fans around the world lit candles on Friday to mark the death one year ago of the controversial pop star whose posthumous popularity has returned him to a pedestal and made him a billion dollar man.

Fans in Hanoi, Vietnam, held a night of performances of Jackson’s songs while 50 Japanese admirers one for each year of his life were picked from 10,000 people to spend a night at Tokyo Tower among the singer’s possessions in the Neverland Collection, the only official Michael Jackson exhibition.

“The idea may sound a bit odd to Western cultures, but in Japan the tradition of being with the remains and possessions of passed loved ones on the anniversary of their passing is an important ritual,” said Hiroyuki Takamura of the Tokyo Tower.

Jackson’s sudden death at age 50 on June 25 last year in Los Angeles sparked an outpouring of grief internationally for the former child star, who was rehearsing for a series of concerts aimed at reviving a career shattered by bizarre events as an adult and acquittal on charges of molesting a 13-year-old boy.

One year on, Jackson is again idolised and his debts a burden of the past.

Hollywood trade paper Billboard estimated Jackson’s earnings in the past year have hit $1 billion, including album sales generating about $383 million and revenue from the film “This Is It” hitting nearly $400 million.

But in death as in life, controversy continues to plague the star with his personal doctor awaiting trial on a criminal charge of causing his death by giving him a powerful anaesthetic as a sleep aid and his sister LaToya claiming he was murdered for his back catalogue.

Italian tourist Sinzia Massimi posed for pictures hugging the Jackson statue. Afterwards she said the singer had special significance for her as a dancer. “I cry, I very cry for Michael,” Massimi told.

From Shanghai to Washington D.C. nine Madame Tussauds attractions will pay tribute to Jackson, whose untimely passing June 25 of last year shocked fans around the world.

Each attraction will create its own tribute exhibit. Madame Tussauds New York’s exhibit will be free to the public, so that New Yorkers and Times Square tourists and passerby’s alike will have a chance to be close to the “King of Pop” once again.
