Wowww Michael Jackson's Hologram Rocks The Billboard Music Award 2014

Music legend, Michael Jackson may have died on June 25th, 2009 but his impeccable legacy lives on. Arguably the greatest entertainer that ever walked planet earth and the one who has had the most influenced on today's musicians, his musical impact on the entertainment industry cannot be over emphasized, and that is why years after his passing, we still can't have enough of MJ......Yes!......




last night at the Billboard 2014 awards, the world got to experience the king of pop again in a very special way.....thanks to technology, a Michael Jackson's hologram rocks the Billboard awards to a standing ovation.
Jackson appeared in a gold jacket, white T-shirt and red pants on a set modeled on the art work for the album "Dangerous"
The hologram performed "Slave to the Rhythm" midway through Sunday night's show with a five-piece band and 16 dancers on stage.....(Epic!!!)




"We have been talking about it for the last five months and while we were talking about it, they were still inventing the process" says BBMA director and producer, Larry Klein.

"It was really strange talking about something that did not exist"

Klein shot it to give the presentation the feel of a live performance. "You were watching the magic of Michael Jackson like you would have when he was performing" says Klien.





"At the time we made the decision," says Jackson's lawyer and adviser, John Branca,

"Slave to the Rhythm" felt like the song was something people could dance to, a potential club song. We talked to Jamie King, who directed the Michael Jackson Cirque du soleil shows and we all felt the song was very likeable"

The Talauega brothers, Rich and Tone who had worked with Michael in the past were brought in to draw up a dance move for Jackson and the other dancers in the film.

  "We knew we didn't need to go so far left field with his dance moves, we just kept it within his world" Rich Talauega says. "It's just the way you configure his steps so it looks different. You're still speaking the same language, it's just a different dialect"





Tone Talauega who was still in high school when he started working with Jackson, says they studied the singer's moves and had small things adjusted...the angle of a hand, the tilt of his head. The performance is "classic Michael but we put our spice on it" he says.
Demand for the Jackson hologram was considerable but in the end, Branca and the estate felt it needed to be shown with a live audience.

  "It's so important to experience Michael Jackson in a live setting" Branca said. "This is something where we wanted a live performance in front of a live audience and nothing speaks to that more than an award show"


Watch Michael Jackson hologram deliver an epic performance, so real it brought the crowd to tears and on their feet...............P L E A S E         W A T C H !!!!!!!!!

"Continue to rest in peace, King of pop and thank you for all that you gave us. Even in death you have continued to Rock our world"......R O B!!!
