This Is It shows Jackson still had it

MICHAEL JACKSON is gone but a night celebrating the King of Pop proved his legacy lives on.

London was one of 17 cities across the world which hosted simultaneous premieres of a film of footage from Jackson’s rehearsals for his This Is It live dates.

Jackson, 50, died in June, just weeks before the 50-date residency at London’s O2 was due to start, but the film gives a taste of the spectacle he had planned to be his “curtain call”.
