The Michael Jackson memorial has brought celebrities out to pay tribute to the man who inspired them in their own musical careers. Michael Jackson‘s coffin was brought to the Staples Center and is being placed at the front of the stage where big name musicians will sing above him.
The opening of the memorial began with Jackson’s friend Smokey Robinson reading tributes submitted by both Nelson Mandela and Diana Ross, who were unable to attend the memorial.
