Just In: Michael Jackson Rehearsal Footage

"The Insider" has just obtained the footage from one of Michael Jackson's final rehearsals, shot just two days before his death on June 23.


The one minute and forty two second video shows the late singer wearing black pants, red shirt, gray blazer and red lipstick while performing his song "They Don't Really Care About Us" live.

He appears strong and when he finishes the song he is all smiles.

Show co-creator and director Kenny Ortega says, "It was an incredible night, it was electric, he was invested, he was rocking the house."

  • This video shows Michael Jackson doing what all performers know to well and that is what is called "Marking". He is deliberately not giving it his all because he is saving it for the big show. Further the official dress rehearsals were probably...
