Michael Jackson Lives on at Madame Tussauds

Michael Jackson gained immortality Thursday at the world-famous Madame Tussauds in Hollywood. Read on for details…

A wax figure of the King of Pop was unveiled to pomp and circumstance, just two days before what would have been his 51st birthday, and "The Insider" was there!

The museum turned the occasion into a big celebration, with a DJ spinning the Grammy winner's timeless tunes and Jackson imitators strutting their stuff, including a Moonwalk demonstration.

Crafted in London and shipped to the States under tight security, the wax figure's price tag is said to be $300,000.

  • For the first time since his passing I looked at one of his videos and it's still hard to believe he's gone. I wonder how Janet and Diane Ross are doing. I have heard a word from either one since MJ death.

    • I feel the same. As hard as it is.....at least we had him for 50 years. But it's still hard folks knowing he is gone. I was a MJ fan for 40 years. All my life. He was like part of my family.

  • Happy Birthday Michael ! I recently was visiting Hollywood Blvd. Friday evening ,when I came upon this incredable Michael Jackson look alike . He was simply wonderful he spent time with each and every visitor that came his way taking pictures and signing autographs . The resemblance was absolutly incredible! I asked one of his entourage who he was and she said his name was Michael Kiss and I could learn more about him on FOLLOWMICHAELKISS.COM Iwould definitely make trip down to the Hollywood Blvd. to experince this incredible performer! MICHAEL JACKSON WOULD BE PROUD TO SEE THAT LEGENDS NEVER DIE! (TST)

  • We call for complete vindication of Michael Jackson by mainstream media. Michael Jackson was exonerated by a jury of his peers in 2005. Not good enough for his admirers. For his children’s sake, mainstream media must become more responsible. We discuss how truth can compel mainstream media to publicly admit it wrongly accused Michael Jackson of despicable crimes. Many people still believe Michael Jackson was guilty of these crimes. People were influenced to believe the allegations by a biased mainstream media. Please join us.
