Thriller at the American Music Awards
A group performing the song Thriller at the World Music Awards ceremony in London has been invited to perform at the American Music Awards as a tribute to Michael Jackson.
Not long ago, Michael received the Diamond Award in London for selling more than 100 million music pieces. Media had reported that Michael Jackson would perform the legendary Thriller at this ceremony. But nothing like that was in the plan at all. The truth was that a performing group, along with Chris Brown—who is a talented dancer and also a devoted Michael fan—was recreating the famous and legendary Thriller.
As everyone else knows, many problems occurred in holding the music awards ceremony in London. But still, many stories published in newspapers are either not true or only tell part of the story.
Yes, it’s a shame that so many media outlets forced people to believe the news about Michael performing Thriller. And it’s surprising that nobody denied the rumor. This ceremony should have reminded people of Michael’s achievements and record-breaking sales—not an impromptu performance of We Are The World.
Of course we enjoyed Michael’s performance, but he decided that the closing act should be a song that matched the main purpose of the ceremony, which was held with charitable values.
After the ceremony ended, Michael met the Thriller performing group and thanked each and every dancer—some of whom even started crying. Michael also thanked the producer, Adrian Grant, and the director of the show, Kerys Nathan.
