2009 was supposed to bring some much-needed polish to Michael Jackson's career. In March, the King of Pop announced that he was preparing This Is It, an ambitious 50-date concert series in London, England. On June 25, everything changed. A few weeks shy of his first comeback concert, the world was stunned to learn of Michael Jackson's passing. Search engines overflowed, entertainment blogs were overloaded and news networks ran tributes around the clock. A memorial celebration was watched by an estimated one billion people worldwide and featured all-star performances from the likes of Jennifer Hudson, John Mayer, Mariah Carey, and Usher, as well as a moving impromptu speech from his surviving daughter, Paris Katherine Jackson.

Michael Jackson and his much-publicized personal struggles were suddenly gone, but his musical popularity went through the roof. Within six weeks of his death, close to four million of his albums were sold in U.S. stores alone, while millions more songs were bought online. As a curtain call to the concert series that never was, the rehearsal footage from This Is It was turned into a concert film and released worldwide in October, giving his fans a close look at just what he was working on in the days leading up to his untimely exit.

he wasn't entered last year, and that says a lot about this society, that is not good.
