motown 25

If you can answer these questions that would be great!

Who all performed at it and in what order?

Who attended? (just celebrities, anyone who got a ticket, etc.)

I just re-watched this the other day at my moms house (she has it on VHS).
I cant tell u by memory who performed in order, but of course Michael and the Jackson 5, Marvin Gaye, Adam Ant, El Debarge, Pointer Sisters, Lionel Richie via satellite, Smokey Robinson, Diana Ross, Stevie Wonder...just a bunch of them. lol

Heres a website with all that were there - of course not all performed, but they attended. U should just get the tape and watch it. That would help you more than anything.

AW: motown 25

Young Whitney Houston was in the audience. Just watch it again on DVD! Perfect evening. What amazing talent on that stage!
