TOKYO —
Illusionist Princess Tenko recounted her memories of U.S. pop star and her one-time co-performer Michael Jackson this week, including the surprise she had when she discovered he used felt pens for his makeup.
‘‘He had many pens and even asked if I wanted to use one for myself,’’ Tenko said during the opening ceremony for an exhibition in Tokyo featuring some 120 memorial items belonging to Jackson, who died June 25 last year.
‘‘He was special and entertaining,’’ Tenko said, recalling that he was interested in making ice cream using hippo’s saliva and had asked if she liked the idea.
The event ‘‘MJ46 Keep on Loving’’ displays half of the items during the first period through Sunday and the remaining half between May 24 and 31 at Tokyo’s upscale Roppongi Hills complex.
Some of the exhibits will be also made public in Chatan, Okinawa Prefecture, from May 25 to 30 and in Nagoya from June 5 to 8.
