I think it was something to do with the heal The World foundation, can't remember 100%, MJ had a few presentations and stuff done during recording SIM
 
I assume what happened was he donated a large sum of money to his charity and bid on the chance to meet MJ somewhere (in this case, on the set of his video for SIM). (you can see he's wearing the black/white Pepsi jacket, so he's obviously a fan).

I guess MJ wasn't feelin' it that day and was like UGH, k now u got ur pic and handshake, gtfo :D

It's like the only time I've ever seen MJ be...i dunno what the right word is. Not rude or shy, but yeah.

Uh, no. I was saying it WAS NOT live*. Because dude I quoted said HOW WILL HOLOGRAM TOUR HAPPEN IF HE CANT SING LIVE.

*save for the handful of live singing
 
It would be a fancy way of watching an impersonator. Just go see Earnest Valentino it'd cost half the price if not less!

EXCLUSIVE: Michael Jackson hologram could bring 'new' moonwalk to life

A HOLOGRAM of Michael Jackson is to perform a “new and improved” version of his famous moonwalk on a world tour.

THRILLER: New dance moves could be a treat for ***** fans [GETTY]
</section><section class="text-description" style="margin: 0px;">His estate reckons a ***** tour with revamped dance routines and new tracks from his latest posthumous album Xscape could earn a fortune.
It is hoping to capitalise later this year at venues across Europe and the US.
Fans were blown away last month when a digital image of the singer took to the stage at the annual Billboard Awards in America where his hologram belted out Slave To The Rhythm.
The astonishingly lifelike display followed the “virtual resurrection” of dead rapper Tupac Shakur who “performed” with Snoop Dogg and Dr Dre two years ago at California’s Coachella Festival.
Representatives of other dead stars including Elvis Presley, Jimi Hendrix and Frank Sinatra have said they want to develop full-blown concert tours featuring similar computer-generated images.
A media analyst said: “The latest technology uses techniques that enable previously filmed images of the stars to be manipulated to make almost any movement imaginable.
“There aren’t many minutes of genuine moonwalk footage, so creating new moves will involve a top choreographer as well as a state-of-the-art tech team to make them appear real.”

The new range of steps and moves has been devised by California computer effects company Digital Domain and Kenny Ortega, his This Is It tour choreographer.
A source close to Ortega, 64, said: “It’s a big dream of his to, in effect, work with Michael again using this amazing new technology.
“He ranks Michael as possibly the best dancer he has known and reckons it would be a terrific challenge to revamp his moonwalk.”
The technology made its debut more than four years ago at the 50th birthday party of X Factor boss Simon Cowell who commissioned Digital Domain boss Ed Ulbrich to bring Frank Sinatra back to life.
The resulting hologram of Ol’ Blue Eyes performing Pennies From Heaven was such a hit with guests that Ulbrich decided to refine the software to raise other stars from the dead.
Plans to use it as the basis of a “virtual tour” by ***** have, however, divided the family.
His sister Janet, 48, was so offended by her dead brother’s Billboard “appearance” that she pulled out of presenting an award at the event at the last minute.
His father Joe, 85, and elder brother Jackie, 63, were in the audience and later praised Michael’s “ghostly” appearance.
A source close to the family said: “Michael’s mom Katherine and his three children are still on the fence.
“But several other relatives are as angry as Janet and Michael’s image might eventually be moonwalking into one enormous bust-up between those who were closest to him.”
This month marks the fifth anniversary of the singer’s death at the age of 50 from a drugs overdose.

Stop right there. Disgusting. You aren't going to "improve" anything Michael did, ESPECIALLY doing this. I genuinely hope that the Estate will only use that hologram for the Billboards and nothing else.

But can't you see they already improved his music with Timbaland mixing it, they improved his looks by making him 20 years younger for a hologram......................get ready for the all new improved MJ, but fans will probably lap it up, the ones being slowly conditioned to accepting anything with Michael on it that is.

Simply. Not. True.
 
I'm against a world tour with a hologram of MJ. It's a shameful use to the image of a great artist like that.
