Michael Jackson's memorial service was held today in Los Angeles at the Staples Center. Celebrities that were spotted in the crowd included John Singleton, Lisa Raye, Cicely Tyson, Jesse Jackson, Lil Kim, Chris Brown and Dionne Warwick
Notable moments of the day:
- While Jennifer Hudson sang “Will You Be There”, several people in the audience audibly and visibly broke down and were virtually inconsolable.
- From inside the Staples Center, you could really feel the deep and profound loss in the atmosphere.
- The 20,000 audience members hung on to every word of Al Sharpton’s moving speech. Went to church on everybody in that piece…
- The Jackson family was incredibly moved at Usher’s rendition of “Gone Too Soon”
