Tribute to Michael Jackson

Mikey was posting for the first time on twitter last night when the shocking news of Michael Jackson’s death was announced. This is what he had to say:

“I was on twitter last night, when I heard the news that Michael Jackson had died. What a tragic loss to the world of music and another legend no longer with us. No doubt there will be speculation and rumour surrounding his life and death, but no-one can deny that he was a huge influence on popular music. Only last year we performed our own tribute on the boyzone tour and putting that together made us realise the huge contribution that he made and how iconic he had become. RIP King of Pop”

    I was on twitter last night when i heard the news too and i could tell by Mikey’s tweets how shocked he was, like everyone else. Michael Jackson was a musical genius and even though his personal life was controversial there’s no denying that his music was some of the best in history. I was looking forward to seeing MJ live in February but i guess it wasn’t meant to be. RIP Michael Jackson.
