Excited for Michael Jackson!

Hey Y'all!


After nearly five fucking years, the music world is FINALLY doing something right!
The spirit of the King of Entertainment, Michael Jackson, will live on, TONIGHT, at the Billboard Music Awards, in the form of a hologram.
The story of this exciting and masterful comeback broke only a few days ago, and truly, the MJ fandom has been going haywire every since. And as part of that fandom, I will say I haven't slept right in days, waiting for this! (thank God for coffee!) The question coming out of everyone's mouth via social media is "WHAT WILL MICHAEL LOOK LIKE?"
It literally takes me back to the days of when Michael was earthbound and he would go someplace. The first thing I asked was, "What was he wearing? How was his hair?" The consensus I'm seeing is that most of the fans beleive that a "Bad" tour Michael Jackson will be revived onstage.

The idea behind this, is that, really, in 1988, Michael Jackson did sit and have a hologram of himself start to be developed, with his image being created. I'm not sure if he actually got to see the digital version of himself, but the image was left behind to be tinkered with.

A hologram coin with an image similar to the way Michael's 1988 hologram looked.
And a few years ago, I beleive it was at Coachella, another deceased singer was brought back when Tupac Shakur debuted in hologram form.

Tupac to the right, looks pretty realistic. But I'm glad they waited to perfect the technology a few years before using it on Michael Jackson. I want it perfect.
But the thing I keep thinking about is...wondering really is "What if it's not BAD Michael? What if it's MATURE Michael?"
My way of thinking is this: If the hologram is a success, someone is going to jump up and want to send Hologram Michael on tour. And really, if it were 55-year-old Michael Jackson on tour in real life, he'd look closer to how he did in "This Is It" as opposed to "Bad".

You get the curly hair, as with the Bad tour, but obviously, Michael's complexion is lighter due to his Vitiligo, and he's a bit thinner...but GOSH, does it really matter?
In a world where a bunch of no-talent hacks no one even will care about 5 years from noware taking over, we have to cling to what we can get from the man that was and is the BEST.
That's Michael Jackson.
And frankly I don't mind if it's 15-year-old Mike, 25-year-old Michael or 55-year-old Michael emblazoned on that stage tonight, I just want MICHAEL JACKSON up there, period.
Back where he belongs. Back where he deserves to be.
Back recieving awards and headlining shows and giving me and "my people" palpiltations at the sight of him.
I want my eyes to bug and tears to well up and feel that warm, peaceful feeling in my chest that I always had when I looked at him.
Furthermore, I want all these little so-and-so acts runnign around to look up and see how a HOLOGRAM of a man that's been in Heaven for FIVE YEARS can still outdo and slay all thier asses!

Because even after FIVE YEARS, Michael Jackson is still FLAWLESS!
