While opening up her Sticky and Sweet Tour in London at the O2 Arena, the same venue where Michael Jackson would have started his tour on July 13th, Madonna took a moment to give respect to the late King of Pop. 

One of her Michael Jackson obsessed dancers, Kento dressed like him, took the stage giving the audience a taste of Michael’s signature moves, the Moonwalk of course, during “Billie Jean” and a medley of Michael Jackson songs.

Later Madonna told the crowd “Let’s give it up for one of the greatest artists the world has ever known – Michael Jackson!”

Madonna Pays Homage to Michael Jackson at the O2 Arena

Madonna shared “. . . Kento, my dancer, was obsessed with Michael all his life. And when Michael was having auditions for his tour, Kento really wanted to go but he’d already made a commitment to me. So now he’s about to have his moment and be Michael at my show.” (Source: Madonna.com)
