Michael Jackson's memorial service
Michael Jackson's death occurred 15 years ago, on June 25th, 2009. He was 50 years old. It was a moment that had a deep impact on the world and the entertainment community. A few weeks after, a memorial was hosted, with 31 million people tuning in to watch the live program. It was packed with speakers and performers. Brooke Shields was one of them, sharing a eulogy where she revealed that while the two had lost touch over the years, she treasured their friendship. "To us, it was the most natural and easiest of friendships... Both of us needed to be adults very early, but when we were together, we were two little kids having fun," she said in her eulogy. Other speakers included Kobe Bryant and Queen Latifah, both having personal relationships with Jackson.
The service also featured various musical performances, including John Mayer, who performed an instrumental version of "Human Nature," Usher, who performed "Gone Too Soon," and Mariah Carey, who performed "I'll Be There," the song originally performed by the Jackson 5.
