Michael Jackson’s Star – Hollywood Walk of Fame

By Betty Byrnes

April 25th, 2010. Today is 10 months that Michael Jackson is in heaven with the Lord. Some days it feels like yesterday and some days it feels like forever that he has left this world. Fans are still mourning.

On this ten month anniversary of MJ’s death and to mark the day and honor Michael Jackson,
I decided to meet fans from other groups who had sent out a message to gather in
“Unity” at Michael Jackson’s star on Hollywood Walk of Fame.

This is the place to meet people from all over the world who simply LOVE Michael Jackson.
Every where you turn you hear many different languages being spoken.
Little children were such a joy to watch as they saw MJ’s star and excitedly
squealed “Mommy, Michael Jackson. Mommy please take my picture at
Michael Jackson’s star” and with unbridled joy and
not a hint of hesitation plop down on the sidewalk for a photo.

I felt it not a coincidence, since I don’t believe in coincidences,

that Michael Jackson’s star was only one star over from Mickey Mouse’s star.

Even Pluto and some Disney characters came
meandering by and stopped at MJ’s star to show
their respect to the King Of Pop.

I met fans from three other MJ fan groups who decided to come together in unity,
handed out flyers to the public asking support for
JUSTICE for Michael Jackson and shared with one another,
discovering different activities being planned by each group.
All based on JUSTICE4MJ and supporting justice in any way possible.
The consensus was:
If you can be at the court house on June 14th then come,

if you can tweet for JUSTICE then tweet,

if you can write letters then write,

if you can email then email.

Whatever the fans can do to get out the message
JUSTICE4MJ

we will continue to do just that.

We will NOT give up!!

Although Michael Jackson is gone from us for ten months now, he continues to weave his magical tapestry, joining fans from all different walks of life, creeds and nationalities

together with one common bond…
L.O.V.E.

Excerpt from the

“New Afterword to the 2009 Re-issued Edition MOONWALK” by Shaye Areheart:

“In the evenings, we would sometimes see a movie in the screening room. I remember him taking his friend and advisor Karen Langford and me to the L.A. County Children’s Museum,

which they kept open for us after hours. We exhausted ourselves leaping against Velcro walls,

standing in front of spinning lights, and throwing ourselves into pools of plastic balls.

On the way home, he asked the driver to pull over somewhere near the

intersection of Hollywood and Vine and jumped from the car to dance on his star

on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, singing some perfect little bit of a song

before leaping back in, and off we went into the night.

It was exhilarating to be in his presence.

He was exciting and funny and brilliant.”
