Michael Jackson’s Birthday Party: Brooklyn, New York

August 28, 2009 By 14 Comments

Michael Jackson should have been celebrating his 51st birthday tomorrow, Saturday 29th August, but instead he sadly passed away on the 25th June. But according to sfgate.com, it isn’t stopping his fans from still celebrating.

And the city of Brooklyn is holding a birthday party, as a celebration of Michael Jackson’s life. The free party will be held in the Nethermead meadow at Prospect Park on Saturday afternoon and will take place even if it rains.

Michael Jackson’s Birthday Party: Brooklyn, New York

It has been organized by director Spike Lee, who once worked with Michael Jackson. And apparently, the public celebration had to be moved, because of the expected crowds, which jumped from the estimated 2,000 to 10,000.

Rev. Al Sharpton will apparently deliver a prayer at the party, whil President Marty Markowitz will present a proclamation declaring August 29th as Michael Jackson Day in Brooklyn. Then DJ Spinna will play all Michael Jackson hits.

    I am deeply saddened still at the loss of such a talented and well-liked recording artist, such as, Michael Jackson was. He’ll
    always remain in the hearts of everyone, I’m
    sure, and he is dearly missed.
