Watch Michael Jackson hologram perform at Billboard Awards
By Sam Rigby
Michael Jackson made a return to the stage in holographic form at the Billboard Music Awards on Sunday (May 18).
Jackson performed Slave to the Rhythm alongside holographic and live dancers, and was seen performing his iconic moon walk during the live show.
The performance – which saw Jackson dressed in a white jacket with gold braid and red trousers – was met with a standing ovation from the star-studded audience at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas.
The singer – who died in June 2009 – hit number one in the UK over the weekend with his latest posthumous collection Xscape.
Meanwhile, Jackson’s duet with Justin Timberlake, Love Never Felt So Good, climbed to number eight on this week’s UK Top 40.
