He is the best entertainer ever! His concerts were just amazing! Sometimes when I watch his concerts, I stop breathing because he is just an amazing performer! Especially the bad tour because he was singing and dancing at the same time! Even when years after he was singing playback, it still good because he was dancing and it was just amazing! Madonna or Britney don't deserve n°1 even if I like them!

His concerts are piece of arts, watching him is very entertaining. Love MJ
