Michael Jackson’s Last Music Video Rehearsal Released Shows Singer Fine Only 2 Days Before His Death

We interrupt our regularly scheduled bible quiz to give our readers breaking news concerning the possible state of Michael Jackson just two days before dying. Jackson seemed OK while rehearsing for the upcoming first show. Speculation that had been popular that somehow the mega-pop star was frail and even sickly now seems not very reasonable to me. I plan on putting a direct link from a source such at YouTube in this post if I can find one in a day or two, so stay tuned.

The following are some of the last photos of Michael Jackson alive:
