It was reported today that Stevie Wonder was one of the legendary artists to perform at Madison Square Garden last night for the 25th anniversary of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame special airing on HBO in November. Wonder payed tribute to his friend Michael Jackson with an emotional 'The Way You Make Me Feel'.
According to the AP, 'During one part in the chorus, Wonder stopped singing, bent his head and started to sob, but he quickly gathered his composure to finish the song, ending it joyously by leading the crowd with chants of "We Love Michael Jackson" and "Long Live Michael Jackson."' John Legend said of Wonder's performance that it "is very heartfelt, and you can see it, you can feel it."

Redemption: The Truth Behind the Michael Jackson Child Abuse Allegation book proves MJ was NEVER a child molester. Author Geraldine Hughes worked for Evan Chandler's attorney in 1993 and witnessed the extortion scheme, launched as child molestation when MJ refused to pay them $20 million dollars for a movie deal. Get your copy of Redemption on Amazon.com and find out how the FALSE child abuse allegations began.
