Twitter was aflutter with tweets regarding Michael Jackson’s memorial, his massive talent, and how he will be sorely missed. A number of celebrities paid their last respects to the superstar by tweeting as they watched his moving memorial, according to E! Online.
Tennis great, Serena Williams tweeted, “Today, we honor Michael Jackson for his love, music, & being a genius. I’m still shocked. Please, share your favorite songs. Thriller is great. Remember the Time is such as classic as well. Life is short, but his music will never die. MJ was subjected to harsh words, but I hope that people find understanding & stop judging.”
Paula Abdul sent out a tweet that said, “Remembering MJ and the true legend that he was and will live on to be...I’m taking some time to reflect today.”
Larry King can tweet with the best of them and wrote, “I was surprised MJ’s body was there, but it was very touching. Al Sharpton gave such a commanding speech, so dramatic in tone & content. There was so much emotion when Usher & Brooke Shields took the stage. This has all been phenomenal but I hope the stories die down soon. Let’s let him have some peace.”
Paris Hilton wrote, “In tears watching the MJ Memorial Service on TV, so touching. Everyone loves you Michael!”
Ryan Seacrest paid his respects by tweeting, “This makes the world feel so small…everyone connected right now.”
Singer and actress Brandy said in her tweet, “Michael Jackson will forever inspire my soul forever live in my heart. He is an angel that can now see his wings. R.I.P.”
Kelly Osbourne wrote, “MJ’s children are so brave to stand up there and remember their father while the whole world is watching!”
