Was this MICHAEL performing in PERSON at the VMA with JANET?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BaPuDBcUL-g

From MsInsignificant a new member @ MJDH forum - These are stills taken from Janet's performance at the VMA's, the sound has been removed. Michael was there performing what you see is an illusion. He is above the stage on a platform over the door Janet comes out of, in front of the big screen.

This is not a hologram, no hologram was ever announced and there is a shot of Michael facing the screen with his back to the camera (why would they show his back if it was a hologram). If a hologram had been used it would have been more prominent and not way up on that little platform

OMG!!! What is this??

He is faceing the audiens from that platform at 06:30 but I cant see his face clear enough.
Are you sure this isent a Hologram?

Why would Michael take the risk of showing up for his own tribute concert from Janet?

Is this for real? I wish I could have seen it, the real way, if I could have seen the way he moved, I could have told for sure..

it gave me chills.....that really could be him!!

OMG,i finally saw what u were talking about,why would he be there and risk it,that means that EVERYONE in the audience or backstage would have to know right?maybe why janet looked so angry and upset afterwards?EVERYONE in that audience should have felt ASHAMED of themselves after madonna's speech,they DID turn their backs on him and let him fall by the wayside,maybe thats why janet looked pissed off,she also realized that at that moment?just a thought

Yes and if you watch the ORIGINAL Scream video MICHAEL NEVER TURNS AROUND at that point in the video but in this performance he looks at the big screen before he disappears. I watch both over and over again.

The ILLUSION (michael LOVES illusion) was that what you saw was part of the video, the same way when Janet is dancing with him towards the end they remove her from the video and she dances live next to the video instead!

If you look at still shot 5:10

Michael turns his back to the audience before he disappears. That is not in the original scream video.

I just watched this a few times and then watched the Scream Videos. I do see where Michael is standing in front of the face in the video, but... I didn't see where he made that particular pose in the video, so... Is that MJ?
Great catch...

Whoa I seen it to and it looked like MJ.I wonder if anyone noticed him and that is not a hologram I can tell you that awesome find CantStopLovingU.

Sure looks alike MJ to me lol

Well I think he gave us a clear enough sign at the VMA'S awards. I am so very proud of him, he is the only person that I could think of that could pull off a hoax like this one. Love you so much Michael


The key to change.....is to let go of fear.

I am convinced it is him too and WHAT A BRILLIANT WAY to pull it off! In front of the whole world! Because most people have blinders on and think he is gone they cannot see whats real in front of their eyes!

No reason for the audience to know at all. They thought it was part of the video.

Man Michael is very smart,I tell you that video was amazing.

HAHAHA,
Exactly.
Makes me proud of MJ. Just to realize how much of a genious he is.
My gosh.

And didnt someone say in the Vienna threads that, if a Hologram or something was used that the audience there would not be able to see it, BUT the people watching on TV would be able to see something...
I guess maybe it wasnt a hologram. But, what if someone had seen him and sid, HEY isnt that Michael?

I'm gonna be honest here and ask this....

BUT, was I the only one on the edge of my seat... HEART BEATING FAST, thinking MICHAEL was going to come out form one of those curtains at any minute?? Not that I was originally expecting it, but I lkept waiting at one point.. LOL

ok...I am going to be on the limb and say that video just freaked the h--- out of me. That was disturbing.

Me too but after watching the scream video, it looks like they MAY have spliced some of it together differently for Janets tribute. Because if you watch them side by side it isnt the same

I was just getting ready to post this.....

I look forward to watching this.....

I like how they removed her out of the video and had her dancing along with him.

Technology is pretty amazing indeed these days....

if it was a holagram i didnt like it much-just too eerie-especially since we didnt see it till now-in a slo mo vid you know

You can still make a new post about it MJJ Love. I just posted it here because it was on topic.

Guys I thought this too when I seen it earlier but I just studied the VMA's and the scream video and they match Watch the video, it happens so quickly that you almost miss it but at the beginning around 0.36 you see the first stance and then shortly after 1:00 you see the second with his arm out and finger pointed. I am so disappointed but still not giving up hope! I still think this could have been a clue.

I'm open to the possibilities of it being him but here is my question why dose he appear to be much larger then the dancers on stage?...unless I missed something.

I think even if he "looks like" MJ. It might be one of the impersonators. We will never know...

I would love to believe it's him but seems too risky to me. Technology can do so mocuh these days so I'm sure there is an explaination for how 'real' they made it look.

No I dont think it was a holagram it was MJ IMO.

Well you can see from my last post on this subject that I am very disappointed that the Scream video matches the VMA's. However, after talking to a friend of mine last night who also believes he is alive, she said that there is something to the way the video was cut for the tribute that makes her believe that while Michael was not really there he was definitely leaving clues. Otherwise, why would they have set it up to appear that he was standing on the platform. She also says that she believes that the whole Jackson family is not aware of the hoax because Michael didn't trust many people and he knew the type of people his father and brother Jermaine were. She believes that the only people in the family that truly know for a fact that he is still with us is Janet and Katherine and of course the kids because he would not let them go through the hell of thinking their father was dead when he isn't.

i watched some other videos of it and if you look when janet breaks trough the glass and get on stage on the right side you see somebody behind that thing walking down very strange

but i think i would be to much of a risk so dont think mj was there
