Contrary to popular belief it was Gladys Knight who discovered the Jackson 5 not Diana Ross.

This is finally hitting me like a brick. He is really gone and tomorrow is his final curtain.

I feel that way too ...
Gladys Knight is very appropriate and she was the Motown star that really discovered the J5

I bet she does a great job with that soulful voice of hers...

wish I could be there, too, to say goodbye, but that really is going to be sad ...

What's the difference between Neil Armstrong and Michael Jackson? One did the moonwalk, the other's dead.

I attended her concert in the Oakland Temple a year ago. I enjoyed her performance very much. Thank you for singing at Michael Jackson's burial tomorrow night.

Glendale Forrest Lawn is a beautiful place, better than Hollywood Hills.
