Calling all Michael Jackson fans! Get ready to experience the chance of a lifetime. To help celebrate the release of ‘Michael Jackson’s This Is It’ on DVD and Blu-ray, HMV and Sony Pictures Home Entertainment launch a very special midnight signing event with guests, director Kenny Ortega and choreographer Travis Payne at HMV’s flagship Oxford Street store in London’s West End on Sunday 21st February 2010.



The event kicks off at 10 pm with dancers performing the routines from the ‘This Is It’ show. At 11pm-midnight Kenny Ortega, Travis Payne and the ‘This Is It’ dancers will meet fans and sign copies of the DVD and Blu-ray which are officially released on Monday 22nd February.



‘This Is It’ was a planned series of fifty concerts by Michael Jackson to be held at The O2 arena in London. They were scheduled to begin in July 2009 and continue through March 2010. Jackson officially announced the concerts at a press conference held inside The O2 arena. AEG Live, the concert promoters, released a promotional video that took up an entire commercial break, setting a record for ITV. The shows were to be Jackson's first major series of concerts since the ‘HIStory World Tour’ finished in 1997, and had been cited as one of the year's most important musical events. Over one million people would have attended in total.



‘Michael Jackson's This Is It’ directed by Kenny Ortega, documents Michael Jackson's rehearsals and preparation for the series of concerts. The film is now the highest grossing concert movie and documentary in the history of cinema.

wow people who got to go to that are sooooooooooooooo lucky
i wish they'd came to the north of england :/
<3

No kidding. I would have LOVED to have been there. Would have been a bit sad not having Michael, but at the same time, to be with these people who worked with Michael, would have just been a great experience. Almost like the closest thing we could get.

I wish they would have done something like this is Los Angeles. I would have been there in a minute. I hope the people who did go, had the time of their lives, and appreciated the experience.
