High Quality footage taken from Michael Jackson's rehearsals of a performance of They Don't Really Care About Us from the This Is It tour at the Staples Center on 23rd June 2009.
A two minute snippet of Michael Jackson rehearsing two days before his death has been released, part of more than 100 hours of footage that could be turned into live albums, a movie and a pay-per-view special.


The material, along with possible insurance proceeds and ticket sales to memorabilia collectors, could help benefit Jackson's estate, burdened by an estimated 400 million US dollars in debt.

Rating: 0/5 stars

The blonde guitarist who was featured in the final video of Michael Jackson rehearsing before his death has been revealed as an Adelaide girl. -- Orianthi Panagaris, of Hawthorn

The South Australian-born musician, who is known professionally as Orianthi, performed at Jackson's public memorial.

She said she had grown close to the superstar since joining his This Is It comeback tour and features prominently in the video of Jackson's final Los Angeles rehearsal, recorded two days before his death, that has been shown extensively around the world.

"He had this wonderful aura about him, a beautiful spirit,"

Orianthi, 24, was a key part of the concert marathon, which was to have begun in London on July 13. Born January 22 1985

She had been rehearsing with Jackson six days a week for the past three months.

Orianthi, who now lives in Los Angeles, has been playing guitar since the age of six.

She got her big break in 2003 when she was invited to perform onstage in Adelaide, at Memorial Drive, with Carlos Santana, and has since played with stars Steve Vai, Prince, ZZ Top and country music sensation Carrie Underwood, at the American Grammy Awards.

Great showman. A single tour would have fixed the debt situation, as the 50-date sold-out shows at O2 showed.
