LOS
ANGELES, Nov. 24 /PRNewswire/ — Today, November 24, Jermaine Jackson
will announce his support of the largest and most respected Michael
Jackson tribute in the world, which is already supported by Diana Ross,
Gladys Knight, George Lopez, Adam Lambert, Mickey Rooney, Vivica A.
Fox, Floyd Mayweather, Jr. and many others.
The
last day before Thanksgiving break, 60 students from three inner city
public schools will walk down the red carpet with Jermaine Jackson and
other celebrity guests and become a dot in the largest Michael Jackson
tribute in the world. Jermaine Jackson will be making a special
announcement and his presence at the event will be a surprise for the
children. Jermaine says, “It’s all for love.”
The Michael Jackson Tribute Portrait is
a charitable project that has brought together nearly a quarter of a
million fans in more than 165 countries. This one-of-a-kind work of art
is being created by LA based celebrity artist David Ilan using a
technique called pointillism – made from hand drawn dots. Fans
everywhere are being invited to receive a free dot in their name by going to: www.MichaelJacksonTributePortrait.com. One Dot = One Fan.
“We
see Michael’s Tribute Portrait as an opportunity to carry on Michael’s
work. This is our mission,” said Executive Producer Jerry Biederman.
The students will perform a rendition of a Michael Jackson hit in front
of celebrity guests and be treated to an exclusive screening of “THIS
IS IT.”
The red carpet
event starts at 9:30 a.m. at the AMC Magic Johnson Theatres at 4020
Marlton Avenue in Los Angeles. This event is organized in association
with May May Ali (daughter of Muhammad Ali) and Torre Reese of FAMLI,
INC. (a nonprofit after school enrichment/mentoring program). The “dot
ceremony” begins at 10 a.m.; Jermaine Jackson will be available for
interviews at 11 a.m.
The
Tribute Portrait is a continual work of art that requires fan
participation for its completion. A dot is not drawn until someone
signs up for it. The portrait will take one million dots to complete –
one million fans side by side. Once completed, it will go on a world
tour to promote the humanitarian causes that Jackson cared about.
