Charice recalled she was attending a private party of Warner Brothers when Jackson’s lawyer approached her and told her that Jackson had picked her as special guest for his last concert. “Nagpakilala siya ‘I’m the lawyer of Michael Jackson’… Sabi niya, Michael Jackson chose you to be his special guest in his world tour, napatigil po ako,” she said. Jackson’s lawyer reportedly said that “The King” had watched her during her guestings on Oprah.Jackson picked Charice after watching a YouTube footage of her singing “Billie Jean” while doing the “moonwalk”. “Right away, sabi niya, ‘I want this kid!’” said Charice. Jackson was reportedly planning to do a Billie Jean duet with Charice while they do a dance showdown. “Doon ko po na-feel na mabait po siya,” said the singer. “Kasi naguumpisa pa lang ako, siya legendary singer na po siya.” Charice said she is still thankful for Jackson’s gesture. She added that she will pay tribute to the King of Pop in her first solo concert to be held on Saturday.
