“If you wanna make the world a better place, take a look at yourself and then make a change.”
— Michael Jackson’s lyrics from “The Man in the Mirror.” The song rang out as the King of Pop’s casket was carried out of the Staples Center in Los Angeles Tuesday. The 20,000 seat arena was filled to capacity as fans witnessed tributes from Smokey Robinson, Brooke Shields, Al Sharpton and others during the two-and-a-half hour ceremony. –Jessica Shambora
