Most male guests wore a fine tuxedo, some pinned on a flower, and the majority of females wore black dresses. Others paid their last respects with jeans and an MJ tribute shirt. Very few actually went all out and dressed up as the King of Pop himself … excluding of course 80’s actor Corey Feldman.The 37-year-old caused quite a stir as he entered the memorial on Tuesday morning donning a replica of Jackson’s iconic military jacket, sunglasses and a black fedora -- in addition to a white face and slicked back hair. Naturally, he garnered a few perplexed stares from a slew of celebrities on the auditorium floor.
Feldman and Jackson became good friends throughout the 80’s but had not spoken in several years prior to MJ’s death. In 2005 the "Stand By Me" star was subpoenaed to speak out against Jackson during the child molestation trial and said that while nothing sexual ever went on between them, things happened in their friendship that he felt were inappropriate and wrong.
So was it distasteful or admirable that Feldman imitated his former friend? My answer is neither. Feldman is just trying to get a gig out of it for more drug money.
