A professional skater wearing a Michael Jackson outfit dances with her dance group to the tune of “Thriller” in tribute to the legendary “king of pop” at a skating rink inside a mall in Manila July 4, 2009. More than half a million fans from around the world applied for 17,500 free tickets to Jackson’s public memorial service next week, organizers said on Friday as a massive security operation got underway.
