Michael Jackson?s children and other family members came together to launch an auction, accept a posthumous award and remember the singer on what would have been his 60th birthday.
Reuters reports that children Paris and Prince Jackson, brothers Tito and Jackie and R&B singer Usher joined more than 1,500 guests in Las Vegas for a performance of the Cirque du Soleil show ?One,? based on music by the King of Pop.
Paris and Prince accepted the Elizabeth Taylor AIDS Foundation Legacy Award on behalf of their father. Taylor, who died in 2011, was a close friend of the singer and Paris is an ambassador for the Foundation.
The siblings also launched an auction for a newly created pair of ruby and diamond-studded sneakers that are expected to fetch more than $50,000. The money will go to Taylor?s AIDS foundation.
