World Music Awards Flash Back to Jackson

Loading...

It's not just Michael Jackson's legacy that will live on. Thanks to the magic of reruns, his performances will, too.

Following on the heels of Fox's Jackson-centric repeat of American Idol Monday, MyNetworkTV tonight is devoting its primetime hours to an encore airing of the 2006 World Music Awards.

In addition to an appearance and performance by the superstar himself, the show provided the first—and possibly, thanks to Jay-Z, only—televised tribute Chris Brown performed for the King of Pop.

During the show, which also honored the 25th anniversary of "Thriller," Jackson was awarded the Diamond Award for his unrivalled contribution to the music industry and even closed the show by performing, alongside a choir of fans, "We Are the World."

Catch more highlights from the show after the jump.
