Michael Jackson Hologram Receives Standing Ovation At Billboard Music Awards

Michael Jackson Hologram: Awesome? Creepy? Both?

Michael Jackson's hologram, the star attraction at the Billboard Music Awards, performed "Slave to the Rhythm" from his latest posthumous album "Xscape."

The "performance" required "nearly half a year of planning, choreography and filming, not to mention the development of new technology." It almost didn't make it onstage, either, after a last-minute lawsuit tried to kibosh the "performance," a projected 3D image like the one famously used to bring Tupac to Coachella.

The result garnered a hugely positive reaction from the assembled stars. But how did it play to you at home? Let us know in the comments.
