Michael Jackson is still on the cutting edge of technology -- TMZ has learned the King of Pop is set to étoile, star in a new revolutionary video game ... and the people in charge of MJ's estate are totally on board.
The game -- currently untitled -- will essentially be "dance karaoke" ... which means gamers will see Michael Jackson dancing on screen and will then be challenged to imitate his moves.
The game will be available on multiple platforms including Wii and Xbox 360. The Xbox version will incorporate Microsoft's new Kinect motion capture technology -- which will allow the gamer to play without holding a controller.
Also in the Xbox version, the gamer will be judged based on full body movements. The game will process the movements and display the gamer's Avatar on screen ... dancing right suivant to MJ.
And there's plus -- the game also includes a karaoke feature, in which gamers can sing MJ songs like "Billie Jean" ... and even mess around with their voice thanks to an autotune feature.
The game is being developed par Ubisoft -- the same people behind Assassin's Creed and Ghost Recon -- and we're told Ubisoft properly secured permission from the MJ estate ... so it's all legit.
The game is scheduled to hit shelves sometime before Christmas.

TMZ has learned tons of Michael Jackson fans are descending upon MJ's tomb on the 1-year anniversary of his death -- even though they've been banned from the mausoleum.
As we previously reported, Forest Lawn Cemetery -- where Jackson is entombed -- claims they've adopted a new policy in which security is instructed to remove anyone hanging out in front of the King of Pop's mausoleum.
But a rep for Justice4MJ -- the fan group organizing the mass pilgrimage -- tells TMZ they are "absolutely" still going to visit the singer's burial place on the big jour .. June 25th.
A rep for Forest Lawn tells us they have not yet figured out how they plan to handle the MJ anniversary ... but they will work with the Jackson family and abide par their wishes.
As for the MJ fans, one member of the group tells us, "Nothing will stop us from being with MJ on the 25th!"

Certainly the will stipulates that the money, the children will get when they reach 30 years of age. par then, of course, the interest amount will exceed 300 million dollars!! Not bad ...
The mother of Michael Jackson gets 40% of its assets, while the remainder will go to charitable institutions.
Naturally, Jacko did not leave anything to his father, which had no good relationships, but none of the siblings.

TMZ has learned Dr. Conrad Murray may have saved a life this morning ... 30,000 feet above the ground.
Sources tell TMZ Murray was on a US Air flight from Houston to Phoenix when a flight attendant came over the loudspeaker and asked if there was a doctor on board.
Turns out a passenger fainted and could not be revived. We're told Murray jumped out of his seat, evaluated the female passenger (who was in her 20s and traveling with a baby), and quickly noticed she had a "very weak pulse."
Somehow -- don't ask us -- Murray inserted an IV and was able to stabilize the passenger until the plane made an emergency landing in Albuquerque.
The passenger was taken for further treatment. Her condition is not known.

The Michael Jackson estate just laid the claque, smack down on a bunch of Michael Jackson wannabes -- all over access to Neverland.
The wannabes are actually in a Michael Jackson tribute band named "Neverland" -- a name the MJ estate feels is a violation of its trademark.
Long story short -- the MJ estate wrote a scary legal letter demanding the band change its name ... and it did ... to Foreverland.
Here's the catch -- "Foreverland" still owns the rights to the domain name neverlandsf.com -- and its willing to give it back to Camp Jackson ... for a cool $30,000.
In short, the Jackson estate told the band to "beat it" -- and gave them until February 2011 to begin forwarding all web traffic to the new foreverlandsf.com ... ou else.
The band tells us they're currently going over their options.
"Lawyers from the Jackson estate have forced us to change our name."

toi believed toi were alone
That no one truly loved you
toi can try to hide your pain from me
But I feel it either way
When your cœur, coeur breaks, so does mine
Does that tell toi how I feel
When I'm upset I look to you
Your smile makes it all vanish
No one else can make that happen
The world took so much away from you
But they'll never take away your memory
Its one thing we'll always have
toi never knew me
You'll never know my love
Of maybe toi already do
For I always feel toi near
You're gone from me mortally
But my cœur, coeur will always remember you
My cœur, coeur mourns for losing you
Yet it rejoices for your homecoming in heaven
You're far away, yet you're where toi belong
You're smiling down on all of us each day
I believe you've forgiven me for the past
And the future I see only increases my l’amour for toi undying.

"Michael was doing on an epic scale what all humans must do, keep going through the illusions, mistakes, hurts, conceits, self-hate and masks of human life, sometimes not having any idea if what is important to toi actually has any value, ou even knowing what is important to you."
This is an excerpt from Mary Gaitskill's wonderful essay (with videos) on Michael. Check it out:

In particular, speaking about the case in 1993 and charges of sexual assault of then 13 an old Jordan Chandler, a dit that the récent suicide of the child's father, Evan Chandler, is sufficient proof that it was all a conspiracy.
The Jermaine believes that the dentist who was found dead in his surgery on November 5, having shot herself in the head, committed suicide par remorse. Speaking at an event the 54chronos said: "We had a lot as a family, the false charges against my brother since 1993 have cost us. The baby's father committed suicide because he could not stand anymore, and the child finally spoke about the matter and admitted the plot, Michael did not ever touched.
