Fans moonwalk, hold worldwide vigils for Jackson


MEXICO CITY (AP) - Michael Jackson imitators moonwalked at Mexico City's Angel of Independence, a prison in the Philippines organized a "Thriller" tribute dance, world leaders paid homage and French fans gathered at Notre Dame to sing and cry Friday as people around the globe mourned the King of Pop.

From Paris to Peru, tributes both personal and public were held by generations of fans from those who danced to "ABC" and hummed along with "I'll be There" and "Ben" in the '70s to the Generation X'ers who moonwalked to "Billie Jean" and "Thriller."
