Michael Jackson Memorial To Be Erected In London

A memorial to Michael Jackson is to be erected in London to mark the first anniversary of his death.

The plaque will be unveiled on June 24 in the foyer of the Lyric Theatre in the West End.

The theatre is currently home to the Jackson musical Thriller, and also became a place of vigil for fans following the star's death on June 25 last year.

Jackson's death came less than two weeks before he was due to begin a 50-night concert residency at the O2 Arena.

Tributes will be paid all of this week to mark the first anniversary.
