Hold My Hand Video - Anyone get cast? I did!

[katy (MJFAN7)]

Wow! You are SO lucky! You know you're a part of HIStory now, right? You're in a MICHAEL JACKSON music video! OMG im making myself even more jealous! :lol:

[MJhasSpoken]

Oh yeah isn't he the guy who directed that Pearl Jam video, and I think I heard his wife died and is  buried at Forest Lawn.

Oh muh gud! ur soo lucky! If I were cast it would be the highlight of my life!

Hey guys. Sorry I haven't gotten back.
Well the shoot was amazing, the director was very nice, i guess the only thing I can complain about was the freezing cold temperature.  It was sunny but very windy- not something I like.
Anyway we did multiple takes of kind of the same things- pretty much what you read on TMZ is what you get.
We walked into this huge tunnel thing and the sun shining in made a long stream of light, so we went in through there and walked back out all while clapping our hands etc.  The director said it was meant to represent ascension into heaven.
At the end we shouted "we love you michael" and released white balloons.  We then danced freestyle to the song and did a couple takes of that.  Sadly Akon wasn't there, but I did see other professional dancers and little kids dressed in costume, but they filmed at a different time than the extras so I"m not exactly sure what their roles were.

Was there anything at the end of the light? Who was the director?

The director was Mark Pellington.
We didn't have to wear anything specific, the only restrictions were no stripes, logos, and no white shirts.

I wore bright yellow to stand out LOL




But as far as I'm concerned, nothing seemed too suspicious or out of the ordinary.

And there wasn't anything at the end of the light.  Once we got to the end that was the end of the shot and we'd do it again.

Thanks for sharing that....how can you top that??  So happy for you Roxy101.  You've just made HIStory...xoxo

That is so-o cool. You are blessed! It sounds like it's going to be very celebration-like, and Michael's going to have his trade-mark white shirt on, that's probably why you couldn't. Michael will maybe come out of the beam of light down to you all.

So there is a light at the end of the tunnel. I knew it all along.

Looks like Roxy told you just about everything! Roxy...why didn't we meet?!

Two things struck me as odd....ok no....three:

1. The whole whispering Michael thing. We whispered and then got louder and louder until we were cheering...as if we were asking for him to come out and then we saw him (as if...not really).
2. The director said "Michael IS a genius" (present tense)
3. The director said that the video will air on ABC on Dec 6....probably on Oprah....which makes me think that Oprah is part of this entire hoax and helping Mikey come back.

I was emotionally exhausted after the video shoot....I had the best time and met so many people....well except Roxy apparently! HA! Can't wait to see what the video looks like. I had on an orange shirt with a black leather jacket on....long brown hair.....holding hands! HA!

[MJhasSpoken]

OMG it might not be anything but remember when the KJ interview came on Oprah it was a significant day cant remember why though anyway , I checked what might be significant about Dec 6th, I saw that Ryan White was born of this day in 1971. So if Oprah has shows that are about the Jacksons put on significant days then she must be apart of the hoax.

Also hoped MJsbasheret and Roxy had a great time.

It's Oprah! Oprah again!  :lol:

To the believers who went did you get an email saying it was postponed.

Does that mean that MJ will come out in the video but they will be using a hologram (or him). Cause it doesn't make sense to cheer and chant his name and he doesn't appear.

Possibly...those 3d scans of Michael might come in handy....but I'm hoping it will be a trick..escapism, magic.....when everyone believes its a double, but it really is him.

I can only hope.  God Bless xoxo

So neat to just say I can talk to someone who has been in a music video...thank you for sharing!  Back in the day, I dabbled in extra parts for movies etc.....so much fun to be around that energy.  
Many Blessings!

Yes...we all got the email saying it was postponed...but MJ fans are too smart for the idiot who sent out that email. B/c the email came from a live.com address with the name Michael misspelled. The original email we got was from a gmail.com account and it had the name spelled correctly. So we questioned it pretty quickly and the correct people sent out an email (pretty last minute) to tell us that the other email was fake.

And yes....really strange to me about the chanting...but in the same breath....the director seemed to make stuff up as he went along. Nothing seemed planned except for the walking in the light.

The other thing that was odd was when we first asked when the video would air the director said he wasn't sure. Then later, before they released us, he was very specific and said Dec 6th.

And I do believe Oprah has a lot to do with MJs return. Not sure how they are gonna pull it off....but it's coming! Can you feel it?!
