Ortega himself said whatever happened, wasn't planned that morning. The ONLY thing I can think of, is that Michael wen full out that one night. It takes about TWO days for the spine to accept and complain what you've done to it.
There were reports that he sometimes needed help in going up and down the stairs, but was fine on stage. This has led me to strongly suspect he has a similar condition as me, in that the Sciatic nerve kicks up...and that one or two of his discs are herniated, and they just finally went so far, that he needed DISC REPLACEMENT. The only place in the world to do that properly, is indeed, in Germany: You are not allowed to view links.

I've been looking into this for myself. He's had similar issues as me - but also quite stubborn.
Personally, I believe that Michael was taken by car to Cedars - then the dummy to UCLA. It made the tour unmanageable. He didn't want to disappoint the fans, but he had to do something quick.
Perhaps he went, but my opinion? Someone dressed as him went. The photos were shot at another time - notice, no one else is around?
Also at the Memorial, something else caught my eyes: Paris fiddling with her purse, and her
spy camera glasses. I do believe she was wearing an
ear piece we use on stage while singing, and had the
battery pack in her purse. I think it wasn't working correctly, and she was messing with it.

When everyone moved towards her, I want you to take a very, very close look at Prince: He's smiling, giving her a hug for a well done performance. She cried on command, but couldn't hear what Michael was telling her to say.
As far as I know, I'm the only person who's caught the
Spy Glasses on Paris, so Michael could see the audience from her angle.
