Rude like how - what happened - What was the best thing you saw?

Apparently your not allowed to take pictures but no-one told us that. So my two friends took about two pictures on their phones and one of the guys came running in speaking like crap to my friends in front of everyone in there, demanding they delete the pictures, as he stood their looking through their phones questionning every picture and threatning to throw them out. My friends just said no-one told us otherwise we wouldn't of done it and he just said, "Well I'm tellin ya now arent I?" idiot.

The best thing..? I dunno tbh, that man kinda ruined it for me. Some of the costumes looked fake. Maybe they were supposed to be but I was led on to believe they were real. The RTT outfit was there but was all the wrong colours and had things on it that Michael never wore. Or huge zippers on outfits that were never there. Saying that though the BAD tour outfit and Dangerous seemed genuine. I did like near the end they have books were you can leave messages about how you feel and they were lovely. Some kid who was 9 wrote in it, "Your the best person in the world and I love you."

Oooh, it's on until Jan 31st? There's still a chance of me being able to go then!

I went and I loved it! The staff were nice to me and they actually let me in half an hour early. I went on the day it opened. Unfortunately we weren't allowed to take pictures which I think sucks but I did enjoy it. It was rather pricey...but to see real MJ artefacts is just amazing. I LOVED his Rolls Royce...it looked beautiful inside.

I went to the exhibition on Monday and was surprised how good it was !
I really enjoyed it !
I loved seeing some of the costumes close up like that, especially the ones for This Is It.
They showed the full Thriller TII Video too, and had a giant spider and stuff, plus a stage design for TII, which looked awesome.
May not have been worth the money (I got slightly cheaper tickets off ebay

), but I thought it was great, and recommend any MJ fan in London to go see it before it ends.

I couldn't bring myself to leave a message in the books at the end though.
I had a quick flick through and saw some lovely messages, but it just made me really upset.
Might leave a message when I go again for the Fan Day at the O2 in a couple of weeks (if i can think of somethin to write)

I went to see it a week before Christmas cause I was in London for a couple of days and the exhibtion was one reason for the journey from Germany.

I truly enjoyed it and thought it was very lovingly put together and I don't thing it was too expensive. Of course I was disappointed because you couldn't take any pictures. Therefore I bought the programme. The only think that annoyed me about that was that the costumes of TII weren't included cause I thought they were awsome.

I've now been for the second time, things had changed and somethings had been moved. Like the flask at the very end which read something like "Michael's children would prepare him a snack in this container."

Second time round, two blue plastic tubs have been added - thus "...in this container." doesn't make a lot of sense to me, and makes me doubt its validity.

I went there on January 2nd... what was best? The 'Ghosts' shirt! When I saw it, I was like, "ohmygodohmygodohmygod, it's the SHIRT!" I stared it for a good five minutes, and I was really tempted to touch it... but I didn't, there were security guards really close

Then, at the end there were these books, where you could leave your messages/signatures to the Jackson Family. I saw my mom (who was not a fan, quite the opposite nowadays) leave a comment: "There are no words..." O.o Michael really touched everyone, it seems.
I saw quite a lot of children, by the way... they were so sweet, talking about his outfits an' all.
