Voice over : Well, I tell you what guys, I’ve been doing this along and I’ve just really never seen anything like the chaotic scene outside the the Virgin MegaStore across the street. Sheer pandomonium to say the least, and for ONE reason only.. The King of Pop is here – the biggest selling artist in the history of music. TRL Welcomes Michael Jackson. As you see Michael saying hello to New York city, and just unbelievable, the scene. He’s in great spirits, I had a chance to say “hi” to him moments ago – All smiles, excited about the release of Invincible but even more so to be here in New York City that just loves Michael Jackson. Especially now, it’s a great time for him to be out here, exactly what the city needs. Invincible is the record, it is out and I’m gonna have a chance to talk with Michael in just a little bit, as he is in a media frenzy right now. It’s just amazing to be this close, the man is unbelievable. We’ll chat with him in a second ..
