Reflecting on his admiration for the late icon, Bublé recounted his own journey of emulating Jackson’s distinctive style, from donning the iconic white glove and sparkly socks to sporting the leather jacket that became synonymous with Jackson’s persona. This lifelong idolization of Jackson continues to shape Bublé’s artistic expression to this very day.
With the stage perfectly set, Bublé launched into an electrifying rendition of Jackson’s classic hit, “Billie Jean.” Not only did he flawlessly deliver the song with precision and vocal prowess, but he also incorporated some of Jackson’s trademark dance moves, further enhancing the authenticity of his impersonation.
