Winnie and Doo in Monaco for The World Music Awards May 96
After having seen Michael in real for the first time , we decided to go and see him as
much as we could. The first occasion had been the World Music Awards in Monaco in
May 96.
We were at school and young so we get lucky when we learnt that the ceremony was on
a day without school! We asked Doodoo's brother to bring us to Monaco by car.The
problem was that we could only stay 1 day but it was better than nothing. We had our
tickets for the show and we arrived in Monaco at 9 am. We knew no fans and nothing
about Michael . So we arrived at the Hotel de Paris and waited. After seeing Michael in
my hallucinations 100 times, he finally came out of the hotel! We couldn't believe our
eyes!
Nothing happened because we didn't know that we could follow him or anything. We
learnt so much after that the day before , he met so many fans in the shops ect...
We arrived at the ceremony after having seeing Michael coming back to the hotel after
the rehearsals. We had back places but the room was not so big. Michael arrived and me
screamed so loud!!! We were able to see Michael during all the show cause he was sitting
at first row. The fans were screaming so loud during all the show that the others stars
were always looking at us!
Then it was Michael time to perform! He sang Earth song and it was so great! He sang A
cappella for a while and we couldn't believe our ears!!! It was phenomenal! When he
finished, something was wrong..no one was moving and 5 mn after a voice told us that
Michael will perform again. Then we were told that Michael wanted his fans in frontof
the stage. We calmy went in front of the stage and we thought that it was impossible that
we could stay here cause we had our arms on the stage! But Michael arrived and sang just
in front of us! It was amazing to see him doing his moonwalk so close to us! At the end
Michael shade a tear and I was able to see it falling on this check...It was THE
experience!
During the show ,some stars were going on stage so the managers of the show asked us to
sit where nobody was.So we went sitting at Jermaine's place and the secod time, we were
at second row and Doodoo told me :"look who is behind!" It was Bob Jones! We were
sitting in front of Bob Jones! lol!
When Diana Ross sang, she went on Michael's knees and kissed him on the lips! Then we
called Michael and he turn back and waved at us! It was nothing but it was the first time
he really saw us and we were so happy!
