He was introduced as “The King of Pop, the King of Rock and the King of Soul” to a rapturous audience. Wearing a black suit embellished with crystals, he accepted the award graciously and with some emotion.
He said :-
“I’m honoured to be in Japan again, and I’m very happy to be among the Japanese people because I love them very much. Thank you for your loyalty. I’d like to say to the Japanese people from the bottom of my heart that I love you very much.”
On receiving the award he said, “I thank the fans around the world and I thank the fans in Japan. I promised myself that I wouldn’t be emotional when I got up here. I think you are very sweet, generous and kind people. I thank all the people who believe in me. I believe in you. I thank my children, Prince, Paris and Blanket who have been there for me. I love them very much.”
Responding to the audience he said “I love you” and “I love you more”.
