king jackson on 52nd grammy

Michael Jackson's two oldest children took the Grammy stage Sunday night to accept their father's lifetime achievement award.

"We are proud to be here to accept this award on behalf of our father," 12-year-old Prince Michael said at the 52nd annual Grammy Awards.

He then thanked "God for watching over us these last seven months and our grandmother and grandfather for their love and support."

Prince Michael also spoke about his father's concern for Earth's environment.

"To all his songs, his message was simple, love," Prince Michael said. "We will continue to spread his message and help the world."

"We love you daddy," he said.

Paris, 11, then spoke: "Daddy was suppose to be here. Daddy was going to perform last year. Thank you. We love you daddy."

Prince Michael and Paris, along with several cousins, wore black suits with red stripes on their pants and red armbands.

The children appeared after a rousing performance of Michael Jackson's "Earth Song," with a recording of Jackson accompanied by live performances from Celine Dion, Usher, Carrie Underwood, Smokey Robinson and Jennifer Hudson.
