The rehearsal footage of Michael Jackson’s “This Is It” that was turned into a feature film made its debut last night in Los Angeles at the Nokia Theater and the celebs were in full force.

Among them were Neil Patrick Harris, Paula Abdul, Paris Hilton, Adam Lambert, Katy Perry, Vivica Fox, some of the Jackson family, Jennifer Love Hewitt, Jamie Kennedy, and more. LaToya Jackson opted to not see the movie, because she claimed that the movie is not something Michael would have wanted.

Tito Jackson told Larry King that while he walked the red carpet, that he didn’t actually watch the movie, for personal reasons. He said, “I’m not going to be able to view this movie tonight, like other members of my family, who didn’t attend today, because it is emotional and I think I will be better watching it at a time when I’m more comfortable with it.”

Roger Ebert reviewed the film and said that he saw no trace of the medications that Michael was taking in his performance, and he was analyzing for any effects, but saw none. Read his full review here.
