Making one of his first public appearances in nine years, the late Michael Jackson took to the stage in a 2006 tribute to him at the World Music Awards.
Beyonce presented the King of Pop with the Diamond Award -- an award given to artists who have sold over 100 million albums. The event also marked the 25th anniversary of Michael's landmark album, Thriller.
The tribute included a performance by Chris Brown.
