Jacksons hometown plans to celebrate his birthday AP

GARY, Ind. Michael Jacksons hometown in Indiana is planning another tribute to the King of Pop just two months after marking the one-year anniversary of his death.

A news release issued by the city says a tribute will be held outside Jacksons boyhood home in Gary on Saturday, a day before what would have been his 52nd birthday.

Gary Mayor Rudy Clay says the city is honoring Jacksons memory as a great and giving person and as the worlds greatest entertainer. The Jackson Family moved out of the city after the Jackson 5 struck it big in 1969.

Organizers say the event Saturday will include local entertainers and a Michael Jackson impersonator.

Jackson died last year in Los Angeles of an overdose of sedatives.
