CNN has obtained video of Michael Jackson rehearsing two days before his death.

It's a little eerie to watch a seemingly healthy Jackson on June 23, working with dancers and his band at Staples Center in Los Angeles. He runs through part of the song "They Don't Care About Us," including a series of dance movies, while an off-camera producer occasionally shouts a few instructions (including a final "Hold for applause" as the song ends).

Jackson was preparing to embark on a series of 50 concerts in London at the time of his death on June 25. The footage on CNN comes from AEG Live, the concert promoter that was presenting the performances.
