Short story:

A glittery jacket once worn onstage by Michael Jackson sells for $19,000 at an auction in the Hard Rock Cafe in Las Vegas, Nevada, USA. Jackson's MTV music award for the song We Are the World pulls $16,000, while gold discs for his album Off The Wall and the Jackson 5 single I Want You Back each get $11,000. The total raised from the sale of Jackson-related artefacts at the auction is reported variously as being $1m and $2m.
