A hologram that looked like king of pop Michael Jackson performed the new hit of his posthumous album 'Xscape' at the Billboard Music Awards.

The late musician's hologram performed 'Slave to the Rhythm' from his recently released album and did his famous moonwalk in front of a star-studded Las Vegas audience yesterday at the award ceremony, reported New York Daily News.

The performance began with a synchronised dancing until a curtain dropped and the hologram was seen sitting in a leopard-print throne.

Soon the figure was in the spotlight with his power-packed singing.

At the end of the performance, the crowd gave the performance a standing ovation.
 

Jackson died in 2009 following drug overdose.
