Was she in the last incarnation of Michael Jackson's band? That final rehearsal video features a blonde player who resembles her, but seems different--anyone know?

(her web site references none of this last footage/tour anything - watching it again, it's almost clearly not her--was she replaced wit ha lookalike/soundalike?

i thought it was her but i did not know that she also sang?

I was wondering who that girl was - I liked her voice.

By accident (i could care less for Wacko Jacko and either of his tours) i read this:
Since the final Michael Jackson "This Is It" rehearsal videos have been released, people have been talking about the female guitarist featured alongside Jackson. Her name is Orianthi Panagaris, and she's barely 24 years old.

i think it is an Aussie chick

It`s JB for sure. She had vocal-parts when she was on tour with the other JB (Jeff Beck).

Is she the one that was in the backing band when Carrie Underwood performed at one of the award shows earlier in the year? I remember a blonde shredding it up and practically stealing the show (or at least Carrie's song).

gimme shelter - ding ding ding - looks like you got it right

THANKS

wonder if Batten was shafted or if she quit?
