Mexican actress Ana Martin is honoring the upcoming anniversary of Michael Jackson's death with a social media initiative. She urged her followers, whom she affectionately calls "gotitas de miel" (little drops of honey), to use the song "Heal the World" on their platforms on June 25, the anniversary of the pop icon's passing.

Martin shared her proposal along with photos of herself wearing a Michael Jackson t-shirt and a hat she acquired during one of his tours in the early 1990s. She expressed a deep admiration for the "King of Pop," which began decades ago. As a self-proclaimed "rocker," Martin also appreciates other pop figures but feels a particular connection to Jackson.

She revealed in a past interview that she identifies with Jackson due to their solitary childhoods. Jackson worked from a young age without the chance to socialize with peers, while Martin spent time as a boarder in the United States, away from her family. Her fans responded positively to her tribute, with some expressing surprise at her long-standing fandom.
