WASHINGTON -- Colin Powell says Michael Jackson had controversy in his life, but in death his art should be celebrated.

"So he's not quite of my generation but his art spanned three generations and is worthy of all the tribute that he is receiving for his art," Powell said in a television interview set to air Sunday.
