Happy birthday to the legendary Michael Jackson, who would’ve turned 68 today.
From his early Jackson 5 days to his ‘Thriller’ dominance, the icon cemented his permanent place as the King Of Pop. His legacy boasts unparalleled success with one of the best-selling catalogs ever and pop culture moments that will stand the test of time. Earlier this year, his biopic became the highest-grossing of all time, with plans for a sequel to follow.

A funny story and a rare photo: As #MichaelMovie continues to heat up at the box office, Taiwan actress Ikeya Chen, daughter of veteran actor Bok Jing Chan, shared a 30-year-old photo on social media after watching the film. The photo shows her with Michael Jackson, and the post has since gone viral. #MichaelJackson In the photo, a 10-year-old Ikeya is seen wearing traditional Chinese costume, standing close to Michael. "This isn't AI-generated. That child in the photo was me. I can't believe I performed a folk dance for him when I was little." Ikeya also revealed that her older sister was a die-hard MJ fan who specially styled her hair differently from everyone else that day, but her sister was not allowed to go inside with her to meet Michael. "After I finished my performance, MJ called me over. He touched the hair my sister had styled. His aura and manner were incredibly gentle." The only thing she remembers is coming out and telling her sister about it. To her surprise, her sister immediately slapped her. "This is what crazy, uncontrollable fans do? Whenever we bring this up now, we laugh like crazy. Why on earth did she just slap me like that?!"

“Beat It” is one of Michael Jackson’s biggest hits from his album, Thriller (1982).
Michael wrote and composed it himself. Quincy Jones asked him for a rock-sounding track to broaden his audience, and Jackson already had a demo ready. The lyrics send a clear message against violence: it’s better to stay out of fights than to try to be “the toughest.”
The legendary moment is the guitar solo, played by Eddie Van Halen for free, as a favor. Eddie showed up, changed the song’s structure, and recorded it in two takes. That solo opened the song up to a rock audience.
The music video, directed by Bob Giraldi, cost $150,000, which Michael paid out of his own pocket. It was filmed in Skid Row (Los Angeles) with real gang members. It shows two rival gangs on the verge of fighting who, thanks to Michael, end up dancing in an epic choreography. The message: resolve conflicts with peace and dance, not with violence.
Released in 1983, it reached #1, won two Grammys, and helped make Thriller the best-selling album of all time. It broke barriers on MTV and remains an anthem against violence.

There aren't many stars bigger than Kanye West ... but, when you put Michael Jackson in a music video, the 'Smooth Criminal' is bound to steal some attention!

I’m so sick of all this “Michael Jackson died 500 million in debt” nonsense.
Michael Jackson gave over that same amount to charity.
So here's a better headline…
“Michael Jackson donated over 500 Million dollars to charity during his life. And some estimates say that number is still low and closer to a Billion.”
---------------------------------
I will not allow them to try and paint my uncle as this financial failure who died in debt. That’s their narrative. I will always paint him in the correct light.
A charitable man who believed in giving away more money than he earned and who died still owning music publishing assets worth over 2 Billion dollars (and that’s a low estimate).

"A estas alturas, su nombre es sinónimo de superestrella". Tengo esa frase grabada a fuego desde los 12 años. Este documental marcó toda mi adolescencia. Me lo dejó un amigo de clase, y creo que nunca se lo llegué a devolver...
