Michael Jackson

 

When I made the decision to write this lens on Michael Jackson, I honestly didn't know where to start. I wondered how I would possibly be able to cover the life of such a unique person; a musical icon. A man so talented that he is a legend in his own time.

Regardless of your feelings towards Michael and your opinions of his personal life, you cannot deny the fact that his talent and achievements are exceptional.

No other performer in history has won more awards than Michael Jackson and he is considered THE most successful entertainer of all time. He tops a prestigious list of musical legends. 1.) Michael Jackson 2.) Elvis 3.) The Beatles 4.) Frank Sinatra. That's impressive!

Michael Jackson will always be sort of a mystery to us. We may catch a glimpse of him in an interview or on stage, but the true Michael, well, that is someone we may never really know or understand. Perhaps that is part of what makes him so intriguing.

"I wish we could all spend some time in his world," Steven Spielberg once said of his friend.

While this lens will touch on some aspects of Michael's personal life, the main purpose of this page is to celebrate the body of work and achievements of a musical genius.

If you are a Michael Jackson fan, this is a must see video!

Michael Jackson Will You Be There

A video I made a long time ago when I first started editing on the computer.....it includes clips of MJ Videos and clips from The Oprah interview Live from Neverland...The song "Will You be there" from Michael Jackson's Dangerous album UPDATE: I recently looked back in my files and discovered some information about this video. I created this video when I was only 13 years old and graduating from Junior High School...Man time Flies...It's even more interesting because this video was first uploaded on Youtube much later on a Dial-Up Connection! When I first uploaded the video I had no Idea it would be viewed as much as it has and I didn't know it would touch people's hearts. Thanks to everyone who has watched this video and enjoyed it! Every bit of your love for Michael is appreciated. -Cece-MJFan4Life www.myspace.com/mjfan4life

    Michael Jackson and Vitiligo 

    michael jackson vitiligo

    Michael Jackson revealed himself as a vitiligo sufferer during his interview with Oprah in 1993.

    Vitiligo is a chronic skin condition that causes loss of pigment, resulting in irregular pale patches of skin. It is a very rare disease affecting only 1%-2% of people worldwide.

    There are still people that don't believe Michael's story and insist that he bleached his skin because he wanted to be white.

    Michael Jackson - "Scream" 1995

    Tired of injustice
    Tired of the schemes
    Kinda disgusted
    So what does it mean
    Kicking me down
    I got to get up
    As jacked as it sounds
    The whole system sucks

    Somebody please have mercy 'cause I just can't take it
    Stop pressurin' me
    Just stop pressurin' me
    Stop pressurin' me
    Make me wanna scream
