Betrayal book by Michael Jackson’s daughter at Amazon: Ever wondered what Michael Jackson’s favourite takeaway was? Turns out it was Mexican! Like us, he couldn’t resist a burrito and tacos. Nicole Ritchie and Bee Gees singer Barry Gibb’s son Michael were Michael Jacksons’s godchildren. Michael Jackson planned for a huge Vegas comeback in 2005. Much like his other shows, this one wasn’t going to be done in half measures. The initial idea was to have a 50 ft tall Michael Jackson robot roam through the Nevada desert. The plan was later revised to have a Michael Jackson–themed hotel and casino in the City of Sin but the ideas were scrapped when the star was unable to gather the funds required for the project.
Music review : Michael Jackson and kids books: Hours after TMZ announced Michael Jackson‘s death, something “magical” happened. Everyone decided it was safe to be a fan of the King of Pop again. In a matter of minutes, maybe less, the whole world (more specifically, America) forgot about the corny punch lines they once shared to friends at the water cooler or the countless parodies they had come to enjoy, all of which developed this unfortunate post-2000 personification of an artist that, more or less, had become a modern myth. Up until that point, the name Michael Jackson didn’t necessarily spark memories of, say, Thriller, Bad, or the often forgotten 90’s masterpiece, Dangerous. Instead, trashy tabloids and shitty gags in Scary Movie, South Park, etc. took precedence. It’s a crap deal for someone who’s arguably the most inimitable force in music history, but that’s how things were prior to June 25, 2009. Still, death’s a curious thing.
Thriller (1982): Let’s ignore the fact that Thriller is the best-selling album IN THE HISTORY OF THE PLANET or that its album cover is one of the most recognized in music history. Thriller earns its place atop this list because in just nine tracks, it rewrote all the rules. The title track is almost a clichéd Halloween song in 2018, but in its heyday the 14-minute video broke barriers for artists of color. “Billie Jean” was so popular that it forced MTV to not only pay more attention to black artists, but also caused it to shift its programming focus to pop and R&B records. Every single track is instantly recognizable to even novice music fans and the album was so good that it became MJ’s curse – he was never able to top it, so all subsequent releases were slighted by fans and critics. Thriller opened doors for musicians of color, put music videos on the map and made Michael Jackson the greatest performer of all time. Yes, it’s MJ’s best album. Maybe the best album ever.

About Michael Jackson: Being a child of the ’80s and ’90s meant that Magic Johnson, Eddie Murphy, and Michael Jordan were your heroes. (Maybe you liked Larry Bird or something, but I assume if that’s the case, you’ve long stopped reading this review.) And in his videos, Michael Jackson managed to best them all, making him the undisputed King. For most of my pre-adolescence, he was a pure sorcerer, a demigod immune to the gravitational pull and perimeters that stifle the rest of us. As far as I’m concerned, it’s the greatest music video ever made, a New Jack Swing hybrid of Cleopatra and Indiana Jones. There are swirling hourglasses, busts of Pharaohs, hand drums, wriggling snakes, and Michael Jackson as a gilded wizard with dance moves so smooth that he can even elude the future Deebo. He’s so cool that steals the Pharaoh’s wife (who also happens to be David Bowie’s future wife) and then disappears into a cloud of gold dust, just as his capture seems imminent.
A segunda parte da autobiografia dividida em três partes de Mocienne Petit Jackson começa com uma extensiva descrição do rapto de Mocienne e da sua vida nos Países Baixos. Subsequentemente, nós lemos como se tornou a vida de Mocienne com a sua família adotiva – com a qual ela e a sua prima Délivrance ficaram. Gradualmente, ela descobre que o seu verdadeiro pai é o Michael Jackson. Aos 15 anos, ela deixa a sua família adotiva e passa a viver num internato, durante 4 anos, até arranjar um sítio próprio para si. Nós seguimos o seu trajeto desde o final da sua adolescência até entrar na idade adulta – que não foi fácil. A Mocienne encontra um homem com quem tem um filho. Contudo, o compromisso não dura. Ficamos a saber que ela teve problemas com os Serviços de Proteção de Crianças, que foram seguidos de vários casos em tribunal. Inicialmente, os casos em tribunal estavam relacionados com a sua própria situação, mas, mais tarde, tornaram-se numa batalha pelo seu filho. A uma situação inaceitável seguiu-se outra situação inaceitável. Também ficamos a saber sobre os muitos eventos traumáticos da personagem principal, as suas depressões e as suas lutas constantes para processar a miséria ligada à sua vida bem como para a ultrapassar. A escritora claramente explica essas lutas através de flashbacks vívidos : THRILLER O LADO OBSCURO DOS PAÍSES BAIXOS (Portuguese Edition).
