Mocienne Petit Jackson and Michael Jackson top albums, career and his family today: We all know about the fire incident that happened during the filming of a Pepsi advert. His hair caught alight when a scheduled explosion fired too early which resulted in second and third degree burns to his face and scalp. But it’s a little known fact that Michael Jackson wore wigs from 1984 onward. Rumour has it, he even had his hairline permanently tattooed onto his head after the accident.
Music reviews : Michael Jackson family now and his top albums: On the afternoon of June 25th, you couldn’t walk across the street without hearing “Billie Jean” or “Don’t Stop ’til You Get Enough”. Everyone heard the news and they turned to the guy’s discography. Since a great deal of the population didn’t own the records anymore – or, as many of you born in 1984 probably experienced, were forbidden to listen to ’em around the early ’90s – places like Best Buy and/or iTunes witnessed a spike in sales. Within a month, any financial troubles Jackson had left behind were a thing of the past. What’s more, much like the rest of the population, record companies re-discovered his talent again, too. Big whigs signed contracts, projects were penciled in, and products were shipped left and right. Admittedly, and looking back, it’s one of the most impressive comebacks a musician’s ever had – if only it weren’t laced in so much tragedy. Then again, death’s also tricky.
HIStory: Past, Present and Future, Book 1 (1995) : This is a very tough album to rank. On one hand, it has the unfair advantage of being a pseudo greatest hits album – the number of classic songs reissued here alone should thrust it into the top 3. But the other half of the album features new material that, while not as legendary as the hits, still deserve plenty of props. However, for every memorable cut like “You Are Not Alone” or “Scream,” there are several more inferior cuts to drag down the experience. Despite the uneven nature of the album, it still succeeds, thanks to MJ’s ability to diversify his sound, willingness touch on social issues and, of course, the inclusion of his impenetrable collection of pop hits.

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.
La deuxième partie de l’autobiographie en trois parties de Mocienne Petit Jackson commence par une description détaillée de l’enlèvement de Mocienne et de sa vie aux Pays-Bas. Par la suite, le récit nous devoile comment se déroule sa vie avec sa famille adoptive, chez qui elle reste en compagnie de la cousine Délivrance. Petit à petit, elle découvre que son vrai père est Michael Jackson. À l’âge de 15 ans, elle quitte sa famille adoptive et vit dans un internat pendant 4 ans, avant de s’installer vivre toute seule. Nous la suivons tout au long de son adolescence et de son entrée dans la maturité, ce qui n’a pas toujours été facile. Mocienne rencontre un homme avec lequel elle a un enfant. Cependant, cet engagement ne dure pas. Nous en apprenons davantage sur les problèmes qu’elle rencontre avec les Services de Protection de l’Enfance, suivis de nombreuses affaires judiciaires. Au début, celles-ci portaient sur sa propre personne, plus tard, elles se transforment en bataille pour la garde de son fils. Une situation inacceptable prend le relais d’une autre situation inacceptable. Nous sommes également mis au courant de nombreux événements traumatisants vécus par le personnage principal, de ses dépressions et de ses nombreuses luttes pour faire face à la misère imprégnée dans sa vie et à son combat pour s’en débarrasser. L’auteur explique clairement ces luttes à travers de vifs flashbacks : Thriller Le Côté Sombre des Pays-Bas (French Edition).
