    Michael Jackson,1958-2009: A style retrospective

    Michael Jackson, singer, performer, eccentric, and American icon died in his Los Angeles home on Thursday after reportedly suffering from cardiac arrest. He was just 50 years old. In recent years, many of us had a complicated relationship with Jackson, but none could deny his massive talent or the impact he had on the entertainment community, worldwide. He was a musical visionary, creative in every aspect of his life--including his clothes. His outlandish, unique sequined style has influenced decades of designers, including many of the retro-'80s fashions we see on runways today. Despite the scandals of recent years, we honestly can't imagine our childhoods without him. Above, a style tribute to the King of Pop.

      Yes, did you know that because of the extreme "freedom of speech" in the USA, all types of media can be published and produced even if it completely FALSE. The main reason why all of this negative press was put out about Michael is because the publications were making so much MONEY from this, and didn't want it to stop! It's very sad, because he was completely innocent. All he ever wanted to do was give the world his music and his love, and the media KILLED him.

      God said "Let he who has not sinned cast the first stone." and "Judge not and be not judge" All personal opinions are just that, personal opinions!!!! Talents and gifts comes without repentance. The Lord is the giver of all gifts.

      What a waste of talent. He would make a day upbeat when it was low, just listen to the music. His dance was magical. He made his own show. Talent...all talent. Now the critics realize it is gone, and they are sorry. He is at peace now, but his legend lives on.

      I LIKE THE WAY HE LOOKED WHEN HE DID HIS BAD TOUR IN 1987. HE STILL LOOKED PRETTY GOOD IN 1991, THO. HE WAS ONE OF A KIND AND NO1 WILL EVER TAKE HIS PLACE!!!! THESE OTHER PERFORMERS DONT EVEN COME CLOSE TO BEING AS TALENTED AS M.J.

      RIP MJ! I never turned my back on him as a fan throughout all his ups and downs. He was a great singer and dancer and helped people out so much. He gave so much to charities and we will never have another entertainer like MJ who gave back like that. May he rest in peace now. You are missed MJ!

      We have lost the greatest entertainer in the world; he sold more albums than any musician. He toped Elvis Presley, The n his daughter. What else cold critics do? But slander him. If he was guilty of the accusations then a court of his peers would have convicted him. Like O.J. they both were innocent in a court of American Law. Don't dance and buy his music then say he's a bad person. You’re the ones who supported him. To this day no one has broken his records of sales. RIP to the King - they can never take that from him.

      MICHAEL I LOVE U!!! GOING TO MISS HAVING NEW MUSIC FROM U. DON'T CARE WHAT THE HATERS SAY. REST IN PEACE. THE JACKSON FAMILY I AM TRULY SORRY FOR YOUR LOST. GOD BLESSED

      You know the shame comes when we as people especially Christians Worship a man instead of simply celebrating his life and the gifts that God has given him, or we hate a man for who he is or what he has done. But when we learn to worship God and pray for man and help each other this world will turn around. God will heal the land. I don't believe Micheal enjoyed his life that is why he kept making all those changes. And I know that people are hurting be it thier past or present lifestyle or circumstances and if healing does not take place. We get Mike and people not wanting to be the man in the mirror. We christian have to step up and represent Christ and his kingdom correctly and truthfully. IT IS TIME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! God is not a man and He won't lie. Let's put our trust in what is real. And God is real if you don't believe me try him. SAN

      He was an amazing singer and dancer! i love him. I love Thriller! It sucks that he's dead. He was going to be on a "comeback tour" in 2 weeks. It's amazing.

      PS to all the people who are "condeming" MJ to hell.... who are you to condemn or judge someone into hell? you are merely GOD's creation, NOT GOD himself. how about you let MJ and GOD deal with it, and get off your high and mighty horse. how do you think you be judged when its time to meet your maker?
    • adedejia  •  2 years 11 months ago
      REST IN PEACE MICHAEL , NO MATTER WHAT PEOPLE SAY, SO NO ONE IS PERFECT IN THIS CRAZY WORLD , MAY YOUR SOUL REST IN PERFECT PEACE AGAIN ... WE LOVE YOU BUT THE LORD LOVE YOU MORE THAN WE DO

      all I can say is Michael Jackson will undoubtedly be missed by this chick. I grew up listening 2 him and no matter what critics he had, he will alwayz be an imcomparable music and style icon. only God can judge him, so you lame-o's (yes u, dianne) can shut up.)
