Born on August 29, 1958 in Gary, Indiana (United States), Michael Joseph Jackson was the seventh of the nine children of Joseph and Katherine Jackson. He began his career as just an 11-year-old boy with his brothers in the Jackson Five, with whom he released hit songs like I Want You Back or ABC. However, already at the age of five he had shown an incredible talent for the song in a Christmas function of the school. The pressure of sales, fame, disputes with his brothers, fellow travelers in the Jackson Five, all formed an indissoluble part of a childhood that culminated when he was already considered a world star at the age of twelve. As anecdotal data of what were the Jackson Five, and then he alone, some chilling sales figures that many consecrated musicians already wanted for themselves: the five Jackson brothers sold, while they performed together under the patronage of Diana Ross, more than one hundred million copies
World fame came to him with his solo career, which began in 1979 with the album Off The Wall, which included hits like Don't Stop 'Til You Get Enough and Rock With You. His second album, Thriller, from 1982, is the best selling record in history. His later works - Bad (1987), Dangerous (1991) and History (1995) - also reached millions of sales worldwide.
With a unique style and personality, Michael Jackson is an icon in the history of music that has influenced many artists of later generations. Enigmatic, ambiguous, mysterious with his great hobbies and touches of generosity, Jackson won 13 Grammy Awards and sold about 750 million records. He also stood out for his solidarity work, helping many charitable causes through its foundation, especially those related to children. Fame brought him the adoration of the public and his style, always original and groundbreaking (he has become obsessed with cosmetic surgery), set a trend, while Neverland, his huge ranch, became a symbol and place of pilgrimage of his faithful fans, just like Graceland it was for Elvis followers.
But more than his professional life, since the 90s it was his personal life that made the headlines because of his eccentric lifestyle. His figure was involved in the scandal after being charged twice with child abuse: the first, in 1993, for which he was not tried due to lack of evidence; and the second, in 2005, for which he was tried and acquitted. Since then his life has revolved around the controversy and in 2008 he definitely lost his Neverland ranch for not being able to face debts of more than 20 million euros.
In 1993, Jackson secretly married in the Dominican Republic with Lisa Marie Presley, the only daughter of Elvis Presley. This link caused public opinion to be divided into two: that of those who saw in the union an advertising maneuver to get Michael to be the usual star again; and that of his followers who found in this marriage a beautiful love story that linked the king of pop with the king of rock. The couple broke up two years later in friendly terms. In 1997, the singer remarried, this time with nurse Deborah Jeanne Rowe, with whom she had her two oldest children: Michael Joseph Jackson, Jr. (also called "Prince"), and Paris Michael Katherine Jackson. They divorced in 1999, and Rowe granted Jackson full custody of the children. His third son, Prince Michael Jackson II, was born in 2002 without the artist revealing the identity of the child's mother, although it was said that he had used a surrogate mother.
At the end of 2008, and after many media speculated on the possibility that Michael Jackson suffered a disease of genetic origin and urgently needed a lung transplant, the official spokesman for the artist sent a statement in which he strongly denied such information. Rumors about his state of health were continuous during 2008 and early 2009 (it was said that he had a bacterium that was destroying his skin and lung cancer), however, representatives and responsible for his last This It Is tour, which never It came to be celebrated due to his sudden death, denied each of them. But his eccentricities and public appearances, although rare, continued to raise comments.
However, the sudden announcement of a farewell tour made Michael shut up many mouths. After several bumps in his career, in 2009, the king of pop promised, in a massive press conference, to return with force. With the same one with which he wielded a microphone when he barely got off the ground. Michael announced that he was preparing a tour of about 50 concerts at the O2 Arena in London, where he planned to say goodbye to the top of the stage playing the songs his fans wanted.
