Fame rising.

In 1967, The Jackson 5 later recorded mores songs. Their songs topped the charts of the Billboard Hot 100, including the songs that are one of my personal favorites, ABC, and I'll be there. The Rolling Stone magazine described Michael as a child prodigy, that had overwhelming musical gifts. Then, of course Michael became the main attraction and was made lead singer of The Jackson 5. In June 1975, they signed a new contract with CBS Records, and later with Epic Records. They renamed themselves the Jacksons for some reason I do not know of, and released 6 more albums. Michael was still lead vocals and lead songwriter. He continued to make magic through writing major hits, like Shake Your Body (to the ground), and This Place Hotel. In 1978, Michael decided to take his career to another level and go towards musical theater. He starred as the scarecrow in a box office disaster The Wiz. There, he met up with Quincy Jones. Jones produced Michael's solo album called Off the Wall. In 1979, during one of his dance routine practices Jackson broke his nose. He took action, a very bad one, and had gotten rhinoplasty. In case you guys dont know what a rhinoplasty is, a rhinoplasty is basically, where you under go surgery to "shape" your nose. The first one was a failure. He complained to his doctor that, he had difficulting breathing and that it would effect his career. He went to another doctor with the name Steve Hoefflin. He performed his second surgery and many others throughout his life. Jones and him produced his album Off The Walls together and mentioned like Little Richard had a HUGE influence on him. The album included songs written by Stevie Wonder and Paul McCartney from the Beatles. It reached number three on the Billboard 200 and sold over 20 MILLION copies worldwide. What a beast.

Childhoood of Mike.

Hello, My name is Nicole.

I am a person who loves to laugh and hang out with friends. Just like everyone else. I chose this topic because I like hearing about scandals and outrageous things stars do, in order to receive attention. Everybody has heard at one point in there life time, the man named Michael Jackson. The man with the fake nose, and the man who rapes little boys. Most people don't know the truth about these things and why he did many things that he did. I was interested in all the rumors going on about Michael's death. When I found out he was dead, I completely flipped out. First, it was known as a drug overdose, so basically he committed suicide. Then,it was said that he had some organ failure. THEN, people were saying that his doctor prescribed him more pills than he needed so then it was a murder. The world will find out eventually. My blog will work by me writing about his life and how I interpret his decisions and why I think he made them. I am a defender of Michael Jackson and will forever more stay a fan of the King of Pop.

Michel Jackson was born on August 29, 1958 in Gary, Indiana. His parents got to work and had ten children. He was number eight. At a very young age him and his father did not get along. his fathers name was Joe. I'm guessing most people don't know this because he is still constantly made fun of because of his nose, but Mike was physically and mentally abused by his father. He was whipped with a belt, and was called names like big nose and fat nose by his father. He was always dissatisfied with his looks because of the low self confidence his father, Joe, had given him. Jerk. His father was a maniac who only used his children in order to receive fame and money. Mostly money, I think. One night while Michael was sleeping, Joe climbed through his window, wearing a freight mask and screamed. He did this to teach him a "lesson" to not to run away. Ever since then Mike has had nightmares on being kidnapped and had chronic sleep problems. In 1993 he spoke openly about his childhood and his father on the Oprah Winfrey Show. He had said to be lonely as a child and hated his father with passion. Enough to puke at the sight of him. Reasonable, I would think. Other than that, Michael admitted to the opinion of his father being a so called, "genius" because he played a huge role in his success in earning fame, because of his strict being. H e first showed his talents in a classroom. In 1964, Mike and his brothers joined a band named the Jackson Brothers. Michael and Jermaine were made lead vocals and changed their band name from the Jackson Brothers to the hit sensation the Jackson 5.
