Michael Jackson's Legend Seems To Live On

We all remember the 5 year old sensation; lead vocalist of his brothers' singing group, The Jackson 5, warming himself into every American soul. Then the album, 'thriller', literally sweeping us off our feet, what with the excellent voice and divine dance moves. The king of pop later sold billions of records and signed lucrative promotional deals with Pepsi and AOL, making him one of the richest billionaires in the world and one of the most influential entertainers the world over. In fact his famous white hand gloves would easily be sold for a whooping one million!

Then, boom! It all tumbled down like a pack of cards. It began with plastic surgery; a nose job to a new chin to a scary looking jaw. Someone in fact, said that he eventually resembled a ghoul that makes mother's children cry. The last straw was the child molestation charge that lowered his fan base, heightened hate mails and cancelled the promotional deals.

The album 'invisible' sold only 2 million copies prompting him to term Sony as racists and lazy allegedly for not promoting the album well.

Court cases coupled with bankruptcy ripples followed suit. One such case was the $21 million suit filed by his long time promoter Marcel Avram for reneging on a new year concert contract, a concert that 'Wacky Jacko' said he thought were cancelled and was therefore at home watching TV. The most recent is the case filed by a prince of Oman who accused Jackson of defaulting on a recording deal to which the prince had paid a million dollars. This was later settled out of court.

As if his woes were not enough, his third wife Lisa Marie Presley, daughter of the legendary Elvis Presley, divorced him in the midst of the molestation charge accusing him of manipulatively using her.

Eminent sale or worse, auction, of the multi million ranch, Neverland; debts accruing to million of dollars are just some of the depressing issues that beset the king.

Signs of his comeback, however, began when in a protracted molestation battle, the court found him innocent of all charges. Soon he was off to Oman where it was said he had gone on vocation at the invite of the King himself.

His nose seems to hold from falling off after a corrective surgery done by the German plastic surgeon Werner Mang. His breathing also seems to have caught up.

But, the greatest news of all is that the King of Pop, the musician per excellence recently launched a comeback music concert! The concert held in London elicited mixed reactions amongst critics and fans alike, but, trudging along the streets and his hotel in London his fan base remained undisputed. Not even the Queen elicits so much excitement as Michael Jackson garnered. Everywhere he went screams of ladies and gentlemen with portable digital cameras were heard.

Tickets were completely sold in the fastest ever selling time in London. Now who can ever do this if not a king whose legend still lives on, Michael Jackson.
