About Billie Jean

"Billie Jean" is perhaps one of pop/R&B singer Michael Jackson's most famous songs of all time. Released in 1982, the Michael Jackson-penned "Billie Jean" was produced by Quincy Jones and was mixed 91 times in the studio before Jones approved the song to be included on Jackson's Thriller album. The song is based on a real-life experience by Jackson involving an obsessed female fan claiming that MJ fathered one of her twins and included the famous chorus: "She claims that I am the one / But the kid is not my son." "Billie Jean" has been sampled by numerous artists and contains a prominent bassline that give the song its distinctive sound.

Dressing up as Billie Jean

You'll be beating the groupies off with a stick and having all the honeys running after with paternity tests dressed up in this Michael Jackson "Billie Jean" costume modeled after MJ's garb from the classic video! The costume includes a black tuxedo-style jacket covered in glimmering black sequins; a deep, gunmetal grey button-down shirt covered in dark sequins; black pants with a tonal satin, tuxedo stripe down the side; and of course, MJ's silver sequinned glove and a pair of matching sequinned socks! Put on a vintage, jheri-curled style Michael Jackson wig and a pair of black loafers and brush up on your moonwalk skills to be "the one."
