Costumes to Honor Two Passing Stars

Often Jackson was referred to as the “King of Pop.” June 25th, 2009 it was announced the Michael Jackson died of a heart attack after being rushed to the hospital and ending up in a coma. His most popular album has always been Thriller.
His career was one that reached new heights like having the strongest crossover in the 1980’s as an African American entertainer. Michael Jackson began his career at eleven when he was part of the Jackson 5. Much of his music was hip hop, poop, and contemporary R&B. He was most well known for his moonwalk and the robot. All during the eighties the moonwalk was constantly talked about and used by others in honor of Jackson’s talents. On stage he always had on one white glove during the earlier 80’s. Many of his onstage costumes were glittery dazzling the crowds. The most well known Michael Jackson costume is the one where he wore tight black pants, white socks, black shoes, a white shirt, and a red leather jacket. Of course the white glove and sunshades were also part of the stage appearance.
