Michael Jackson
To this day, there is no one quite like Michael Jackson. He got his start by performing with his brothers in The Jackson 5. People noticed his talent from the very beginning. However, he made it even bigger when he went solo. He struggled with a secret drug addiction and passed away in 2009 at only 50 years old. His kids are now on their way to making names for themselves. Paris, his daughter, is now a model. Meanwhile, his son Prince has launched a charity foundation for kids.
Michael Jackson And His Dad
Joe Jackson had a difficult relationship with most of his kids. He beat them up and admitted to this when he was interviewed by Oprah. He made the kids work hard, especially back when the Jackson 5 was starting out. He basically stripped the boys of their childhood. There is a theory that this is why Michael Jackson was so fascinated by Peter Pan and “never growing up.” Although some find it odd, people understand that he is “weird” because of the abuse he experienced as a child.
