Michael Jackson History

[/SIZE]1984 - "Weird Al" Yankovic's parody "Eat It" hit #12 in the U.S.

2004 - It was reported that a new allegation of child molestation had arisen against Michael Jackson. The 18-year-old man was reported molested in the late 1980's in Los Angeles. The Los Angeles Police Department began investigating the allegations after receiving a tip from the Los Angeles District Attorney's Office. Jackson's lawyers said that the allegations appeared to be unfounded.

2004 - A California appeals court rejected a request by several news agencies to lift a gag order placed on the parties in the Santa Barbara County child molestation case against Michael Jackson.

MICHAEL JACKSON IN BALMAIN!!!!!!!!!!!

MICHAEL JACKSON IN BALMAIN!!!!!!!!!!!
Now this is what you call ferocity in the highest level. Here's Michael Jackson sporting a Balmain t-shirt from the fall/winter 2009 womenswear collection.
michael_jackson_balmain.jpg


It makes perfect sense considering a lot of Christophe Decarnin's pieces were inspired by him.
During Paris fashion week, The Times UK posted a tweet that Natalie Massenet of Net-a-Porter thinks those Balmain t-shirts are gonna run at £10,000 a piece. Yes. For a t-shirt.
Ah well.
Life is a runway. Every day is a fashion show and the street is your catwalk. If you can't afford the runway piece, get the runway music instead. Christophe & Co. used "Don't Stop Til' You Get Enough" by Michael Jackson at the Balmain show. Enjoy!

here some interesting news..about that T-shirt

That was a great find Rasta. I also noticed the MJ was mentioned in a few other fashion type blogs, because of that tee-shirt.

I'm sure the designer is very pleased.

I'm wondering if the designer sent MJ that tee-shirt. I mean, you can't deny, if MJ wears your product, you are bound to get WORLDWIDE exposure.

Really glad he didn't send the pants :rofl: But I do like the shirt :yes:
 
Was about to post about the shirt lol
Here's what Grazia has to say about it:

Just when you thought Balmainia had reached its peak with countless A-list wearers, fashion editor fans galore and numerous sell-out pieces worth £5,000 plus, the most unexpected twist in Christophe Decarnin's killer S/S ‘09 collection has happened and things have taken a turn for the (even more) extreme. Here's Michael Jackson wearing a ladies Balmain crystal encrusted zebra T-shirt. Yes, you read that right. Something tells us that Jackson might have read the reviews of the recent Balmain collection, which – with its sparkly frogged jackets and crystal embellished dresses that hark back to the 1980s – was inspired by the king of pop. But whether Michael popped in store to pick this up or Christophe sent him a gift we don't know (could there be more on the way come tour-time?). That's the kind of fashion collaboration we'd really like to see...

True that MJ was a major inspiration for the Balmain collection and the fashion world has been buzzing about it for a long time now, check out Anna Della Russo (Creative consultant for Vogue Nippon) in one of their jackets:

Mj has been under-recognized for his fashion over the last few years. the suits he wore to the trial everyday were some cool clothes that nobody else wears.

Jade wanted Jack to find love again

Jade Goody told her husband Jack Tweed to look for a new partner as she lay on her deathbed, it has been revealed.

The reality TV star, who died last month aged 27, kept a diary of her battle with cervical cancer, and wrote of her love and admiration for Jack, who nursed her through her final weeks.

In an entry in Jade: Forever In My Heart, extracts of which appear in this week's OK! magazine, she wrote that she had told Jack she didn't want him to stay single after her death, saying: "I told Jack, 'I want you to meet someone nice'."

She went on: "Jack looked horrified. 'I don't want anyone else', he said."

In the March 11 entry - 11 days before Jade died - she wrote: "My husband is so lovely to me. He cleans my teeth, he changes my underwear, washes me gently with a flannel. The nurse showed him how to lift me gently. I could feel him putting his hands under me so lightly. I feel all bony now, but he didn't hurt me at all."

Jade also wrote of her happiness at receiving messages of goodwill from singer Michael Jackson and the Queen.

Jack, 21, was jailed for 12 weeks by magistrates in Harlow, Essex, today (Tuesday April 14) for assaulting a taxi driver, and was told he would have been given a longer sentence had it not been for the "recent change in (his) personal circumstances".

Thanks for the news :D

I couldn't agree more on the pants. I think I would be more than shocked if I ever see him wearing something like that :blink: :lol:

He actually wore pants that were similar for the Vogue photoshoot. You couldn't see his skin though so he must have had something underneath as well.
 
Those were some funky pants but I don't think they were open like that though.

I think you are right. I went back and looked at the one picture I have of them and they do seem to be closed. The cloth hangs similar so thinking back I thought maybe they were the same but with black tights under or something. Yeah. They were def funky.
 
These jackets must be getting really popular. Look who is wearing one & some of the comments are interesting:
