1977- "Enjoy Yourself" is a song recorded by The Jacksons and released as a single in 1976. It was the first non-Motown single for the group since they departed from the label earlier that year. The song reached #6 on the pop charts and #2 on the R&B charts. 'Enjoy Yourself' becomes Jackson`s first offical Gold record certified by the RIAA on February 10, 1977. It was also the group's first Platinum single, as well as the first song to featured new member Randy Jackson, who replaced Jermaine after he decided to stay in Motown after his brothers left. The song is sampled in "Let's Have A Party" by the Backstreet Boys, which appears in their 1996 album, Backstreet Boys (International).
1979 – The Jackson performe their Destiny Tour in Brighton, England.
1979 – It's Jacksons Day on American Bandstand. Michael Jackson perform the song 'Push Me Away'. At February 9, 1958 a report by the American Research Bureau cites Dick Clark's American Bandstand as the top-ranked daytime television program, drawing an average of 8,400,000 viewers per day.
1988 - Singer Michael Jackson is finally in this Panhandle city to rehearse for his concert tour “BAD” after bad weather in Atlanta delayed his arrival by three days, a publicity spokeswoman said. On Monday afternoon, Jackson arrived in the same Eastern Airlines that carried the Pensacola Tornados of the Continental Basketball Association home from a road trip. The singer is sharing the 10,000-seat Pensacola Civic Center with the Tornados, who had a home game scheduled Tuesday night, as he rehearses through February 18 for a 13-city tour that will begin Feb. 23 in Kansas City, Mo. Jackson was expected to arrive Friday night. The performer was met at the airplane's steps and whisked away. Television cameras caught only a fleeting glimpse of him.Jackson's lighting equipment and stage and a 100-person entourage of musicians, backup singers and others began arriving two weeks ago, but Jackson does not plan any public performances in Pensacola. Local radio disc jockeys Doug and Denise Williams went on a hunger strike for two weeks in an effort to persuade Jackson to stage a performance in Pensacola. That ended Monday after Williams lost 25 pounds and his wife 15 pounds. Meanwhile, city officials have ordered the removal of a mobile home set up in the parking lot of a nearby motel as a headquarters for Jackson fans. A city ordinance prohibits retail sales out of trailers without.
1992 - MTV kicked off its first global sweepstakes with "My Dinner with Michael". Winners from around the world attended a dinner party hosted by Michael Jackson on the set of his music video "In the Closet". Later that year, a biopic, The Jacksons: An American Dream debuted on ABC based on the true story of the rise of The Jackson 5.
1992 - Michael Jackson departs to Africa. He travels for 11 days to visit hospitals, orphanages, schools, churches & institutions for mentally handicapped children, covering about 30,000 miles on his journey.
1993 - The World première of Give into Me video took place on February 10, 1993 during the worldwide live telecast from Neverland Valley of "Michael Jackson Talks... To Oprah". The video clip is starring Michael Jackson and Slash. Shooting of the video clip took place in Munich, Germany. Video clip produced by Phil Rose and Warren Hewlett. Staging Michael Jackson. Directed by Andy Moharan.
1993 - Oprah Winfrey interviews Michael Jackson on her prime-time special on ABC-TV. Michael Jackson Talks to Oprah, a 90 minute long interview, was broadcast LIVE around the world from Michael's Neverland Valley Ranch in California. The live telecast attracted about 85 million viewers in US alone, and was the 4th most watched TV event in history. It was the most successful ABC entertainment special ever. In the interview, Jackson claims that he has a disorder that destroys the pigmentation of the skin. He also claims he's had very little plastic surgery. Elizabeth Taylor made a surprise appearance during Oprah Winfrey’s primetime interview with Michael Jackson. Elizabeth, who at first didn’t intend to appear on the program, set the record straight about her friendship with her friend Jackson and the controversy surrounding him.
1996 - Michael Jackson flew into Brazil Friday to begin filming a controversial video. He was welcomed with near-hysterical enthusiasm by fans in Salvador. Hand-in-hand with two children -- and with only his eyes visible above a black surgical mask -- the singer sprinted across a shimmering runway to wave to hundreds of fans gathered on an airport balcony. "He started running toward us and I almost fainted," said breathless schoolgirl Sheila de Oliveira, still in tears after her not-so-close encounter with the star.
Plans by Jackson and director Spike Lee to film in Brazil as part of a video for the song "They Don't Care About Us" have caused an uproar. Authorities have alleged the use of a Rio de Janeiro shantytown as a backdrop would damage the city's attempts to revive its tourism industry and host the 2004 Olympics.
2000 - It was reported that Michael has selected "The Firm" as his new management company. "The Firm", a two-year-old company described as "one of the hottest music management teams in the world", is headed by Jeff Kwantinetz and Michael Green. John McLain, a family associate and former high-ranking A&M executive, will remain involved in managing Michael Jackson.
2003 - "In response to a number of allegations made against Michael Jackson in the Sunday newspapers, in the United Kingdom, Michael has authorised the following statement to be made. "Michael Jackson is authorising the release of excerpts from a video-tape taken while Bashir was interviewing Michael Jackson, in which Martin Bashir was recorded. "The film shows extraordinary scenes of Martin Bashir praising the way Michael treats children and commenting on how good a father he is. "These video excerpts were taken in the eighth - and last - month of Bashir's shooting with Michael and after the time Bashir and Michael were in Berlin. "In his film, Bashir says that it was in Berlin that he began to change his mind about Michael's treatment of his children. Yet, the Jackson footage clearly shows that Bashir was actually continuing to praise Michael's abilities as a father and Bashir making many statements about how he feels it is a pity that the world is so quick to criticise Michael... "In relation to the 1993 allegations made by Jordy Chandler which have again been recycled by certain newspapers, Michael has authorised the issue of the following: "Michael cannot understand why Jordy Chandler ever made these allegations over 10 years ago. "Michael Jackson then, and has ever since, vehemently denied that these events ever took place. "Michael does not know who manipulated Jordy Chandler to make these allegations at the time, nor has he ever understood why, other than the motives of some people to exploit both Jordy and Michael, for financial gain. "The reason Michael chose to pay Jordy Chandler a considerable sum of money, rather than be publicly vindicated following a trial, was to avoid being subjected to a media circus. "Despite his profound hurt at the allegations made by Jordy, Michael did not, at the time, think it right or proper to subject a 14 year old boy to prolonged litigation, the effects of which on Jordy appeared to be of little concern to those manipulating Chandler at the time. "Michael Jackson has respected the obligation of confidentiality imposed on all the parties to the prior proceedings, yet someone has chosen to violate that confidentiality and use Jordy's 1993 statements to further sully Michael's character. "Whoever is now leaking this material is showing as much disregard for Jordy as they are determination to attack Michael. "Michael is aware that certain former employees are, or are planning to, sell certain stories to the press. As with all celebrities, he is vulnerable to being exploited and abused by anyone who chooses to betray his trust, in return for financial gain. "Michael Jackson said on Sunday: "I am bewildered at the length to which people will go to portray me so negatively. I will say again that I have never, and would never, harm a child. It sickens me that people have written things that portray me as a child abuser."
