People Weekly magazine reports that "Michael looked positively legendary in gold-tipped cowboy boots, a blinding diamond brooch and—in a dramatic sartorial departure—two gloves. Madonna, awash in peroxide and pluck, diverted at least some of the attention from her low-cut, pearl-encrusted Bob Mackie gown with $20 million in diamonds, on loan from jeweler Harry Winston. They entered L.A.’s Shrine Auditorium and promptly collected their well-deserved Best Seat honors—front row, two on the aisle..."

QUOTE OF THE DAY

" In 1983 the brothers reunited and returned to do Motown 25th anniversary show.
After a high powered dazzling melody of their songs Michael took the stage alone
and made pop history. From the first beat of Billie Jean, I was mesmerized. And
when he did his iconic moonwalk, I was shocked. It was magic. Michael Jackson
went into orbit, and never came down. "

Michael & Madonna looked absolutely divine when they went to that show together. They really complemented each other in their dress & style. I wish I had his jacket and pants.

That song One Day in your Life, is one of my oldies favorites. It is so romantic & Michael sings it in that haunting way makes young girls knees buckle.

Goosebumps:clapping:

Doesn't he look lovely in jeans on that Motown 25 rehearsal video:cheeky:


It is amazing that he did this little movement for few seconds 30 years ago, and people are still talking about it 30 years later. :bow:

I remember watching this video of Michael Bush saying MJ wanted him to find out what Madonna will be wearing so they would match.
That outfit is one of my favorites Michael has wore:wub:
 
Hearing her sing, I am thinking it would have been nice if they had recorded a song together. However, according to rumors, she came on too strong--there was a tale she put his hand on her breast--how forward, Madonna--(but hey, go for it)-- didn't work with him. They did look gorgeous together for sure on that date.
 
Gee Wendi! that last picture is way too cute/hot/charming/sexy. evertything really and i think i havent seen it before ! :love:
 
I Found and added more historical data above for March 25th

I love when Michael whispers in people's ear. He has a special way of doing it.

I don't like to see Michael in regular blue jeans. I guess I am the only person who dislikes that look on him. I don't like the jeans look when he ran up to the stage to sing with Diana, in the prison video although that look is appropriate there, or in the rehearsals footage above. It is not that the jeans does not look good on him. I like his look with fitted black pants, or the jeans with studs he wore for James Brown, gold pants, & dress pants.
