Why Was Michael Jackson So Popular?
Michael Jackson was born Michael Joseph Jackson in Gary, Indiana on August 29, 1958, and entertained audiences nearly his entire life. His father Joe Jackson had been a guitarist, but was forced to give up his musical ambitions, following his marriage to Katherine (Scruse).

Despite it all, Jackson 's passion and artistry as a singer, dancer, writer and businessman are unparalleled, and it is these prodigious talents that will ultimately prevail over the extremely negative aspects of his seriously troubled adult life. What I can say about Michael Jackson is that he is still very popular. And I think he became more popular since his death or became popular again. He was the best entertainer in the world en you can also recognizable because of his dance moves. Related to marketing, he brings in a lot because he was one of the best entertainers in the world. Since his death he brings in a lot because his popularity has recovered again. Not only with his stuff on the auction after his death, but also his cd `s which in turn sold since his death. Because of his popularity he brings in a lot since his death. His stuff on the auction, CD `s all entertainment shows who were started many countries.
As well as dance shows as singing shows and of course the show about his family the Jackson 4.
He has given us the height or else the depth point of the year. All over the world we are still very much listening to him and talking about him. We certainly can compare him to Elvis

In the last years of his life, he settled into a quiet, comfortable role as a living legend, a forbidding king who lived in his palace and that only occasionally descended below to mingle among his subjects, usually to accept some award or tribute.

    Michael Jackson showed evidence of Body Dysmorphic Disorder due to the significant impairment that his idealizations caused on his personal life. Since an early age Michael was exposed to “taunting by his father, calling him ‘Big Nose’” which caused continuous issues with his self-image (Rich). In 1979, Michael also broke his nose when in rehearsal. Complications with a rhinoplasty while correcting the fracture made it difficult for Michael breath. This resulted in Michael receiving another rhinoplasty to fix the problem. Several surgeons have speculated that Jackson had undergone multiple nasal surgeries, a forehead lift, thinned lips and a cheekbone surgery (Rich).…

    Imagine the world without John Lennon; it's almost inconceivable. I low can one envision a world without the melodies and lyrics of the Man who transformed the way people feel about popular music? John Lennon did not set out to leave an indelible impact on the world. His beginnings were no different from those of thousands of other teenage hopefuls who went from club to club in pursuit of a recording contract. After much hard work, John Lennon and the other members of the Beatles became world famous. But at the pinnacle of his success, Lennon had the courage and vision to move beyond contemporary rock ‘n' roll. He broke away from the most popular group of all time and ultimately emerged as his generation's most influential voice. More than any other contemporary artist, Lennon spoke in a universal language that transcended generational lines, combined musical forums, arid crossed geographical borders.…
