American entertainer Michael Jackson Called the "King Of Pop" considered as one of the most successfull and influential entertainers of all time. For much of Jackson's career, he had an unparalleled influence all over the world through his musical ,dance,fashion and humanitarian contributions.

As child music prodigie Jackson joined his older siblings in the Jackson 5 at age five.In the early 1980s, Jackson became a dominant figure in popular culture and the first African American entertainer to have a strong crossover fanbase on Music Television (MTV). His music videos, including those of "Beat It", "Billie Jean", and "Thriller" from his 1982 album Thriller, are credited with breaking racial barriers and transforming the medium into an art form and promotional tool. The popularity of these videos helped bring the television channel MTV to fame.
