5 Things You May Not Know About Michael Jackson
( Credits: The New Paper )


1) Billie Jean was the first video by a black artist to air on MTV.
( I'd like to say : MTV was a racist, and they did not wanted to play Motown, aka music by black artists but MJ was an exception because his music was TOOOOO well liked by everyone the including non-blacks )

2) The singer patented ( and invented ) a shoe device that allowed dancers to lean forward at gravity defying angles.
( I'd like to say : You can watch him in action in those cool shoes in his music video from the Moonwalker Movie, Smooth Criminal )

3) He is the godfather of Lionel Richie's daughter Nicole, and Bee Gees sing Barry Gibb's son Michael.
( I'd like to say : If my memory serves me right, Nicole Richie wanted to name her I-think-now should-be-new-born infant son 'Michael Jackson Richie' )

4) He named his 2 sons Prince to honour his mother,whose great-grandfather, grandfather, and father were named Prince Screw, Prince Screws Jr, and Price Screws lll.
( I'd like to say : He named his daughter Paris because she was born in Paris. He was also godfather to Paris Hilton if my memory serves me right. )

5) In 1984, a U.S. library accused Jackson of owing it over $1 million in overdue book fines. Officials said they would scrap the fines if he returned the books autographed.
( I'd like to say : MJ has admitted that he has been targeted for people who want money. On ebay, a guy from Singapore, Noel was selling a picture of MJ with MJ's signature, and the starting price ( it was on bid ) was $11 000 )
