special boots that allowed the wearer to

gravity. He used this for the famous “lean”

| For beauty proposes and to live
longer, Michael Jackson used to sleep in an oxygen tent. He later donated the
bed to a Californian medical centre as a therapeutic aid for burns victims.NOTE:
In an interview with Oprah, Michael Jackson denied sleeping in this bed;
according to him, he donated a million dollars to a foundation who bought the
bed. He then saw that strange piece of technology, tried it on, somebody took a
picture and that is how the rumor started. |
In 1985, a three-year-old chimpanzee named
Bubbles was rescued from a Texas cancer
research center by Michael Jackson. From
that moment on, Bubbles went everywhere with
Jackson, becoming his constant companion and
purported best friend. He would even be
dressed up in the same outfit as Jackson and
toured with him on his Bad tour. Bubbles now
resides in an animal sanctuary, he is no
longer safe to be let out to play with the
public. Jackson continued to visit his
beloved pet with his children, and the chimp
would resume a very childish and playful
behavior when Jackson was around |

Back when Jackson was merely a
semi-eccentric star, Sega created a video
game property for him, named Michael
Jackson’s Moonwalker. Moonwalker was notable
for being an early example of real-life
celebrities appearing in video games, and
for using digitized versions of some of
Jacko’s songs. The game is also
unintentionally ironic because Jackson is
tasked with rescuing helpless children from
a crime boss named Mr. Big |
