     Michael Joseph Jackson (born August 29, 1958) is an American recording artist, entertainer, and
businessman. In the early 1980s, he became an important figure in popular music. The popularity of
his music videos, such as "Beat It", "Billie Jean" and "Thriller", helped bring the relatively new channel
to fame. Videos such as "Black or White" and "Scream" made Jackson a famous person on MTV in the
1990s. With stage performances and music videos, Jackson popularized a number of physically
complicated dance techniques, such as the robot and the moonwalk. His distinctive musical sound and
sound style influenced hip hop, pop and contemporary R&B artists.
     Jackson has donated and raised millions of dollars for beneficial causes through his foundation,
charity singles and support of 39 charities. The singer has experienced health concerns since the early
1990s and conflicting reports regarding the state of his finances since the late 1990s. Jackson married
twice and fathered three children.

other achievements include multiple Guinness World Records－including one for "Most Successful
Entertainer of All Time"－13 Grammy Awards, 13 number one singles in his solo career－more than
any other male artist in the Hot 100 era－and the sale of over 750 million units worldwide. As one of
