The moonwalk
The moonwalk
1.The Moonwalk~ What move is as legendary or as remembered as the moonwalk? The moonwalk is one of the most famous moves in all history. I don't really know where Michael learned it from, I mean there are so many storries I've heard about it. Like he learned it from the guy who first did it and then Michael just perfected it. Then I heard the Michael learned it from children and streat dancers. Idk if it's a mix of all of those. There are many storries where there are two different storries that could both be true. Like the story behind the song Speechless. People say that Michael wrote it after a water balloon fight, and others say he wrote it after taking a walk in the forest, both could be true, like having a water fight in the forest. But I really don't care where it came from or who did it before Michael, all I know is that it makes my jaw drop whenever I see it. I can do the moonwalk, but it took me 9 months to make it look just a little bit like what Michael did. Has anyone seen JB moonwalk? He can't do it. lol.


The grab that makes girls faint

2.Crotch Grab~ Well I really love the one he dose at the beginning of preforming Billie Jean, it goes perfectly with the beat. And the story of why he dose it is another one where both could be right. People say that he did it because girls went crazy when he did it (well of course), but Michael said that he did it accidentally (I don't believe that, lol), but others say that is was planed choreography. Now I can believe all of them. I bet that Michael did it sometimes knowing that it made the girls happy, and then sometimes the music just made him go crazy and made him do it without even knowing he was doing it. But is some performances you can tell that it was planed, because all the dancers were doing it, or he dose it at the same time in the same song every time he dose it, like Billie Jean. (I don't do this move, unless I'm playing Michael Jackson the Experience on Wii.)


Spinin spinin all day long
Spinin spinin all day long
3.The Spin~ I still don't know how Michael dose those long spins and then manages to land on his toes!!!! But I love when he spins then falls to his knees, pure passion and power. Those short little spins are amazing too, (now those I can actually do). It is kind of funny how people started to notice his spin and kick in the Thriller era and not earlier. He was doing that spin since he was a little kid. I noticed that recently, because I have been watching more J5 stuff because I really haven't before. I've paid more attention to Michael's solo years more then those years he spent with his brothers. But now I'm listening to J5 music and watching Michael dance when he was little, and I really think that it was amazing what he could do at such a young age.


Oh yeah! Go for the toes!
Oh yeah! Go for the toes!
4.The Toe Stand~ He doesn't just stand on his toes, he moves into this sort of S looking position and his legs and feet are curved in a way that makes it look imposable to do. Idk how to explain it better then that. The toe stand looks like it would really hurt that's why I haven't really ever tried to do it. I don't know why Michael got so mad at himself when he "didn't stay long enough" on his toes in his first performance of Billie Jean at Motown 25. I don't know anyone who moonwalk, spin at least 6 times around then land perfectly on his toes and stay there for more then three seconds. Michael was a professional, and he thought he screwed up the whole show. He didn't know that he just made history. He thought he did a horrible job until that one little boy gave him that one little complement.


Dangerous!
Dangerous!
5.The Feet Shuffle~ I know that sounds weird but idk what else to call it! It's basically all those cool moves that Michael dose with his feet in the cat dance. It's just one of those many moves which I have no clue how he dose it, normal. And the feet shuffle is also the move that Michael dose in the dangerous performance where he shuffles his feet. It is just such a cool and interesting move!


chuga chuga choooo chooo!
chuga chuga choooo chooo!
6. The Train~ I wish I knew the names of these moves!! But that's what it looks like to me. This is the move that Michael dose in the short film Bad where Michael and all the other dancers are scooting across the floor like a train (as soon as I wrote the word, Bad , the song Bad came on on my computer! haha!) And Michael also dose it in Another Part of me performance. Awesome move! I can sort of do it..... for like 8 steps. All of Michael's moves, even the most simple ones are like almost imposable to do right. Michael is the king.


hop hop kick!
hop hop kick!
7.The Hop hop kick~ Oh my gosh I'm starting to sound like one of those trainers on MJ the Experience! That's what they said about this move. "You just have to hop hop then kick! Hop hop kick!" So I just call it hop hop kick. You guys are probably laughing at what I call some of these moves. I don't blame you. I just don't know what they are called!!! Until I find out I will continue to call them these names. At least I know the names of some of the moves, like "the crotch grab". If I didn't know the name I probably would have called it, " The grab he dose that makes girls faint". Anyway, this move Michael dose in TDCAU (too lazy to type it all out). Now you know what I'm talking about. When I try to hop hop kick my sister starts to laugh her head off. So I stopped trying. Hope you enjoyed my rambling!


karate kid!!! lol
karate kid!!! lol
8.The Kick~ No wonder Michael had a black belt in karate! I so wouldn't want to be in a fight with Michael! I'd be dead with one kick! I try to imagine Michael practicing karate, and I stat to laugh at what I imagine. Michael was so healthy and fit. It made me laugh when I read that Michael once challenged a doctor who thought that he wasn't fit, to a race, Michael won of course. Michael was such a fast runner! He was a real speed demon!


Throw it back!
Throw it back!
9.The jacket throw back~ Oooooo love this move. So simple yet beautiful. I do this move whenever I wear a jacket, it's very fun to do. Whenever Michael pushes his Jacket back it makes me want to hit replay. Those simple little moves Michael did are some of my favorites. (I count all little moves like, finger pointing and punches, and throw backs in this section.)


Dancing machine

10.The robot~ Oh my goodness! I forgot to put this on higher! Haha. I just want to say that Michael is probably the best robot dancer that I have ever seen. I can't do those moves. I love the song Dancing Machine because of Michael's robot dance! I really dose look like a robot when he dose it. (Great, now I have that song stuck in my head! > <)

3 months later...

Today is the day! I'm marrying Michael. I can't believe this. Getting married to him will put me in the spotlight. Maybe then I could prove to Joe that Michael and I were meant to be. You see, Joe is like a cavity. You don't want him around. Anyway, I get ready for the wedding with my mama, Janet, LaToya and my sister Felicity.

" Honey, you look beautiful." My mama complimented.
I tilt my head, looking in the mirror. " Thank You Mama." I said, shaking nervously. My hands were shaking and I'm pretty sure that my heart rate was as high as the Empire State Building.

LaToya rested...

Planet Earth, My Home, My Place
Planet Earth, My Home, My Place
Ok. Im Pritty Sure Most If Not All Of Moonwalkers Have Read Or Heard Michael Say His Poem Called Planet Earth. If You Havent Read It Ever In Your Life Well I'll Give You A Chance To Read It Below.

Planet Earth, my home, my place
A capricious anomaly in the sea of space
Planet Earth are you just
Floating by, a cloud of dust
A minor globe, about to bust
A piece of metal bound to rust
A speck of matter in a mindless void
A lonely spaceship, a large asteroid

Cold as a rock without a hue
Held together with a bit of glue
Something tells me this isn't true
You are my sweetheart soft and blue
Do you care, have...

I am speechless

1.Speechless~ When I first heard this I was drawing and when this came on the drawing that I was drawing started to look better. And that drawing is one of the best ones I ever did because I listened to that song and it made me want to do the best that I could do. Speechless makes me Speechless. I really think that Michael should have done a music video for this one, I know he wanted to. It's funny, most of my favorite songs are songs that Michael really loved, like Speechless, Smooth Criminal, and Smile. I just love how the beautiful orchestra in the background and the slow beat, and the chorus...

When Michael Jackson came into my life I didn't feel alone anymore.
When Michael Jackson smiled I felt butterflies in my stomach.
When Michael Jackson laughed I felt Speechless.
When Michael Jackson sang I smiled and laughed.
When Michael Jackson danced I screamed in admiration.
When Michael Jackson said "I love you" I knew that I couldn't stop loving him.
When Michael Jackson was accused I knew that whatever happened I'd be there for him.
When Michael Jackson died I cried and once again I felt all alone, for he was now out of my life.
When I watched Michael Jackson's memorial I cried again,...

The Master Den At Michael's House
As Maris was browsing through Michael's C.D. collection, there was quite a selection to choose from leaving her to pick a few ranging from classical to old school R&B, but it was hard to choose. Meanwhile, Michael made two stops at Hunan King for some Chinese food and KFC before heading to Martoni's in order to pick the Key Lime pie for dessert. While driving down Rodeo drive, Michael made a stop at a local gas station, so he could get some gas; in addition, to purchasing 2-Liter bottles of Coke and Sprite.

Michael had originally anticipated just having lunch with Maris; in addition, to...

A loving relationship
A loving relationship
1. Katherine Jackson~ I kept thinking and thinking of who to put up as number 1. I was going to put Tatiana first until I thought, "Wait, it doesn't just have to be women in his love life. It could be just any women in his life!" And no woman was as loving and as loyal to Michael as his own mother. Katherine was an angel. She is so sweet and kind. Katherine has gone through a lot and so has Michael. They have been there for each other. Every day of the 2005 trial Katherine was there for her son. She loved her son so much. I feel so sad for her now. Her little baby boy is gone. The little boy...

1.Scream~ I love this music video so much. I love the song too. I love how the B&W brings out Michael's beautiful eyes. The idea of a space ship is just so cool! I love that Janet is in the music video too. I love her hair! The way Michael and Janet act and dance together in the video is so cute! Like where they are both playing video games together. I also love it when Michael smashes things. Is it just me or dose something strange always happen when Michael Jackson yells? Like in Black or white when he yells the whole town goes crazy. And in Moonwalker when everything brakes because he...

You know, the whole Arvizo family was just crazy. They said that Michael saved them and then they said that he molested and kidnapped them. The Arvizo mother, Janet, wanted all her kids to be actors. And that's what this family was, a bunch of actors trying to get celebrity money any way they could. When they saw that Michael's weakness was children, (in a good way! Michael could NEVER resist helping, or giving something to a child), so they said that Gavin's dying wish, (Gavin had cancer)was to see Michael Jackson, (even though there were a few other people higher on their lists) and of course...

As they went into the living the living room, Michael grabbed his car keys and headed out the door in order to pick up dinner and dessert. "Before you do anything else" he replied, "I'd like for you to call Hannah and let her know that you'll be spending the night with me, and I'll take you home in the morning on my way to work". "Okay, I will"' Maris replied, as he walked out the door. "By the way, I really do want to make yourself comfortable for the duration of your stay here", he replied, "whatever you want, it's yours at your disposal".

"Thanks, I really appreciate your hospitality and...

I smiled at the sound of AJ's tiny little feet scurrying down the hall and into my bedroom. She climbed on the bed and asked "daddy why are you packing our suitcases?" I said "remember, I told you a couple days after your third birthday we would be leaving because I have to go back to work." She said "daddy I don't want to leave! I want to stay here!" I said "I know and trust me I don't want to leave here either! We won't be gone very long this time though! We'll be back about 35 days from now." She responded "35 days… that's going to take forever!" I said "just think about it; when we get...

Sitting at his vanity, Michael let Maris do his makeup; in addition , to fixing his hair. Maris couldn't figure out why he requested, but she did his makeup without any hesitation, and the idea of her hands stroking his face gave him a warm feeling inside of him. Like adding a shade of paint on a canvas, Maris applied the makeup on his face just like a professional makeup artist.

While doing his makeup, Maris used the specific cosmetics, which he requested she used on his face such as some of the Fashion Fair cosmetics; in addition to the Lancome eyeliner and coal black mascara. After she did...

"I know it you're probably wondering why I'm asking you to do my makeup, but this part of the process of you being comfortable around me", he replied, "I want to feel your warm hands touching my face; as well, as my body, which you've already when you've already when took a shower together". This was a very unusual romance for the two lovers, and it was starting to get very interesting by the minute given everything that's happend between them during the last two weeks of their unusual courtship.

Taken aback my Michael's request, Maris agreed to do what was asked her on questions asked. After...

Smile - Lyrics

Smile, though your heart is aching
Smile, even though it's breaking
When there are clouds in the sky
You'll get by...

If you smile
With your fear and sorrow
Smile and maybe tomorrow
You'll find that life is still worthwhile
If you just...

Light up your face with gladness
Hide every trace of sadness
Although a tear may be ever so near
That's the time you must keep on trying
Smile, what's the use of crying
You'll find that life is still worthwhile
If you just...

Smile, though your heart is aching
Smile, even though it's breaking
When there are clouds in the sky
You'll get by...

If you smile
Through your fear and sorrow
Smile and maybe tomorrow
You'll find that life is still worthwhile
If you just smile...

That's the time you must keep on trying
Smile, what's the use of crying
You'll find that life is still worthwhile
If you just smile

Kind Hearted Person
Kind Hearted Person
Seeing how he's been apart of lives for over four decades, Michael has no idea just how much we miss him, and how much he's meant to us in regards to his life and legacy. Michael has been in the public eye for most of his life, but never had a normal just like you and me. Speaking for myself, I miss him, but I got all the good memories of what he's done over the years to look back, and I play his music on occasions and reflect on his life and his legacy.

Everybody not only liked, but loved him for the reason was a kind, caring and down-to-earth individual, who take no stuff off of anyone especially...

Chapter 16,

January 2, 2009,

I was lying in my bed with Carter in his crib on the other side of my large bedroom. Dad came in and said as he walked over to pick up Carter because he was crying "AJ; you need to get up." I put a pillow over my head and rolled over. He said "you need to get up!" I complained "Carter kept me up all night long every hour and a half! I'm tired; can it be your turn?" He said "no, no, no, that's not how it works! I told you that if you wanted to raise Carter as your child then it's your responsibility to take care of him; not mine! I understand that you're tired but;...
