Michael Jackson 🎹

Neverland Ranch was not just a ranch, but a real private amusement park. Michael Jackson bought it in 1988 and named it after Peter Pan Island, a country where children never grow up.

Here's what was on its territory:

· Main mansion and infrastructure: French Norman house with an area of ​​~1170 m² with 6 bedrooms. The ranch also had 22 buildings, including guest houses, a 50-seat cinema, basketball and tennis courts, a swimming pool and a lake.

· Amusement park: Own park with a Ferris wheel, roller coasters, a racetrack and a toy railway. The main locomotive was named "Catherine" in honor of his mother.

· Private zoo: Giraffes, tigers, crocodiles and elephants lived there. Jackson's favorite, a chimpanzee named Bubbles, also lived here.

Interesting: The monthly maintenance cost $120,000. The estate itself was completely self-sufficient, with its own fire department and a residential complex for staff.

Michael himself described "Neverland" as a house built for children, especially for the sick and disadvantaged, to give them the joy that he believed he was deprived of as a child.

Here are the main elements of his legendary wardrobe:
👑 Main things and accessories
· White glove with rhinestones: His business card. Especially famous after his performance with the "moon walk" on the show Motown 25 in 1983.
· Military jacket: The second most recognizable detail. Jackets with embroidered epaulettes, gold alum and shoulder straps, inspired by the uniforms of the European armies.
· Red leather jacket: Legendary outfit from the Thriller clip. It was specially created to make Michael stand out against the background of "dirty" zombies.
· Fedora and aviators: The hat and dark glasses gave his image mystery and completeness.
· White socks and black loafers: His "chip" that turned ordinary socks into a fashion trend. This contrast perfectly emphasized his dance movements.

Here's how he dressed offstage:
🕵️‍♂️ The main principle: "Hide behind the fabric"
Michael couldn't stand crowds and paparazzi. That's why his everyday style is an invisible costume. He literally wragged himself from head to toe:
· Hats and veils: He often wore wide-brimmed hats with a long transparent veil covering his face. And if without a veil, then necessarily a surgical mask (long before the pandemic) or dark glasses.
· Umbrellas: Even on a sunny day, he could walk with an umbrella so that no one would recognize him.

👕 At home and at rehearsals: "Pajama" style
At home and in the studio, where no one saw, he dressed as simply and comfortably as possible:
· Classic: Baggy black pants (often with stripes) or loose sweatpants.
· Top: Simple T-shirts, polo shirts or hoodies. I loved layers: I wore two T-shirts at once.
· Shoes: Well-known "penny loafers" (black pumps) or comfortable soft shoes without laces - he wore them because they did not interfere with dancing and were silent.
· Important: There were always dozens of identical black trousers and white T-shirts in his dressing room so as not to think about the choice.

He thanked God for all his successes, prayed and read the Bible every day and did a lot of charity: he is the artist who donated more than any other to charitable works during his life: more than half a billion dollars. – Michael Jackson was originally a Jehovah's Witness, which was his mother's faith. He always thanked and credited God for all his gifts and achievements, and he turned to God in times of crisis, too. Michael would read the Bible every day and he sought out trusted fellow Christians who wouldn't let him down, from lawyer Tom Mesereau, to the Andre Crouch Gospel Choir.
