On June 25th, the world lost Michael Joseph Jackson. An icon that transcended all the barrieres we hold in this world of class,race,sex and religion. He leaves an undestroyable mark on this world whether you were a musician,comedian,actor or just an everyday individual. Here’s what both Nick and Mariah had to say via Twitter:
NickCannon Rest in peace to the greatest to ever do it. His legacy will live on forever!
MariahCarey I am heartbroken. My prayers go out to the Jackson family,and my heart goes out to his children. Let us remember him for his unparalleled contribution to the world of music,his generosity of spirit in his quest to heal the world & the joy he brought to his millions of devoted fans throughout the world. I feel blessed to have performed with him several times & to call him my friend. No artist will ever take his place. His star will shine forever.
Below is a clip of Nick speaking about The Jackson 5 and their influence. Nick also mentioned to Jimmy Fallon when he appaered on his show earlier this week that his earliest comedy was talking about Michael Jackson among other things. Below is also a rare interview with Michael. It’s in 3 parts but this part is my favorite. If you notice you can already see the displays of vitiligo on his hands.
WE LOVE MIKE!! I'M SURE MARIAH WAS HEARTBROKEN, ESPECIALLY SEEING THE "NON-HOLLYWOODISH" FRIENDSHIP THEY SEEMED TO HAVE HAD!! R.I.P…….DAMN
I saw all three parts of this. How could people be so nasty to that man!
Michael Jackson is truly the King of Pop!. He made a lot of great songs in the area of Pop Music. His death is a great loss to the music industry.
