On the left, Mike is on the video set that accompanies the song he wrote, “Billie Jean,” which catapulted him from( musical all-star to one of the all-time greats. On the right is a man most would not have been able to identify if we had not so closely followed his steady downward trajectory in physical appearance.
Actress Jane Fonda once told a reporter — before Off the Wall was released to the public in 1979 — that MJ was definitely “one of the walking wounded.” (she invited him on the set of a movie she was starring in where they would talk for hours every day). The world is blessed that the King of Pop released his classic albums before his inner wounds began to bleed outwardly in such a horrid, shocking and public way.
