  • Michael Jackson: Was He the Man in the Mirror?
    Brunner 18.07.13 02:03 Journal of Integrated Studies, Vol 4, No 1 (2013) Michael Jackson: Was He the Man in the Mirror? Stephanie Brunner Stephanie Brunner will complete her MA of Integrated Studies through Athabasca University this winter. Her interests include mental health, particularly the social constructs of mental illness and, more particularly, the separation of mind/body. Abstract Michael Jackson did not like his reflection in the mirror. He was obsessed with it, changing it many times in an effort to love his image. In analyzing Michael Jackson’s responses given in various interviews regarding his appearance and personal history, it becomes increasingly evident the impact childhood trauma and loneliness has on mental well-being. It emerged that Michael Jackson should have been diagnosed with Narcissistic Personality Disorder, and that had the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, a diagnostic tool used by the medical profession, been more clear as to the importance of etiology, and the diagnostic features more concise and encompassing rather than fuzzy and overlapping, Michael Jackson may have been effectively diagnosed and treated, avoiding becoming the man in the mirror. Keywords: NPD, narcissism, celebrity, Michael Jackson, childhood trauma “The repression of childhood pain influences not only the life of an individual but also the taboos of the whole society.” Alice Miller Imagine looking out into a crowd and having your idealized self reflected back at you. Michael Jackson spent most of his life transforming himself to mirror his idealized reflection; he morphed into something that was unlike his appearance as a child, seemingly assimilating a Peter Pan-like world into his reality – even naming his estate Neverland Ranch.

Foreword At times, I ask the man in the mirror a question: “Do you remember when the course of your (my) life was decided?” * * * When I was a child, I just followed the path my parents had set for me, like many people do. While some people might only follow that early path, I suppose the majority must follow intently the other path that they later choose for themselves. At least in my case, this was true. Then, I wonder, when did I choose this path for my life? * * * There was definitely a big sign. Yeah ... I remember it well. A sign that can change the path of your life often turns out to be an encounter with a particular person. Of course, an encounter with a book can also change your life. * * * A moving reading experience is similar to an encounter with that special person. Introduction: The Mystery of a Gift To the south of Lake Michigan lies Gary, Indiana. Smoke rising from the chimneys of steel mills clouds the vision of this city, which has the highest African American population in the United States.

During Jackson’s HIStory World Tour in 1996, he spent two hours at a Sydney hospital playing “Father Christmas,” as one Australian newscaster described it, giving out thousands of dollars worth of dolls, toys, and computer games to bedridden children whose faces lit up with smiles. Two years earlier, a visit to a Hungarian hospital during a break from a video shoot led him to pay for a liver transplant for a 4-year-old boy … and It was not treatment for the next 10 years. important to seek Even earlier, during the world tour for his credit for these album Bad from 1987 to 1989, if Jackson acts of kindness wasn’t visiting sick and underprivileged children, he was bringing them backstage for and generosity. the thrill of a lifetime. “Every night the kids would come in on stretchers, so sick they could hardly hold their heads up,” recalled Jackson’s voice coach Seth Riggs. “Michael would kneel down at the stretchers and put his face right down beside theirs so that he could have his picture taken with them, and then give them a copy to remember the moment. I couldn’t handle it. I’d be in the bathroom crying. The kids would perk right up in his presence.

  • MJ: the Man in the Mirror Analyzed
    MJ: The Man in the Mirror Analyzed Welcome to our special issue on Michael Joseph Jackson (1958-2009). Michael Jackson is one of the most widely beloved entertainers and profoundly influential artists of all-time; he leaves an indelible imprint on popular music and culture. Five of Jackson's solo albums - "Off the Wall," "Thriller," "Bad," "Dangerous" and "HIStory," all with Epic Records - are among the top-sellers of all time and “Thriller” holds the distinction as the largest selling album worldwide in the history of the recording industry with more than 70 million units sold. Additionally, singles released from the “Thriller” album sold more than 100 million copies worldwide, another all time record. During his extraordinary career, Michael Jackson sold an estimated 750 million records worldwide, released 13 No.1 singles and became one of a handful of artists to be inducted twice into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. The Guinness Book of World Records recognized Jackson as the Most Successful Entertainer of All Time and "Thriller" as the Biggest Selling Album of All Time. Jackson won 13 Grammy Awards and received the American Music Award's Artist of the Century Award.

In the early 1980s, he defined the art form of music video with such ground-breaking videos as "Billie Jean," "Beat It" and the epic "Thriller." Jackson's sound, style and dance moves inspired subsequent generations of pop, soul, R&B and hip-hop artists (www.michaeljackson.com: accessed November 7, 2009).

  • Unmistakable Mo- Ment When Michael Jackson Entered the American Mind As an Embodied Possb Bility of Not Just Our Pleasures but Also Our Ideals
    perPormers michae mm Jackson Bv [moreMikal HERE WAS ONE unmistakable mo- ment when Michael Jackson entered the American mind as an embodied possb bility of not just our pleasures but also our ideals. ammmaam hat moment came in early 1983. Jackson’s music was al­ ready in the air by that time - in fact, it was transforming the air. Everywhere you turned, you would hear an ani­ mating sound. It began with taut, maddened, funk-infused guitar lines that scrambled against the upsweeping curve of a string section in a heady depiction of emotional panic. Then a high-end, sensually imploring voice entered the fray and imposed elegance and resolution upon the panic: “What do you mean?” the singer moaned breathtakingly. “I the Who will dance on the floor in the round.” The song was Jackson’s “Billie Jean,” and it had suddenly, surely become one of the most ubiquitous - and excit­ ing - breakthrough singles in recent pop history. Whenever a song becomes as madly popular as “Billie Jean,” it can be fun to examine the rea­ sons why: Was it simply the appeal of the music’s exacting but impelling sound? The fine phrasing and tremulous emotion at play against each oth­ er in the singer’s voice? The allure of the artist’s personality or celebrity? In the case of “Billie Jean,” it was a bit of all those things. Clearly, since a string of brilliant childhood triumphs with the Jackson 5, Jackson - who was twenty-five in 1983 - had long been one of soul and rock’s most stir­ ring singers.

  • Tableaux Main Character
    TABLEAUX MAIN CHARACTER Michael Jackson A living presence in the show through video, whispers, laughter, urging, spoken and projected narrative, screaming, silhouettes, elemental forces, etc. Michael’s spirit is guiding the performers and the audience on the journey, culminating with the release from the grip of Mephisto, which leads everyone to reconnect with Michael’s spirit and his child-like heart. Michael is also represented through certain of his visual iconography – his iconic glove, hat, shoes and glasses – which are transformed into talismans meant to represent certain qualities possessed by Michael. He is the primary protagonist, our Guide. And through his music, lyrics and words, he is also our narrator. TABLEAUX The Vortex – Inspired by the first four verses of Beat It The four misfits who are referred to as the Heroes – Clumsy (slackliner), Shy (martial artist), Smarty Pants (juggler), and Sneaky (manipulation specialist) – get sucked into a Vortex after sneaking into the show. Time Tripping – Beat It Time goes crazy as we cross the metaphoric threshold into a magical world inspired by Michael’s imagination. High above the audience, rotating bungees churn to the funk- infused, drum and guitar-driven rhythms of Beat It. Hide & Seek – Leave Me Alone/Tabloid Junkie/Too Bad Mephisto, a malevolent machine made of radios, microphones, tungsten bulbs, televisions, cameras, and surveillance equipment, makes his first appearance along with the Tabloid Junkies, his dance corps and guards. Lost and Alone – Stranger in Moscow This scene is the Spanish web lament to loneliness of the Beggar Boy, a character in the song “Stranger in Moscow”, while Ngame, the Mother Moon character, watches over.
