    Trouble viewing this email? View in web browser › REAL ESTATE Some people collect stamps. Some, wealthier than I, collect vintage cars. Personally, I stick to fridge magnets from the 50 U.S. states. Ron Burkle has us all beat, it seems. The billionaire investor and Pittsburgh Penguins owner has a penchant for collecting high-end homes. “It’s a nondefensible number,” he says. You may remember Mr. Burkle grabbing headlines late last year after he bought Neverland Ranch for $22 million. But his real-estate portfolio extends far beyond Michael Jackson's ranch, and includes estates like Greenacres in Beverly Hills, a once "fake apartment" in New York, and a volcano-inspired home in Palm Springs. Mansion's Katherine Clarke takes us on a tour of some of Mr. Burkle's most notable properties right here. Ron Burkle recently completed a massive restoration of Bob Hope’s former Palm Springs home.MICHAL CZERWONKA FOR THE WALL STREET JOURNAL Mr. Burkle's La Jolla home spans about 50,000 square feet. MICHAL CZERWONKA FOR THE WALL STREET JOURNAL We also visit Napa, where artist Gordon Huether built a minimalist home made of glass and aluminum. Mr. Huether, who constructed the property with his wife, Darcy Tunt, didn't "want to live in someone else's house," so he filled the 3,000-square-foot home on the banks of the Napa River with his own artwork. Mansion's Nancy Keates shows us around the place here. And finally, Mansion reporter Candace Taylor tells the tale of a real-estate agent who invited TikTok influencers to film inside her $5.299 million Santa Monica listing.

  • Michael Jackson's Gesamtkunstwerk
    Liminalities: A Journal of Performance Studies Vol. 11, No. 5 (November 2015) Michael Jackson’s Gesamtkunstwerk: Artistic Interrelation, Immersion, and Interactivity From the Studio to the Stadium Sylvia J. Martin Michael Jackson produced art in its most total sense. Throughout his forty-year career Jackson merged art forms, melded genres and styles, and promoted an ethos of unity in his work. Jackson’s mastery of combined song and dance is generally acknowledged as the hallmark of his performance. Scholars have not- ed Jackson’s place in the lengthy soul tradition of enmeshed movement and mu- sic (Mercer 39; Neal 2012) with musicologist Jacqueline Warwick describing Jackson as “embodied musicality” (Warwick 249). Jackson’s colleagues have also attested that even when off-stage and off-camera, singing and dancing were frequently inseparable for Jackson. James Ingram, co-songwriter of the Thriller album hit “PYT,” was astonished when he observed Jackson burst into dance moves while recording that song, since in Ingram’s studio experience singers typically conserve their breath for recording (Smiley). Similarly, Bruce Swedien, Jackson’s longtime studio recording engineer, told National Public Radio, “Re- cording [with Jackson] was never a static event. We used to record with the lights out in the studio, and I had him on my drum platform. Michael would dance on that as he did the vocals” (Swedien ix-x). Surveying his life-long body of work, Jackson’s creative capacities, in fact, encompassed acting, directing, producing, staging, and design as well as lyri- cism, music composition, dance, and choreography—and many of these across genres (Brackett 2012).

These may look like part of the usual rumors about Jackson frequently appearing in the media, however, they are not. Instead, these headlines are the opening scene of the music video for Jackson’s song ‘Leave Me Alone’, released on January 2, 1989, and directed by Jim Blashfield. Jackson opens by singing the words: I don't care what you talkin' 'bout baby I don't care what you say Don't you come walkin' beggin' back mama I don't care anyway ‘Leave Me Alone’ is a response to the rumors that began to circulate in the media after the worldwide success of Jackson’s 1982 album Thriller.

Even as this article is written, controversy rages not only over the cause of his death but also the legacy he has left behind. 2 Michael manifested all that we loved and loathed of our humanity – a desire to restore the innocence of the world and yet a dark inclination towards deviant transgressions. He was very much an enigma that many imitated but few identifi ed with. Although he was a hypersensitive recluse victimized by an abusive childhood, his transformations of physiognomy caused him to be the focus of uninterrupted media attention. He reportedly gave millions to charitable organizations yet left behind an inheritance of debt and lawsuits.

  • 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.

Michael Jackson was born in Gary, Indiana on August 19, 1958. Michael's father, Joe Jackson, worked as a crane operator at a steel mill. His mother, Katherine, took care of the family and sometimes took part time jobs. Both of Michael's parents loved music. His dad played guitar for an R & B band and his mother sang and played the piano. Growing up, all of the Jackson children were encouraged to study music. The Jackson Family Michael grew up in a large family. He had five brothers (Jackie, Tito, Jermaine, Marlon, and Randy) and three sisters (Rebbie, La Toya, and Janet). Michael was the third youngest with Randy and Janet both being younger. The Jacksons were fairly poor and lived in a small house with just two bedrooms for eleven people. A Strict Father Joe Jackson was a very strict father. He didn't allow the kids to have a lot of friends and he often whipped the children if they disobeyed. He wanted them to stay out of trouble and away from gangs. Later, when the Jackson 5 was still getting started, Joe would push the boys to practice for hours. He would hit them or verbally abuse them if they made a mistake. A Young Singer The three older brothers (Jackie, Tito, and Jermaine) formed a band called the Jackson Brothers.

  • Leaving Neverland"
    FACTS TO CONSIDER WHEN WATCHING "LEAVING NEVERLAND" After seeing Leaving Neverland, I thought Michael Jackson lucked out during his lifetime for not having been convicted of child sexual abuse. I wanted to know how he lucked out, so I started reading. Gradually, I came across one surprise after another. The following article is a result of those surprises. Two cases of child sexual abuse were brought against Michael Jackson during his lifetime (the 1993 Chandler case and the 2005 Arvizo case). These cases turned out to be not credible, to say the least. When asked about those who doubted the "not guilty" verdicts of the 2005 criminal trial, the jury replied, "They didn't see what we saw." (from a truly enlightening Huffington Post article by awarded investigative journalist Charles Thomson on the 2005 trial and media coverage – see below for more). Suddenly, in the years after Michael Jackson's death, two other cases of child sexual abuse are brought against the late Michael Jackson. Already these cases contain blatant and proven lies. The question is whether these cases are credible enough on other counts. They better be, because it is one thing to bring charges of child molestation against a living person that, among other things, contain proven false plots to secure monetary compensations; it is another thing to bring those horrible charges against someone who can no longer defend himself. The fact that the case of Robson/Safechuck is partly built on the previous two cases (including some of its "witnesses") is but one element that raises credibility issues.

  • A Judge Will Introduce Michael Jackson to 300 Pros
    Jackson's trial to open Monday By Martin Kasindorf, USA TODAY LOS ANGELES — A judge will introduce Michael Jackson to 300 prospective jurors Monday as the pop star's trial opens on charges of molesting a 13-year- old boy and conspiring to cover it up. Michael Jackson leaves court in Santa Maria, Calif., on Jan. 16, 2004, with his sister Janet. Pool photo by Spencer Weiner Lawyers on both sides who have clashed through a year of pretrial hearings estimate jury selection will take a month in Santa Maria, a farm town of 85,000 known for vineyards and strawberries. Testimony might take four to five months. (Related story: The key players) It shapes up as an extraordinary trial. Jackson, 46, is possibly the most prominent international star ever to be prosecuted. Though his career peaked in the 1980s, when his albums Thriller and Bad sold millions, he remains an icon in Japan, Britain and other countries. Court sessions won't be televised, but cable news, TV gossip shows and supermarket tabloids are planning heavy coverage on a bet that Jackson's fame will attract audiences as the O.J. Simpson murder trial did in 1995. Jackson's fans are expected to besiege the courthouse in Santa Barbara County, 160 miles northwest of Los Angeles. Jackson has been free on $3 million bail since his arrest in November 2003. In April, he pleaded not guilty to a 10-count indictment. The document alleges that Jackson plied the child with alcohol, groped him and plotted with his aides to coerce the boy and his family into taping a video exonerating Jackson of wrongdoing.
