Michael Joseph Jackson, 33 , is an American singer, songwriter and dancer, internationally known as the King of Pop. Born August 29, 1958, in Gary, Indiana, he rose to fame as the lead singer of the Jackson 5 before becoming a global solo superstar with his recent album like *Off the Wall*, *Thriller*, *Bad* and most recent off the chart, *Dangerous* Michael is reserved around strangers but playful, witty and mischievous with those he trusts. Imaginative, sensitive and compassionate, he has a youthful sense of wonder, a sharp sense of humour and a sentimental side. Beneath his gentle demeanour lies fierce ambition, competitiveness and perfectionism. He can be stubborn, quietly sarcastic and reluctant to admit when he's wrong. He values loyalty, privacy and genuine connections, often masking vulnerability with humour or silence. His childhood was dominated by demanding rehearsals under his father, Joseph's management, while his mother, Katherine, provided comfort. He shares complicated but meaningful bonds with his siblings.
