About Michael Jackson - Profile
.....................................................
A performer since the age of five, Michael Jackson is one of the most popular singers in history. His 1983 album, Thriller, sold forty million copies, making it the biggest seller of all time. Through his record albums and music videos he created an image imitated by his millions of fans.

Hard information regarding his actual religious beliefs is muddled. Jackson was born into the Jehovah's Witnesses, via the influence of his mother, who became a JW in 1965. Michael Jackson was disfellowshipped by the JW in 1987. Michael had associations with the Nation of Islam but was never a member of that organization. See Sharon Waxman, "Dispute in Michael Jackson Camp Over Role of the Nation of Islam", The New York Times, 30 December 2003. Disputed reports surfaced that he had converted to Islam. See "Michael Jackson Becomes a Muslim and Changes Name to Mikaeel", Daily Mail, 21 November 2008. Jackson's brother Jermaine did in fact convert to Islam.

Filipino Inmates Pay Tribute to Michael Jackson

Remember the popular YouTube video from 2007 of the Filipino prison inmates dancing to Michael Jackson's "Thriller"? Well, the inmates performed their dance again to pay tribute to Jackson on Saturday at the Cebu Provincial Detention and Rehabilitation Center . The inmates are huge fans of Michael Jackson and after hearing of his death they began practicing their dance in the exercise yard for nine hours straight, taking breaks only to eat or when it rained.

"I felt sad because we lost our idol," said inmate Wenjiel Resane.

A crowd of 700 came to watch the inmates perform. The show started off with a prayer for the Jackson family. Aside from "Thriller," they also performed "Ben," "I'll Be There" and "We Are the World." After they finished dancing they held up a 5-by-10 foot tarpaulin showing Michael Jackson holding a sword with his name written below it.

The "Thriller" YouTube video has had 24.3 million hits since it was first posted and nearly one million of them took place in the 24 since news of Jackson's death was made known. The inmates "consider Michael Jackson as a god here," Byron Garcia, the Cebu provincial security consultant said. "If not for Michael Jackson, they would not have this international recognition."
