Michael was the seventh of the nine Jackson Siblings, as he ruled the charts with his electrifying performances. His career was overshadowed with spontaneous public behavior, startling physical transformation and a number of child abuse allegations.

He surrounded himself with children at his Neverland, named after Peter Pan's dream world island, filled with toys, animals and rides. And because of this tabloids dubbed him as "Wacko Jacko".
