Some of my most cherished memories of home centre on my mother and the many good times we shared. One day I teasingly told my brothers, “You guys go to Europe all the time, but I’m going to be the first person to take mother there.” It was going to be a special trip, just the two of us together. Before we left, Michael handed me an envelope. “Here,” he said, smiling. “Give this to Mother when the plane is up in the air, okay?”

What is it, I wondered. Once airborne, I took the envelope from my bag and handed it to her. “Mother, this is for you, from Mike.”

“For me?” she asked, surprised. No matter how many gifts her children lavish on her, for Mother each is like the first one.

Inside were $10,000 in cash and a piece of paper on which Michael had written the lyrics to one of her favorite songs, “Moon River.” As we read the words – “Two drifters off to see the world, there’s such a lot of world to see” – tears welled in our eyes.By the time we got to Michael’s inscription, “Please enjoy yourself.Don’t hesitate to do anything.Just go for it.It’s your life, enjoy it.Love, Michael,” we were crying like a couple of idiots.All the passengers stared at us, and the flight attendants kept asking if there was something they could do.

at some point the mj estate hq vault is gonna have to get robbed bc i literally need the entire Munich show shot the way it was in that leaked Billie Jean cut...why are you otherwise letting static, 20-something-yr-old footage rot on youtube when u have the entire show shot on handheld HD digital camera waiting for the right editor. Show me Scream, TDCAU, Beat It, Smooth Criminal, the entire fucking show shot with sharp detail zoom, quick and intentional dynamic cuts in damn near film quality. This is even made more infuriating when the executive of said estate promised big HIStory-related projects for this year given that it is the 30th anniversary of the album's release, and so far we have gotten nothing but. a 30-dollar calendar.

Michael Jackson photographed by Todd Gray in his home theater, Encino, California, 1983.

“Michael showed me his newly finished private theater, complete with plush red velvet seats. I thought his blue sweater would compliment the deep red, and I asked him to take a seat and pretend as if he were watching a movie. ‘Which movie?’ he asked. I said, ‘It doesn’t matter. Any movie will do.’ But Michael insisted: ‘Todd, you’ve got to tell me which movie I’m supposed to be watching if you want a reaction from me.’ 'Okay, what about a Charlie Chaplin comedy?’, I suggested. 'Which one?’ Michael asked. 'He’s made so many, you know.’ My mind went blank; luckily my assistant shouted out, 'Modern Times!’ Michael responded, 'Okay, which part? Exasperated, I said, 'Michael, it’s a comedy, just laugh!’ It was getting late and we were all tired and a little punchy, but Michael was having fun with all this. 'Well,’ he began, 'if you want me to laugh, then you have to tell me a joke. But you said you wanted me to act like I’m watching a movie. Which is it you want?’ Finally I gave up and made a ridiculous clown face, which made him laugh.” — Todd Gray, photographer.
