Michael Jackson was and will remain the king of popular music for a long time. The whole world literally worshipped him for his songs and inimitable "moonwalk". He was chased by crowds of fans. Not every child's psyche is able to withstand such close attention. Most of these prodigies, having achieved success, spend the rest of their lives in memories. Michael Jackson was not one of them. Every song, every clip, and every scandal only added to his popularity. Hundreds of plastic surgeries, mental health problems and, finally, his own ranch, named exactly like Peter Pan's country. The very country where children never grow up. . . He allowed himself everything, because he had such a difficult childhood. No one could even imagine who Michael Jackson was and what a fractured nightmare his life had turned into. Read about who the king of popular music really was in Verena Vibeck's book!
