Michael Jackson's Most Unforgettable Moments - Careers high and low.

The harrowing, never-before-seen footage of the singer's 1984 Pepsi commercial accident












MAN ON FIRE
While filming a Pepsi commercial in 1984, Jackson's hair caught on fire. The next day -- with visible burn marks along his ear and cheek -- the singer went out to dinner with Webster TV star Emmanuel Lewis. It is believed that he first began dabbling in plastic surgery at this time.






MONKEYING AROUND
In 1985, Jackson rescued three-year-old pet chimp Bubbles from a cancer research clinic in Texas. Bubbles was a constant presence in Jackson's life -- and even shared a two-bedoom hotel suite with the singer in Tokyo during the Bad World Tour. In a 2003 documentary with Martin Bashir, Jackson admitted that Bubbles had become overly aggressive and he sent the chimp to an animal sanctuary when Jackson began to fear for his newborn son's safety.

STUNT MAN

In 1986, Jackson, then 28, posed for a series of photographs featured in The National Enquirer while inside a hyperbaric oxygen chamber. The publication claimed the singer slept in the chamber in an effort to live until at least 150 years of age.

HE'S BAD

Jackson -- here at a 1990 concert in New York City -- sparked controversy for his crotch-grabbing dance moves. In the 18-minute music video for "Bad," directed by Martin Scorsese, the singer was seen exhibiting motions he deemed were "choreography," but that angered many fans and critics.

MICHAEL GOES TO DISNEY

Jackson, then 33, and an 11-year-old Macaulay Culkin greeted Mickey Mouse at Disneyland in 1991. The child star -- who later testified at Jackson's child molestation trial, admitted to CNN that he had slept in the singer's bed a dozen times between the ages of 9 and 14, but insisted nothing sexual happened. "As far as I know, he's never molested me," Culkin said. "I find that unlikely. I think I'd realize if something like that would be happening."

TV PLEA

Taking to the television airwaves in 1993, Jackson defended himself against child abuse charges in a live TV appearance carried by major news networks including CNN.

KISS ME!

Jackson stole a smooch from first wife, Lisa Marie Presley -- whom he wed in 1994 -- at the 1994 MTV Music Awards in New York City. The couple called it quits after 20 months. In a statement to Us following his June 2009 death, Presley said she's struggling to cope now that her ex is gone. "I am so very sad and confused with every emotion possible," she said. "I am heartbroken for his children...This is such a massive loss on so many levels, words fail me."

HAPPY COUPLE

The King of Pop wed second wife Debbie Rowe in 1996 during the Australian leg of the HIStory World Tour. Rowe is the mother of Jackson's children Michael Joseph Jackson, Jr and Paris Michael Katherine. When the couple divorced in 1999, Rowe relinquished full custody of their children to Jackson.

WEDDING PARTY

The singer gave away pal Liza Minnelli at her fourth wedding in 2001 to David Gest. Liz Taylor was Minnelli's matron of honor.








MEET AND GREET

Jackson fed one of Siegfried and Roy's famed white tigers in Las Vegas.

BALCONY SCARE

Jackson famously dangled his newborn son, Prince Michael Jackson II -- also known as "Blanket" -- over a Berlin hotel balcony four stories up while greeting fans in November 2002. He later apologized for the incident, calling it "a terrible mistake."

GOING UP?

The performer offered a candid interview to ABC's Martin Bashir -- while riding on a Ferris wheel! -- that aired in February 2003. Among Jackson's shocking revelations to Bashir? He compared himself to Peter Pan and admitted to letting underprivileged children sleep in his bed. The Bashir documentary factored heavily into the singer's molestation trial. Jackson later admitted he felt betrayed by the video footage.

MUGSHOT

In November 2003, Jackson was booked on multiple counts of child molestation in Santa Barbara, Calif. Two years after he was officially charged, Jackson faced a five-month trial, after which he was acquitted on all counts.

CAR TROUBLE

The singer created a fan frenzy while standing on top of an SUV during his 2004 arraignment on child molestation charges in Santa Maria, Calif.

PAJAMA PARTY

Arriving late to his court appearance in Santa Maria, Calif., Jackson showed off pajama pants covered by a black blazer.

MAN IN THE MIRROR

Jackson's appearance changed drastically over the years. As for the change in skin color, Jackson told Oprah Winfrey it was the result of vitiligo, "a skin disorder that destroys the pigmentation of my skin," he said. "I have to even out my skin."

NEVERLAND

The performer purchased the 2,800 acre estate in Los Olivos, Calif., in 1988 to serve as his personal amusement park and home. Neverland's main house was closed in a cost-cutting measure in 2006. Though he transferred the estate's title to Sycamore Valley Ranch Company in 2008, he still owned an unknown stake in the property at the time of his death.

ALL COVERED UP

The germaphobic singer -- photographed wearing a surgical cap and mask exiting a Beverly Hills medical office in February 2009 -- went to great lengths to protect himself against illness.

Michael Jackson's odd frens and couplings.

MADONNA

Talk about stealing the show: Jackson took the Material Girl as his date to the 1991
Oscars, creating a worldwide paparazzi frenzy. Madonna, decked out in a Bob Mackie
gown and $20 million in diamonds, found her match in Jacko, who stepped out in gold-
tipped cowboy boots, a diamond brooch and not one, but two gloves for the starry
occasion. The two went on to er, the pair starred in 1978's The Wiz, an all-black
version of The Wizard of Oz.




CHER

Cher and Jackson maintained a connection over the decades after the pop star appeared
on The Sonny & Cher Comedy Hour with his older brothers as part of the Jackson 5. In
recent years, Cher (photographed with Jackson at a Dreamgirls opening party in 1983)
grew critical of the singer, especially as a parent. She told TV Guide in '03, "I
cannot imagine putting my children what he put his children through."





BROOKE SHIELDS

Linked in the '80s (and photographed with Emmanuel Lewis at a Grammy party in 1984),
Jackson once told Oprah Winfrey about their relationship: "We try not to be
everywhere, go everywhere. It's mostly at home. She'll come over. I'll go to her house
because I don't like going out in public."


DEBBIE ROWE

Who in the world is Debbie Rowe? The world found out in November 1996 when Jackson and
the 37-year-old assistant to the singer's dermatologist confirmed news that they were
expecting a baby together. Ten days after learning he was going to be a dad, the King
of Pop married his 6-months-pregnant companion in a civil ceremony Down Under.



TATUM O'NEAL

Though they disputed the nature of their relationship, this much is true: O'Neal
(pictured with Jackson in 1979) met the singer at an L.A. club when she was 12 and he
was 17, according to her book A Paper Life. The two developed a friendship, talked
frequently and, reportedly, shared a kiss at her home. Jackson later described in
ABC's Living with Michael Jackson documentary that O'Neal attempted to seduce him,
which she denied.



MACAULAY CULKIN

A frequent guest at Jackson's Neverland Ranch as a young child, Culkin struck up a
friendship with Jackson after appearing in his "Black or White" music video. In 2005,
Culkin took the stand in the pop star's molestation trial where he testified that the
singer never molested him as a child, calling the allegations "absolutely ridiculous."



DIANA ROSS

Ross first got a glimpse of Jackson's talent when she watched him and his older brothers perform at Motown head Berry Gordy's Detroit mansion. Jackson, then 10, even lived with his Supreme mentor, whom he once said he confided his "deepest, darkest secrets." More than a decade later, the pair starred in 1978's The Wiz, an all-black version of The Wizard of Oz.





LIZA MINNELLI

Longtime friends (photographed together at a party in 1982), Jackson made a love
connection for pal Minnelli, introducing her to her fourth husband, David Gest, at his
30th Anniversary Concert Celebration in 2001. Minnelli repaid the gesture by having
the singer serve as a co-best man and ring bearer at her star-studded 2002 wedding to
Gest.







ELIZABETH TAYLOR

Through all the child molestation allegations Jackson faced, he had the staunchest
support from his longtime friend Dame Elizabeth Taylor, who the singer told Oprah
Winfrey in 1993 was the one who anointed him the King of Pop – a moniker that stuck.
What bonded the seemingly mismatched pair? Taylor told Larry King in a 2006 interview
that "both had horrible childhoods."
