Halloween 2011

Once again another fun Halloween as MJ. I had dressed in my Dangerous tour outfit, since most of my costumers didn't get to see me in it. They enjoyed coming in and seeing me as the King of Pop. I even got to hand out candy to the children that were out getting candy. I always love the look on peoples' faces when they see me. Many ask me to bust a move, which I do. Then they are also shocked to see that I'm a woman.

After work, I went to a Halloween party with my mom and sister at a martial arts school. My sister's friend is the Master of the school, Master G's School of Martial Arts and Physical Fitness in Newark, NJ. The people who attended were students of all ages, parents and friends. The DJ, also an instructor, played Halloween related tunes like the "Monster Mash," the "Halloween" theme song and the mother of them all "Thriller." He even played "Ghosts" and along with his songs he had a monitor showing video scenes. You know I was glued with Michael Jackson. I moonwalked for the children and showed a few how to do it too. Then he began to play line dances such as the "Cha Cha Slide," Electric Slide," "The Cupid Shuffle," and more with my sister and mom. Then as the night winded down he played a number of Michael Jackson songs. I danced, took photos, and had a great time with great people.

Here are some photos:

Art, Peace and Music Festival 2011

Yesterday I had the chance to perform officially as "Mikette" for the first time in my hometown, Newark, NJ, for the 1st Annual Art, Peace and Music Festival. I wasn't intending on performing but given the opportunity, I jumped to it. I was definitely excited to show Newark my love and appreciation for Michael Jackson.

My boyfriend, Richie, and I set out on this adventure. We arrived at Washington Park and I was the only one in a costume. Of course, I was the alittle embarassed, but I got over it. People were waving at me and I made people smile just by being there. Then we decided to get something to eat while we waited for my friend, Lamar. He's the MJ dancer I met at NJPAC this past September. After we ate, we decided to make one last round around the festival to see if we saw him, but ran into the event coordinator. He asked me if I could dance like Michael and I was like "Of course!" Not realizing he was the event coordinator and he was about to put me on stage.






I was introduced to the audience as "Mikette." As I began to perform, it felt as if Michael's spirit jumped inside of my body and took over me. The music blasted "Billie Jean" and I became "Mikette." I gave them my all and they enjoyed me. Then Lamar came out and performed "Another Part of Me." Then he brought me back out with him to finalize the performance and we did an amazing job. I definitely enjoyed myself and the audience was mesmerized by our dance moves.

I was so happy I was able to help out the show by filling in a gap due to a performer not being available and gave a memerable performance. The festival in general was wonderful. They had fashion shows, spoken word poetry, singing and dancing. There were sculptures around as well from different artists in the Newark area. Marching bands that participated in the parade before the festival performed as well. It was such a beautiful event and I was glad I was not only there but a part of it as well.

Here are some photos from the day.

UNICEF Fundraiser with TTWNYC

Photobucket



I had and amazing time at a UNICEF fundraiser Thriller Halloween party in the Flushing section of Queen, NYC. I was a part of the honorary guests, Thrill The World NYC, to perform their version of the Thriller dance as a surprise to the guests at the party. It was my first time traveling to that part of New York and being that my MJ family was with me, the ride was so much fun. It was two subway trains and a bus ride away once I got into the city. We went right after practice and arrived in good time to prepare.

Photobucket


When we arrived, we found the house and it was so decked out in Halloween decor. They also had Michael Jackson themed items around as well from "Thriller." When we went downstairs, they had a disco type setup with the Jackson 5 playing on their flat screen television. As the guests arrived, we got zombified and found out what we need to do. We were performing in an Native American burial grounds which can be seen from her backyard. The guests were on the patio conversing as we ran out and got into position. The music began to play and we all came out. We gave the crowd our all and they loved it. Afterwards, we all ate some light refreshments and danced to Michael songs and line dances. My friend Jenna and I did the "Thriller" to a latin version that was played. Then we all had to head back to Manhattan because some had to go to Zombiecon, or home and I needed to head back to Jersey. We all had so much fun, I want to do it all over again. Special thanks to my MJ family from Thrill the World NYC for making my friend's vision come true.

Michael Jackson Tribute on ANTM All-Stars

We all know that Tyra Banks is a very close friend to the Jackson family and Michael Jackson. She was also featured in the morphing segment at the end of the "Black or White" video. So I can only imagine her reaction to Michael's death back in 2009. So weird how I always wanted to see this type of photo shoot done on America's Next Top Model. I really want to give snaps and claps for such a beautiful turn out. LaToya Jackson came as guidance and as a guest judge to help the girls nail Michael's persona in various eras of his amazing career. The outfits were from Michael Jackson's stylist Rushka Bergman's "The King of Pop" Costume Exhibition. Most of them did an amazing job, while others of course fell flat. As an MJ Tribute Artist, it is hard to fill his shoes and you can only come but so close. Plus they also had to make it fashionable. You can tell the girls who really did follow Michael, because they really represented him well. I really enjoyed this episode and so glad that nobody was eliminated because LaToya said they did their best to represent her brother, which is definitely not easy. I would love to share my favorites from the evening in my opinion. What do you think?

Start The Movement For MJ!

Mostly all of his life, Michael has been in the spotlight. We all know, even Michael knew, the consequences for being there. There are moments that made you shine because they noticed the good things you have done and then there are the snakes constantly biting at your ankles trying to bring you down. They do this with the power of money. They lose all kinds of respect and morals when money is involved.

Photobucket


Michael has faced all kinds of disrespect in his lifetime. From the lies and accusations to them calling him "Jacko." Til this day they still continue to call him that but this trial has opened new doors to the media to feed on. Just to get their ratings and popularity up, TMZ and other media sources have been releasing images of Michael after his death while in the hospital. These particular photos were used in the trial as evidence but they were so drastic they caused some of family members, including his mother, to leave the room. The media should not even be able to get their hands on them. There are even people trying to torture his children with them. Respect has gone out the window. We all know that TMZ can ruin people's life, but come on! TMZ has been exploiting Michael's death since day 1. They were saying he was dead before it was even confirmed. Then they post the hospital photo of him dead and now his autopsy photo! I'm fed up! Enough is enough!

Photobucket


All of us MJ family most continue to stick togther. We are strength in numbers and unstoppable. We can make a change. We may not be able to stop them all but someone needs to be made an example. JOIN THE MJ FIGHT! FIGHT FOR HIS RESPECT AND PRIVACY!

Invincible 10th Year Anniversary

Michael Jackson released his last studio album, Invincible on October 30, 2001. It was his first studio album in six year since the HIStory: Past, Present, and Future, Book I album. Only three singles were released from the album "You Rock My World," "Cry," and "Butterflies." Then there was a conflict between Michael and his label, Sony Music, which caused them to stop promoting the album. The album still managed to sell millions of copies, but was also considered a commercial failure compared to his previous album sells.

Photobucket


My friends, other MJ fans, and I are promoting a campaign to show our support for the Invincible album and helping the record sells boost for its anniversary. I already had the album since 2001, but I did manage to buy another one. I love the whole album because it shows how talented Michael is as he experiments with different types of flows.

Hardcore MJ fan!
