“We didn't ask for that information. We didn't need to know that information. We don't care.” —Rickey Smiley fires back at Oprah's latest comments about Whitney Houston

“Whitney Houston is somebody that you just don't talk about in the black community if you're in touch. You don't talk about the Obamas. You don't talk about Whitney Houston. We're sensitive about Michael Jackson, and you don't talk about the Kings. That's black royalty that you just don't talk about. We don't play about Whitney Houston, and I know I don't. Because I don't care what her downfall was. We all have downfalls. We all have things that we're struggling with. We all have people in our family that are struggling with addiction, and we have lost loved ones to addiction, whatever the case may be. But why would you bring stuff like that up?

Why is it when it comes to you and Gayle, right after Kobe Bryant died, Gayle interviewed Lisa Leslie, if I'm not mistaken, was asking her about a sexual assault case that he was found innocent of. And the fact that y'all are so out of touch with the black community and been rich so long that you don't even know not to talk about certain things in a certain kind of way. Because if you was really sincere and genuine about people not filming that stuff, then you might as well have told them to film because you brought it up and aired it out anyway.”

#Michaeljackson, the One & Only King of Pop and the greatest entertainer of All Time, left this world 17 years ago today! 🐐👑🤍🕊️
Michael Jackson remains an unmatched Genius and true Legend, whose visionary artistry, electrifying performances, and timeless music transformed the world of entertainment forever! The eternal King of Pop is the best-selling Solo Artist of All Time and the 2nd Best-selling Act after the Beatles, with over 500 Million records sold. He has had 13 Billboard Hot 100 No. 1 singles and is the first artist to have a top-ten single on the chart in six different decades! 'Thriller' (1982) is still the Best-selling Album of All Time, having surpassed 70 Million units globally, and was the first album ever to be certified 30× Multi-Platinum (2015) by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA), and later 34x Platinum. 'Thriller' made Michael the biggest Star in the world, revolutionizing the music video medium with the videos for its title track, "Beat It" and "Billie Jean". Michael's music broke both sales records and racial barriers across the planet! He is one of the most culturally significant artists of the 20th century, popularizing street dance moves, and in particular, the moonwalk, the robot, and the anti-gravity lean.

Michael was one of the greatest touring Acts in history. His Bad World Tour (1987–1989) drew 4.4 million fans across 123 shows and grossed $125 million, the first tour ever to surpass $100 million. The HIStory World Tour (1996–1997) topped it with over 4.5 million attendees and $165 million, making it the highest-grossing solo tour of the 1990's! His spectacular live performances set records that still stand today.

Michael Jackson rose to fame as the 11-year-old lead singer of the Jackson 5. The group, signed to Motown in 1969, made history as the first act to have their first four singles reach No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 including “I Want You Back,” “ABC,” “The Love You Save,” and “I’ll Be There.” The Jackson 5 sold millions of records, scored 17 Top 40 hits in five years, earned their own animated series, and became one of the biggest teen pop phenomena of the early 1970s, launching Michael’s legendary solo career.

Michael Jackson launched his solo career after leaving the Jackson 5 with the album Off the Wall (1979), which established him as a global superstar, followed with 'Thriller' (1982), which remains the best-selling album of all time, winning a record-breaking 8 Grammy Awards in one night, spending 37 weeks at No. 1 on the Billboard 200, and spawning 7 Top 10 singles. 'Thriller' was a global phenomenon, selling an estimated 70+ million copies worldwide and becoming the best-selling album of all time. It reached #1 on the weekly album charts in 13 major countries, including the US, UK, Australia, Belgium, Canada, Finland, France, Japan, Italy, Netherlands, New Zealand, Spain & Sweden!

After the release of 'Thriller' (1982), Michael focused on touring, embarking on the sold-out Victory Tour with The Jacksons in 1984 and recording sessions that eventually led to the release of 'Bad' in 1987. 'Bad' (1987), was the world's best-selling album of 1987 and 1988, and the first album to produce 5 US Billboard Hot 100 No. 1 singles including "I Just Can't Stop Loving You", "Bad", "The Way You Make Me Feel", "Man in the Mirror", and "Dirty Diana". 'Bad' has sold over 45 Million units and has been certified 11× platinum by the RIAA!

'Dangerous' (1991), Michael's 8th studio album, marked a new Era, with his music focusing on more socially conscious material, and including a broader range of sounds and styles. 'Dangerous' debuted at No. 1 on the US Billboard Top Pop Albums chart and was outpacing both Thriller (1982) and 'Bad' in sales, certified 4× platinum in the US within two months of its release! It reached No. 1 in 13 other countries and became the best-selling album worldwide of 1992 with Michael honoured as the World's best-selling Artist of the year Award at the 1993 World Music Awards. The album produced 4 global smash hit singles: "Remember the Time", "In the Closet", "Will You Be There" and "Black or White". 'Dangerous' has sold over 32 Million copies! It was certified 8× platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) in 2018. The album has been included in several publications' lists of the greatest albums of all time, and its artistry and thematic content have been praised as Jackson's finest!

'HIStory' (1995) spawned the mega hit "You Are Not Alone", the first of Michael's singles to debut at No. 1 on the US Billboard Hot 100. 'HIStory: Past, Present and Future, Book I' has sold over 30 million copies worldwide as a double album, and is the best-selling double album in history by a solo artist! In 1997 Michael released 'Blood on the Dance Floor: HIStory in the Mix (1997)' which became the best-selling remix album of all time, selling over 6 million copies worldwide! Michael's last album, 'Invincible" (2001) debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 with 363,000 first-week U.S. sales, topping charts in over a dozen countries and sold over 8 million copies worldwide! It has been certified 2× platinum in the U.S. for 2 over million units.

Michael’s catalog experienced a major revival following the April 2026 release of his history-making biopic 'MICHAEL'. The Antoine Fuqua-directed film, starring Jaafar Jackson, who was just amazing, triggered explosive growth in streaming and sales for Michael! His solo tracks more than doubled their previous best U.S. streaming week reaching 137.5 million on-demand streams, with top albums like 'Thriller', 'Off the Wall', and 'Number Ones' surging on charts and gaining hundreds of millions of additional plays globally. Michael rocked to the Top of the Global Digital Artist Rank, reigning for 22 days and still counting! He also reigned atop the Global Spotify chart for 16 days with "Billie Jean"! The biopic 'MICHAEL' has been a blockbuster success, grossing nearly $960 million worldwide as of late June 2026 and approaching the $1 billion milestone, becoming the highest-grossing music biopic of all time and surpassing Bohemian Rhapsody. This renewed interest has significantly boosted Jackson’s enduring popularity on the 17th anniversary of his passing.

Michael is one of the most-awarded artists in music history! He has won 39 Guinness World Records, including the Most Successful Entertainer of All Time and best-selling Album of All time! He has also won 13 Grammy Awards, including the Grammy Legend Award and the Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award; 12 World Music Awards including the Legend Award, the Diamond Award for album sales of over 100 Million and the Millennium Award for the Best-selling Pop Artist of the Millennium; 26 American Music Awards, including Artist of the Century; 6 Brit Awards and three presidential honors. Michael was inducted onto the Hollywood Walk of Fame in 1980 as a member of the Jacksons, and in 1984 as a solo artist. He was inducted to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Vocal Group Hall of Fame as a member of the Jackson 5 in 1997 and 1999, respectively, and as a solo artist in 2001. In 2002, he was inducted to the Songwriters Hall of Fame. In 2010, he was the first recording artist to be inducted into the Dance Hall of Fame, and in 2014, he was posthumously inducted into the Rhythm and Blues Music Hall of Fame. In 2021, he was among the first inductees into the Black Music & Entertainment Walk of Fame!

In 1992, Michael founded the Heal the World Foundation and has donated an estimated $500 million to charity during his life, recognised by Guinness World Records as the Artist who has supported the most charities in music history!

Michael Jackson is more than the King of Pop. He is a once-in-a-generation phenomenon who redefined music, dance, and global entertainment. With his unmatched artistry, record-shattering success, and cultural impact, he created a legacy so vast and singular that, even decades later, no artist has come close to replacing him. Michael remains irreplaceable...

🕊️✨ É isso... mais um 25 de junho.

O tempo passa, os anos seguem, mas a saudade parece encontrar novas formas de crescer. Hoje, é impossível não sentir a ausência de alguém que marcou tantas vidas e transformou a música para sempre. 😢

Sim, podemos chorar por sua partida. Mas então lembramos que ele nos deixou um presente eterno: suas canções, sua arte e as emoções que continuam unindo milhões de pessoas ao redor do mundo. ❤️🎶

Por isso, além das lágrimas, vamos celebrar. Vamos cantar, dançar e manter viva a alegria que ele espalhou por onde passou.

Michael, vamos tentar... sorrir, embora nosso coração esteja doendo. 🌹✨

Seu legado continua brilhando em cada nota, em cada passo de dança e em cada memória que guardamos com carinho.

Para sempre. 👑❤️ ... O AMOR. VIVE PARA SEMPRE.

17 years ago today, popular music lost one of its greatest artists.

We lost Michael Jackson at just 50 years old, and popular culture has never been the same since. The voice, the vision, the precision, the wonder, the once-in-a-lifetime artistry that turned pop stardom into high spectacle, short films into global events, and performance into a language all his own.

There will never be another Michael Jackson. 🕊️🌹❤️
