The King of Style

Michael Jackson

1958-2009

Just wanted to pay my respects to the man that was not only the King of Pop but the King of Style. The minute Michael Jackson debuted the white glove in the "Beat it" and "Billie Jean" video and showed his ability to pull off a single white glove while performing, every kid and every adult rocked that glove one way or the other. Ever since the death of Michael Jackson, many artists and actors have worn the white glove to pay their respects.

The glittery white glove was the must have accessory of the 80's. Your costume, or outfit was incomplete if you did not rock the white glove. NO ONE else could pull off wearing one white glove other than Michael Jackson. Some people tried to replicate the look by having to cut their socks and dipping it in glitter, bedazzling it or just having it customized professionally.

Now a days, a few stars have tried to duplicate his style; a few of them today are Lady GaGa, Beyonce and Ciara. They each wear their own version of the infamous white glove but only one person could wear it on the red carpet and it would still be considered cool - Michael Jackson.

Have you ever rocked the white glove in public or even in the privacy of your room while doing the moonwalk? lol. What is your favorite song by Michael Jackson?
