2002 | Michael Jackson’s Year In Review | the detail.

From the surface it appeared that Michael Jackson was riding another wave of career success during 2002, with a lauded appearance on the American Music Awards, a Grammy nomination and a high-profile performance on American Bandstand’s 50th anniversary. However, Michael Jackson’s personal and professional life would soon unravel. First came Michael Jackson’s very public dispute with his record label, Sony, and his accusations of racism against it’s chairman Tommy Mottola, then it was his numerous social blunders towards the end of the year. His botched up appearance in court that caused a tabloid sensation and the infamous baby dangling controversy in Germany. Michael Jackson’s eccentric behaviour had turned erratic, appearing to not only endanger himself, but innocent lives around him. This change in the global superstar had many asking, whatever happen to the real Michael Jackson? ✨ TIKTOK | @thedetailmj 🤳 INSTAGRAM | 🎙️ PODCAST | ▶️ WATCH NEXT 2001 | Michael Jackson’s Year In Review | 2000 | Michael Jackson’s Year In Review | 1993 | Michael Jackson’s Year In Review | 1987 | Michael Jackson’s Year In Review | 1984 | Michael Jackson’s Year In Review | 00:00 - 2002 Rewind 00:05 - 01/02 - American Music Awards vs. The Grammys 00:50 - 01/09/02 - Attends the American Music Awards 01:11 - 02/02 - Appears on the cover of VIBE magazine 01:15 - 02/09/02 - Attends the fund-raiser Art For Aids with Elizabeth Taylor 01:19 - 02/24/02 - Announces MDP investment 01:27 - 03/16/02 - Best man at the wedding of David Gest & Liza Minnelli in New York City 02:23 - 04/20/02 - Tapes a performance for Dick Clark’s 50th Anniversary of American Bandstand 02:28 - 04/24/02 - Performs during a fund-raiser for the Democratic National Committee held at the Apollo 03:14 - 06/14/02 - Visits the UK Houses of Parliament 03:33 - 06/14/02 - Attends fund-raising event organised by Exeter Football Club 03:59 - 06/15/02 - Attends a fan demonstration at the Sony Music offices in London 04:34 - 07/06/02 - Takes part in a fan protest at the Sony Music offices in Manhattan, New York 05:01 - 07/09/02 - Goes to a Harlem civil rights meeting to speak out against the music industry 06:27 - 08/06/02 - The birth of Prince Michael Jackson II, ‘Blanket’, is announced to the press 06:47 - 08/29/02 - Attends the MTV Video Awards, held at Radio City Music Hall, New York 07:25 - 11/02/02 - Accepts the World Arts Awards through a recorded video message 07:43 - 11/13/02 - Goes to the Santa Maria Courthouse to testify in the Marcel Avram trial 08:14 - 11/19/02 - Dangles Blanket over the balcony of his hotel suite in Berlin 09:13 - 11/19/02 - Takes Prince & Paris to the zoo with scarfs on their faces 09:50 - 11/21/02 - Presented with the Pop Artist Of the Millenium award at the Bambi Awards 10:26 - 12/03/02 - Goes back to the Santa Maria Courthouse to resume his testimony in the Marcel Avram trial 10:53 - 12/09/02 - Receives an award to celebrate the 20th Anniversary of Thriller during the Billboard Awards 🎵 MUSIC | Sourced from Epidemic Sound | #MichaelJackson #YearInReview #2002 ••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••­­­••••••••••• 🎬 We Create MJ Videos Every Week the detail. is a dedicated Michael Jackson channel.
