篇一：michael jackson英文介绍
Michael Joseph Jackson (August 29, 1958 – June 25, 2009) was an American recording artist, dancer, singer-songwriter, musician, and philanthropist. Referred to as the King of Pop, Jackson is recognized as the most successful entertainer of all time by Guinness World Records. His contribution to music, dance, and fashion, along with a much-publicized
personal life, made him a global figure in popular culture for over four decades. The seventh child of the Jackson family, he debuted on the professional music scene along with his
brothers as a member of The Jackson 5, then the Jacksons in 1964, and began his solo career in 1971.
In the early 1980s, Jackson became a dominant figure in popular music. The music videos for his songs, including those of "Beat It", "Billie Jean", and "Thriller", were credited with
transforming the medium into an art form and a promotional tool, and the popularity of these videos helped to bring the relatively new television channel MTV to fame. Videos such as "Black or White" and "Scream" made him a staple on MTV in the 1990s. Through stage
performances and music videos, Jackson popularized a number of dance techniques, such as the robot and the moonwalk, to which he gave the name. His distinctive musical sound and vocal style have influenced numerous hip hop, pop, contemporary R&B, and rock artists. Jackson's 1982 album Thriller is the best-selling album of all time. His other records,
including Off the Wall (1979), Bad (1987), Dangerous (1991), and HIStory (1995), also rank among the world's best-selling. Jackson is one of the few artists to have been inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame twice. He was also inducted into the Dance Hall of Fame as the first (and currently only) dancer from the world of pop and rock 'n' roll. Some of his other achievements include multiple Guinness World Records; 13 Grammy Awards (as well as the Grammy Legend Award and the Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award); 26 American Music Awards (more than any other artist, including the "Artist of the Century"); 13 number-one singles in the United States in his solo career (more than any other male artist in the Hot 100 era); and the estimated sale of over 750 million records worldwide. Jackson won hundreds of awards, which have made him the most-awarded recording artist in the history of popular music.
Aspects of Jackson's personal life, including his changing appearance, personal
relationships, and behavior, have generated controversy. In 1993, he was accused of child sexual abuse, but the case was settled out of court and no formal charges were brought. In 2005, he was tried and acquitted of further sexual abuse allegations and several other
charges after the jury ruled him not guilty on all counts. While preparing for his concert series This Is It, Jackson died of acute propofol intoxication on June 25, 2009, after suffering from cardiac arrest. Before his death, Jackson had been administered drugs including propofol and lorazepam. The Los Angeles County Coroner declared his death a homicide, and his personal physician pleaded not guilty to charges of involuntary manslaughter. Jackson's death triggered a global outpouring of grief, and as many as one billion people around the world reportedly watched his public memorial service on live television. In March 2010, Sony Music Entertainment signed a $250 million deal with Jackson's estate to retain distribution rights to his recordings until 2017, and to release seven posthumous albums over the decade following his death.
Michael Joseph Jackson (born August 29, 1958), also known as the "King of Pop" and "Wacko Jacko", is an American musician whose successful music career and controversial personal life have been at the forefront of pop culture for the last quarter-century. Michael Jackson has been regarded as the most successful pop singer of all time with estimated accumulative record sales of over 300 million.[1]
Michael Jackson began his musical career at the age of five as lead singer of The Jackson 5 and made his first solo recordings in 1971 as part of the Jackson 5 franchise.[2] He began a full-fledged solo career in 1979 and formally parted with his siblings in 1984.[3] Since then Jackson has recorded and co-produced the best-selling album of all-time[4] (Thriller with approximate worldwide sales of 60 million[5]), received thirteen Grammy awards[6] and charted thirteen number-one singles in the US. Michael Jackson has been awarded numerous honors, including the World Music Award for "Biggest Selling Artist Of The Millennium".[7] Michael Jackson is a double-inductee into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, as a member of The Jackson 5 in 1997 and in 2001 as a solo artist.[8]
Michael Jackson has been married twice and has three children. His first wife was Lisa Marie Presley, daughter of pop icon Elvis Presley, whom he married in 1994 and divorced less than two years later.[9] His second wife was Deborah Rowe, with whom he has two children, Prince Michael I (born February 13, 1997)[10] and Paris (born April 3, 1998).[11] Jackson divorced Rowe in 1999 and she gave up her parental rights in 2001. In early 2002 he had a third child, Prince Michael II (better known as "Blanket") who was born through surrogacy.
From 1988 to 2005, Michael Jackson lived in a 2,600 acre (11 km2) property called Neverland Ranch located in Santa Ynez, California. Jackson, a huge Disney fan, named his ranch after the magical kingdom of Neverland from the children's story "Peter Pan". He has built an amusement park and private zoo on the ranch, and frequently welcomes sick and poor children there to visit and sponsors charity drives for children. He states that he likes to be surrounded by children because of their sense of innocence, which he feels he lost too soon. Jackson's relationships with children, both his own and others, have been controversial. His sleepover parties at Neverland have received widespread critical media coverage, especially after he revealed that he sometimes slept in the same bed with several uelated children.[12] In 1993 and again in 2003, Michael Jackson was accused of child sexual abuse, though was eventually tried and acquitted of the latter allegations in 2005.

Michael, was one of a kind. I am thinking back towhen we met and many times that we spent togetherand whenever we were out together and there wouldbe a picture taken, there would be a caption of somekind. And the caption usually said something like,
"an odd couple" or "an unlikely pair". But, to us, itwas the most natural and easiest of friendships. Iwas thirteen when we met. And from that day on,our friendship grew. Michael always knew that he could count on me to support him or be hisdate, and that we would have fun no matter where we were. We had a bond, and maybe itwas because we both understood what it was like to be in the spotlight from a very, veryyoung age.
迈克尔是独一无二的那种人。现在回想起我跟他的过往，我们在一起的时光，无论何时何地，总是有媒体在拍照。而那些时刻，一些人总是把我们说成是“奇特的”或“不可能的”一对。但事实上，对我们来说，迈克尔和我的友情是最自然不过和最轻松的友谊。我13岁时认识他，自那天起，我们的友谊日渐加深。迈克尔一直都很信任我，相信我能支持他，做他的女友。我们无论到哪里都能玩得很开心。我们好像心有灵犀，这可能是因为我们在很小很小的时候就都明白在聚光灯下会是什么样子。
I used to tease him, and I'd say:
"You know, I started when I was eleven months old. You are aslacker. You were what, five?"
我曾经取笑过他说：“我11个月大的时候，就已经在娱乐圈摸爬滚打，再看看你，简直就是个小懒虫，你是5岁才开始的吧？”

Both of us needed to be adults very early, but whenwe were together, we were two little kids having fun.We never collaborated together, we never performedtogether or danced on the same stage. Although hedid try in vain one night to unsuccessfully teach methe "moon walk". And he just basically shook hishead and crossed his arms at my attempt.
我俩小小年纪就要做成大人的样子。但是当我们在一起时，就是两个贪玩的小孩子，真的非常非常开心。虽然我们从没合作过，从没在同一个舞台上表演过或一起跳过舞，不过我还记
得有一天晚上，他教我“月球漫步”，可我没有学会。而他只是摇了摇头，抱着手臂，微笑地看着我尝试。
We never filmed the video or recorded a song, but what we did do was laugh. It was acompetition to see who could make the other one laugh and his heart would just burst out ofhim when he was laughing. He adored it when I did silly imitations or told him stories about mylife.
我们从来没有一起拍过录像，或者录过歌，但是我们曾一起欢笑过。我们常比赛谁能笑得更多，或者谁能表现得更傻。迈克尔超级爱笑。他笑的时候就好像他的心都要跳出胸口了。当我做了傻乎乎的模仿或者和他讲我的生活故事时，他都会很喜欢。
MJ's laugh was the sweetst and purest laugh of anyone's that I had ever known. His sense ofhumor was delightful, and he was very mischievous. I remember the night before ElizebethTaylor's wedding and he had called me prior and asked if I would join him. He didn't want to bealone for all the festivities. And it was the night before the big day. Michael and I tried to sneakin to get the first peek of the dress. We were giggling like crazy, and we almost passed out inhis hysterics when we realized that Elizabeth was actually asleep in the bed. We thought shewas in an entirely different room. We had to laugh and sneak out.
迈克尔的笑声是我听过的最甜美、最纯净的笑声。他的幽默感也令人愉快，他还很顽皮。泰勒婚礼的前一晚他最先打电话给我，问我是否能陪他一起参加活动。他不想孤单一人出席这些活动。我还记得我们参加伊丽莎白·泰勒婚礼的前一晚，他和我尝试着偷偷溜进存放婚纱的房间，去偷看伊丽莎白的婚纱。我们一路狂笑，歇斯底里得几乎都要笑昏过去了，直到我们发现伊丽莎白就在那间房里睡觉，然后我们就笑着偷偷溜出来。我们原以为她会睡在另一个房间！

And then, at the point of the wedding when therewas the first dance, basically, we had to joke that wewere the mother and father of the bride. Yes, it mayhave seemed very odd to the outside, but we made itfun and we made it real. When he started wearingthe glove, I was like,
"What's up with the glove?".I(本文来自：WwW.xiaOCaofAnweN.Com 小草范文 网:michaeljackson追思会议员英文发言)'m like.
"Look, if you are going to hold my hand, itbetter be the non-gloved one because sequins reallyhurt me." He just shaked his head and he would just smile. H
e loved to be teased. Seeing himsmile made you feel like everything was going to be all right.
而第二天的婚礼上，当第一支舞曲开始时，我们还开玩笑说自己是新娘的父母。是的，虽然这在外人听起来可能会非常奇怪，但我们过得超级开心，超级真实。当他开始戴那只手套，我还问：“你戴那个手套干什么？如果你要牵我的手，那么最好别戴手套，因为你那上面的小金属片很扎手。”他则只是摇摇头并笑了笑，迈克尔喜欢被人开玩笑。看着他微笑，你就会觉得一切都会好起来。
To the outside world, Michael was a genius with unchallenged ability. To the people who werelucky enough to know him personally, he was caring and funny, honest, pure; non jaded andhe was a lover of life. He cared so deeply for his family and his friends and his fans.
对外人来说，迈克尔是一位天才，有着无与伦比的才艺。而对那些足够幸运的可以私下了解他的人来说，他富有爱心，非常有趣、真诚、纯洁，不知疲倦同时对生活充满了爱。他对他的家庭、朋友以及粉丝都非常关爱。
He was often referred to as the "King", but the Michael that I knew always reminded me moreof the little prince.
他常被誉为“王者”，但对我来说，他更像是一位小王子。
偶像励志英语演讲 第11期:波姬·小丝在迈克尔·杰克逊追悼会上发言(4)
Thinking of him now, I'd like to share a passagefrom the book: What moves me so deeply about thissleeping prince is his loyalty to a flower. The imageof a rose shinning within him like the flame within alamp, even when he is asleep. And I realized that hewas even more fragile than I had thought. Lampsmust be protected. A gust of wind can blow themout.
在缅怀之际，我想读一段选自《小王子》中的文章：在这个熟睡的小王子身上，最让我感动的，是他对一朵花儿的忠贞。这朵玫瑰的影像，即使在他入睡时，仍然在其身上透出光芒，就像一盏灯的火芯一样。我意识到他比我想象中更脆弱。灯，是必须被守护的。一阵风便能把它们吹灭。
Michael's sensitivity was even more extraordinary than his talent, and his true truth residedin his heart. As the little prince also said,
"Eyes are blind. You have to look with the heart:what's most important is invisible." Michael saw everything with his heart. To his family, hisbrothers and sisters, Katherine, Joe, and to his children, Prince, Paris, Blanket, my prayers arewith you.
迈克尔的情感甚至比他的天赋更加杰出。他的真理深藏于心。就像小王子也曾说过的，“要像一个盲人一样，才能看清自己的心胸，因为最重要的东西是无形的。”迈克尔用他的心来看待每一件事。对于他的家庭，他的兄弟姐妹，凯瑟琳·乔，还有他的孩子，普林斯、帕里斯、“毯子”我为你们祈祷。
Michael's favorite song was not one of the countless masterpieces that he gave us. But it was asong that Charlie Chaplin wrote for the movie Modern Time. It's called Smile. There is a line inthe song that says:
"Smile, though your heart is aching." Today, although our hearts areaching, we need to look up where he is undoubtedly perched in a crescent moon, and we needto smile.
迈克尔最喜欢的一首歌曲不是来自他留给我们的无数的杰作，而是查理·卓别林为电影《摩登时代》写的《微笑》。其中有一句歌词是“微笑吧，尽管你的内心在痛苦”。今日，虽然我们的内心痛苦，我们也要向前看，向上看，也许在月亮上，迈克尔还在看着我们。我们需要微笑。
