Jackson's love-hate relationship with the camera

Los Angeles: Some superstars love the cameras. Some hate them. But few have ever provided them as many memorable images as Michael Jackson. It started with his images as a precocious black pre-teen, wearing orange dungarees and an Afro, dancing and singing with the composure of an industry superstar. 

A few years later he had further developed his look. He took to wearing one glove, and period military jackets covered in sequins and precious stones. But even more than his unique costumes Jackson defined his style with his singular way of dancing. Best known for inventing the moonwalk, he also changed the way pop stars moved with his angular, fast-paced choreography, and superbly produced videos.
