Cristiano Ronaldo shows off his dance moves, including the moonwalk
Tormented defenders across Europe would attest that Cristiano Ronaldo has got a few moves, but it turns out the Real Madrid forward has even more than we knew.
A new advert for the Portugal international's range of footwear features CR7 busting moves that would have put Michael Jackson to shame and have Justin Timberlake cooing.
The moonwalk, break-dancing, toe stands and back-flips all appear to be in Ronaldo's locker and will have the producers of Strictly Come Dancing scrambling for his agent's number when they're next booking celebrities.

ENGLISH TRASLATION:
LL: LUCIANA LOPEZ - I: INTERVIEWER
LL: When you love someone ... I do not know ... there are no words.
I: It's came naturally for you, so to speak.
LL: Yes, of course
I: And how was that?, You were chosen? or you have been filed by someone?
LL: No, no, there was no previous agreement. I was on the right side, in the front row, I was with a friend of mine, and we asked an aide to Michael if we could go to dance and he said, "we shall see later," Well, that's all. We had to wait if he would have chosen us. After he approached a young lady, talking and pointing at me. Then she came to me, asked me my name, my age and if I wanted go dancing. At that moment I could not believe it, then she took me with her and told me what I had to do.
I: What were the instructions, what you were supposed do at that time?
LL: Just go up and hug him, if I wanted, and tell him what I wanted.
I: So they have given you a time to be with him.
LL: Yes
I: How old are you?
LL: Sixteen
I: and where do you live?
LL: Belgrano
I: and your classmates, I suppose they will be dying of envy for this, right?
LL: They were all out of control, when I arrived at school, they told me: "Luli, I can not believe it!" "But, how did you?" In short, they do not believe it.
I: Not even mom and dad, no one, huh?
LL: No, they could not believe it.
I: It is long time that followed Michael Jackson?
LL: Yes, I love Michael Jackson, a long time, but ...... when I saw it Friday,
I: We have the video
LL: to me, it seemed to me going mad. He enchanted me.
I: we look at pictures, again
LL: Friday I fell in love.
I: So Friday is the time when you're in love. We see when you're up on stage and you are with Michael, and they are recording ... the precise moment when you jumped on him, and you, not you left you go, him. In addition, we have also heard and seen, on the maxi screens the smile of Michael Jackson, he seemed involved, right? He pandered to you.
LL: Yes, but I could not see anything, I do not remember anything.
I: You were in shock
LL: The truth is that I was the one to ask my classmates: "Tell me what I did because I do not remember anything" and they laughed. I could not even see him very well at face.
I: He put close up the microphone to you, and you told him "I love you", I was there and I heard this.
LL: Yes, so they told me, which seemed a super romantic "I love you"
I: So, he could not sing any more, because you have removed the microphone to him, and also because you had taken his mouth.
LL: Oh, yes, yes.
I: Tell me how he is, close up, he had a lot of makeup?
LL: Well, yes, he had the makeup, the usual makeup he uses. But I could not see well. The truth is that I wanted to see, but I could not because he turned.
I: and perfume, he had it?
LL: Yes, a delicious perfume.
I: Ah ok. Luly Well, congratulations for having achieved your dream.
LL: That aside, Saturday I dreamed with him, for real.
I: Did you manage to sleep after what has happened?
Editor's note: Thomas Mesereau Jr. is an attorney with Mesereau and Yu, LLP. He was Michael Jackson's attorney during his 2005 child molestation trial.
HLN: Where were you when you got the news that Michael Jackson had died? What was your reaction? Tom Mesereau : I learned of Michael Jackson’s death as I was leaving the United States District Courthouse in Los Angeles. My law firm partner, Susan Yu, and I were defending a high-profile criminal case involving allegations of mortgage fraud. Our client, Joseph Babajian, had been the highest-grossing real estate agent in the country and had sold homes to numerous celebrities, including Janet Jackson. Randy Jackson’s girlfriend, Taunya Zilke, was assisting our defense team as a paralegal. She approached me in the hallway as we were leaving. Her face was ghostly pale. She said “Michael just died.” I hugged her, but didn’t quite believe it. A few moments later, two police officers said the same thing as I was leaving the courthouse. I still hoped this was just a rumor. I immediately telephoned my office to check messages. My voicemail was completely full with calls from all over the world. At that point, I knew it was true. I was horrified and shocked. Numbness and sadness competed within me. I maintained my composure enough to respond to some media requests. It was a sad day. HLN: You had a front-row seat to Michael’s low points, having represented him during the 2005 child molestation case. His reputation took a huge hit even even though he was found not guilty. How much do you think that chapter in Michael’s history impacts how people think of him now? Mesereau : The year 2005 must have been the lowest point in Michael Jackson’s life. He was being threatened from many different directions. The criminal charges were extremely serious and could have sent him to prison for many years. He was very suspicious about who would ever engineer such a serious and false criminal indictment. Michael was suspicious of lawyers, business managers, advisers, business partners, and many others, who he felt were trying to take advantage of his difficulties. He feared for the welfare of his children. The charges were as ridiculous as they were serious. Michael Jackson was accused of masterminding a criminal conspiracy to abduct children, falsely imprison their family, and to commit criminal extortion. He was also charged with multiple acts of child molestation, attempted child molestation and providing alcohol to children. Unfortunately, there still were misguided individuals who assumed he was guilty of something. Nevertheless, to me, the world reaction to the acquittals was very positive. For example, I gave numerous presentations around the country after the jury verdict. I was well-received by people of all ages, races, nationalities, etc. There appeared to be a universal sense of relief that he was vindicated by a very conservative jury in Santa Maria, California. I believe that concerns about these false allegations are rapidly diminishing with time. I also believe that Michael Jackson will be largely remembered for his extraordinary accomplishments as an artist, humanitarian and father. HLN: How do you think Michael should be remembered now? Mesereau : First of all, Michael Jackson should be remembered as one of the most gifted artists in history. His talents and accomplishments in music, dance, choreography and entertainment may never be surpassed. However, Michael Jackson was much more than a creative genius. He was committed to an extraordinary life of generosity, compassion and humanitarian acts. He wanted to use his gifts to make the world more kind, considerate and loving on many levels. On a personal note, I consider Michael Jackson to have been one of the kindest, nicest individuals I ever have had the pleasure to meet. It was an honor and privilege to have been his lead criminal defense counsel in such a dark period.
HLN: What is your fondest memory of Michael? Mesereau : My fondest memory of Michael Jackson relates to my late sister, Marigene Mesereau. Approximately three months before I presented the opening statement in Michael Jackson’s criminal trial, I received devastating news that my sister was terminally ill with cancerous tumors in her brain and lungs. The physician’s plan was to remove her brain tumor first. Following this delicate surgery, Marigene was transported to her home in Irvine, California. As she approached her front door, she noticed that the door was covered with the largest, most colorful bouquet of flowers that she had ever seen. She could hardly make it through the door. Attached to this bouquet was a poem to her written by Michael Jackson.
HLN: What do you think Michael would think of the lives his kids are living now? Mesereau : This question reminds me of the numerous times during the trial when Michael Jackson would telephone me between 3 and 4 in the morning to discuss his children. Michael loved his children more than anything else. He would tearfully express his fear of what might happen to him if he were convicted and imprisoned. I was retained as Michael’s lead defense counsel nine months before the trial started. During those nine months, as well as the five-and-half months of trial, I carefully observed his interaction with his children. Michael Jackson was very careful to shield his children from the media and any other influences he thought might complicate their lives. He did not want his children to be exposed to family conflict or troubling outside pressures. He carefully ensured that they received a top-notch, formal education through private tutoring. As an avid reader and book collector, Michael wanted his children exposed to great works of literature, history, philosophy, science, etc. He also wanted his children to understand nature, different cultures and to garner a compassionate, humanitarian concern for the planet. Michael Jackson’s children were his top priority. He wanted them to live happy, fulfilled lives. I believe Michael would be extremely proud of the beautiful, intelligent, poised children he raised. He would be happy that they have been exposed to his loving, kind mother, Katherine. Obviously, he would likely have concerns about the pressures the worldwide media have created. These children live in a media-created fish bowl. I believe Michael Jackson would be very wary of this reality.
Michael Jackson would be proud of the education and social conscience reflected in his children. He would want them to use their talents and resources to heal and change the world in a positive manner. I predict that they will follow in their father’s footsteps.
4、孌童案——孌童的人的心裡是變態的,而我不相信Michael Jackson會變態!我知道藝術音樂是不會騙人的,你沒有一顆善良的心,沒有一顆對生活熱愛的心,Michael Jackson絕對不可能寫出Heal the world,We are the world,地球之歌,童年等等這樣偉大的歌曲出來!這樣的人你們居然說他是孌童的變態……!!!
近日,美國路易斯安那和明尼蘇達州發生兩起員警開槍打死黑人事件,激起全美各地民怨沸騰,多地發動遊行示威,示威地點更遠至倫敦。於是,倫敦時間7月8日,大批市民聚集市中心,他們高舉Black Lives Matter“黑人的命很重要”示威牌,高唱邁克爾傑克遜經典反種族主義歌曲《他們不在乎我們》(They Don't Care About Us)!!……MJ的抗議之聲從未如此有力,他的影響力從未消減!
在推特上, #TheyDontCareAboutUs (他們不在乎我們)是一個標籤。在弗格森,他們將這首邁克爾傑克遜瘋狂放出車窗外。上週末,在紐約市和伯克利,抗議者們合唱了這首歌。在巴爾的摩,摩根州立大學合唱團帶來了一個神奇的瞬間,他們用演唱傑克遜的《治癒世界》(Heal The World)來回應抗議。
It is sad to say that today, more than ever, Michael Jackson’s message is still current and more so his message is still used to put a voice to the voiceless.
The world has experienced and continues to experience more terror, death and hatred than a decade ago. With the disgusting terrorist attacks on our neighbourhoods like in Paris, Brussels, Istanbul, Baghdad, people around the world are asking for peace. In every one of those cities attacked, people gathered together and started to sing, which can be seen as our anthem for peace: ‘Heal The World’!
The song was released on November 23, 1992 and the lyrics of the songs are still today in context of our society’s issues.
Heal The World Make It A Better Place For You And For Me And The Entire Human Race There Are People Dying If You Care Enough For The Living Make A Better Place For You And For Me
The song was also sang for the victims of the homophobic terrorist attack in Orlando. It is clear that the message has no color, gender or religion!
‘Heal The World’, ‘Man In The Mirror’, ‘Keep The Faith’, ‘What More Can I Give’, ‘Cry’, ‘We had enough’ and ‘We are the World’ are songs that people around the world are relating to! All with a powerful message.
The hatred doesn’t stop there! America is experiencing struggles with racial behaviour! With the killing of many black citizens across the country, a movement has emerged called ‘Black lives matter’, which focuses on the fact that Black Lives Matter TOO.
People around the world have supported the movement ‘Black lives matter’ like here in London. One of the messages that was put through the street was “They Don’t Care About Us”. Michael Jackson denounced this matter over 25 years ago and still today, people are singing the same anthem in the streets around the world!
Tell me what has become of my life
I have a wife and two children who love me
I am the victim of police brutality, now
I’m tired of bein’ the victim of hate
You’re rapin’ me off my pride
A week ago, people marched in the street of London holding ‘Black lives matter’ banners and singing Michael Jackson’s ‘They Don’t Care About Us’:
.
During an interview for Iconic Magazine, Spike Lee revealed that the first section of the video which takes place in prison, was to draw attention to the fact that most of the jails in America are filled with Black men, who he believes are the victims of racial oppression.
Knowing this, the video could be released today and would be still relevant – even more, you could
rename it “Black Lives Matter”:
It is clear that Michael Jackson was more than a pop star! More than a dancer! More than a singer! More than an Entertainer! He was clearly the voice of the people! The voice of the disadvantaged! The voice of the oppressed! He was the message carrier of our time! “I realised that many of our world’s problems today – from the inner city crime, to large scale wars and terrorism, and our overcrowded prisons – are a result of the fact that children have had their childhood stolen from them. The magic, the wonder, the mystery, and the innocence of a child’s heart, are the seeds of creativity that will heal the world. I really believe that. What we need to learn from children isn’t childish. Being with them connects us to the deeper wisdom of life, which is everpresent and only ask to believe. They know the way to solutions that lie waiting to be recognised within our own hearts. Today, I would like to thank all the children of the world, including the sick and deprived… I am so sensitive to your pain. (…)” – Michael Jackson´s speech at the 35th Grammys, 1993
1979年,我上高中,青澀而幼稚,而MJ已經開始了他無人可以企及的輝煌事業。但是當時國門剛開,全國還在為鄧麗君的歌是不是黃色歌曲而展開大討論,為李穀一的《鄉戀》是不是靡靡之音而在爭論不休。雖然身在北京,但仍然無法接觸到MJ的歌曲。我記得第一次在北京五道口外文書店(現在早已拆遷得無影無蹤了)看到《Off The Wall》和《Bad》已經是八十年代末九十年代初了(具體記不清了),那時我已經大學畢業參加工作好幾年了。
我經常去五道口外文書店逛,因為附近北京語言大學有許多留學生的緣故,在那個年代,五道口外文書店會進一些相對新潮的書籍和音像製品。每次在音像製品的櫃臺前都會停留很久,每次看到上述這兩盤磁帶我雖然明確的知道自己不會買,但還是被其前衛的封面設計吸引,總覺得很特別。後來陸續看到了《Dangerous》、《HIStory》,特別是《Blood on The Dance Floor》,其MJ身穿紅色套裝,在黑白相間的類似國際象棋的棋盤上振臂吶喊的的封面給了我強烈而深刻的印象,以至後來每每和別人偶爾談論MJ,眼前浮現的第一印象就是這張專輯的封面。
整整一天,什麼也沒幹,一直在惡補有關MJ的知識,終於瞭解了MJ是一個怎樣的人,瞭解了他的偉大的作品;終於知道什麼樣的音樂才能唱進你的內心世界,什麼樣的作品能夠讓你流淚、感動、崇拜;終於明白為什麼他是王!想想看,二十幾年前寫的歌,現在依然可以打動一個歷經風雨,已過不惑之年的人的心,所有歌曲的配器絲毫沒有陳舊感,相反很新潮、很現代,那該需要什麼樣的才華和真情才能做得到,更何況不是一首,而是N多首歌。反觀國內的所謂大牌歌星,很多人只能說得出一首成名曲,而MJ好聽的歌太多太多了。MJ的MV百看不厭,特技的運用,讓現在所謂的大片汗顏!我大學畢業一直從事所謂的計算機行業,做過8年的硬體,寫過十幾年的軟件,深知在MJ拍攝傳世經典MV《Black or White》的年代能做出那樣的鏡頭是多麼的不容易,如果不是天才是無法創造出這樣的藝術作品的,因此,MJ的MV和歌曲在那個年代無法逾越,在現在,我們對他有的也只是仰止。現在再回過頭來看看國內的MV,真是業餘的很是可以!
具有諷刺意味的是,《We are th world》、《Heal the world》、《HIStory》、《Bad》、《Another Part Of Me》、《I Just Can't Stop Loving You》這些我極其熟悉的歌,在MJ離世之前我居然並不知道是他的歌,特別是《HIStory》和《Another Part Of Me》,所有在上世紀九十年代經常去迪廳的人都應該是非常熟悉的。由此可見,只要這個世界還有音樂,你就無法避開MJ,現在想來不知道是應該欣慰還是應該悲傷。
看過兩遍《This is it》,回來和女兒談起電影中的Smooth Criminal的MV,說:“我覺得MJ演戲一般,感覺有點假”,我女兒因為明年高考沒有時間去電影院看,所以她並不知道MJ在其中的表現,但她聽我說完後說了這樣一句話讓我感到欣慰,她說:“那說明MJ真的是一個真誠的人,他的內心太幹凈了,所以他不會也從不需要掩飾自己,所以他不會表演。因為我聽過這樣一種說法,演員中演技過好的人其實都不太真誠,因為這種人會把自己掩飾得非常好,你並不知道他內心裡真正的想法是什麼”。姑且這樣的言論有些偏激,但我也認為MJ是一個真誠、幹凈的人。
Since 2011, World Vitiligo day is happening on June 25th in Honour of Michael Jackson.
LOVEauthentic invites anyone with Vitiligo to post a picture or message on the website on June 25th to make people aware of the condition.
取材最容易,但也最難下筆的藝人之一,就是Michael Jackson,肇因於他的作品與表演紀實從他的幼年起就開始深植人心(The Jackson 5),一直到意外辭世,他留下了太多的驚嘆與不捨在人世間,更堆積了如山之高的成就在演藝界。the「King of Pop」的名號是否人如其實呢?在以下簡短的追思與回顧中,或許我們可以找到答案。1
Michael Joseph
Jackson,1958年生於美國Gary city,Lake County,Indiana,在家排行第七,若以The Jackson 5於1967年推出第一首單曲《Big Boy》起算,他在10歲前就已出道,並且身負重任,擔當主唱的角色,若提起《I'll Be There》(1970年)這首歌,想必大家一定印象深刻、讚不絕口﹝Mariah
Carey 翻唱過﹞,首次欣賞此表演的觀眾很難不被他的表演所感動、吸引,且驚訝於年幼的Michael Jackson的歌唱功力竟已可以與一般成人歌手分庭抗禮,甚至猶有過之,自然而然的台風與真摯、渾然天成的表演,注定了他未來的豐功偉業。
有一首歌,我們聽過,在年輕的歲月中,有一首歌,我們再次聽見,在我們的驚天動地中,這首歌就是《We Are The World》,不就是他帶給人世間最美的喝采嗎?身為作曲者之一的他,在1985年與Lionel Richie共同譜寫出這首世界之歌,超越種族與世界之牆,即使到了2010年,我們仍然別無選擇,還是用這首歌作為世界公益之曲(海地震災),只是這一次,他因故未能出席這首歌的再次發表。我不禁沉思,最貴的財富是愛,最大的力量是愛,最美的溝通是音樂,Michael Jackson留下了全部給世界。
