5. Michael Jackson
Michael Jackson is truly a legend. He debuted in the spotlight at just 5 years old, with his brothers, in the Jackson 5 band. Sadly, physically and emotionally abused by a father obsessed with control, little Michael never managed to mature.
Michael’s father, who worked in a steel factory, always dreamed of becoming a successful musician. When this didn’t happen, he decided to do whatever it took to make his children famous. He tried to control his children’s careers, even after they were adults. The struggle for control of the Jackson family’s wealth was a constant source of conflict.
