entertainers. his brilliance as a performance also was paired with a tragic and in many ways，sad personal life.”michael jackson was a singer，songwriter，dancer and celebrity icon with a vast catalog of hit records and countless awards to his credit. beyond that，he had transfixed the world like few entertainers before or since. as a solo performer，he had enjoyed a level of superstardom previously

time.michael joseph jackson was born on august 29,1958.the fifth and youngest son of steelworker joe jackson，michael displayed a talent for music and dance from an extremely young age. his father

1970，making the jackson 5 the first group in pop history to have their first four singles top the charts. later in 1972，jackson had his first number one solo single，ben. in 1977，he met producer/composer quincy jones for the first time. with jones producing，jackson recorded his first solo album as an adult，off the wall.released（发行） in 1982，the quincy jones produced thriller refined the strengths of off the wall：the dance and rock tracks were more driving，the pop tunes and ballads softer and more soulful，and all of it was recognizably michael. there was no surprise that thriller was a hit；what was a surprise was its staying power .jacksons duet with mccartney，the girl is mine，was a natural single choice，and it peaked at number two；then billie jean and the van halen track beat it both hit number one，for seven and three weeks respectively.michael jackson died from heart disease on june 25 at age 50.29according to the passage，which of the following is not true?abarack obama
