Michael Jackson would be 53 years old today, and this morning his sister Latoya posted this on twitter.
“HAPPY BIRTHDAY MICHAEL! I MISS YOU AND WE WILL ALWAYS LOVE YOU! YOU’VE GIVEN SUCH AN EXTRAORDINARY GIFT TO THE WORLD! WE WILL CHERISH IT!”
Yesterday Michael’s children along with him mother and father was amongst many who gathered at the Jackson family house in Gary, IN to celebrate his birthday. Hundreds of fans celebrated as well outside of Jackson’s childhood house on Jackson Street.
Jackson has been named the most successful entertainer of all time by the Guinness World records, and is best known for his contributions in the world of pop music and dance. He holds the record for having the most awards over any entertainer or recording artist. Michael has over a dozen of Grammy’s as well as the most No. 1 singles in the US to name a few.
