TRIBUTE

Shocking news just minutes ago...


Michael Jackson just died...
I wasn't a big fan at all, and was very little or not even born when he was really big. And of course his life was defined by controversy.
For me, he represented all the excess and genious of the 80s...and the fact that having everything doesn't necessarly mean happiness, health or good mental shape.
But he was definitely an artist, and an icon, with a huge influence in music, art, dance, fashion...


I always thought of him, his attitude, the way he danced and his baroque style when I saw a Balmain jacket. And also thought of all the paradoxes I wrote about above...

I'm sure he will still be very influential on arts, and will always live on many people's minds and hearts...you know, icons never die, artists live forever...

    I wish I had gone to one of his concerts... it must have felt like a magic experience seeing him live, dancing and singing
