Growing up, I was surrounded by music by the Stones, Carole King, and the Beach Boys. I didn’t know who Michael Jackson was till I was about 13.
As you become a legend in the game, you build more doubters than you build supporters. And that’s fine. I think that comes with anything that’s challenging. I think it even comes with sports. The older that Michael Jordan got, I think the more doubted he became.
The full resources of the Department of Justice have been committed to the investigation into Michael Brown’s death.
I had a great start in television; the first thing I did was an episode of ‘Performance’ called ‘The Entertainer’ with Michael Gambon playing Archie Rice.
Those who peacefully gather to express sympathy for the family of Michael Brown must have their rights respected at all times. And journalists must not be harassed or prevented from covering a story that needs to be told.
Michael Bisping is a really tough competitor and a hard worker.
I really wanted Michael Jackson to be in the first Men in Black, but he didn’t want to be considered as an alien!
As a little kid, I was obsessed with Michael Jackson.
You look at a guy like Michael Jordan: I can’t believe there will be other basketball players like him.
I remember liking ‘A Cinderella Story’ with Hilary Duff a lot when I was younger. I loved that movie, but maybe it was because of Chad Michael Murray. It was a really sweet movie, and I always liked Hilary Duff.
The smartest thing I did was to stop going online. I’m the sort of person who will just look for the negative – Michael really can’t understand it, but that’s just the way I am. And with my bipolar thing, that’s poison. So I just stopped. Cold turkey. And it’s so liberating.
I can’t put this down. I’m reading it in Spanish but I am still having English lessons. It is a motivational book about basketball legend Michael Jordan. His determination was inspiring. It helps me focus and drives me on.
Michael Phelps is a good friend of mine, so I’m very supportive of him.
At first glance, Martha Stewart, queen of artfully distressed home furnishings, might not seem to have much in common with Michael R. Milken, one-time king of junk bonds.
I made a commitment and a promise to Ms. McSpadden, Michael Brown’s mother, that I will pursue justice with the family at every avenue, be it on the federal level or at the state level.
I never have crushes, apart from my husband Michael, I guess, because I was obsessed with him, and I didn’t speak to him for nearly a year. I kept going into the restaurant where he worked to look at him.
Michael is not only my friend, he’s my family.
Michael Caine, Tom Courtenay and Al Pacino made me want to act. I’ve always been interested in men with a vulnerable side.
Michael worked one day. Everybody was a little freaked out and nervous because he’s a really big star. We were already working with really big stars, but Michael is Michael.
I can’t remember what Michael Praed looks like. I’m too young!
I was on tour with Michael Jackson for a while; I did the ‘Dangerous’ and ‘History’ tours. I was also on tour with Diana Ross.
Sometimes a producer and an artist get together and they make magic like Quincy Jones and Michael Jackson. As far as my own music career – you could liken my chemistry with Timbaland to Marty Scorsese and Robert De Niro.
Michael Pollan is a champion. In all ways. A man of great integrity, humor, and common sense and kindness.
There are a lot of really funny guys who are very natural in what they do: Jonah Hill, Michael Cera, Seth Rogen.
I’m definitely inspired by Michael Jackson. I watch all his videos all the time. And Busta Rhymes, early Busta Rhymes – I really was inspired by him. He’s really the reason why I started rapping. Because all his visuals. I loved his videos when I was younger.
One of my favorite memories was one time Prince picked me up and said we were going to Michael Jordan’s birthday party.
I used to think of George Michael as being mechanical, like a scientist in a white coat, working in a laboratory, creating perfect harmonies, and all the while I was secretly admiring him.
I remember Michael Jackson once called to see if I was feeling okay because I had gone home sick from the set of ‘Goonies’; they’d shut down production for a couple days. I was so excited he called, but he didn’t leave his number.
However wack anyone thought ‘Whatzupwitu’ was, there’s not a lot of people that have footage of themselves dancing around in the clouds with Michael Jackson. I do have that forever.
In the case of ‘Blood Stone,’ the producers, EON, Michael Wilson, Barbara Broccoli, David Wilson and Gregg Wilson, had an idea for a story and had a lot of it done. And I came in, worked with them, fleshed it out.
As to the ‘St. Michael,’ the subject is very fine, but very difficult, so I doubt that I shall find easily amongst my pupils one capable of carrying it out satisfactorily even after my own drawing. In any case, it will be necessary for me to touch it up carefully with my own hand.
Michael Jackson dominates my heart forever.
Michael Jordan was like basketball Jesus.
Michael Jackson, the 49ers and the Lakers – that’s what I know about the ’80s.
The scene was attempted a second time, up on top of the fort, and cameras didn’t even roll. Michael, though he wasn’t admitting it, wasn’t sure how to shoot the scene.
Iconic artists are never straight ahead. Michael Jackson loved Elvis and Burt Bacharach, and uniquely blended both of them into what he did.
Any Michael Jackson song will make any dancer go nuts.
When I was young, I was obsessed with Michael Jordan and the Bulls. He’s the only person I get starstruck over. I don’t know what I’d do if I met him – I’d be in shock! That’s my dream.
When you think about such fine actors as Maggie Smith or Michael Gambon, they do all mediums. I think it would be quite sad and a bit dull just to have to stick to one. I like all of them.
I was working in Lexington when I recognized this actor, Michael Shannon, and I was like, ‘What do you do?’ He told me to get into a theater company, so I got into a theater company near my hometown. I was a carpenter there. And then I slowly got some work.
The way Michael Vick uses his legs and is able to throw out of the pocket really changes games. The way that Aaron Rodgers is able to sit in the pocket and make throws that not a lot of people can make – I hope I can be half what those guys are and emulate it into my game.
At an incredibly divisive point in pop history, Donna Summer managed to create an undeniable across-the-board experience of mass pleasure – after ‘Bad Girls,’ nobody ever tried claiming disco sucked again. It set the template for what Michael Jackson would do a few months later with ‘Off The Wall.’
I met Michael Jordan on a golf course! I don’t even know what to say. I’m still freaked out that I met him.
Michael Jackson believed in making music that made people feel good.
I got into politics when I was 12, back when George H. W. Bush was running against Michael Dukakis. We did a mock election in my social studies class, and I remember how so much of what was thought of as liberal made sense to me.
‘War and Peas’ by Michael Foreman, one of the great British children’s illustrators. His watercolours are so lovely you could almost eat them, just as members of the target audience have been trying to do for decades.
When I was a baby, my mom used to have a dance school, and she used to teach classes there. We didn’t have money for a babysitter, so she always brought me with her to the dancing school. Back then, I was already watching and listening to Michael Jackson for a long time.
Somebody approached me about working with Michael Jackson, and I did say no because I like working with new artists or people that I’ve worked with in the past. I can develop them from the ground up. There’s no set standard that I have to live up to or anything like that.
I’ve met Michael Keaton, John Favreau, Marisa Tomei – they’re all really amazing people and really, really professional. I’ve learned so much from just watching them operate on set.
I like to enjoy good music. I like Michael Jackson; I don’t care who wrote the songs.
Many American players – Paul Caligiuri, Claudio Reyna, Eric Wynalda, Kasey Keller, Tony Sanneh, Michael Bradley and Steve Cherundolo, just a partial list – have sought the income and challenge of Germany.
Michael Bradley has the stuff of leadership; he works hard and can break up the opponent’s play. However, that’s not enough to justify his philanthropic attitude towards possession, the generous portion of balls that he contributes to his foes. His sloppiness constantly culminates in unnecessary goals.
I think Lady Gaga is talented. Madonna is talented, and the flair that Michael Jackson had. He was talented! Whatever it is that they do, they must be doing something right. They do have an audience out there, so I respect that.
We’ve been blessed with four beautiful children. Michael, he doesn’t have much of a problem anymore. He is high functional, probably because of early intervention.
I have a wife and two boys. One is 18 and the other is 14. The 18-year old is getting ready for college next year and he made a decision to run track. He runs a lot like Michael Johnson.
Nothing is better than the moment you have Michael Bolton dressed as Forrest Gump and you see it in action.
