Michael Jackson and Madonna

As the 1980s drew to a close, Michael became more and more aware that his number one opponent was not the prince, but Madonna. In fact, Michael and Madonna enjoyed each other for a long time. After all, both of them are perfect pop idols, so there is an unparalleled way for them to appreciate each other. What puzzles Michael is Madonna's superhuman ability to constantly change her image and her tactful means to deal with various "lawsuits" in the entertainment industry.

In fact, since Madonna raised the banner of resisting traditional ethics and opening up the concept of sex in the mid-1980s, conquered hundreds of millions of audiences with the image of "material girl" and gradually became the leading female singer in American pop music, she began to secretly take Michael as her challenge object.

Madonna has been chasing Michael's business acumen. When she started working in the early 1980s, she hired Freddy Derman as her manager, but she didn't know that he had just been fired by Michael. However, whether the relationship between Madonna and Deman can be maintained depends on whether Deman can tolerate her endless nonsense. "Freddie, Freddie-now!" Madonna is like a pile of mud to him.

Michael may respect Madonna, a strong woman in business, but he is also jealous of her. "She's not that good." When Madonna was nominated as 1989 artist of the year by Warner Corporation, Michael complained to a colleague. "We have to face the fact that she can't sing well. Although she dances well, her advantage is that she knows how to sell herself. That's it. "

Michael complained to Delio that Madonna didn't deserve the prize. He pointed out that this made him "ashamed." Then he suggested that MTV declare him "a generation of TV pioneer artists". He thinks the name suits him very well. "This will teach that bitch a lesson." He said this. Madonna has no antipathy to Michael. She admires his talent, his legendary quirks and, above all, his business acumen.

Michael is still weighing other issues. As the Oscar selection date approaches, he meets the old question: Who will have the face to accompany him to the party? Soon he thought of someone: Madonna.

199 1 03 18, that is, one week before the award-and the Sony deal will be announced soon-Michael and Madonna met in a luxury hotel called the Ivy League in Los Angeles. Jackson wears sunglasses with his logo. As soon as they sat down, Madonna leaned forward, pulled off Michael's glasses and threw them aside. "Now you are with me," she said. "I want to see your eyes." Seeing Michael staring at his cleavage all the time, Madonna grabbed his hand and put it on her chest for a few seconds, while Michael quickly pulled it back like something stung him.

When Michael and Madonna got up and left, the hotel manager shouted at the photographer, "No photos!" " Later, the famous photographer Winnie Jufonte recalled: "No photos? Madonna and Michael's people called us and said they would go. I went to eight photographers for live interviews. Is this a madhouse? They're in charge of everything. "

Just a few years ago, Zhu Fangte witnessed fans chasing Michael's Rolls Royce to the Avenue of Stars in Century City. Michael flirted out of the car and threw out a photo with his autograph. "Nothing has changed," said Zhu Fangte. "He is still the king of pop music-the most famous king of music."

On March 25th, the Oscar ceremony was held in the West Land Office. Madonna and Michael Jackson attended the grand event together. All the celebrities in Hollywood craned their necks to see Michael and Madonna sitting in the first row of the aisle.

Madonna at this time is more like Marilyn Monroe than ever before: she is wearing a dress designed by Bob Mack-low-cut, off-the-shoulder, with a small white metal disc tightly wrapped around her body, and the dress is covered with a mink shawl. Her lips were painted rose-red, and the golden curls gently set off her face, attracting all the eyes around her. She wore a $20 million jewel rented from Harry Winston around her neck. To match Madonna, Michael also wore a suit with a small white metal disc, a big diamond brooch, gloves and a pair of cowboy boots with gold edges, which was very eye-catching.

"I can't believe it," Madonna whispered to Michael. "It's incredible. What a wonderful night, I really had a good time. " Their costumes are really dazzling, and even Barbara walters, who has been tested and used to big scenes, is deeply moved. The TV host said, "They are like characters in cartoons. They look unattainable, extraordinary and greater than anyone else."

Columnist Amy Ackell asked Madonna how she got Michael to attend the awards party. "Michael is getting out and about more and more." She said with a big smile. But at the beginning of the party, when the camera was no longer aimed at them, the two broke up immediately.

Madonna invited Michael back to her home in Hollywood Hills, where they chewed their favorite popcorn and watched movies until dawn. When asked how the two superstars spent their time together, Madonna giggled. "We exchanged powder cakes, put powder on our noses and compared passbooks."

In fact, they have business to talk about-they plan to present a duet for Danger. But Madonna has some special circumstances. She insisted, "No one will buy silly folk songs or love duets." She told Michael, "Listen, Michael, if you want to do something with me, you have to listen to me, or we'd better not cooperate."

The first thing Madonna has to do is to completely change Jackson's image. "I want to reinvent him completely," she said. "Let him have a Caesar hairstyle-you know, short hair-I just want him to take off his buttoned boots, that's all."

Madonna has always been known for speaking out on sexual issues. She seldom hides her sexual orientation, so she is angry with Michael for shyly hiding his sexual orientation. She said to Michael, "I want to give Jose and Luis (two gay dancers who taught Madonna to debut) a week to talk freely with you. They will help you out of the box. Let you be reborn and have a new understanding of life. " Everything Michael says to her can only be "yes".

Michael endured Madonna's preaching about his sexual orientation and only hoped that she would sing a song with him. When he returned to loveland, he always remembered what she said and wrote a duet "In the Wardrobe" for them. But he didn't expect her reaction. He played the recording to her, and she screamed, "Are you kidding?"? I won't sing your song. " Michael rushed out of the studio angrily, and when he came back, Madonna had already left.

There is no doubt that Michael canceled his plan and didn't accompany Madonna to the premiere of her film Truth and Courage. Madonna shrugged and said, "Nobody cares. He is softer than I thought. " Soon, Madonna heard Michael call her "cow"-a word he often uses to describe women. "I'd rather be like a cow," Madonna retorted, "than a nasty queen from space."
