Michael Jackson - Birthday 50 - Michael Jackson

The King of Pop celebrated his 50th Birthday yesterday

"I'll just have a little cake with my children and we'll probably watch some cartoons"

Michael Jackson who has been divorced twice and has three kids tries his best to give his children a normal life. He told ABC News “I am letting them enjoy their childhood as much as possible ... I let them go to the arcade and go to the movies and do things. I think that comes naturally. I want them to get to do things I didn't get to do”. It seems Michael still regrets the fact that he lost out on his childhood, which has been cited by some as the reason he has been seen as unstable over the years.

Aside from the re-release of his mega album “Thriller”, Jackson hasn’t released new material since 2001. I’m sure the music industry will enjoy whatever he makes, though it may not be another “Billie Jean”. Michael said he is “looking forward to doing a lot of great things”... “I think the best is yet to come in my true humble opinion” he said.

He said recording “Thriller” and “Off the Wall” were the happiest times of his life. "That meant very much to me and seemed to be received so beautifully by the public and the world. You know, I enjoyed it very much".
