Celebrating Michael's birthday with loveliness and joy. A short clip (2m 34s) from the Hayvenhurst interview.

I just watched this entire thing again a few days ago. Not only is he adorable and sweet, he is also just so funny as a brother. I love seeing his personality in this. One of my favorite parts is toward the end when LaToya asks him, "Are you wet?" and without missing a beat he says, "Of course, honey" in a voice I always assume is an impression of Mae West lol. He's just so funny.

I do also find it just fascinating how when LaToya is saying she wants to have the career he has, he looks almost visibly annoyed lol. I could dissect that in a million ways, but I'll resist the urge to spare you all.

no big deal I was being facetious since my heart is constantly doing flips over pictures of him.

oh, that's useful. I'll have that one!

I understand! I am completely fascinated by it

I am but also starting to get kinda exhausted. It's so freakin' weird. Every time I pick up a new nugget of info the weirdness increases. Oh, for the days of Our Price records, lol.

I saw a notification in this thread and before I even looked I screamed "OMG NO!" because I am feeling particularly weak and ruined over Michael today...

I am so in love

[staywild23]

I just let out what may be the deepest sigh of my life. I am so in love with him and it is exhausting.

ps: does this hair tuck do for you what other hair tucks do? Or does this tuck play a different role in your life? lol

Massively different.

Hair tucks (and eye blinks, obvs) from BWT 1987 are the pinnacle of everything and cannot even be discussed. At all.

BWT 1988 hair tucks are delightful and gorgeous and to be treasured and adored at every possible moment.

This Thriller Era one is ... hm ... well, I could just quote you, I guess ...

I posted this gif back in - July? - and you said:

"I am sickened by the degree of subtle sexiness that exists in such a quiet moment."

Subtle sexiness. Quiet moment. It's got the lot.

I understand. This is how I feel about basically everything from the MJ universe spanning from 1987-1990 lol.

Well that does capture it on some level. But today nothing about his sexiness feels subtle to me. Yet, I do think, objectively, someone tucking their hair and just existing has to be subtle sexiness by definition of it not being intentionally sexy. Right? This is how language works, or so I've heard.

I don't even know what I'm saying.

Let's look at these photos that I haven't responded to in awhile...

A WORK OF F***ING ART!!!

Michael wearing his aviator Ray Bans.

Yes, he looks sexy AF in the Ray Bans, but can we talk about his bottom lip because.... nvm, I can't even go there

How am I supposed to survive that curl on his forehead? Someone, please tell me. HOW?!

Music Magazine Japan Celebrates ‘Thriller’ - Thriller 40

Music Magazine in Japan will honor Michael's "Thriller" album in their November issue. They'll study all nine songs, the music video and other works from Michael.

www.thriller40.com

Presumably it will be in Japanese but it's dead exciting, imo.

So I posted this one over here and then wondered if it was actually Thriller era. Decided it wasn't. Moved it. Now have decided, yes, it definitely is Thriller era. Posting it again.

Is this what happens when you spend 4 hours looking at Tik Tok vids? Don't answer!!

P.S. If it turns out it isn't Thriller era I'm not flaming well moving it again! It can stay here as a testament to my madness. Those Tik Tok videos? They were all MJ related.
