31. The Jacksons — "Victory Tour"
It's understandable that The Jackson 5 and The Jacksons are treated as footnotes in Michael Jackson's career. But let's not forget that MJ became a star as the focal point of these family-based groups long before he was dubbed the King of Pop. Jackson had hits, set touring records, and even played before royalty with his siblings. On the "Victory Tour," his last stint as a Jackson, he actually performed his solo albums Off the Wall and Thriller with the group and stunned the world with his moonwalk, single glove, and sequined jacket – trademarks he'd take with him into his solo career. While it's true he wasn't quite yet the King of Pop, catching him on the "Victory Tour" could definitely be considered seeing him a mere "shamone" or two away from his throne. — M. Melis
At 96 years old, Julia Jackson sits in a quiet living room, photographs stacked in albums around her, each face a memory, each frame a story. Among them lies one set of images and recollections she cherishes more than most: the times the Jackson family visited her home, turning celebrity into something soft, gracious, human.
Julia says she is a relative of the Jacksons, not a name you’ll find in the spotlight, but someone who held a place in the private weave of their family life. When her granddaughter Jece was rummaging through old albums at her grandmother’s house, she came across photos she didn’t expect. She posted them on TikTok, and suddenly this quiet life became a window into a rarely seen side of the Jackson legacy.
The most vivid memory Julia shares is of a Sunday lunch after a Jacksons performance on their Victory Tour.
