Michael Jackson would have been celebrating his 53rd birthday today; sadly, Michael passed away June 25, 2009 after an overdose on prescription drugs which caused him to go into cardiac arrest. Michael’s legacy lives on through his influence, music and generosity!

There will be a cake-cutting ceremony later today “at 5 p.m in front of the modest house at 2300 Jackson Street marking Jackson’s actual birthday.”
