More ICONIC then all your faves : MJ's moonwalk turns 30 !
Thirty Years Ago: Michael Jackson First Moonwalked
On March 25, 1983, a 25-year-old Michael Jackson shocked the world during a widely-televised performance of his hit Billy Jean at the Motown 25th anniversary special by rising up onto his toes and gliding backwards, almost as if he were defying gravity.
The slide was brief, but it was stunning -- so much so that many audience members suspected special shoes or effects might be involved.
But there was no movie magic behind Michael's moves -- only pure and simple talent.
The 'moonwalk' went on to become one of the most iconic dance moves of all time after that performance, turning Michael Jackson into a household name and forever cementing his title as the King of pop..
The move still manages to solicit "oohs" and "aahs" from anyone who witnesses a flawless moonwalk now, three decades later -- just like it did when Jackson himself busted it out on television.
