Michael Jackson has been a singing superstar since he was eleven years old, when he had four consecutive no. 1 hits with his brothers, performing as The Jackson Five. On his own throughout most of the 1970s, he had numerous hit singles, and after 1982's Thriller, an album that yielded seven top ten hits, Jackson was dubbed "The King of Pop." His next album, Bad topped the charts, and Jackson was one of the first stars of MTV. Then his eccentric lifestyle began to overwhelm his recording career, and Jackson became a favorite of the gossip sheets. In 1994 he married Lisa Marie Presley, the daughter of Elvis (a.k.a. "The King"), but they divorced in 1996. In spite of his music and millions of fans, Jackson's celebrity in the 1990s was due to series of cosmetic surgeries, rumors of exotic pets and pecadilloes at Jackson's estate (which he dubbed "Neverland").
