You've heard the news, right? Or at least found out about it over twitter when it happened, that Michael Joseph Jackson, has passed away. Better known as Michael Jackson or "MJ", he was an entertainer and much more, he was and is a cultural icon known to millions around the world.
So it only makes sense that we scrounge up a lot of Michael Jackson-related videos that have something to do with Japan and its obvious that the Japanese love MJ too. So I hope you enjoy our selection of finds that do not include any videos that involve dangling infants over windows. Sorry, just had to say that but the last video does feature a teenaged guy acting like an infant.
