EXCLUSIVE ON JVISION ENTERTAINMENT TV The Accident that Sparked Jackson's Addiction.
What people don't know about Michael Jackson's plastic surgery journey. Michael Jackson was at the height of his fame in the 1980s as he released some of his biggest and best-selling albums - including Thriller, and Bad. However, tragedy struck in 1984 during a $5 million deal with Pepsi to work on a promotional campaign. Jackson’s hair and face caught fire, leaving him with second and third degree burns. At first Jackson – wearing a sequined shirt, jacket and signature glove – continues to dance unaware as flames and smoke emanate from his hair. As the fireball grows around his head, he is set upon by members of the crew who tamp out the flames. The star was rushed to hospital, and received a massive compensation payout from the soft drink company.
Despite his horrifying experience Jackson did something incredible with his compensation money. The singer was offered $1.5 million compensation by Pepsi over the incident, but donated the money to the Brotman Medical Centre where he was treated. The accident kicked off Jackson's obsession with plastic surgery.
