Jackson, widely regarded as the King of Pop by his die-hard fans, was one of the most significant figures of the 20th century. Known for his unorthodox lifestyle and changing appearances, he had become a global superstar by the Eighties. In 2009, while preparing for his comeback “This is It” tour, the 50-year-old was found dead from an overdose of the drugs propofol and benzodiazepine administered by his personal physician – Dr Conrad Murray.
