BIOGRAPHYI remember being seven years old and asking my mum with a straight face, “Mummy, can we fly to Africa and help all the poor people and the hungry children?” I was absolutely serious. Let this be just a small example of how much one man has inspired me ever since I can remember. That man is of course, Michael Jackson. I have always been a huge Michael Jackson fan. To me, Michael is as inspirational off stage as he is onstage with all his humanitarian efforts and charitable work, to help those less fortunate. To use his amazing creative talent’s to speak up as a voice for the voiceless. Michael has helped mould me into the person that I am today. I first saw Michael Live on the Dangerous Tour in Wembley, London ’92. I have had the honour of meeting Michael many, many times since I was 14. I have performed for Michael in both London and New York and have received personal recognition by both name and face. He has given me his personal compliment’s and I have shared many countless moment’s of magic in his breathtaking presence. For me, to translate the emotion of Michael’s magic from the music through the physical embodiment of recreating, in tribute, Michael’s live performance and setting his “poetry to motion” on stage is such a joy and an incredible passion. Soon to be included in this website, there will be new music, links to “SPOTLIGHT”(where actor’s such as Pierce Brosnan, Jude Law and Ewan McGregor have been featured) featuring information on my acting, the official launch of the “MJDO” jacket’s, which Michael himself has worn and taken a liking to, and much more. Every form of art, be it a picture or a painting, a song or a dance, a film or a book, a poem or a gesture, these are the most powerful and universal form’s of expression leaving no boundary of colour, language, religion or race so the whole world can understand, relate and feel together. This is all so important for a world that hunger’s to be unified. To all those incredible movie maker’s, actor’s and storyteller’s, to the music of the world, for all the escapism, inspiration and education that you provide us, for all the lives you have changed and the light we see shine, I hope to one day contribute in your field, I thank you… Many thanks to some very special people, Nima: for the construction of this site, for every breath of your creative energy, I thank you, Soren: for your enthusiasm and support, both your friendship’s mean so much to me, to Pam and Richard for your pictorial contribution to this site, your kindness is greatly appreciated, to Pete: for your loyalty, your laugh’s and your high spirited energy, to my wonderful supportive parents, and of course to the King himself Michael Jackson, I love you, thank you so much for your constant love, magic and inspiration. Your art, your magic is immortal. You bring people of every race, religion, colour, creed and nationality, from all over the world, together. You give us all so much light and happiness. You have brought many special people into my life; I am who I am today because of you, you have my loyalty, love, respect and support, always and forever…
