On June 25, 2009, the music world stopped spinning when news broke of the death of Michael Jackson. Dubbed the "King of Pop", he is regarded as one of the most significant cultural figures of the 20th century and one of the greatest entertainers in the history of music.

The All-New Mickey Mouse Club ran on the Disney Channel from 1989 to 1994 and featured a number of cast members who went on to become big stars, including Britney Spears, Christina Aguilera, and Justin Timberlake.

From that point forward, the moonwalk became Jackson's signature move.
