Who gave Michael the title “King of Pop”?
The answer to this question cannot be given precisely as to who and when this title was bestowed upon him. Michael Jackson became the King of Pop after the album Thriller. However, for the first time, Elizabeth Taylor said in one of her speeches: “I think he (Michael Jackson) is one of the best human beings who has lived on this earth. And in my opinion, he is the true king of pop, rock and soul. I love you, Michael.” And since then Michael has been referred to as the King of Pop.
It is worth mentioning that in 1989, at the BRE Awards ceremony, Michael won the Triple Crown Award - King of Pop, Rock & Soul
