Say what you will about Lady Gaga and the controversy over her Alejandro video, she has single-handedly brought back the event video. We wait. We watch. We talk. We love. We hate. It’s entertainment at it’s best. This video has so many nods to so many greats… ABBA, Cabaret, Bob Fosse, Liza Minnelli, Madonna’s Like a Prayer, Janet’s Rhythm Nation, but all with Lady Gaga’s own unique sense of, “I am what I wear,” and her commitment to fashion and lifestyle as art. Steven Klein’s direction is nothing if not gorgeous and compelling. Gaga has said of the video in various interviews,” It’s a celebration and an admiration of gay love—it confesses my envy of the courage and bravery they require to be together. In the video I’m pining for the love of my gay friends—but they just don’t want me to be with them.” And whether you think that swallowing an enormous set of rosary beads is an intake of the holy, as Klein does, or serious blasphemy as the Catholic League does, there is no denying it’s all very intriguing.

Originally disliked by Quincy Jones, the track was almost removed from the album after Q and MJ had disagreements regarding its viability. Quincy thought people would just not get it. Michael thought is was an undeniable dance track. There are contradictory claims to what the song’s lyrics refer to. One suggests that they are derived from a real-life experience, in which a mentally ill female fan claimed that Jackson had fathered one of her twins. Jackson himself, however, stated that “Billie Jean” was based on groupies he had encountered. The song was mixed 91 times before finalized. Jackson’s entire lead vocal was performed in one take. Released on January 2, 1983 it quickly became one of the biggest songs of 1983. Walter Yetnikoff, the president of Jackson’s record label, CBS, approached MTV to play the “Billie Jean” video. He became enraged when MTV refused to play the video, and threatened to go public with MTV’s stance on black musicians. “I said to MTV, ‘I’m pulling everything we have off the air, all our product. I’m not going to give you any more videos. And I’m going to go public and bleeping tell them about the fact you don’t want to play music by a black guy.’” MTV relented and played the “Billie Jean” video in heavy rotation. After the video was aired, Thriller went on to sell an additional 10 million copies.This is Michael Jackson week on Tomorrowpictures.TV!
