The
Wicked Witch of the West
is a
fictional character
and the most significant antagonist in
L. Frank Baum
's
children's book
The Wonderful Wizard of Oz
(1900). In Baum's subsequent
Oz books
, it is the
Nome King
who is the principal villain; the Wicked Witch of the West is rarely even referred to again after her death in the first book.
The witch's most popular depiction was in the classic
1939 Hollywood movie
based on Baum's book, where she was portrayed by actress
Margaret Hamilton
. Hamilton's characterization introduced green skin and this has been continued in later literary and dramatic representations, including
Gregory Maguire
's revisionist Oz novel
Wicked: The Life and Times of the Wicked Witch of the West
(1995) and its musical stage adaptation
Wicked
(2003), the 2013 film
Oz the Great and Powerful
, and the Spring 2014 story arc of the television series

[

[

(August 29, 1958 – June 25, 2009) was an American singer, songwriter, record producer, dancer, and actor. Called the
King of Pop
,
[
4
]
[
5
]
his contributions to music and dance, along with his publicized personal life, made him a global figure in popular culture for over four decades.
The eighth child of the
Jackson family
, he debuted on the professional music scene along with his elder brothers
Jackie
,
Tito
,
Jermaine
, and
Marlon
as a member of
the Jackson 5
in 1964, and began his solo career in 1971. In the early 1980s, Jackson became a dominant figure in
popular music
. The music videos for his songs, including those of "
Beat It
", "
Billie Jean
", and "
Thriller
", were credited with breaking down racial barriers and with transforming the medium into an art form and promotional tool. The popularity of these videos helped to bring the then-relatively-new television channel
MTV
to fame. With videos such as "
Black or White
" and "
Scream
", he continued to innovate the medium throughout the 1990s, as well as forging a reputation as a touring solo artist. Through stage and video performances, Jackson popularized a number of complicated dance techniques, such as the
robot
and the
moonwalk
, to which he gave the name. His distinctive sound and style has influenced numerous
hip hop
,
post-disco
,
contemporary R&B
,
pop
, and
rock
artists.
Jackson's 1982 album
Thriller
is the
best selling album of all time
. His other albums, including
Off the Wall
(1979),
Bad
(1987),
Dangerous
(1991), and
HIStory
(1995), also rank among the world's best selling albums. Jackson is one of the few artists to have been inducted into the
Rock and Roll Hall of Fame
twice. He was also inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame and the Dance Hall of Fame as the first and only dancer from pop and rock music. His other
achievements
include multiple
Guinness World Records
; 13
Grammy Awards
, as well as the
Grammy Legend Award
and the
Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award
; 26
American Music Awards
—more than any other artist—including the "Artist of the Century" and "Artist of the 1980s"; 13
number-one singles in the United States
during his solo career, more than any other male artist in the
Hot 100
era; and the estimated sale of over 400 million records worldwide.
[Note 1]
Jackson has won
hundreds of awards
, making him the most awarded recording artist in the history of popular music.
[

]
Jackson became the first artist in history to have a top ten single in the
Billboard
Hot 100
in five different decades when "
Love Never Felt So Good
" reached number nine on May 21, 2014.
[
7
]
Jackson traveled the world attending events honoring his humanitarianism, and, in 2000, the
Guinness World Records
recognized him for supporting 39 charities, more than any other entertainer.
[

]
Aspects of Jackson's personal life, including his changing
appearance
,
personal relationships
, and behavior, generated controversy. In the mid-1990s, he was
accused of child sexual abuse
, but the civil case was settled out of court for an undisclosed amount and no formal charges were brought.
[
9
]
In 2005, he was
tried and acquitted
of further child sexual abuse allegations and several other charges after the jury found him not guilty on all counts. While preparing for his comeback concert series titled
This Is It
, Jackson
died
of acute
propofol
and
benzodiazepine
intoxication on June 25, 2009, after suffering from cardiac arrest. The
Los Angeles County Coroner
ruled his death a homicide, and his personal physician
Conrad Murray was convicted
of
involuntary manslaughter
. Jackson's death triggered a global outpouring of grief and a live broadcast of his
public memorial service
was viewed around the world.
