most anticipated albums in memory it's
28
00:01:13,619 --> 00:01:17,280
also already among the most
29
00:01:15,360 --> 00:01:19,560
controversial it was incredulous that
30
00:01:17,280 --> 00:01:21,930
Michael Jackson would select words like
31
00:01:19,560 --> 00:01:23,700
that Rabbi Marvin higher was referring
32
00:01:21,930 --> 00:01:31,680
to the song they don't care about us
33
00:01:23,700 --> 00:01:33,390
that includes these lyrics reacting to
34
00:01:31,680 --> 00:01:35,520
criticism Jackson sent the rabbi a
35
00:01:33,390 --> 00:01:36,870
letter of apology and said albums not
36
00:01:35,520 --> 00:01:38,880
yet shipped would include a disclaimer
37
00:01:36,870 --> 00:01:40,210
that the singer had not meant to offend
38
00:01:38,880 --> 00:01:43,020
anyone

[Music]
40
00:01:43,020 --> 00:01:48,670
the album's first music video scream is
41
00:01:46,300 --> 00:01:50,680
also controversial or its use of obscene
42
00:01:48,670 --> 00:01:55,060
words and Janet Jackson sexually
43
00:01:50,680 --> 00:01:56,800
suggestive choreography Jackson himself
44
00:01:55,060 --> 00:01:58,540
is no stranger to controversial
45
00:01:56,800 --> 00:02:00,580
gyrations but for years they were
46
00:01:58,540 --> 00:02:03,130
overshadowed by his phenomenal record
47
00:02:00,580 --> 00:02:05,620
sales 1982's Thriller is still the
48
00:02:03,130 --> 00:02:08,259
best-selling album of all time 46
49
00:02:05,620 --> 00:02:10,090
million copies sold but Jackson was
50
00:02:08,259 --> 00:02:11,620
beginning to change his appearance and
51
00:02:10,090 --> 00:02:15,400
it was getting as much attention as his
52
00:02:11,620 --> 00:02:17,080
songs then in August of 1993 allegations
53
00:02:15,400 --> 00:02:19,630
surfaced that the singer had sexually
54
00:02:17,080 --> 00:02:22,360
molested a 13 year old boy these
55
00:02:19,630 --> 00:02:24,070
statements about me are totally false no
56
00:02:22,360 --> 00:02:25,720
charges were ever filed and the matter
57
00:02:24,070 --> 00:02:27,910
was settled out of court but not before
58
00:02:25,720 --> 00:02:29,980
Jackson had cancelled his world tour and
59
00:02:27,910 --> 00:02:32,080
entered a rehab program because of an
60
00:02:29,980 --> 00:02:33,940
addiction to painkillers corporate
61
00:02:32,080 --> 00:02:35,980
sponsor Pepsi quietly ended its
62
00:02:33,940 --> 00:02:38,400
multimillion-dollar endorsement contract
63
00:02:35,980 --> 00:02:40,870
and Jackson seemed to go into seclusion
64
00:02:38,400 --> 00:02:42,790
with his marriage to Lisa Marie Presley
65
00:02:40,870 --> 00:02:44,980
Jackson moved back into the public eye
66
00:02:42,790 --> 00:02:46,600
but will his new album move him back to
67
00:02:44,980 --> 00:02:47,950
the top of the charts as far as
68
00:02:46,600 --> 00:02:50,320
marketing is concerned it would be
69
00:02:47,950 --> 00:02:52,300
difficult to think of anything that that
70
00:02:50,320 --> 00:02:53,950
has not been thought of with this
71
00:02:52,300 --> 00:02:56,680
campaign they've really pulled out all
72
00:02:53,950 --> 00:02:58,450

publicizing the album portrayed Jackson
82
00:03:17,799 --> 00:03:22,050
as bigger than life some audiences booed
83
00:03:20,320 --> 00:03:24,490
or laughed
