Michael Jackson awards and nominations

Michael Jackson (1958–2009) was an American singer. He debuted on the professional music scene at the age of 5, as a member of The Jackson 5, and began a solo career in 1971 while still a member of the group in subsequent years. Referred to as the "King of Pop",[1] Michael Jackson is considered to be the greatest entertainer of all time and one of the most influential figures of the 20th century.[2][3][4]

Jackson's career was rewarded with 13 Grammy Awards, as well as the Grammy Legend Award and Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award; 6 Brit Awards, 40 Billboard Music Awards (before and after 1990) [5] and 26 American Music Awards. He currently holds 28 Guinness World Records out of a total of 36 records set in his lifetime,[6][7] The organization also recognized Jackson as the world's most successful entertainer in 2006.[8][9] He's a member of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, becoming one of only a few artists to be inducted twice (he was inducted in 1997 as a member of The Jackson 5 and again as a solo artist in 2001). Jackson was also inducted into the National Museum of Dance and Hall of Fame, making him the first and currently, only recording artist to be inducted.[10] He was also inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame.[11] Jackson was also inducted in 2014 into the Rhythm & Blues Hall of Fame along with his father Joe Jackson.[12]

In 1984, Jackson was approached to donate "Beat It" as backing music for a commercial on drunk driving.[13] Jackson agreed and it was arranged for the singer to be awarded with an honor from the President of the United States, Ronald Reagan.[13] In April 1990, Jackson returned to the White House to be recognized as "Artist of the Decade" by President George H. W. Bush.[14] Two years later, on May 1, 1992, President Bush presented Jackson with an award acknowledging him as "a point of light ambassador".[14][15] Jackson received the award in recognition for his efforts in inviting disadvantaged children to his Neverland Ranch.[15] Jackson was the only entertainer to receive the award.[15] He has two Primetime Emmy Award nominations in 1983 and 1990.[16] In 2000, Jackson was honored as the Artist of the Millennium at the world music awards and credited as the best selling solo artist of all time.[17]

Jackson currently holds 28 Guinness World Records out of a total of 36 records set in his lifetime,[6][7] including best-selling album of all time and most expensive music video.

  1. ^ Listicles and charts are not included, unless they are explicitly described as "awards" or specific trophies are given.
  2. ^ Prior to the inauguration of the Billboard Music Awards in 1990, the magazine had the "Number One Awards" to honor the top-performing artists of the year on each of chart categories.
  3. ^ Shared with Michael Peters.
  4. ^ Credited to Jackson, Gregg Burge and Jeffrey Daniel.

  7. ^ Since this award came after Jackson's death, the award did not go directly to him so it won't count to his awards tally.
  8. ^ In 1986, Jackson netted a deal with Pepsi worth between $12-15 million. It was once held as the most successful payout for a commercial spokesperson until the mid-to-late 1990s and early 2000s when superstars such as Britney Spears, Beyoncé and 50 Cent began to make upwards of $50 million off commercial endorsements. Jackson's record is broken.
  9. ^ Jackson's all-time Wembley record of 504,000 in 1988 was outdone in 2011 by the singing group Take That, who performed at Wembley Stadium for eight consecutive nights performing in front of a record 623,737 people, plus during Jackson's tour, he performed five consecutive nights on July 14, 15, 16, 22, and 23, then after stops in Wales, Ireland, Spain, France and Germany, he returned to Wembley for the last two nights on August 26 and 27, 1988.
  10. ^ Jackson possibly held this record until Justin Timberlake's FutureSex/LoveShow in 2006 when the tour grossed over $126.8 million worldwide, topping the $125 million set by Jackson in 1989. Since then, other male solo artists such as Roger Waters, Justin Bieber, Billy Joel, Paul McCartney and Bruno Mars have had tours that have grossed more money than Jackson did. The record has since been claimed by Ed Sheeran, who leads among all solo artists and artists in general with his ÷ Tour in 2019.
  11. ^ Though he was listed in Guinness' book as the youngest chart-topper in 1999, in recent years, this was corrected to Stevie Wonder, who as a solo artist, first topped the charts with "Fingertips" in 1963 when he was just 13. Jackson's first solo chart-topper, "Ben", hit number one in October 1972, two months after he turned 14.
  12. ^ This record is likely now broken by Mariah Carey, who like Jackson, also records R&B music, as well as pop. Her recent number one was "All I Want for Christmas is You", which topped the Billboard Hot 100, on December 21, 2019. Jackson's span lasted 22 years and 19 days between "Ben" on October 14, 1972 and "You Are Not Alone" on September 2, 1995. Mariah's span is longer at 29 years and 139 days.[104]
  13. ^ The record now belongs to Twenty One Pilots' "Level of Concern".
  14. ^ Although Guinness World Records mentioned 26 wins, according to the American Music Awards' database, he is only credited with 24.
  15. ^ Jackson lost his record to Eminem and R. Kelly.
  16. ^ Since the record was set in 2011, Jackson posthumously placed two more top 40 hits on the Billboard Hot 100 including "Love Never Felt So Good" in 2014 and "Don't Matter to Me" with Drake in 2018.
  17. ^ It's been reported that the estimated audience was 500 million worldwide in 27 countries though the number is just an estimate.
