Jackson. Michael Firestone learned
to imitate every move and vocal vibration of the icon. He performed Jackson's
songs in shows throughout his adolescence. Once Michael
Firestone became an adult, he moved to Las Vegas and began a career
impersonating the 'King of Pop.'

City. Michael Firestone also did guest appearances on 'Larry the Cable Guy's Christmas
Spectacular' and the Asian variety show 'The Bon Show.'
