The Moonwalk was a factor in what set Michael apart and clearly in a league of his own in the realm of superstardom.
Michael did not invent the move, but perfected it and made it his own.
First shown to the world at the Motown 25th Annviverary in a performance of "Billie Jean". Although to the viewing world the performance fantastic, Michael himself was not happy with it, being the perfectionist he is. Nevertheless the performance at Motown 25, especially the performance of "Billie Jean" which featured the Moonwalk, will always be remembered as a magic moment in the history of music entertainment.
This image is just a glimpse of Michael performing the Moonwalk for the first time at the Mowtown 25th Anniversary. He literally stole the show. It was after this performance that Fred Astaie rang him and other great dancers saying how much they admired his talent.
