It’s impossible to do a legend proper justice. True icons make everything look easy because they have such an abundance of raw talent. I’m not a dancer or a singer, just a graphic designer. I can at the very least interpret the style of those I admire and give it my own spin. All good things must come to an end and it’s never easy to say goodbye. But, it is possible for a legacy to live on forever.

    This is absolutely beautiful. I am a graphic designer and artist (though I do not claim to be as talented as you), as well as an MJ fan, and I feel compelled to say how much I adore these photos. You are a gorgeous girl with such passion and insight, and your photographer obviously knows how to capture the raw essence of your artistic, loving, and absolutely amazing tribute to the modern world’s greatest icon. This is my favorite Nubby blog entry of all time– and I am an avid fan.

    Thank you so much, everyone!!! Bianca and I were both so tired and shot these at midnight in her living room that was basically taken over by the black backdrop and lights. I’m so happy with the outcome and glad that you like it a well!

    Raven: Great question! In reality, I was leaning forward onto a stool and propping myself up. Sad but true! I have no idea how MJ did it in real life!

    Hey there! Wow, you are an amazing girl! Great photos with the ‘MJ tribute theme’. Your tribute goes right down to the tiny details of that sequined jacket and your raised shoes!

    Happy Sunday!

    Nubby those are brilliant!!! It seems, at least in my area, that everyone hates MJ because he is “a creepy child molestor” or they say they like him just because he died. It is so nice to see another true fan who appriciates him.

    Wonderful. Thanks for the inspiration–I just decided to go as MJ for Halloween and your post really brought the prospect to life for me (though, granted, I’ll be mostly in head-to-toe silver). Thank you.

    These are just amazing. You look gorgeous in all of them. Good work on this tribute! I love it!
    I’ve been planning my Michael costume for Halloween, I know it’s tacky but I can’t find another excuse to don the duds.
    Good job girl!
