Michael Jackson's Iconic Gloves Sell For Over £ 85k

JAKARTA - Even though he has passed away for a long time, Michael Jackson's belongings are still in vogue. According to an NME report, Monday, April 6, the gloves Michael Jackson often wears sold for more than £ 85,000 in an auction.

The white gloves with gray sequins are part of the June 29 singer costume during the Bad album tour.

The buyer, who does not want to be named, received the Michael Jackson gloves at an auction in Texas. Upon receiving the gloves, the buyer also received a letter from MJJ Production Company confirming the item was originally donated to UNICEF in 1998.

Gloves are the hallmark of Michael Jackson in every appearance. Uniquely, he only wore this object in his right hand. Quoted from CSMonitor, the idea of wearing gloves originated when Michael Jackson saw the film editor Rick Ross who only wore the left glove.

Michael Jackson debuted in the right glove at the television debut of Billie Jean's song to celebrate Motown's 25 years Anniversary in 1983.

“I think wearing one glove looks cool. Wearing both looks normal, "said Jackson at the time, as reported by NME.

Another recent news from Michael Jackson is the cultivation of a Broadway stage based on the true life story of The King of Pop. Currently, casting in Detroit has started. However, regarding the schedule for the first stage there has been no further confirmation.
