Pete Carter, 29, is known for his Michael Jackson impersonations. He's got the look, the costumes and the iconic moves that are so convincing. Terry Richardson shot this photography series and it must have felt great to get a taste of what it would be like to have a photo shoot with the pop king.
Carter has been impersonating the king of pop since he was a child and this series features him channeling Michael Jackson, dressed in fine leather jackets and a curly black wig. The close-ups reveal makeup contouring, contacts and eyeliner as the model aimed to virtually modify his facial structure. They're a little bit scary up front, but from afar Pete Carter really does resemble Michael Jackson.
