After Michael Jackson's untimely passing Thursday, the world is remembering the many ways that he influenced pop culture. Not only were his songs and videos iconic, but his fashion sense pushed the envelope and made sure everyone knew when the King of Pop walked into a room.
Check out the slideshow below for some favorite pop star fashions, from Michael Jackson himself to Beyonce and Justin Timberlake.
Implications - In a celebrity and pop culture-obsessed world, idolized icons who rose to fame in one particular domain are using this popularity to expand into many other industries.
