Michael Jackson‘s final photoshoots are to be the subject of a riveting new documentary
.
Director Craig Williams’ Michael: The Last Photo Shoots chronicles the tragic singer’s 2007 sessions with L’Uomo Vogue and Ebony magazines - and the lengths assistants, stylists and photographers had to go to to make the projects happen.
A spokesperson for the documentary tells Wenn, “It is a unique story told through the eyes of several of Michael’s closest friends, photographers and stylists that had helped Michael prepare for his planned comeback in 2007.
“After several years of living overseas in seclusion, Michael returned to the United States wanting to make a comeback onto the music scene. Taking the cover of L’UOMO Vogue for its October, 2007 issue was Michael’s first step… and on September 24, 2007 in Brooklyn, New York, Michael Jackson did an interview and another photoshoot for Ebony Magazine - for its December 2007 issue. This was Michael’s first United States interview and magazine story in a decade.”
The film features never-before-seen footage of the King of Pop and interviews with Rushka Bergman, the contributing fashion editor of L’Uomo Vogue, Vogue Italia and Jackson’s personal stylist, photographer Bruce Weber and make-up artist Kabuki.

(Note: MJ-Upbeat doesn’t know yet if this will be a positive Documentary, but we hope so.. time will tell)
Any idea as to when this might become reality? And I agree - hopefully it will be positive!
All I know is read from this article so I’m not aware of the date & time… not yet anyway,,, but I’ll be keeping my eyes open for it. I hope it’s a positve docu…..
Information is skimpy but I - along w/ all MJ fans - would love to see any new documentary that isn’t pejorative and castrating. Thank God, we’re finally getting some positive and fair docs about our angel.
I’m looking forward to it.
