about mjfangirl- the brand
I am a Michael Jackson legacy preservationist and content creator, dedicated to keeping his story, artistry, and cultural impact alive for new generations.
For more than 30 years, I have immersed myself in Michael Jackson’s music, performances, history, and global influence. What began as fandom grew into a lifelong commitment to understanding, documenting, and sharing his legacy in ways that are thoughtful, informed, and meaningful. Through my long-form content, I help fans move beyond headlines and rediscover Michael Jackson as an artist, innovator, and human being.
I don’t approach Michael Jackson’s legacy from an academic standpoint, I approach it as someone who has lived with and enjoyed his work for decades, witnessed how narratives can change, and understands how easily history can be distorted or forgotten.
My work focuses on:
Preserving stories, memories, and context that get lost over time
Creating space for honest, respectful conversations
Sharing knowledge built from decades of listening, watching, learning, and engaging
Helping fans, especially newer ones, understand why Michael Jackson still matters
I believe legacy is not just something you study and move past… it’s something you pass on & share.
about iesha- my story
Outside of MJfangirl, I’m a wife, a mom, and a digital marketing professional — usually balancing real life with a little bit of fun. You can catch me doing Disneyland trips with my family, blasting music, reading celebrity memoirs like it’s research 😅, and hopping on my Peloton when I need a reset.
Fun fact: I became a Michael Jackson fan at age 3 — thanks to my dad, who has seen Michael Jackson / The Jacksons in concert five times!
Michael Jackson is one of the most influential artists in history, yet his legacy is often minimized, misunderstood, or filtered through misinformation.
Preserving his legacy means remembering the full story, passing down cultural knowledge responsibly, and encouraging curiosity instead of judgment. It also means learning from the people who knew him best, including past collaborators, friends, and family, and keeping the conversation alive instead of frozen in time.
This work is important to me because I am super passionate about making sure future generations can engage with Michael Jackson’s legacy with awareness, respect, and joy. If you’re here to learn, reflect, or reconnect with his legacy, you’re in the right place.
Take a look around at my resources, workbooks, and guided content. Everything I create is designed to help you explore Michael’s legacy with more understanding, more joy, and way less noise.
Why preservation matters.
