Michael Jackson idolized Charlie Chaplin but did he steal his infamous moonwalk and many other dance moves from Chaplin? Both Jackson the King of Pop and Chaplin the King of Silent Movies are iconic entertainers who captivated the world with their dance and overall genius. Flashback and watch this short dance battle between Michael Jackson Billie Jean at the 1995 MTV Awards including Michael Jackson moonwalk vs the dancing and moonwalk of Charlie Chaplin Modern Times from 1939. This is his most iconic moonwalks throughout the years. Without a doubt we know Chaplin was one of many Michael Jackson influences for his King of Pop Moonwalk, along with James Brown, Bill Bailey, Fred Astaire and others.

Let’s get real – when artists borrow from each other, is it a nod of respect, or do you think it’s more like stealing? Let us know in the comments. Thanks for watching! 💞
