“Michael Jackson was at Madame Tussaud’s in London to unveil his waxwork. He was only 28 years old. Due to his popularity two photo-shoots had been organized with 60 photographers set up on terraces for each session. I was in the second session, and it was a mobbed. Surrounded by heavy security, Michael posed with his waxwork, smiling professionally at the phalanx of flashguns. He kept his sunglasses on throughout the entire session, then just as he was leaving, he took them off and turned to look at the photographers once more. In that moment, he suddenly looked vulnerable and alone. This is that shot.”David Corio
