説明 | Michael Jackson talking with fans on the grounds of the Kahala Hilton Hotel (today called Kahala Resort) in Honolulu, Hawaii. The small boy dressed in a red shirt to match Michael is James ("Jimmy") Safechuck, a boy who appeared in a Pepsi commercial with Michael and was traveling with him. They were inseparable around the hotel together, chasing each other, playing tag, making soap bubbles on a balcony of the hotel, walking closely on the beach together and looking at the hotel's dolphins, turtles and penguins together. Michael, though 29 1/2 years old at the time, acted more like someone Jimmy's age. Jimmy is about 10 years old at this time.The woman in white with a white purse seen in this photo was walking around with Michael and Jimmy when this photo was taken. Speculation from some is that she is Jimmy's mother but that is not confirmed. We don't know for sure who she is. I was staying at the Kalaha Hilton Hotel, and so was Michael (and Jimmy). I saw them 7 different times around the hotel over 3 days - during the day walking together on the beach, standing together in the lobby, together on a room's balcony, looking at the dolphin area together, and looking at the turtles and penguins kept on display around the swimming pool. When this photo was taken Michael and Jimmy were out in the daytime around the pool with an unidentified woman in white and these fans spotted them. I took this photo and others from a nearby high location. Michael was in Hawaii to make an appearance at a Pepsi bottlers convention that was taking place at another hotel 15 minutes away, the Sheraton-Waikiki Hotel, a 30-story hotel located in the heart of crowded and touristy Waikiki Beach. This photo was taken at night around the pool area in early February 1988. This was four years after Michael's scalp was burned during the filming of a Pepsi commercial, two years after he was diagnosed with vitiligo, a skin condition, and one month before he finalized the purchase of the land that would become Neverland.Note: Permission granted for anyone to publish or post this photo anywhere.
