His popularity went off the charts when he debuted this move live during "Motown 25: Yesterday, Today, Forever" television special. He sang with the Jackson 5 and then sang "Billie Jean" and performed the moonwalk. This would become his signature move. It represents MJ as a great illusionist and dancer.

MJ actually learned this move 3 years earlier from former Soul Train dancer and Shalamar member, Jeffrey Daniel.
