Antoine Fuqua's Michael has brought pop legend Michael Jackson back into the spotlight, as the biopic takes viewers through the superstar's tumultuous, inspirational, and wild life.

<head><link rel="icon" href="data:,"></head><p style="margin-top: 0px;" > No matter what generation you were born in, you might have heard, if not witnessed, Jackson&apos;s greatness. His music transcended boundaries, and his iconic dance steps have inspired many great artists after him. This International Dance Day, here are five iconic dance moves by Michael Jackson that carved the singer&apos;s enduring legacy.<br><br></p><p><b><font><strong>Anti-Gravity Lean</strong></font></b></p><p><iframe class="dh-generic-iframe" allowfullscreen data-src="https://giphy.com/embed/lGkUyj3IrEcvu" data-width="480" data-height="269" ></iframe></p><p>via GIPHY</p><p>No one can truly recall the exact feeling audience members experienced when they first witnessed Michael Jackson perform the anti-gravity lean during Smooth Criminal on his Dangerous World Tour in the early &apos;90s. The move looked so surreal that many believed he was actually defying gravity. In reality, it was performed using specially designed shoes that allowed him to lean forward at a 45-degree angle, changing live performance forever. </p><nh-chunk-delimit /><script>var iframes = document.getElementsByClassName("dh-generic-iframe"); if (iframes) {     for (iframe of iframes) { if (!iframe.src) {     var dataSet = iframe.dataset;     iframe.src = dataSet.src;     iframe.style.border = "none";     var width = dataSet.width;     var height = dataSet.height;     if(width.includes("%")) {     iframe.width = width;     iframe.height = height;         } else{     iframe.height = document.body.offsetWidth * (height / width);     iframe.width = document.body.offsetWidth;  } }     } }  function pause() {     var iframesList = document.getElementsByTagName("iframe");     for (iframe of iframesList) { var iframeSrc = iframe.src; iframe.src = ""; iframe.src = iframeSrc;     } }</script>

While many versions exist today, it was Jackson who popularised it globally. He first performed the move during Billie Jean on the TV special Motown 25: Yesterday, Today, Forever, taped on March 25, 1983.<br><br></p><p><b><font><strong>The Robot</strong></font></b></p><p><div id="1F_qZvbGEQI"><div id="div_1F_qZvbGEQI"></div><script>if(ytOnLoadFn.indexOf("yt1F_qZvbGEQI") == -1){ var p; function yt1F_qZvbGEQI(){p = new YT.Player("div_1F_qZvbGEQI", {height: document.getElementById("div_1F_qZvbGEQI").offsetWidth * (9/16),width: document.getElementById("div_1F_qZvbGEQI").offsetWidth,videoId: "1F_qZvbGEQI",events: {'onReady': onPlayerReady}, playerVars:{'playsinline': 1,'modestbranding':1,'0':0,'autoplay':1,'loop':1}});onYTEmbedLoad(p)}ytOnLoadFn.push("yt1F_qZvbGEQI");function onPlayerReady(event) {if(typeof NHCommand != 'undefined' && NHCommand.isAutoPlayAllowed && NHCommand.isAutoPlayAllowed() && !window.ytVideoAutoPlayed){ event.target.playVideo(); window.ytVideoAutoPlayed = true; }}}</script></div><script>if(NHCommand && NHCommand.getMainVideoId){document.getElementById(NHCommand.getMainVideoId()).style.display="none";}</script></p>Credit: Giphy <br><br>Michael Jackson debuted his signature Robot dance in 1974 while performing with his brothers, The Jackson 5, on Soul Train and The Carol Burnett Show.<nh-chunk-delimit /><script>var iframes = document.getElementsByClassName("dh-generic-iframe"); if (iframes) {     for (iframe of iframes) { if (!iframe.src) {     var dataSet = iframe.dataset;     iframe.src = dataSet.src;     iframe.style.border = "none";     var width = dataSet.width;     var height = dataSet.height;     if(width.includes("%")) {     iframe.width = width;     iframe.height = height;         } else{     iframe.height = document.body.offsetWidth * (height / width);     iframe.width = document.body.offsetWidth;  } }     } }  function pause() {     var iframesList = document.getElementsByTagName("iframe");     for (iframe of iframesList) { var iframeSrc = iframe.src; iframe.src = ""; iframe.src = iframeSrc;     } }</script>

<head><link rel="icon" href="data:,"></head><nh-chunk-delimit /> It was during the dance break of Dancing Machine that he delivered the sharp, eye-catching choreography that instantly captivated audiences. <p><b><font><strong>The Toe Stand</strong></font></b></p><p><iframe class="dh-generic-iframe" allowfullscreen data-src="https://giphy.com/embed/ibE2G1af8aMZG" data-width="480" data-height="466" ></iframe></p><p>via GIPHY</p><p>Credit: Giphy <br><br>Another staple of Michael Jackson&apos;s choreography that seemed to defy the laws of physics was the Toe Stand. Before being associated with the King of Pop, the move was popularised by Elvis Presley during his performance of Hound Dog. Interestingly, the Toe Stand was inspired by performers Jackson admired and was likely influenced by Black artists who helped shape early performance styles.</p><p>
