Some interesting, if not downright bizarre, musical comparisons have taken place between Michael Jackson and Amadeus Mozart. Yet, there have been a flurry of other celebrity comparison weirdness, from comparing Slayer to J.S. Bach and the guitarist Great Kat claiming to be Beethoven . Michael Jackson and Mozart Yes , the King of Pop and the Prince of Classical music had quite a few interesting similarities. Both were child prodigies prodded on by less-than-caring family members. Both seemed to succumb to the infamous child star syndrome , having reached fame and fortune before they were old enough to wear braces. (Okay, Mozart wouldn't have worn braces, but you get the point). Mozart and Jackson seemed to have difficulty adapting to adult life, the one becoming a social embarrassment and the other creating his own kingdom, ...
