Confetti falls everywhere as young dancers surround superstar Michael Jackson at New York's Natural History Museum, Tuesday, Feb. 8, 1984. Jackson was honored for his successful "Thriller" album by CBS Records chief Walter Yetnikoff. The museum's collection of stuffed elephants and other animals was the setting for the party. "Jackson specifically asked that it be held here because he was interested in animals and natural history," said a spokesman for the museum. (AP Photo/Ron Frehm)
