For those who don’t know Pez, he is the man behind not only MJVibe but also Editor-in-Chief of Iconic Magazine. He is also responsible for Sixteen11 which the home of ‘The Ultimate Collector Book Series’ and his own book “Off The Wall: from the Beginning, brick by brick”, King of Shop – the Michael Jackson Emporium, ‘Making HIStory Exhibition’ and of course the latest addition to his brainstorm: KINGVENTION, The European Michael Jackson Convention. Trust me when I say this will not stop there!
His love and devotion to Michael Jackson is unconditional! I have personally never met a fan so dedicated and passionate as Pez is! And I am sure for those who met him, spoke to him and even cross his path will agree with me on that point!
Pez always tells me that Michael Jackson’s legacy is his music, his dance, his videos (sorry “Short films”) and his Legacy doesn’t need us! But Pez really gives his life dedication to that Legacy and to us, the fans! “I want to create things that if Michael was still with us today, he would be proud of” Oh boy! You made it! Michael would have been so proud! And this is coming from those who worked with the King of Pop himself!
Pez hates to be the centre of attention (and for sure he is going to hate this) but we cannot ignore how much he gave to our community so far! Not only he interviewed over 80 people who worked with Michael Jackson and gave the fans the chance to know how the man’s creativity is working but he also gave us a platform to meet and regroup. Kingvention is one of those! The European Michael Jackson Convention ran 3 years in a row and gave the fans across Europe to come together and enjoy our idol in style!
Pez is turning 30 today! The big 3.0. cannot be ignored and it’s the perfect moment to wish him not only a fantastic Birthday but also to thank him for everything he does for us the fans! (and from a very close source I can reveal that Pez’s brain ain’t stopping there! So be prepared for more coming soon)
So from all of us at MJVibe, King of Shop, Sixteen11 and Kingvention, we wish you a beautiful 30th Birthday and here some special messages from special people in your life:
Dear Pez-an-ator, 30!?!?!?!?! The big 3-0. Thir-tay… Thirsty Thirty.

Hope you have a great birthday, and congrats on all your hard work this year – you deserve a drunken birthday bash! Love from your favourite print expert in the whole wide world –

What can I say Pez. I’ve seen you go through your 20s and you have grown and developed into an even more incredible man than the one I met outside of Michael’s hotel (you were pretty fabulous back then I should let you know lol)!
Seriously though, this next chapter of your life is going to be so incredible and I feel blessed as your best friend to watch you walk into your thirties doing so many great things. Having a career that you love that is taking you to fabulous places, a finance who loves the bones off of you, (who I happen to think is pretty damn perfect for you and one of my favourite people)! You’re a proud uncle too, something I know you really love. You’re a creative, dynamic and fun entrepreneur. A sound and brilliant mind with many great gifts to share and explore with others…
I personally wanna thank you for being my best friend. Your loyalty, respect, humour, support and kindness have meant more to me than I could possibly say. I love you to bits and I’m so happy to have shared a challenging but fabulous decade laughing, travelling, working, celebrating life and of course Michael with you!
Here’s a toast to you on this amazing day! Keep being you, you’re pretty amazing (you’re even modest enough to not even think of yourself in that way). Have a fabulous birthday Hun, let’s make 30 a fun and fabulous year!
