Just Released Video: Michael Jackson's Hair Catches Fire During 1984 Pepsi Commercial Shoot Us Weekly

Entertainment and celebrity news magazine Us Weekly has released footage of a Michael Jackson commercial shoot for Pepsi gone wrong.

In the clip from 1984, during the sixth take of the commercial--which was filmed before a live audience filled with 3,000 Jackson fans, the singer's hair catches fire after a pyrotechnics element goes off too early.

Jackson continues dancing as he decends onto the stage. Crew members rush to Jackson to extinguish the flames.

The King of Pop suffered second- and third-degree burns on his scalp and face. The magazine also claims that in order to deal with the pain of the accident Jackson began taking medications--leading to the star's alleged addiction to painkillers and plastic surgery.

I'll gear this review to 2 types of people: current Zune owners who are considering an upgrade, and people trying to decide between a Zune and an iPod. (There are other players worth considering out there, like the Sony Walkman X, but I hope this gives you enough info to make an informed decision of the Zune vs players other than the iPod line as well.)
