*cough* Captain Jack Sparrow *cough* Only joking. :P
A lot of people who like Michael Jackson like Johnny Depp as well. I liked Johnny when I first saw Pirates of the Caribbean, and then I liked Michael after learning more about him from Wikipedia. Love 'em both.
Michael dressed up as Willy Wonka for a photoshoot for Ebony, if I remember the name of the magazine correctly. Johnny Depp played Willy Wonka, and many claimed Johnny's portrayal of the candy wonder man was close to Michael Jackson.
Similarities: Pale skin, big sunglasses, iconic hat, "eccentricities," a strained relationship with his father but they still love each other, misunderstood by some, rich and famous, bad people taking advantage of him, hiding away from the world after being hurt, personal wonderlands, visionary, never lost his magical talent.

Michael Jackson and Johnny Depp both worked with Vincent Price. Thriller and Edward Scissorhands, respectively. Some even say Michael Jackson may have been considered for the role of Scissorhands, but that could be just a rumor.
"See you in July." I hope so. :)
