In Popular Culture
- In a 1995 episode of The Simpsons entitled Bart vs. Australia, a brief image of an animated Jackson as part of his Energizer ad campaign of the late 1980s appeared in a slideshow. The slideshow was a collection of images depicting Australian cultural icons which were gradually losing commercial appeal in the United States. The imagery was presented to the Simpson family before Bart was due to appear in an Australian court over fraud charges.

Famous quotes containing the words popular and/or culture:
“Just try to prove you’re not a camel!”
—Russian saying popular in the Soviet period, trans. by Vladimir Ivanovich Shlyakov (1993)
“One of the oddest features of western Christianized culture is its ready acceptance of the myth of the stable family and the happy marriage. We have been taught to accept the myth not as an heroic ideal, something good, brave, and nearly impossible to fulfil, but as the very fibre of normal life. Given most families and most marriages, the belief seems admirable but foolhardy.”
—Jonathan Raban (b. 1942)
