Michael Jackson... The King of Pop, Captain EO, Scarecrow... is dead

Published at:  Jun 25, 2009 5:32:29 PM CDT

Hey folks, Harry here... Wow. If Farrah Fawcett wasn't enough, the Reaper decided to take the King of Pop... Michael Jackson. There's an entire generation that has grown up in the aftermath of scandal ridden Michael Jackson, but as a member of that "Pepsi Generation" that Michael captured with his amazing songs, dance moves and spectacles... I grieve.

I always wanted Michael to do "The Lost Tour" where he'd hire Rick Baker to recreate the classic Michael Jackson to perform classic and new songs that sounded as though they came from that era... all while looking like 1983 Michael Jackson.

For film - his contributions were pretty few. His big role was in the Disco reinvention of THE WIZARD OF OZ - THE WIZ - where he played a pretty awesome Scarecrow. Some of us remember seeing THRILLER by John Landis in theaters... and then of course there was CAPTAIN EO which ran for years and years at DISNEYLAND! He also found screen time in MEN IN BLACK 2 and MISS CAST AWAY.

Otherwise - we know him from his pretty amazing music and signature dance moves. I remember the days when he truly ruled the Earth - he was preparing a new World Tour and there had been work on a new album as well. In the coming days I'm sure we'll hear all about it.

The LA TIMES is reporting that Michael was pronounced dead at 3:15 Los Angeles time. Let's send our best wishes and hopes for his children. For now - I'll leave you with Captain EO:















Then there was lil Michael singing BEN for the sequel to Willard!

    What do you have against Ed McMahon, AICN? He was a legend. The first talkshow sidekick, and he did it with grace and aplomb. And boy, could he make Johnny laugh. I loved me some Ed. He helped make The Tonight Show with Johnny Carson. I mean, I'll miss Michael, too, although I don't think there was a chance in hell that he was ever going to get back to the pop genius of Thriller and Off the Wall and Bad. But let's not forget Ed.

    Now, I ain't saying he didn't have problems, but for three or five albums there, we was a genius. The image, the dancing, the concerts, the promotion--for a time there, he was brilliant. The man-child Peter Pan complex got a little weird over time, tho.

    by robinp

    No, I'm not trying to be clever and make a pun. "Ghosts" directed by Stan Winston was a hugely creative video, showcasing several Jackson songs. No idea whether it's available on DVD, I bought mine several years ago back in the days of VHS. I think the ensuing scandal kind of killed the video, to be honest, but Stephen King was credited on it as well. Worth checking out.

    This has probably saved Michael from an increasingly pathetic existence. Debt, health problems, his ever-falling star...he had demons, some possibly unforgivable (not that we'll ever truly know the truth) but his works will live on for what they were, snapshots of brilliance that enamored an entire generation. Michael Jackson has been mercifully saved from old age. Still, there's no such thing as a "good" heart attack. R.I.P. Justin Timberlake and Usher will be paying tribute by continuing to rip off your musical stylings and dance moves for the next ten years, Mr. Jackson.

    He was a big part of my childhood music and idol life. He was pretty young. You have to wonder if maybe he was on medications that might have caused it. Given all the plastic surgery he's endured and god only knows what else. It's what I suspect anyways. The making of Thriller was the first of many life altering things I saw growing up that pushed me to do what I do today as a title. This is sad, no matter how you look at it. R.I.P Michael.

    Regarding his bleached skin

    by verbage

    Michael had Vitiligo, which results in blotchy patches of unpigmented skin, so sometimes people who have this will bleach the remaining pigmented portions so that they don't look quite so freakish. It doesn't change the fact that he had major body image issues, but some of the stories are overblown.

    As a 37 year old guy, I was just at the age where the entire world was going crazy for MJ. My sister was lucky enough to see him perform during the Victory Tour. Something I remember begging to go to.

    In recent years I heard of a comeback tour to once again fix his image here in the states. As I heard it, he was going to do these London dates until next year, then maybe take over Ceasers Palace in Vegas for a set amount of shows. I didn't care if the tickets were going to be 300 bucks or more, I was determined to see "The King of Pop" perform all those songs I loved. Now forever I have to deal with second rate impersonators to fill the void. He will be missed.

So sad :-( Was hoping to see one of his shows in the near future, but sadly this is not to be. What might be even more tragic is the moronic people on this site with their "first" remarks.

    I take nothing seriously and love to jab my little stick at anything with eyeshot. However.... I will say this. I grew up just like everyone else else my age (32) with Michael Jackson as the king of the world. I had the re patent leather jsacket with the 33 fake zippers. Michael Jackson represents something that this world is tottally devoid of: innocence. I know what he's been accused of by people who would exploit there own children all in the name of the mighty dollar. I honestly don;t think the man had that kind of behavior in him and believe me, I am an extremely callused person. I think everyone's guilty of everything. Michaeal just seemed like aboy who withdrew into his own fantasy world because of the pressure of that life at such a young age and never came out of it. He was a little child up until even today. Again, I'm a piece of shit, and I;m an asshole, but I certainly hope that Michael has now found the peace that this world never gave him. Rest in Peace.

    Massive respect for Michael Jackson as an artist.
    He was a genius pop singer, and before that a genius motown singer. A fantasically pure and distinctive vocal delivery.
    Never Can Say Goodbye, I Want You Back, ABC, Can You Feel It, Say Say Say, Billie Jean, Thriller, Beat It... you could go on and on.

  • I grew up with Thriller in my tape deck like most kids in the 80s, but I was over his music by 1988 when I realized "Bad" was not a great album. I disliked his persona, I found him to be a childish person. And whether the molestation allegations are true or not, the guy spent way too much fucking time around kids. This wasn't a man- this was a child. I hate the comparisons to Elvis. Elvis would have sat on Michael and crushed him into a pile of dust. There's only one King.

    You know that somewhere in Hollywood right now...

    by jacklucas

    there is at LEAST one meeting taking place about a rushed biopic. You are going to get TONS of them. There will be the network television movies, the cable television movies (or even series), straight to video knock off rush jobs with a white guy playing Michael and the sure to be Oscar bait big budget star cast Hollywood biopic. As a kid I remember going to a hole in the wall record store to purchase Thriller on vinyl. Even remember performing a lip synch to Beat It in a grade school talent show. The making of the music video for Thriller was one of the first things I can remember introducing me to Rick Baker as I was just a bit young at that point to had seen American Werewolf. Fond memories a plenty in relation to the guy, but sadly in the end he did this to himself. I said about five years back that he was going to end up dying of a heart attack due to all of the surgeries he had endured over the years. But much like Harry, I would have loved to had seen him pull his shit back together and admit his mistakes, get back in the studio to make some even mediocre tunes and get out there on tour again. Hope he's at peace now. Don't think he had much throughout his life.

    CherryValance - if the death of a child molester

    by hint_of_smegma

    ....bums you out and makes you hate the world, then more fool you. The guy was talented, without doubt. He achieved more in terms of his showbusiness career than virtually any other performer. And that would have been fantastic had he also not been a fucking child molester. Whatever the reasons for it, whatever the knocks he had in life as a kid, nothing excuses that and it pretty much wipes out anything good you could ever do to make up for it. I'm not glad the guy is dead, I never knew him so I can't work up that much love or hate. I am disappointed however that he didn't spend the last years of his life in jail. You know, where all the non-famous pedophiles belong. Jeebus, some asshats will excuse anything if someone's famous.

    Groucho Marx had the unfortunate timing to die about the same time as Elvis Presley and have his obit buried. Perhaps the only instance of Groucho having poor timing. And Michael's music isn't "largely forgotten" BMacSmith. Most radio stations that fall into the respective categories (80's, 90's, oldies, pop, retro, R&B, etc) always have a variety of Michael on rotation...and will triple that output over the next 7 days.

  • Music and culturally, with no doubt, it's a BIG loss.

    I can understand that many people wanted him dead (like when Heston passed). I didn't follow any trial, so I prefer not to think about that. As I said, if he did all that things, I hope he's paying now.

    But what I really can't understand is all that people joking about him, not just because they're angry about the pedophille thing, but just for fun. That's so bizarre and inhumane...

    Tragic waste of a life....

    by turdontherun

    Like Elvis going out astride the crapper, it's an undignified end to a bizarre, but occasionly brilliant, life. Jacko was king of the earth, at least in the musical world, between 69-93. Those first rounds of allegtions in '93 hit him hard and he never recovered from them. He became a broken shell of a man from then on, his talent left him, he stopped being interested in making music, and it's become nothing but a freak circus ever since. It's been nothing less than one long, spiralling decline into the abyss.Off The Wall remains his best album - funky, fresh, and alive. His later works were compromised by the enormous success of Thriller and his desire to be all things to all people, and trying to top Thriller's gargantuan success (a fool's game, since it was such an unrepeatable phenomena); everything became too calculated. The one good thing that can come out of this is that the masses of unreleased music he recorded in the 70 and 80's may finally see the light of day. I couldn't give a fuck about Justin Timberdouche doing covers of Billie Jean or some mass public weeping like lady di, not to mention lurid allegations of what he did or did not do with little boys. Who the fuck knows - he was obviously a very, very troubled character by all accounts. His cardiac arrest is alleged to have been brought on by a deliberate suicide attempt, and that would not surprise me one bit. The fear of making a huge comeback with those London shows probably compounded the matter. Anyway, that shit is for the birds - it's all about the music for me.R.I.P. Wacko Jacko, you were one weird, fucked up human being, but you sure gave the world some serious soul in your Motown and early solo career.

    in the moments following Michael Jackson's death -- so many people rushed to the Internet, that it practically stopped the entire WWW in its tracks.

    Facebook, MySpace, Twitter, AIM -- just a few of the scores of major web sites bombed by a tidal wave of traffic. Most of the sites still worked, but the epically high traffic numbers caused them all to move at a snail's pace.

    I usually dont let strange men babysit my daughter, so it's a hard question to answer. But because I wouldnt let him doesnt make him guilty. I honestly dont think he was guitly of what he was accused. But I do think he might have slept in the same bed as some of them... Kinda like I do with my own daughter. For someone other than the parent its pretty weird. But it isnt molesting you know? I just think really was a child at heart since he was robbed of his own childhood... Adn therefore projected that over to other kids.

    With the whole "hole trial" thing... yeah I guess it was pretty funny.

    It's sad whenever anyone dies. But at least he won't molest any more children. All his money, all his fame, but he couldn't get away from his compulsion to sexually fondle little boys, ruining their lives. It's best that he's dead.

    As shocked as I was when my favorite "new" actor Heath Ledger died, this, for me, is the most shocking death of a celebrity since Princess Di.

    RIP Michael Jackson.

    And today, really, is not the time nor place for nasty remarks that I've seen in these comments. There will be other days for comments and speculation of such things, but today is a day to mourn a talent who brought much joy and charity to so many. Everything else is unproven speculation and innuendo.

    The guy blatantly had issues. He had an awful childhood, grew up in public and as an adult seemed to rebel against adulthood. He was a strange strange character but blatantly a product of his upbringing. As I've said to friends tonight, I'll remember the music because that's what I grew up with and that's what I feel is important. After all, most people remember John Lennon for his music as opposed to remembering him as a wife beater, bad father, sometime alcoholic, reformed junkie and politically random person who financially supported the IRA in the 1970's.

    by rippergiles

    Ed McMahon helped discover sick, perverted, mentally impaired little cocksmears like Jackson, and he NEVER, EVER, NOT FUCKING ONCE received any sort of respect from this site supposedly devoted to "entertainment". You have proven yet again, Harry, that you and your assorted basket of geek minions, are incapable of deciding what's more important: the passing of an entertainment legend, a man from an era where you actually had dto have talent and not just a Jew fro, a shrieky voice, or a father with lots of money and a vagina that didn't mind being exposed to be a successful celebrity.
    I would say that this site should be ashamed of itself, but the fucking avalanche into mediocrity I've seen it trickle into just over the past year proves that this is a site maintained by self-professed reporters who operate under internete meme screennames while shoveling the same piles of shit that TMZ, E!, ET, and the other whored up media outlets serve out on a coke spoon.
    Could I do better? I certainly could not do better. And it is because I could not do better that I don't attempt to. Like Granny Flash used to say, "if you can't do a job right, stay home and cuff it to grabs from the Gossip Girl sex tape".
    I preface the following with a warning that I don't actually believe in an afterlife, a supreme savior, or hope that things will get better for us as a world.
    Rest in Peace, Ed McMahon. You battled your demons, but you never once let alcohol be a demon on your shoulder or an excuse for a mad decision. You gave us entertainment, talent, and charm for longer than we deserved. I wish we had an eighth of what you possessed in our entertainment community today, because we're fucking needing it.
    Farrah Fawcett. While you may have risen to fame as a girl running in slo-mo with a gun on an Aaron Spelling jiggle show, you captured the hearts of a nation, became the icon of an era, and battled a poison that sought to rob you of your life and your dignity. The cancer may have taken your life, but you won the battle by leaving this planet with dignity, grace, and inspiration to the scores of folks who similarly battle cancer throughout their bodies.
    Michael Jackson. You rose to fame with your siblings, a perfect example of the Horatio Alger dream of success. You went solo and dominated a decade with your incredible, mind boggling blend of music and dance, revolutionizing the world of pop. Then your fame got to you. Perhaps you were haunted by your childhood. But you self destructed. You became an insult to the legend you built. You turned yourself into a joke, a walking horror cartoon with your dozens and dozens of cosmetic alterations. Michael Jackson died in the early 1990s, when the plastic surgery got out of control, the face he was born with was lost forever, and he became one of the vilest monsters to walk the street freely, raping children he'd invited to his own personal playground. I wish there were an eternity he could be punished in, because he may have found peace, but his victims haven't.

Theres nothing wrong with feelings, it's actions, my friend. I respect everyone and I respect that circumstances are not the same for everyone, some people become megafamous as kids and have their childhoods and lived shunted off into some weird twilight zone. Some people live tiny lives in which their only outlet seems to be stirring up hateful shit on an entertainment forum dedicated to a beloved pop figure. Yeah it's ok to feel superior to those people, but it would put me on their level if I wished death on them or something like that...get it?

    Fucking unbelievable!!!

    by pdennett316

    First off, RIP Mr Jackson.

    Secondly, while I believe the man had severe emotional problems brought on by the lack of a normal childhood, had no concept of taboo boundaries you're not supposed to cross - sleeping in the same bed as a child who isn't yours - and generally being a bit of a wierdy, in NO WAY do I believe he actually raped any children.
    Too many conflicting reports and accounts from the various children who stayed with him, criminal and civil trials finding him not guilty and just the sheer volume of bullshit printed about the man over the years by a media who simply can't wait to tear strips off celebs the world over are enough to convince me he didn't rape anyone.
    Was he mentally stable? No. Was he fit to look after his own children? No. That doesn't make him evil, it makes him fucked up!
    His music and his charity work should be his legacy.....unfortunately I feel the dirt will be dug to further tarnish his memory by the cash hungry hanger's on who plagued him all his life. Fuck them. People are innocent until proven guilty, Jackson was never proven guilty. Even OJ was found guilty in civil court finally righting that wrong, Jackson was innocent. Fucked up, but innocent.
    RIP to a true legend, the most famous person in the world has gone.

    Dear God, would you send me a child?
    Oh God, would you send me a child?
    'Cause I wanna put it up on the TV screen,
    so the world can see what your true word means.
    Lord would you just send me a sign?
    'Cause I just gotta know if I'm wasting my time!

    Now I'm overcome,
    By the light of day.
    My lips are near but my heart is far away.
    Now the war is won,
    Howcome nothing tastes good?

    You're such a sensitive child!
    Oh, you're such a sensitive child!
    I know you're tired but it's alright,
    I just need you to sing for me tonight.
    You're gonna have your day in the sun;
    You know God loves the sensitive ones.

    Oh! My little bird in a cage!
    Oh! My little bird in a cage!
    I need you to get up for me, up on that stage,
    and show the men that you're old for your age.

    But if you don't take it, it'll disappear.

    if you want to pretend he was a saint, have at it. but please don't act to incredulous that some of us are cracking jokes. the man was a pedophile, for christ sake! just because he made hit records he gets a free pass for having sex with children?and please, PLEASE PLEASE stop talking about how he may not have. you really have to be kidding. Neverland ranch is the world's biggest pedo-van!here, have a read from some sworn testimony from one of his cases:"Physical contact between Michael Jackson and myself increased gradually. The first step was Michael Jackson hugging me. The next step was for him to give me a brief kiss on the cheek. He then started kissing me on the lips, first briefly and then for a longer period of time. He would kiss me while we were in bed together.
    [...]Michael Jackson put his tongue in my mouth. I told him I did not like that. Michael Jackson started crying. [...] Michael Jackson said that I did not love him as much as his other friend.
    [...]Michael Jackson then masturbted in front of me. He told me that when I was ready, he would do it for me. While we were in bed, Michael Jackson put his hands underneath my underpants. He then masturbated me to a climax.
    [...]Michael Jackson told me that I should not tell anyone what had happened. He said this was a secret."
    That kid and his family reportedly settled for $15 million. and this wasn't one random crazy thing, he SYSTEMATICALLY PROGRAMMED these kids to have sex with him through manipulation and lies. do you have any idea how fucked up that is? shake the cobwebs out of your brain if you can honestly say that you think he's innocent. I feel bad for him because I know he had a FUCKED up childhood, unbelievable fame and wealth, and it was a toxic combination, but it still doesn't excuse what he did. Ron Howard is normal...

He wasn't convicted... and unlike the OJ farce, it's because the evidence wasn't there.

    On MJ passing. Yes I believe he was the King of Pop whether self proclaimed or not. You have to remember a King fights for his people and everything he has. He fought to get out from his shadow of the Jackson 5. He fought to make himself a solo artist. The Moonwalk is still legendary to this day. I heard he was working on a new dance move that we will never see. Remember a King is never given anything, he takes what he wants. He was a conqueror. He bought and sold the Beatles catalog which showed how smart he was. As for the kids. I do think anybody sues anybody for anything, esp a millionaire. Was MJ insane and obsessed? Probably...when you can do what you want with money, nobody says no to anything I think we all would. I for one will fondly listen to his music and remember.

    by badmrwonka

    means they're pieces of shit, not that nothing happened. remember, they LET THEIR KIDS SLEEP IN HOTEL ROOMS with him in the first place. I'm sure some of them probably even knew what was going on and did nothing.the tortured logic some of you are using is almost making my nose bleed. so the fact that he paid of these parents...a bunch of times...is proof in your mind that probably nothing happened? if nothing happened, wouldn't you want to exonerate yourself? cased that are settled out of court or almost universally viewed as an admission of guilt, and in the vast majority, they are clearly set up for guilty clients to avoid jail time, or lessen their sentence. in MJ's case, he had enough money to hit the magic mark to get the parents to drop the charges entirely. the fact that they were greedy/unscrupulous enough to accept it doesn't mean that nothing happened. quite the opposite. you gotta use your noodles, guys.

    It's really sad that people use this opportunity to attack a man they've never met. When you look at the case against him, it was not so obvious that he ever molested any child. Even so, the court of public opinion can be harsh, especially to someone so outside the social norms as MJ. Personally, I didn't know the man and refuse to cast judgment upon him (that's well above my pay-grade anyways). I just know that I do feel sad that he never got a chance to launch his big comeback. So sad. May you RIP, MJ.

    his music of the 70s and 80s are his legacy. The 90s are when it slowly feel apart with the over the top personal stuff and worse. He called himself the King of Pop. Someone else named Elvis the King. Career-wise, when marketing was more important the music Jackson made, he was done. And the pedophile charges, true or not, didn't help. Still, he did die very young for this day and age. And for a lot of people now in their 20s, 30s, he was, yes, their Elvis. For the rest of us, no. And neither of them was a Lennon.

    It isn't so far fetched with old Jacko. He can use his experience in facial surgery to pull a Mission:Impossible & never be seen again.

Thousands of years from now, if the Earth still turns, MJ will be remembered as a child molester. His life, his legacy, forever and ever marred because of the twisted world we perpetuate. When I think about it, I kinda hope he did molest those kids just because of what the alternative says about the world.

    MJ's obit

    by irrelevntelefant

    Mr. Jackson is survived by a "wife" he never had sex with much less saw naked, two sons who are in no possible way biologically related to him, several pending lawsuits on the behalf of several minors in Bahrain and Los Angeles, and his nose.

    NAMBLA will be flying flags at half mast tomorrow.

    He is off to Never-ever-againLand.

    It's funny to see so many people who are convinced they saw what happened between MJ and these kids. It could have happened. It also couldn't have. I don't have the information to say if it did, and neither does anyone else here.

    online discussions clearly attract many unhappy people who need someone to suffer for them to feel better.

Michael should have stopped being around kids that where not his own. So this shit never happened again, but me, how I feel about it. The man didn't do it, and most of you fuckers talking shit know it as well. You just love to see great people fall/fail/fuck up. He was never found guilty, He never admited it either. You assholes fucking suck for focusing on this aspect of his life. Hope you and your loved ones never face such an accusation. Even Larry King suggested he knew something about the original case from the accuser and was prepared to defend Michael.

    No other song or video will ever come close to being as great or memorable for me. Michael was a big part of my childhood growing up in the 80s and to hear of his death was a very upsetting blow to me. Even through the allegations of molestation I stood by him. Sure I would take part in the lampooning with the South Park episodes and all that but it was just that. He will be missed. I'm gonna go watch Thriller

Legally he could vocalize today about it as an adult. It's bullshit and you fucking know it. Scummy parents.... Yeah sure it was a fix the whole way through. Michael's probably gay, that I could believe and it would explain lots of things. His self image hatred, but you know a person like that doesnt go 20 something years with the prolific talents he had around him and yet still manage to have that type of lifestyle quiet for so long.

    by cylon_conspiracy

    Then a supposed "child molester" dies, and it gives them a chance to point out how good they are, how deserving they are of love respect because they are "sticking up for kids". That's how much they hate themselves. "I may be a huge loser who will die alone, but at least I ain't no pedophile and I'll make damn sure the world knows it!"

    And I'm not saying that as an insult. He was someone with a lot of problems, not the least of which may have been a weird, non-existant childhood. I always felt -- this is just a possible opinion of mine -- that his comments about it being ok to sleep in a bed with children is ok, because he didn't do anything sexual with them. He was weird, maybe even disturbed, but I don't think he was an actual child molester. I think we should feel bad for the guy. We'll probably hear some weird circumstances behind this death, eventually.

Because after all, all innocent people have no desire to be exonerated, and only want to pay up.

    Legal issues

    by dataset

    We have a legal system where once someone is found not guilty, then they are NOT GUILTY. If we try to circumvent this system it will collapse. The rule of law depends on a judge and jury finding for or against something. So OJ is innocent of murder as well as Jackson of molestation. That's it. In my opinion, they both are shady characters who have lived in such a way that suspicion will always be there. Just to be tried is the legal version of an Oscar nomination. You only get one of those if you make a good film, and you only go to trial if there is evidence against you. But they are not winners of the Murder or Molestation Oscars. They were just nominated for it. As an old punk from the mid-80's, I really couldn't ever bring myself to give a fuck about MJ. But as an adult I find I like the Motown stuff. There's really great grooves there. That's the Michael Jackson I'll remember, not the mallrat worshiped evil from my youth.

  • ... In fact our legal system requires that even if a person appears to have PROBABLY done a crime, but there is a reasonable possibility that there is an innocent explanation, the accused must be found NOT GUILTY. That is, even if he most likely did it, he is treated as though he had not! It's a good system for a flawed universe like ours-- better that 10 guilty men go free than that 1 suffer unjust prosecution, and all that-- but don't fool yourself: no legal system has EVER found that OJ or Jackson were INNOCENT.

    by irrelevntelefant

    stay the night alone with him? (I know you'll answer yes in the TB because to do otherwise would expose the limit to which you would really defend him) I don't question his talent. OJ was talented as shit on the football field, doesn't mean he didn't kill 2 people Just because if you had millions and were put in his situation, you would payoff a family that was falsely accusing you of being a PEDOPHILE.... well, that's you I wouldn't return sunglasses to OJ's girlfriend and I wouldn't let my kid alone with Michael (and I felt that way long before I had a kid).

    I'm glad the courts assume one is innocent until proven guilty, but that doesn't mean one is innocent in real life. Period. Jackson was probably a pedophile. His own statements come way way too close to admitting it for anyone to overlook.... So I understand what innocent until proven guilty means perfectly well-- and I understand that in the real world, that don't mean shit.

    Grippy Longstocking - 20 fucking million...

    by hint_of_smegma

    ...buys a lot of cream to salve the sore ass, along with the desires for justice. What the fuck are you tripping on? That family was money grubbing from the start, they had to be to be ok with MJ having their kid stay overnight unsupervised in the first place. You're surprised they took the 20 mill when it was offered to drop the case? And why wouldn't an innocent man want himself exonerated? Give me a break. He was never convicted thanks to his money buying himself out of a jail cell. Ask yourself if you'd be so willing to believe in the 'innocence' of a 40-odd year old guy accused of the same allegations, who then inexplicably paid off the accuser who promptly dropped the case - if they weren't famous. Face it, the only reason you want to believe he's inncoent is because he's famous, and you liked him as an artist on some level. Any other middle aged guy in the same boat and you'd probably be in the front of the crowd lobbing stones.

Right, I'm sorry, the psycho kid toucher with an unlimited amount of funds deserves our respect because he bought his way out of every jam he ever faced. The guy was living off of a period of about 12 years of truly inspired work for decades thereafter. Was he talented? Unbelievably so. But he morphed into a creature, unrecognizable and truly disturbed. If only he was a member of the 27 club (along with Hendrix, Joplin and Cobain). Maybe then he would have been spared his disgrace.

    IT WAS A DEMEROL OVERDOSE

    by doctorzoidberg

    From the Sun: An Emergency Room source at UCLA hospital said Jackson aides told medics he had collapsed after an injection of potent Demerol — similar to morphine.

    A Jacko source said: “Shortly after taking the Demerol he started to experience slow shallow breathing.

    “His breathing gradually got slower and slower until it stopped.

    “His staff started mouth-to-mouth and an ambulance was called which got there in eight minutes “Butfound he was in full respiratory arrest, no breathing and no pulse. They started full CPR and rushed him to hospital.

    “When he arrived they started resuscitation, giving him heart shocks and inserted a breathing tube and other supportive measures to try and save his life.

Sure The King of Pop once made some great music and entertained us all with some amazing dance moves, etc. but all that is overshadowed by his sickening personal behavior.

    The media has made Michael look like a pedophile weirdo and you fucks just listen to them like sheep. Sure he was a little weird. Maybe even a freak. But in the end we're all a little fucked up by our past or childhoods. That doesn't erase what we achieve in our lives. He was accused of child molestation the first time and claimed he paid the family off because he was instructed by his lawers that a trail would damage his career. Well it did anyway and we will never know if it was true or not but I know true loving parents wouldn't just take a check and pretend their son wasn't raped. And he was found not guilty the second time. So just like how the media has forced garbage like Paris Hilton's celebrity status in our faces they called him something he was never convicted or proven of just because he doesn't fit in our image driven society. You bitches rather remember him for here say than all of the actual proven good he has done for unfortunate children as well as being a music icon. We will never know what happened in those shady moments but for fuck sakes if your going to insult the man at least be original with it and make decisions without following the media like droids.

    Totally agree, old friend. I'm actually shocked (shocked!) by the outpouring of adoration for this crazy pedo. I don't deny his groundbusting talent back in his day, but he definitely morphed into something that should've been locked in a mental hospital if only for his own good. Not to mention he was surrounded by parasites who enabled him.

    To discover this sad shocking news reading a Transformers 2 talkback here in AICN, heh. Thriller, Billie Jean and Beat It ruled my childhood too. I recorded a whole tape with only Thriller mixes. Vincent Price's voice was da shit... I think Prince Roger Nelson was the better artist, but MJ and Quincy Jones, together, they were the Kings of the Awesomeland.

    He did a lot of good things for people and raised money for the poor and hungry and sick. We should appreciate the things he did. He had his drawbacks and yet never convicted of anything wrong whatsoever..So, we all have been influenced by him. Like it or not.

    listen, i don't think anyone is asserting that MJ was anything less than looney, but that doesn't mean that the guy molested all those children. maybe his psyche really was fractured/stunted as a child due to Joe's relentless demands, among other things. maybe children were the only people he could relate to and/or felt comfortable around. who's to say? all *i* know is that when tried for the crime you all are accusing him of committing, he was found NOT GUILTY. and seeing as how i (like you) wasn't there the night in question; nor do i (again, like you) possess evidence to the contrary, i'll take that ruling as proper.

    Someone with Peter Pan syndrome..

    by the dark shite

    Who thought he was a kid, wouldn't have the awareness to tell people that's what it was. He'd think it was normal.

    What he did, was basically explain his actions as being a syndrome, (through his PR people) & that way he could live in any twisted, fucked up way he wanted.

    He was a man, with a man's IQ. You could see that in the Bashir interview. Batshit crazy, but a man, nonetheless.

    I work in Japan, where children spend 98% of their time studying. I'm sure in the third world, most kids are working by the age of 5.

    If people turned out weird because they "didn't have a childhood", half the world would be as fucked up as Jackson was.

    Did I hear NAMBLA has called for all erections to be at half mast tomorrow?
    Yeah.
    Did I wonder as they tried to resusitate MJ, if a priest had been called to wave an altar boy over him to get some kind of reaction?
    Yeah, again
    But then I remembered he is the same age I am. I remembered seeing him on Ed Sullivan. I remembered seeing "Ben" and the start of his solo career. I remember the start of MTV and how most of the really decent videos were made by Michael Jackson. I remembered Off the Wall and Thriller. I remembered Captain EO. I remembered hearing about how his life was walled in by tabloids and family problems. I remembered sad I felt for him and how disappointed I felt when accusations started. This was someone I never knew, but I grew up with. Where his life shriveled and collapsed under the weight of his personal demons, mine has improved slowly and constantly. I have been luckier than he, so perhaps I should also be kinder to him.

Innocent people DO NOT pay that much money to avoid a court trial. That's witness payoff money. I hope that family will now bring out the truth of what happened, now that he's gone. Let's also hope his kids turn out about 100 times better now that they don't have such a freakish influence in their lives.

    Who remebers the game where he ran around collecting children and made the bad guys dance until they blew up. It was a decent Rolling Thunder/Shinobi knock-off with some cool 16-bit versions of his tunes. The arcade version was even better. I think when he picked up Bubbles the Chimp he turned into a giant robot who shot lasers out of his eyes. Genesis does....what Nintendon't!

Where the fuk was/is the outrage for convicted paedo/pedo's? Where the fuk is the outrage and sympathy for children who are molested every fukken day? Why the fuk do you save it simply for this TB? And don't fukken tell me that it is because no other TB's talk about child molesters accused or otherwise, because every last black rhino fukked one of you has taken TB's about one subject and ranted about completly different things. So if any of you truly felt such fukken outrage about paedo/pedo's you fukken kept it giant fukken secret until now when you can spew you own brand of hatred. I aint fukken defendin a child molester - accused or otherwise. And talent does not excuse behavior. But I fukken hate jackasses whose only purpose in life is to post why you hate someone or something because it is convenient and popular, but in reality you don't give a fuk other than 'lookit me I'm bashing that paedo!'

Shame on the parents who sent their children to his care, shame on those who have permitted him to screw up the lives and social skills of the three children he "fathered," and shame on the famous family that didn't put a stop to his self-mutilation years ago because they needed their gravy train to keep rolling.

    Quincy Jones made MJ a superstar

    by mundungus

    It's true he was a great singer & dancer, but QJ was responsible for all the good music.

    I've read before that MJ didn't like how much credit QJ got for the smash albums. Could be tabloid bs but considering he named himself the king of pop and refused to go to the MTV video awards unless they created some type of award for him (although he hadn't released any music that year), it seems likely.

    QJ stopped working with MJ after Bad and the mass appeal went with him.

    Looks to me like MJ went kinda nuts after Thriller's success and just drifted farther away from reality as time passed. Like Elvis, he had no one but ass kissers for company. There certainly wasn't anyone there to tell him to quit fucking up his nose, that there are limits to plastic surgery, and pedophilia (real or perceived) is bad.

    I think most people would remember him fondly if one could regard everything after 1985 as an era where he was really too mentally ill to be harshly judged. But the reality is we can forgive eccentricity and volumes of crap music, but not ... well, you know.

    I know I'll always like what he did in The Wiz.

    by melvin_pelvis

    "I come to you today with great sadness, acknowledging the loss of the greatest entertainer in the history of mankind. For me he was more than that, he was my idol, he was a role model, he was someone to cry to when my childhood was unbearable, he was a brother, he was a dear friend. Unfortunately Michael and I had a falling out on September 10th 2001 and that broken friendship had never been repaired … I am filled with tremendous sadness and remorse. All I choose to remember from this point is the good times we shared and what an inspiration he was to me and the rest of the world. Nobody will ever be able to do what Michael Jackson has done in this industry, and he was so close to doing it all again. I am truly, and deeply sorry for all of the heartbroken fans and supporters worldwide."

    The station has zero to do with what it once was. It was called "Music Television", which seemed to mean music was involved. And before the internet, that's where you saw videos related to music. That and Friday Night Videos on NBC.

    Why don't they just call it RTV for reality tv or even YTV for youth tv. In a few years people will wonder why the word music is involved. It's poor brand management.

    he just wasn't. He was massively popular & if you were a fan then that's cool by me.

    But, 2 of The Beatles are dead & they haven't released any new material in 40 yrs or so, even still, they sell more albums each year. That makes them bigger.

    Who said good as in morale and yeah MJ did a whole lot more then JB, lil Richard or Marvin Gaye ever did. Before white kids wanted to be rappers every one in the in 80s wanted to be MJ, regardless of race. He had a presence strong enough to transcend the racial barriers. In the end JB, Richard and Gaye will be known as MoTown which for a long time was associated with primarily black people. Jackson will be the first African American to be on MTV and no one will ever look back. He had a better physical presence then Elvis on stage and his music would influence generations on generations. Its a big loss no matter what happened later in life. Walt Disney was an anti-Semite. Should we all ignore PIXAR owned by Disney?

    Yeah, he bought the Beatles songs. But NOT from The Beatles, which is what you seem to be saying.

    There's no other reason you would say that, unless you thought that owning their music somehow made him bigger.

    The Beatles never owned their music. They signed a contract back in the 60's that meant their record company owned it. Eventually, it became available & Jackson bought it from EMI & totally fucked over his supposed friend Paul McCartney, who wanted to buy it.

    McCartney offered an amount that would secure the rights. Jackson waited until the last minute & out-bid him. Whic is why McCartney never spoke to him again.

    Sorry kid you're showing your young age. At the time MTV kids were practically non existent. The all white line up led to a very struggling station that needed quite of bit of coxing to get MJ to perform at all. I didn't say MJ was bigger then Elvis but that he had better presence. But now that I think about it he was about as big as Elvis. Look Elvis did his thing but he also had a lot of hate in his time. We only see him him as a whole now. Give Michael a few posthumous years. Then we judge.

    He didn't "own" The Beatles..

    by the dark shite

    He owned their back catalogue for a short time. He hasn't owned it for a long time. Had to sell it.

    & it had nothing to do with his stature. As far as I've read, bascially, people stood back & let Macca get his music back. Jackson fucked him over.

    I'm not saying the self-proclaimed "King of Pop" wasn't big. Just not as big or "bigger" than The Beatles, which is a fucking ridiculous thing to say.

    Elvis was "The King of Rock n' Roll" because people gave him the title. Jackson was "The King of Pop" because he went to an awards show & said "Elvis was the king of rock n' roll. I wanna be the King of Pop." True story.

    Just 'cause the press did it, doesn't change the fact that he gave that title to himself.

His fall from grace was embarrassing and shameful, something which the media couldn't get enough of. And now he's dead they're acting like he was fucking Jesus. Cunts, perhaps? The sorry and sad spectacle that Jacko had become was a painful thing to observe, and to me he died long ago: The Jackson 5 era=Yeah baby, Off the Wall=Ace, Thriller=Fuck Yes, Bad=Erm okay I guess but looking weird now, Dangerous=What the fuck, History=He most definately is, Invincible="Holy shit did you see how fucked up he looked in that video with Chris Tucker?" Now the final chapter has been written maybe we all try and forget the creepy fucker he turned into and think back to a time when his talent was all that mattered.

  • He has a joint venture with Sony called the Sony ATV catalogue that controls the publishing rights of a few hundred thousand songs. McCartney and the Lennon estate (Yoko) still get their 50% royalty and Jackson/Sony get the other 50%. But Jackson controls publishing, meaning synchronization rights, other artists recording the songs, etc. How the fuck do you think he was able to borrow all of that money and get into such heavy debt the last few years? Companies, Sony included, are SALIVATING at the prospect of acquiring that other 50%. And these stories of him being broke ARE ABSOLUTELY RIDICULOUS. He may have run up $300 million in debt, but he's not broke, he has a cash flow and management problem. He was spending more than he was earning, which was still considerable. If he had cut his spending, he'd have been able to pay that money back in a few years on the back of the Sony/ATV catalogue royalties alone, nevermind the fact that he never properly exploited his own back catalogue, like every artist is adept at nowadays. No, his biggest problem is and always has been poor financial decisions and bad management, all of which has been possible because he made one super fucking smart decision 25 years ago to outbid Yoko and Paul by DOUBLING their offer. The most recent estimates about his half of the catalogue place the worth at around $500 million and his ow catalogue to be worth about $100 million. When you consider the LOOONG term cash flow both represent, I'd say that would be a bargain.

    Yes Zeegloo, there are some real sickos in this TB

    by mediagold

    I mean really, how totally blind do these fanatics have to be to defend the raging prince of pedophilia like Michael Jackson! They're just like the Muslims sticking up for their pedo prophet.

    And cloudrider, if all it takes is to lie to collect $20 million, then Cheryl Tiegs grabbed my butt when I was 8. Where's my check? That kind of cash does not get ponied up unless some horseplay is involved.

    Bottomline, he made some great music but was a very sick man who was in deep denial, just like you guys. Remember when he told Martin Bashir he'd only had one operation on his face in that 2005 interview? HA!

    Don't blame anyone else but Michael Jackson for his humilation. He did it to himself. What a waste.

    first of all, this guy didnt lead your kind or my kind of normal life. so he behaves unconventially, so he acts like an alien species, so what? can you say with absolute certainty that he did molest child? even the 12 juries in the court didnt buy that. what genius doesnt have his/her own eccentricities?

    by alucardvsdracula

    It's just ignoranth when people talked doo doo about St Michael Jackson's love of little boys, when he loved all god's children (under the age of 12). He wasn't a pedophille but a genius musician and it just isn't possible for someone as talented as him to be both things at once. It just isn't possible. Sure, if he was a 50 year old weird black guy who lived in your neighbourhood who had been arrested TWICE for child molestation we could understand it. However, because he was the "king of pop" it just isn't possible. St Jackson was a God, way BEYOND a regular maladjusted human beings sensations and feelings of sexual nature, so it just wasn't possible for him to be aroused by the children he shared his bed with. Now please carry on with the vomit enducing spiel about this legendary children's entertainer while I go pay my respects to David Carradines grave.

    What we do is that he was extremely disturbed and was a stunted man-child who admitted he slept in the same bed as kids that weren't his own. Any sane human being would have warning bells going off on after hearing that. It doesn't matter whether he is or isn't, the guy was clearly not healthy around kids.

    he might not be a good influence around kids. he might be a bad parent. but that doesnt make him a pedo.

    On the brighter side

    by offmehead

    What's the difference between Alex Ferguson and Micheal Jackson? Fergie will be playing Giggs next season.



    Funeral directors have said that if Michael Jackson is cremated, he will be melted down into plastic dolls so that kids can play with him for a change



    Latest news, Michael Jackson's last breath was to whisper to paramedics on his way to hospital... "Put me on the children's ward



    Today tributes were pouring in. One fan said “Michael touched many people in his life….most were boys between the ages of 10 and 14”



    Due to his unfortunate death. Michael Jackson's dates have been cancelled. They were Thomas aged 6 and Kevin aged 9



    I dont feel any emotion for MJs death... Guess he never really touched me when I was younger...



    Apparently Michael Jackson died picking his nose. Doctors said they couldn’t blame it on the sunshine or the moonlight. They blamed it on the boogie



    What is the difference between Michael Jackson and Farrah Fawcett? About three hours.



    Michael Jackson died and went to heaven, St. Peter says, “you know Michael , we really can’t let you in here, you did a lot of bad things down on earth. Michael pleads with St. Peter to let him in and states that he’ll do anything to get in, not wanting to go to hell and all. St. Peter agrees to ask God if there is anything they can do, God tells St. Peter he’ll let Michael into heaven on one condition, he’ll have to fight someone and if he wins they’ll admit him. Michael agrees seeing its his only option. The pearly gates open and and Elvis walks out shouting, “where is that weird son of a bitch that married my daughter”



    MJ didn't have a heart attack, he was found on the childrens ward having a stroke...



    I heard mcdonalds is making a burger in commemoration of Michael Jackson death. It'll be called the mcjackson burger, and is one 50 year old piece of meat in between 2 8 year old buns.



    Apparently, Michael Jackson's ghost has been seen on a childrens hospital ward. Even in death, he's trying to put the willies up little children. :)



    Due to concerns for the environment, Michael Jackson will not now be cremated, he is to be recycled instead



    Michael Jackson’s relatives first words to the undertaker were “do you take plastic?”

    Just came back from his star on Hollywood blvd

    by joker gordon levitt

    It was a crazy time. Someone brought a large amp and played MJ songs from their iPod. The crowd was assembled across the street from his star, which was being blocked by the Bruno premier until about 1am ish. The mob danced to his songs, cheered his name, and even said a group prayer. Of course it being Hollywood, there was some cracked out biyatch making a fool of herself and flashing her nasty teets, but the mood was light. Eventually they let the crowd move across the street to see his star. They moved the wreath, flowers, signs, and candles to the star and fenced off a small area to keep it safe. One by one people were allowed to take pictures of the star surrounded by roses, handmade signs, and drawings. The man behind me was dressed like Jesus, and he knelt by the star and said a prayer. It was weird, but it was Hollywood. A great memorial for an entertainment legend.

    some of his later videos would have been if he hadnt had his surgeries and skin problems.

    I'm just wondering whose next? We black people have lost 3 of elite (Isaac, Bernie now Mike!?!?!?) It's not looking good...

    MJ death will be the new "Elvis is not dead" theory

    by dasher

    With all of the mystery about MJ's death, I am sure it won't be long -if it hasn't happened already - before people claim that he really didn't die and that he staged his death as a publicity stunt. Like for instance, the name of his comeback tour was "This Is It" and he talked about "the final curtain call" at his press conference in March. All of which means that we'll start seeing a lot more MJ impersonators in Vegas. Which means that MJ is the new Elvis, both in life and in death.

    it's because he tried to carve his face to look like peter pan.

    and that isn't a joke. look at walt disney's rendering of peter pan and then look at MJ. the upturned, pointy nose. the pronounced chin. the neverland ranch. the fear of death and growing up.

    there is no sense arguing how he should be remembered. it is what is - there were always two sides to MJ. there was the terrific music early on and then mental illness in the latter part of his life.

    it isn't one or the other. it's both.

    My MJ story from last night

    by pancho_villa

    So I was at Starbucks reading a book trying to enjoy my quiet time. There were two sets of parents and their kids that range from the age of 10-16. One of the girls couldn't keep it together because MJ was dead. Her mother told her "honey it is ok. Michael Jackson is in Heaven now and is in a much better place"

    I let the first one slide. I just kept on reading. Then the little brat just wouldn't shut up. Damnit this is my fucking quiet time and I don't need to hear some little girl cry about MJ. So when her parents decided to comfort her again with the "he's in a better place bullshit" I spoke up.

    ~ "Excuse me but as a fellow Christian I just want to make a comment to your daughter."

    ~ "Oh hi, go right ahead"

    ~ "I am sad just like everyone else about Michael Jackson's death but here is the reality. He is not in a better place. He was a Jehovah"s Witnesses. They don't believe in the New Testament. Hence he is in hell burning up like the sinner he was."

    The two fathers started talking some trash telling me how that wasn't the Christian thing to do. So I had to tell them "you are not raising your kids right. Being the king of pop does not save him from eternal damnation be honest with them it will save you money in therapy later"

    They got up and left. As they were leaving I had to just scream out "and kids don't do drugs"

Just the bizarre way he lived his life, the fact that he's had so much plastic surgery that he was barely recognizable as a human, to all the lawsuits and scandals.

    *sigh* Weighing in re: criminal vs. civil

    by the bicycle sharer

    Make of it what you will, the parents of those kids who sued Jackson in civil court have little or no say to whether or not a district attorney pursues CRIMINAL charges.The standard of guilt in CRIMINAL trials is "beyond reasonable doubt." The standard of guilt in CIVIL trials is "preponderance of evidence." Thus, "guilt/liability" in a civil trial can be apportioned by the court.Obviously, it seems that, for whatever reason, the DAs in Jackson's second trial did not feel they had the "evidence" ("beyond reasonable doubt") to pursue CRIMINAL charges against Jackson. Nonetheless, the judge in the CIVIL trial was confident enough in the evidence to allow a trial. (Otherwise, he'd have simply issued a directed verdict or thrown out the case.) In the end, Jackson was found NOT GUILTY in the civil case.

Godspeed!(How awful is it that, despite years of watching Ed and Johnny, what I remember most about him was the late, great Phil Hartman's "you are correct, sir" straight man to Dana Carvey's Carson!?!?!?)

    The World Has Lost a Great Performer

    by nexxus7

    Whatever shortcomings Michael Jackson may have had in his personal life, and whether or not he was guilty of heinous crimes, his talent as a performer, entertainer and musician was undenyable. For those who somehow seek to make themselves feel better by trashing or insulting a tragic man who died, get a life because yours is pathetic. The reality is that he was not a very well educated young man who was put to work from the age of 5. He was essentially the equivalent to a musical savant, and as such could never truly find a balance. My guess is he was a repressed homosexual, but who knows. I think folks would be surprised to learn of some of the crime some of their favorite celebrities have/continue to get away with. For years I found his behaviour, decision and antics to be everything from wacky to creepy. But then I started to think that this must be a man who has lived his life under crushing pressure, with opportunists all around him, in a bubble and had never gotten the intense therapy he clearly needed. He was too powerful, too rich, too naive, and like Howard Hughes, probably kept in that condition by enablers, hangers-oners and opportunists who benefitted from it.
    At any rate, as someone who grew up on the Jackson Five, Michael Jackson, the Jacksons and every other interation, it is a sad day. I hope he is finding the peace that eluded him in life.

    On a different note, scanning through I didn't see a mention of MICHAEL JACKSON'S GHOSTS. Sure it didn't compare to the THRILLER video, but it was decent and was directed by a one STAN WINSTON. I hope they release a definitive video collection that would include this long-form video.

    Jackson being melted down so that kids can...oh. Okay. A hundred times on this talkback you say? How about the food poisoning because of a nine year old weiner? That one too? Damn. All I have to say is that as talented as Jackson was, he was equally fucked-up, and all this ridiculous hyperbole going on is starting to drive me crazy. "HE'S THE GREATEST HUMAN THAT EVER LIVED!!!". I know I'll be called racist for saying this, but a lot of Black people are acting like Gandhi died. Beyonce says he's the greatest music composer of all time. Really?? More than Beethoven, Gershwin, Lennon and McCartney? I understand everyone exaggerates when someone dies, and there's no doubt Jackson made some great music and was a huge phenomenon. And PS he was a total freak, a mentally ill, pill popping pedophile. Anyone who doesn't see that has to be fucking blind. So...let's put it all in context. He was a tremendous performer and a train wreck. We all knew he was going to die young and he's better off, honestly. And his kids are better off. Especially the one he named "Blanket". What the fuck was that about??

    ...that you and Corey Haim once got really high on coke and began making out, and then Haim slipped his index finger into your brown eye and was trying to hit your sweet spot, and at first you were like "Woah", and he was like "Sorry, dude", and then you were like "No, don't stop. I've got an itch that only you can scratch, but your finger isn't reaching it." And then Haim took off his trousers and began ramming your prostate gland, and you were like "Unh...unhhhh...unhhhh", and then he sprayed his milky liquor all over your rectum, and then you reciprocated with the same while giving him a reacharound, and this continued all through the night, and when you woke up the next morning you were surrounded by the cast and crew of "License to Drive" who found the two of you spooning on the floor of the set and covered in each others cum?

    It sucks that Michael Jackson’s death is totally over shadowing Farah Fawcett’s. This could have been an opportunity to get the word out and get some support for cancer research but now she’s just sort of disappeared. I feel bad for her family too.

    Yeah, I know everyone knows about cancer. But people in this twitter, facebook, Youtube culture tend to not think about things that aren't shoved in their face every 3 seconds of everyday. Not that I want that much coverage of cancer; but you ever notice how when someone famous dies of something there is usually a breif surge in interest that can bring in funding. This could have been the lead story for a few days and brought in some money. As someone who's beaten cancer I would like to see more funding for research.

    What type of cancer was it, if you don't mind me asking?
    Farrah had anal cancer, and there's a good chance that it was caused by HPV, the virus that causes genital and anal warts. So vaccinated girls against HPV will help prevent them from getting it...and I think boys should get it, too. Hell, I want it.

    Yeah, sorry that's not a fact. I'm sure a vegan diet will prevent instances of cancer that are specifically caused by diet, but I'm pretty sure veggies can't stop electromagnetic waves from damaging DNA.

    even though I remember vividly that American Music Awards broadcast when he first brought out the moonwalk, I remember staying up late to watch the Thriller video on Friday Night Videos (before we had cable and MTV), and I remember making my own little homemade remixes of Thriller songs on my turntable and cassette recorder. But then I remembered my first concert when I was five years old was the Jackson Five at the Front Row Theatre in Cleveland in 1975, with the smoke machine, glitter, platform boots, and fros. Then I got a little sad.
    I think he was a pedophile (someone who loves children in ways that society deems inappropriate), but not necessarily an abuser (there's a difference).
    But I do hope the Beatles catalogue goes back to Paul. When he dies, I'll be a wreck, I know it.

    by kevinwillis.net

    But I really don't see the point in arguing it. David Brock had an epiphany, after meeting many evil Republicans, that most of his core beliefs were wrong. Now he's a mega-liberal. I dunno. I don't think Dennis Miller is a coward, I just think he's . . . Dennis Miller.Then again, I was a liberal, once, and 4 years of art school helped cure me of that. So I've been through a process of having many beliefs--peripheral beliefs, often more than core beliefs, but it makes a difference--swayed and changed over time. But you are certainly entitled to your opinion, and I'm not trying to change it.

    Feldman was cooler than Haim, no doubt about it

    by verbage

    No one likes Haim anymore. Haim is like that kid you were friends with in grade school. He was smart and a tad nerdy, but you guys were buds. Then one day he meets some other kids and he ditches you and grows a mullet, wears hightop sneakers and starts listening to Judas Priest. You see him around school in Junior High and High School but he never talks to you anymore because he thinks he's better than you. He's part of the bad kids who hang out in front of 7-11 smoking cigarettes and partying on the weekend with the girls who take mostly beauty classes and want to become hair dressers. Then you go to college and you stop at 7-11 during an all-nighter to get some munchies and coffee, and there he is, still outside smoking cigarettes, and you feel embarassed for him, but in a way you feel vindicated. Then years later, you've got a good job and you stop at the drive thru at Wendy's, and he's taking your order. Now you just feel disgusted by him, no sympathy, just disgust, because this was a kid who was once smart and had potential to be something, but he threw it all away and pretended to be something he wasn't just to get some mallrat pussy. Feldman's path was pretty much the same as Haim, but that was always his fate because he was a dumb motherfucker to begin with, so there was no loss. All things considered, at least Feldman got a lot of pussy which is pretty good considering how ugly his mug is.

    I think he was a pedophile, but in an innocent way, if that's possible. His desire to make children feel good inside was stronger than his curiosity as to just how good they feel inside. Although that thing where the kid had the birthmarks on his dick memorized was pretty suspicious. Ever do one of those brain tests where you stare at an image for like a minute and then answer questions about it? That kid would have to have had a lot of time to study Michael Jackson's junk to get 100% on the test.

    I guess the difference is your beliefs changed by the same method they were formed, intellectual process. Whereas Dennis's were changed all at once, instantly as a direct result of the actions of another person. Sort of like when a vocal pro-life proponent suddenly changes their tune when their kid gets knocked up. I guess the bottom line is if your original set of beliefs were insincere enough to be dropped just like that, why would I ever trust that your new set of beliefs is sincere?

  • so trust me, the legal system is fucked beyond repair and it doesn't matter if you are guilty or innocent. I was accused of a crime I did not commit but was promised by a public defender (pretender) that if I merely shut up and claimed "no contest" instead of going to trial, that I would save my family the humiliation of going through that. I was told I would get six months to a year of probation. Instead I got one to two years in fucking prison. So yeah, I can truly see someone with as much money as he had paying those families up to shut the fuck up and leave him alone. At the end of the day, that is what most people want in this world. For everyone to just leave them alone and let them live. The guy was strange. He had a fucked childhood and chose to use his money to try and regain it positively by surrounding himself with other kids who were having a rough time. But what those families did to him was a fucking disgrace and in the end, yeah, I believe he paid them off to get them out of his life quickly instead of trudging through a trial where he KNEW all kinds of sick shit would be made up about him and paraded around by the prosecution as "facts". If any of you fucking jackasses calling him a pedophile did any research into how many celeberties pay off publicity seeking fuckholes leveling false accusations at them each year, you might realize that not everything people say is the truth. Then again, most of you live on the internet where it has become the norm to hold the head of ignorance high. This world is truly on the verge.

    The problem with Dennis Miller...

    by azultool

    He committed the cardinal sin for any political comedian. He took a side. It doesn't matter which side either. If you're an unapologetic shill for one of the two parties, you're over as a comedian. Dennis used to be a great comedian because he skewered whoever was in power. From Reagan, to Bush 41, to Clinton. Which is the way to do it. Then, 911 happened, and he became the Fox News guy. It's sad, because he was truly great.

    The public defender can only base his projections based on past experiences, sincere or not he has no control over what the judge does. Also, you entrusted your life to a person with no vested interest whatsover in whether or not you went to prison. That has nothing to do with whether or not a system is broken, it's simply a very, very bad decision.

    The Media is to blame for all the rumors

    by cylon_conspiracy

    Did anyone see the two hour dateline special they had on NBC, one hour for MJ and one hour for Farrah Fawcett? The hour for MJ was about 10 percent his music career, and the rest was about allegations into his sex life. That was their "tribute" or "obituary" to MJ. Fact is if the media was even remotely responsible (fat chance) we wouldn't hold these horrible views of other human beings (celebrities are still human beings, I kid you not). They destroy lives and reputations for ratings and then the rest of the world starts parotting their garbage... convinced that since they saw it on TV it must be true, and having to tell the whole world that they DO NOT APPROVE of child molestation. Thanks for feeling the need to point that out. And I am 100% AGAINST BEATING UP OLD GRANDMOTHERS WITH THEIR OWN WALKERS. IT'S WRONG!.

    I'm really surprised that Perez Hilton isn't on TV or Dateline giving commentary about Jacko's life. Maybe he is, I haven't watched any tv today.

    As a kid, I thought Michael was a good performer. I remember his "Thriller" and "Billie Jean" videos on MTV. He was pretty huge back then.
    Can't say I've given much of a shit about him since. Saw his surgery-marred face, read the creepy allegations, and heard the entertainment news stuff... wasn't interested and didn't care.
    But when I was a kid, I thought he was pretty cool.

    Considering that Pitfall most likely sees Dubya's 'crimes' as 'triumphs' I think you're preaching to the wrong choir there.

    All politicians are hypocrites, through and through, and the entire system we've setup for electing them is basically a request to be lied to. We don't just ask to be bullshitted, we actually pre-define the bullshit we want them to give us, and basically tell them 'if you don't recite this bullshit back to me, you don't get the job'. So let's not pretend any of these people are sincere. What we SHOULD care about however, above all else is the maturity and intellect of the people we put in charge *of the planet*. Now, if you're a complete fucking hillbilly, you equate intellect with 'elitism' and general faggotry. But if you're even remotely close to a reasonably thinking human being, you hopefully realize that intelligence is a good thing, especially when you're making decisions that effect the entire human race. And while John McCain seemed like a pretty smart guy, Sarah Palin is a highschool cheerleader in a pantsuit. She's pretty and popular, but she thinks the world is only 5,000 years old. Republican or Democrat, we dodged a huge, embarrasing bullet by keeping her out of the White House.

    Like everyone of my generation I was a massive Michael Jackson fan in the 80's. He truly was an amazing revolution at the time. I'm pretty sure his moonwalk sparked the entirely of breakdancing. And has anyone ever got "mamma say mamma sah mamma coo sah" out of their head? The man was a genious of music and dance at one time, though I don't think he had much of that left in him at the end.

    Indiana Jones and the curse of the Neverland Ranch

    by azultool

    Highlights include: **A chase scene featuring a leather studded carousel and a steroid-enhanced, rabid Bubbles. **A torture/interrogation scene where Jacko makes Indy drink the Slurpee of the Kali Ma out of a little leaguer's protective cup. **The Final Standoff where Indy throws Jacko into a giant cotton candy machine, and emancipates the little boy slaves. It'll be better than KOTCS.

    Once again, there is a dude driving a Lexus around who is contractually obligated to not paint you a watercolor rendering of the blotch patterns on Michael Jackson's dick. No matter how many times you ask him to, he just won't do it. Because he makes a living by not drawing what he can draw, and the Jackson Estate signs his checks.

    Bull shit. Ofcourse if you have the money and shit like this comes up you'd rather settle it quickly and quietly. For this exact fucking reason. because it doesn't matter if you are innocent or not just the accusation alone will fuck up your life. Because it doesn't matter what anyone says people will doubt it and if enough people do, or the wrong ones do, there goes your fucking career.someone accuses you of being a pedo, you're a pedo, doesn't matter if its true or not. Especially if you are a celebrity. And even more so if you do anything to help children like he did with his charity work.And by your logic, if you really WERE touched or whatever, wouldn't you want that person brought to justice? Fuck the money. They violated you and they need to get what they deserve. Would you really just roll over if a wad of cash is waved in your face if that person REALLY did that to you?

Jackson is overjoyed that his music is such a bit hit on the other side and says "Wow thank you so much to me." Pete then asks "Could you please sign my copy of Thriller, it'd mean so much to me and the guys." "But of course, er... who are the guys?" Jacko asks. "Why God, Jesus and the Holy Ghost Slimer". "Oh this is wonderful" he says, signing the CD. "so this is Heaven? then" "Of course it is." says Pete. "Look over there, we have an entire section just for little children. And we all know how much you like them?" "What you have children?" "Yep, and they love to play." "Oh but that's wonderful, I'd better go an introduce myself." As Michael goes to pass through the gates, St Pete puts his foot out. "Er, where do you think your going?" "To see the children, to see the children!!!" Jacko excitedly shouts. "That might be a problem Jack". "Wha..." "Y'see this is Heaven..." Pete then pulls a lever and a hole appears in the clouds heading straight down to a firey red hole "...AND YOUR A FUCKING NONCE!" As Michael Jackson falls to hell he hears Pete laughing his ass off "Now who's Bad?"

When the entire world grew to hate us, and laughed at us because our President constantly said and did childish, embarrassing things, and we invaded a country that had nothing to do with an attack on us simply because we had good momentum going from partially attacking the country that actually attacked us, and our national debt raised up to 11 trillion, and our economy tanked. Those were the glory days for you? C'mon man, be honest, at least to yourself.

There's no way I lose. I will get everything I want and they will be destroyed forever...Michael's career will be over" I mean, if it was me i'd say things like, "That bastard will pay for what he did to my son".

    by geomancer21

    Where a celebrity was accused of a crime, is acquitted, then the family, still believeing he's guilty, goes after the money cuz they want him to pay one way or another. No. They went after the money FIRST in that case. I'm sorry but if my child really WAS diddled by someone the first words out of my mouth aren't going to be "Cha Ching".

    by david_carradines_death_spunk

    you would pay them off rather than defend yourself? rather than protect your reputation, career and family? you would just write a check and be ok with that? why didn't he write a check last time if it was bogus like the first case? why did he let himself be subjected to years of ridicule and jokes rather than clear his name? if nothing happened, why the nondisclosure? bad legal advice doesn't cut it, he could afford 10 johnny cochran's for the first case.

    My thoughts on Michael

    by aphex twin

    There are so many people here in the talkbacks and in the world in general who feel compelled to chastise Michael for his alleged pedophile acts. Michael carries an awful stigma that all but forced him to go into hiding, only fueling the fires of degrading press and negative public opinion. While we can use the OJ train of thought: Looks like shit, smells like shit, MUST be shit. The truth of the matter is there was no real damning evidence that Michael did what we all branded him guilty for. This man should, no he DESERVES to be remembered for his contributions to music and his various donations to this planet. It's sad that he had to die for the press to finally give him a break and actually honor his contributions to all of us. The man was judged heavily in life, let him have a peaceful death. RIP Michael...

    MJ was the Balls

    by p2rock

    Al sharpton said it best, in that he paved the way for Jordan, Tiger, Oprah And Obama. It was said that James Brown made black people feel good about being black. Micheal Jackson made the world good about black people. His effect in exporting american culture and values (which for the most part were good) cannot be underestimated. In the 80's he made america cool and the world aspire to american dream. He was undeniably screwed up a bit and taken advantage of and ridiculously naive in his dealings with children which landed him in his legal trouble. But he was a gift to the world. I guarantee you the entire world, not just the music industry, would be a worse place without his contributions. He is a great loss and we hope he finds the peace which seemed to have illuded him for much of his life.

    RIP MJ

  • I'm not trying to plug the extremely dull HitFix site, but Moriarty recounts on there, MJ visiting (and then getting banned from) the LA laserdisc store he worked at in the early 90s.

    Some personal thoughts on Michael Jackson's passing.
    Posted by Drew McWeeny.

    This is how I like to think of Michael Jackson. Come on... that 'fro is awesome'. You know that Talladega Nights scene where Ricky Bobby (Will Ferrell) is praying to Jesus? And he keeps referring to him as Baby Jesus and asking him to use his Baby Jesus powers.
    Ricky: Dear tiny infant Jesus...
    Carley: Um hey you know, sweetie... Jesus did grow up. You don't always have to call him baby. It's a bit odd and
    off-puttin' to pray to a baby.
    Ricky: Look, I like the Christmas Jesus best and I'm sayin' grace. When you say grace, you can say it to Grownup Jesus or Teenage Jesus or Bearded Jesus or whoever you want'.

    Well, Michael Jackson is the same way. He's one of those guys who exists as all these separate and distinct versions of Michael Jackson and for me, the one I like remembering is either Off The Wall Michael Jackson, when he was sort of rocking the whole disco thing and just plain cool, or my favorite, Little Michael Jackson and the Jackson 5, when the sound of him singing was pretty much the happiest thing I've ever heard.
    ABC or I Want You Back? Those are bottled happiness in music form and no matter how depressing and weird the end of Michael Jackson's life has been, you can't get deny that one of the most influential and omnipresent pop performers of the 20th century passed away today at the age of 50 in Los Angeles.
    Working in Los Angeles for the last 19 years, I've had a variety of different jobs. One I enjoyed the most, was at a place called Dave's Video in Sherman Oaks, a laserdisc only store and I started there in 1991, when laserdisc was a niche market, mainly for wealthy film nerds and industry folks. I met a lot of people in the business when working at that store, but one in particular stood out. Michael Jackson would call us before we closed and tell us he was coming in just after closing. We would wait for a few minutes after we locked up and sure enough, Michael would pull up in his van and come in. We'd relock the doors and then just let him shop for as long as he wanted. He would typically take an hour or two and browse the racks, buying $1000 or more worth of discs each time.

    The first time he came in, it struck me as surreal for it to just be the four employees who were closing and Michael. He was soft spoken, as you'd imagine and seemed to be buying movies at random, just pulling anything that caught his interest. He came in a lot, though, so we got used to it. My fave evening he visited, he called like normal and said he'd be in after close. Our manager at the time was in no mood for it, but Michael spent enough money that we had standing orders to let him in when he came by. This was the week Home Alone had just been released on laserdisc and so we'd been playing the movie on an endless loop at the store, over and over and over and we were all sick of it at that point. That's important because when Michael showed up, he had a guest with him. Macaulay Culkin. My manager had his back to the door, standing at the front counter, when I opened up and let Michael and Macaulay into the store. He was on the phone with a friend, talking about the past week at work and as Michael went to look around and shop, Macaulay stopped, listening to Anthony as he ranted.

    '... and if I have to watch that movie again, I'm going to stab my own eyes out. Seriously. That kid... it's like he's haunting me. I go home, and all I can hear when I'm trying to go to sleep is him taunting Pesci and Stern and I wish there was a cut of the film where they caught him. That's what I'd watch'.

    By that point, it was obvious what he was talking about, so Macaulay settled in to wait for Anthony to turn around. Michael noticed what was going on. We all did, actually, except for Anthony, who just kept going, picking up steam as he talked.
    'I just hate him. I know he's a kid, but jesus... that face he makes on the cover of the movie... that's not funny. It just makes me furious. It's such a stupid movie and everyone comes in here wanting to buy a copy and I have to pretend I like it so we can move the 10000 copies of the damn thing that Dave bought. Miserable'.

    Finally, Anthony turned around and there was Macaulay, right behind him, hands on his face just like on the Home Alone cover, and as all of us, Michael included, burst into laughter, Anthony turned about 47 shades of crimson and ran for the back office, where he stayed locked in until well after Michael and Macaulay finished their shopping and left. That moment, watching Michael trying not to laugh as we all waited for Anthony to figure out what was going on, was the least guarded thing I saw from him. It's always the little strange details about someone that super-famous that stick out, like when I helped him carry all the discs out to his mini-van after each shopping trip and I'd see that the mini-van was essentially buried in McDonald's cheeseburger and Big Mac wrappers. Seriously. Like he lived off of them. Or when he'd come in wearing a surgical mask and we could see fresh work underneath as he'd talk to us. It made Michael seem real, and not just like some character on TVand more than anything, he seemed to me to be a guy who was acutely uncomfortable with basic social contact, unsure of how to engage with people, always wary of what they might expect in return.

    Michael eventually stopped coming into the store after an incident where he rented our 'Song Of The South' Japanese import laserdisc for, asking first if he could buy it from us. Dave had a firm policy of not selling rentals though, particularly if they were hard to come by and he told Michael no. Oddly Michael 'lost' the rental and told us a few weeks later he'd be happy to just pay for it instead. Dave flipped out and banned Michael from ever renting from us again and he blasted Michael's business manager on the phone one afternoon, furious and accusatory. That was it. I never saw Michael come into the store again.

    I asked Mick Garris, my producer on Masters Of Horror, for his memories of Michael this afternoon. I met Mick when I was at Dave's as well and during that period, Mick worked with Michael on Ghosts, the short film that actually started life as another short film called Is It Scary ?. His relationship with Michael went further back, though, since he also appeared in Thriller as a zombie dancer, which is where Mick met his beautiful wife Cynthia, who was also a zombie dancer in Thriller. Here's what Mick sent me just a little while ago:
    'Michael was a sweet and generous and amazingly talented man. The time I spent with him was filled with magic and joy and creativity, and I can't believe he's gone. Though I haven't seen much of him recently, I will really miss him. Mick'.

    It's not going to seem real, I don't think, because for so much of the last decade, Michael hasn't seemed real. He's withdrawn further and further in the face of scandal and I'm not convinced those London concerts were ever going to really happen. I just don't think he had it in him still to pull off that much live performance. It's demanding under the best of circumstances, even if you're in top shape, but Michael's been disconnected from his work for so long that I can't imagine he was up to the challenge.

    More than anything, that's the real tragedy of Michael's work and life... at some point, it just seemed to become too much work to actually be Michael Jackson anymore. When you consider how much energy he put into the work in the Off The Wall / Thriller / Bad era, it seems unthinkable that he would have slowed down and then vanished from the public eye like he did. I think his legacy is definitely tainted forever by the accusations against him of sexual abuse and frankly as a parent, I'm baffled by anyone who'd allow their children to spend time with him, even before the accusations went public. Even if he didn't sexually molest anyone, I think he was deeply damaged by the pressures put on him in childhood by his father and his family. He may have had an enormous, amazing gift as a performer, but traded fame for childhood and I'm pretty sure he got screwed by the deal. I'm sure we're going to be hearing more reactions to this over the next few days and weeks, and that this is going to be one of the larger stories in pop culture for the year.

    But for me, I'll always remember the quiet, soft-spoken movie fan who used to ask for recommendations while he browsed the aisles, doing his best to ignore any fans at the window of the store, always interested in any cartoon collections or any golden-era musicals. No matter what I think of any other aspect of his life, in those long strange nights, he was just another geek, and that's the image of him I'll hold onto.

    He DID make people feel good about black people he was the first black person that everyone wanted to be regardless of race. Everyone wanted to be Michael. He paved the way for Jordan, Woods and Oprah. Black people that white people identified with and saw past race. What happened later in life doesn't negate that he was a pioneer. OJ Simpson doesn't lose a single NFL or college rushing yard on record because he murdered his wife. What MJ accomplished during his time was huge for black people.

    MY MICHAEL JACKSON RECORD COLLECTION

    by uberman

    Still stands at 'Zero.' Used to watch the cartoon in the 70's and remember being amazed by Michael on TV when he was young. The later Michael Jackson got so huge he just imploded and his fragmented pysch flew off into a million directions. Once your that big, it must be hard to size your ego down. He made some great music-It just was never my musical landscape, hence I never bought any. One memory i had was the THRILLER video-good god I hated that damn thing. Not cause it was bad, cause it was great. i hated it because MTV played it 24/7 for what...6 months or something. Bye Michael. I hope the next time around you get to have a real childhood.

    about "thousands of other people died today"

    by theyreflockingthisway

    You always get this when a celebrity dies and people pay their respects to them.

    Fact is, and as harsh as it sounds, I don't care about those other people. Of course people die every day but if I don't know them then they may as well just not exist for me. I'm not heartless - I will hope no soldiers get killed, no natural disasters occur and never want to hear about people getting hurt on the news - but those are just names to me as I never knew who they were.

    Michael Jackson, on the other hand, has been a part of my life even though I've never met him. I've grown up listening to his music, bought his albums and been made aware of his life in the media. So, to me, his death is much more shocking than someone I never met or even heard of.

    It's just annoying how there's always someone on the internet, a so-called do gooder, who has to point out "bigger" problems in the world. Yeah so what? Maybe we don't care, maybe we all did post on a forum for John Smith from Sydney who died in a boating accident. Whatever - it's just none of your business why we mourning one person and not someone else.

Jacksons death would have been very sudden and very shocking. and we all would have been none the wiser. As i have said before Jacksons tragedy was that he never got the hlp he needed.

    Yesterday at work...

    by verbage

    ...one of my coworkers was really broken up about MJ's death, so after everyone had left and just a few of us remained, she began playing MJ's best videos on YouTube, and I hadn't heard most of them for many years, and now it's finally sinking in that he's dead. MJ is a legend, and even more so with his death. That legend will include all the bizarre things about him, like being a boy-man trapped in his own castle, and all the strange stories and myths about him. I just read Vern's eulogy, and one quote stuck out: "In a way, and not by choice, Michael sacrificed his own life and well-being for our entertainment." It's very true, and that's how MJ was treated. When he was at the top of his game in the 80's, people reveled in him and his music, but when his albums and videos started to decline, people reveled in tearing him down, and joyously making jokes or discussing gossip like pigs rolling around in shit. You're all going to miss him, even those of you in this talkback who have been pissing on his grave, you're going to miss him dearly, too, because it's one less person to hate on, and one less person to help you feel self-righteous. Gather up your burnt out torches.

    JACKO DIED FOR OUR SINS

    According to CNN, MJ's body has been moved to a mortuary

    by soylentmean

    In other news rain is water that falls from the sky.

    So, instead of actually providing the nation with news of noteworthy events around the world CNN is tracking the location of a corpse. Are we going to eventually get a 24 hour newsfeed of Michael Jackson's gravesite, just to constantly confirm that he's, you know, still in there?

    People complain about the tactlessness of these talkbacks, talkbacks populated by people that have already established themselves as being perfectly happy with hiding under the seeming anonymity of the internet to spread jawdroppingly foul opinions and thoughts.

    I'm ok with that. What I'm not ok with is the mainstream media promoting the notion that the masses should be wringing their hands and shedding tears for one person, who happened to be famous, while literally thousands upon thousands of people die everyday.

    People that never had their faces on billions of television screens. People that never had hit records or millions of dollars.

    While the world mourns the "loss" of Michael Jackson children are starving to death. As Americans can you even grasp the concept of starvation? If you have children can you look at them and imagine them never, ever, eating again?

    This worldwide sadness for a dancing singer who lost his mind is the real tragedy out of all of this.

    People don't know how to think for themselves. So go ahead, be sad for Michael Jackson. Shed those tears.

    Then ponder the notion of children dying because they don't have any food.

    If you can't figure out which of those two is sadder, than there's no hope for any of you.

    I sincerely appreciate your sentiment. Ordinarily it would be ridiculous to lionize one person to such an extent, worldwide.

    But this being MJ, I think it's very different. *Billions* of people loved his music, his art. And he did as much as Bob Geldof to bring real tangible help to millions in Africa.

    So in a world that historically seeks to find meaning and comfort in heroes, MJ is the real deal.

    Now, I was not a fan of his personal antics. But after talking to my wife and some friends who think he was not as nefarious as we're led to believe, I'm going to give him the benefit of the doubt in death. Not to mention what Corey Feldman said here as well (and I found his blog and he sounds like the real Corey, take it for what it's worth).

    But looking back at his career, his accomplishments in entertaining billions, creating some enduring music that had unifying messages, and bringing real help to millions ... I think he's worthy of this unprecedented adoration.

    What, exactly, are you doing to help starving children? Whatever reason you give, how do you know we're not helping them - you don't know any of us. No you're just wasting your time criticising people you don't know for mourning the loss of a musician that made music they loved.

    I'm sorry that there are children starving everywhere but if wemourned each of those individually, no one would have time for their own life and then what's the point of living then anyway?

    People mourne who they miss - that's it. It can be a celebrity, a family member - anyone. But then you don't even have to mourne the passing of a family member either. It's whoever you miss - there's no rules to who that should be.

    "It's hilarious that anybody takes what is said here

    by cherryvalance

    seriously". That has always been the mantra of shitty people who go online to abuse people and generally act out their baggage that they're too frightened to confront in real life. Everyone in this talkback that's been idiotic really has something missing inside themselves. If you're whole thing is not being genuine, meaning you don't think anyone should take what you're saying seriously, what are you doing? Why take the time to type anything if you're just being an asshole for fun or whatever it is that you think you're doing.

    You know, it's been clear for a while, not a long while, probably within the last year that most of the people posting here are either children or just people looking for attention. Take any talkback for a movie and it's clear most of the people haven't seen the movie, probably haven't seen any movies, and are just there to say something stupid to get attention. I've been trying to understand why people who pretty much hate film would want to hang around a movie website. And don't think that I'm saying there were never trolls here or people acting out for a attention. Of course there were, but this is different. Just childish behavior with no purpose. It's no longer a community where like-minded people can talk about the films they like it's just a place for this garbage. People saying shit that they don't think anyone should take seriously. It's really sad. I used to enjoy coming here to find out about movies and get the opinions of people I respected before seeing something but now it's just this. I can't imagine what anyone in the business now thinks of this site when they try to read through a talkback to get a feel for how their movie is doing with the public. Because this clearly is not the public. It's akin to group of little kids who got to the computer when mommy wasn't looking so they could type in "doody". No other site that I've ever been to is like this and I'm shocked at how quickly this has happened here. It's a shame.

    Cherryvalance, you need to open your eyes.

    by hint_of_smegma

    If you think these talkbacks aren't written by the 'public', you need to get out more, seriously. People are complicated and no-one is just able to be pigeonholed as any one thing - as Michael Jackson, his achievements and his scandals show. There are indeed juveniles posting here, enjoying tearing things down simply because they've never achieved anything themselves, but there are all sorts of other people posting here too - and the fact they write something you don't like or that's offensive to you doesn't change that or make them somehow less of a person. Several movie stars post here anonymously, beyond that you'll find people of every profession posting shit here. You trying to make out everyone here slinging shit against a suspected pedophile is a socially retarded teenager is as offensive as the material you're complaining about, and it speaks to your own mentality more than it illuminates the mentality of others. As to the arguments about Jackson here - you have to accept, he opened himself up to these debates through his own actions. It's a shame someone so incredibly talented was also so fucked up, and it's sad he died so young, but people are going to speculate over the nefarious side of his personality because it's human nature - he was famous, and he was accused of heinous crimes. His own comments, his own actions in paying off accusers instead of fighting for his name are going to tarnish his reputation forever. Get over it. There's two mindsets you can go for. You can hope it was all untrue despite all the circumstantial evidence, the payoffs, the comments he himself made and you can enjoy the music he gave the world. Or you can believe it was all untrue, think of him as a pedophile and still enjoy his music. At the end of the day, he was a great musician and entertainer. Nothing else he did or didn't do changes that, but if the comments on this talkback of the negative variety upset you so much, why are you here reading them? You don't have to, you know. And bitching about them won't make someone suddenly change their mind and come over to your way of thinking.

On one side you have the corey feldman... i'm so sad i can barely live group, who like most people don really feel anything, so they overcompensate because they think thats how they're supposed to act. Then on the other side the stunkcockmike group, who dont feel anything or care, but want to let everyone know that they don't feel anything or care. All you have to do is tailor the jokes to the person, but it's all the same. We really just don't feel real emotion anymore and everyone acts it out differently. It's like those two groups sort of created each other by trying to outdo the other in how much they want others to know that they care or they don't care. It's fucking weird.

    by harold-sherbort

    I grew up with Michael Jacksons music, as I'm sure a lot of other people have. One of my first memories is being 4, and seeing the Thriller video for the first time. We all gathered around the T.V. and watched something revolutionary. I can remember being terrified, while I danced like an idiot around the family room. We were Jehovahs Witnesses, and it was well known that Michael was too. My folks never let me watch the video again, but it didn't matter. Those images will never leave my memory. And everyone on here making jokes, and giving his fans shit for paying their own tribute to the man, need to moonwalk into oncoming traffic. It's just as bad as the people who don't think they can go on with their lives. I understand the need to eulogize the man, but if you feel the need to kill yourself over this, you've got deeper issues than idol worship. You want to see something really sad, check out what's goin on in Iran right now. Have you seen the video of Neda? That's something that should really make your heart sink.

    forced fake spelling

    by continentalop

    I don't know if it is faked or not. petergrifin has consistently written like that ever since he first appeared on AICN about a month ago.
    If it is someone faking it, kudos to him for doing an act without winking at the audience. Wether it is fake or not makes no difference to me, either away I am entertained.
    Of course, I can easily believe that it is legitimate. I just got in a discussion with someone on another TB who insist that the US fought Great Britain in the Civil War. Yes, THE CIVIL WAR. So, I am not surprised by anyone on the internet anymore.

    by the_way

    seems the guy that was with him at the time of his death - the guy that was giving him daily injections of Demerol, despite the protests of people that were close to him - the guy that failed to resuscitate him when he went into cardiac arrest - the only other guy in the room at the time, apparently - the same guy who went missing immediately after the news broke out and has only just been found by the authorities and is "answering some questions" that might help the coroner, who has deferred the official cause-of-death following the autopsy "pending further tests"...
    yeah that guy - apparently he's not actually board certified in neither of his two specialties, internal medicine and cardiology, has lived in numerous homes over the last decade in several states, filed for personal bankruptcy in 1992 in California and has five tax liens against him for hundreds of thousands of dollars.
    With 50 sold-out arena shows planned and a massive debt to service - AND HIS PERSONAL HEALTH IN QUESTION - no doubt there was a massive insurance policy taken out against death or injury by "misadventure"
    in other words, you got a GAMBLE on the one hand that he's gonna get through 50 shows ok and make you some coin or you got a GUARANTEE of a return on your investment if he croaks...
    not to mention what his record sales are about to do...

    Jury aquits local man in child molestation case.

    by inactionman

    June 30, 2009. An area man accused of molesting several boys was found not guilty in a jury trial today.

    The man who acted as his own attorney used his closing argument to put on a two hour performance of singing, dancing and acrobatics. At the end of the performance the jury gave the man a standing ovation.

    Juror Jack Mayhoffer stated "Well the prosecution did have a videotape of the defendant fucking the boy in the ass and the defendant's DNA was found in the boy's rectum, but the defendant was just so darn talented we just couldn't vote to convict."

    The defendant thanked the jury and then headed to the airport to catch his flight to Cambodia.

    Wasn't Billy Mays on the Tonight Show this week

    by cherryvalance

    with the other guy who does the mops commercials and stuff? I'm not understanding these sudden famous deaths. Just over recent years, not just right now. I try to explain things to myself in rational ways but I dunno. People are fine one minute and dead the next with no warning from those around them? Before even heart attacks seemed to have some warning. Strange times.

    Smegma, the reason I didn't get into it with you is because I already said what I had to say. You started saying that I'm trying to get everyone around to my way of thinking and I've heard that around here before but I don't know why because I'm not. I state my opinion. When people address me about it, I try to further explain myself but I'm not a person who wants everyone to agree with me. I want to be able to express my opinion and allow everyone else to do the same. So when people say I'm trying to convince people of something, I figure I should just drop it because I don't know what I'm saying or how I'm wording things to make people think that.

    About celebrity deaths and why people mourn. For me, it's that I do feel a connection with most of the celebrities whose work I enjoy. If a person creates art they often say they put a piece of themselves into it. So therefore they are sharing a part of themselves with the world. If you watch Rocky and it inspires you, or the Force makes you believe, or a song gets you through a hard time, then the person who created that may have helped you or been there for you in your life in a way that maybe your family or best friends weren't. If that's sad or pathetic to some people then so be it. But the vast majority of people mourning Michael Jackson right now mean it. Maybe we're all crazy groupies. I know that I am. But I don't have a problem with it. If anyone else does, you don't have to like me or associate with me. I wave my freak flag proudly. But being that I did care about Michael Jackson before and after his death I felt the need to defend him. Pardon me.

    CHERRY, try reading the posts, not skimming them.

    by hint_of_smegma

    I never once said you were TRYING to change people's opinions, I merely stated your behaviour WOULDN'T change people's minds. There's a difference there. Beyond that, you're effectively saying you avoided debate due to misconstruing my comments - as opposed to your actual stated comment which was dismissing the core of the posts simply due to my username. Well, all the posts are still there to read, hard to go back on them now. As to mourning celebrities I think for the most part it's mourning a part of your own life rather than the celebrity themselves. We associate celebrities and celebrity events with parts of our own histories - those of us who remember waiting to see Thriller on TV the first time it aired for example, it was a real event and most of us inextricably link that night, those feelings, to a happier time in our younger lives. Same goes for Farrah Fawcett, Dom DeLuise and on and on. We didn't know the celebrities, we only knew of media snapshots which is certainly not the same thing so how can we genuinely mourn for them? The answer is that we don't, no matter how you may disagree - and if you look at your genuine motivations for being sad about his death, you'll see I'm right whether you admit it or not. We are actually mourning what their contributions meant to US. The daft thing about it is that those contributions aren't ever going away, so what are we actually 'mourning' for? Because we think we ought to? It's the same collective self-serving idiocy that surrounded Princess Diana's untimely death. Unless you knew the person, were a friend or a member of the family, you're not mourning the person and saying you are is somewhat distasteful - it demeans what their real loved ones are going through. You can objectively feel sympathy for someone dying, but it's not the same thing - we project our own motivations onto the event.

    The Tragedy of Billy Mays...

    by violentn8

    Is that he spent his whole life working. First just learning his trade then as he plied said trade as a young man, he lost his first marriage to his craft just trying to provide for his initial attempt at a family.

    I like that he had his son working with him and seemed to have a good relationship with his father. I hope that (being as successful as he was) he had more time to share with his new wife and adorable daughter. I hope he rests fulfilled with the life he lived and that his family keep his memory close.

    tldr; I hope Billy Mays lived a life he was happy with.

    RIP Billy Mays

It's a statement on your behaviour not helping the situation, as you're doing exactly the same as those trying to tear him down, but in reverse. Do I need to explain this point anymore for you, or would you like to reprint more comments that merely prove what I was saying in the first place? The fact you are trying to latch onto a comment you yourself are misrepresenting while ignoring the content of my comments speaks volumes about your own level of debate - as in when faced with someone capable of debating in a slightly more intelligent manner than the usual "fuck Jacko" brigade, you slope off. Shame, it would be nice to have some actual debate about the event rather than the level of comments currently dominating.

  • In 1993, Chandler told a psychiatrist and police that he and Jackson had engaged in sexual acts that included oral sex, the boy gave detailed description of Jackson’s genitals. The case was settled out of court for a reported $22 million, but the strain led Jackson to begin taking painkillers. Eventually he became addicted.

    Now maybe for the remorse of his death Chandler decides to tell us the truth. ” I never meant to lie and destroy Michael Jackson but my father made me to tell only lies. Now i can’t tell Michael how much i’m sorry and if he will forgive me ”.Evan Chandler was tape-recorded saying amongst other things, “If I go through with this, I win big-time. There’s no way I lose. I will get everything I want and they will be destroyed forever…

    Under the influence of a controversial father (Jordan Chandler) told his son to tell that Jackson had touched his penis.Jordan Chandler then told a psychiatrist and later police that he and Jackson had engaged in acts of kissing, masturbation and oral sex, as well as giving a detailed description of what he alleged were the singer’s genitals.
    ” Now for the first time i can’t bare to lie anymore. Michael Jackson didn’t do anything to me, all was my father lies to escape from being poor.”

    Source: http://trashselector.com/evan-chandl...ather-im-sorry -michael/

    That site is about as legit as this one.

    The truth is Chandler described the police Wacko-Jacko's whacked out wienie perfectly. Every weird splotch, even the location of said splotches during an erection, were described to a T. This is why MJ coughed up $22,000,000 in hush money so his weird ass wouldn't be spending the next 20 years teaching convicts the moonwalk. Links to bullshit sites with articles written by writers with no names will change that fact. Michael Jackson was sexually attracted to little boys. Deal.

And any SANE adult..especially one with so much to loose...would stay Faaaaaar away from that potential trouble.

    I totally agree with you about how art creates an emotional connection so you feel a bond with their art, and that artist, even though you may not know them. Personally, I think the notion of having obituaries on this site is silly to begin with because this is not the type of place to pay respect to someone, and it's not like they are there in the afterlife reading AICN talkbacks, but I figure if they are going to post obituaries, it might as well be someone whose art you felt connected with at one point or another. Because usually it's someone who never really moved you, or even someone you never heard of. It'll be like "Johnny Bupkis passed away", and people will go to IMDB to look him up, and then they'll come back here and be like, "RIP Johnny Bupkis, I loved your Dolly Grip work on Deer Hunter", or "The theme song to Night Court is great, and now you will play it in heaven for the angels". That's why these guys demanding TB's for Billy Mays or Ed McMahon are out of their minds because who the hell has been moved by an infomercial, or by Ed McMahon sitting on the end of Carson's couch and laughing??? Top notch work, there. I don't think I've ever really gotten sad at a celebrity death, but I get surprised and taken aback, and it also makes you take stock in your own mortality when people whose art connected with you at one point in your life are no longer breathing. But simply posting an obit for anyone who worked in the industry or achieved fame gets pretty ridiculous.

    God bless him to I hope he can survive his battle.

    And as for the 22 million payoff! Think about it everyone, and their mother thought he did it just cus he's a weirdo!

    Now even if innocent he would have been found guilty the media had turned on him big time.

    The poor man loved kids in an innocent way because he was still a child both at heart, and of mind in many ways, and he took that whole now known to be false claim to heart, and turned to pain killers, and hard drugs as a way to mask his pain.

    The poor man looked drugged out of his mind in almost every interview he did the last decade.

    I really feel bad for the man he did nothing but spread love to the world, and helped so many, and all he got in the end was nothing but nasty people making shit up to ruin his life.

    He did not deserve the fate he got... He was a brilliant human being who should have been loved until his death by all because he was a loving person who was murdered by the same ass clowns who accused him, and those who poked fun at him because he was different.

    That's what some assholes do they like to make fun of what is not "normal" to them... Shame on all of you, and It's sad you all have to live your lives like you do...

    A Gift like Michael Jackson comes along once a century if your lucky, and now he's gone so fast... I will always miss his music, his inspiration his kindness, and his love of people.

    'I'm better off dead. I'm done': Michael Jackson's fateful prediction just a week before his death
    By Ian Halperin
    Last updated at 9:13 AM on 28th June 2009
    Comments (37) Add to My Stories

    Genetic condition had ruined his lungs and left him unable to sing
    He became so skeletal, doctors believed he was anorexic
    He had nightmares about being murdered – and wanted to die
    He used swine flu as an excuse to avoid coming to England
    He thought he was agreeing to 10 concerts – it was 50
    Whatever the final autopsy results reveal, it was greed that killed Michael Jackson. Had he not been driven – by a cabal of bankers, agents, doctors and advisers – to commit to the gruelling 50 concerts in London’s O2 Arena, I believe he would still be alive today.
    During the last weeks and months of his life, Jackson made desperate attempts to prepare for the concert series scheduled for next month – a series that would have earned millions for the singer and his entourage, but which he could never have completed, not mentally, and not physically.


    Michael knew it and his advisers knew it. Anyone who caught even a fleeting glimpse of the frail old man hiding beneath the costumes and cosmetics would have understood that the London tour was madness. For Michael Jackson, it was fatal.
    I had more than a glimpse of the real Michael; as an award-winning freelance journalist and film-maker, I spent more than five years inside his ‘camp’.
    Many in his entourage spoke frankly to me – and that made it possible for me to write authoritatively last December that Michael had six months to live, a claim that, at the time, his official spokesman, Dr Tohme Tohme, called a ‘complete fabrication’. The singer, he told the world, was in ‘fine health’. Six months and one day later, Jackson was dead.
    Some liked to snigger at his public image, and it is true that flamboyant clothes and bizarre make-up made for a comic grotesque; yet without them, his appearance was distressing; with skin blemishes, thinning hair and discoloured fingernails.
    I had established beyond doubt, for example, that Jackson relied on an extensive collection of wigs to hide his greying hair. Shorn of their luxuriance, the Peter Pan of Neverland cut a skeletal figure.



    It was clear that he was in no condition to do a single concert, let alone 50. He could no longer sing, for a start. On some days he could barely talk. He could no longer dance. Disaster was looming in London and, in the opinion of his closest confidantes, he was feeling suicidal.
    To understand why a singer of Jackson’s fragility would even think about travelling to London, we need to go back to June 13, 2005, when my involvement in his story began.
    As a breaking news alert flashed on CNN announcing that the jury had reached a verdict in Jackson’s trial for allegedly molesting 13-year-old Gavin Arvizo at his Neverland Ranch in California, I knew that history had been made but that Michael Jackson had been broken – irrevocably so, as it proved.
    Nor was it the first time that Michael had been accused of impropriety with young boys. Little more than a decade earlier, another 13-year-old, Jordan Chandler, made similar accusations in a case that was eventually settled before trial – but not before the damage had been done to Jackson’s reputation.


    Michael had not helped his case. Appearing in a documentary with British broadcaster Martin Bashir, he not only admitted that he liked to share a bed with teenagers, mainly boys, in pyjamas, but showed no sign of understanding why anyone might be legitimately concerned.
    I had started my investigation convinced that Jackson was guilty. By the end, I no longer believed that.
    I could not find a single shred of evidence suggesting that Jackson had molested a child. But I found significant evidence demonstrating that most, if not all, of his accusers lacked credibility and were motivated primarily by money.
    Jackson also deserved much of the blame, of course. Continuing to share a bed with children even after the suspicions surfaced bordered on criminal stupidity.
    He was also playing a truly dangerous game. It is clear to me that Michael was homosexual and that his taste was for young men, albeit not as young as Jordan Chandler or Gavin Arvizo.
    In the course of my investigations, I spoke to two of his gay lovers, one a Hollywood waiter, the other an aspiring actor. The waiter had remained friends, perhaps more, with the singer until his death last week. He had served Jackson at a restaurant, Jackson made his interest plain and the two slept together the following night. According to the waiter, Jackson fell in love.
    The actor, who has been given solid but uninspiring film parts, saw Jackson in the middle of 2007. He told me they had spent nearly every night together during their affair – an easy claim to make, you might think. But this lover produced corroboration in the form of photographs of the two of them together, and a witness.
    Other witnesses speak of strings of young men visiting his house at all hours, even in the period of his decline. Some stayed overnight.
    When Jackson lived in Las Vegas, one of his closest aides told how he would sneak off to a ‘grungy, rat-infested’ motel – often dressed as a woman to disguise his identity – to meet a male construction worker he had fallen in love with.
    Jackson was acquitted in the Arvizo case, dramatically so, but the effect on his mental state was ruinous. Sources close to him suggest he was close to complete nervous breakdown.

    The ordeal had left him physically shattered, too. One of my sources suggested that he might already have had a genetic condition I had never previously come across, called Alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency – the lack of a protein that can help protect the lungs.
    Although up to 100,000 Americans are severely affected by it, it is an under-recognised condition. Michael was receiving regular injections of Alpha-1 antitrypsin derived from human plasma. The treatment is said to be remarkably effective and can enable the sufferer to lead a normal life.
    But the disease can cause respiratory problems and, in severe cases, emphysema. Could this be why Jackson had for years been wearing a surgical mask in public, to protect his lungs from the ravages of the disease? Or why, from time to time, he resorted to a wheelchair? When I returned to my source inside the Jackson camp for confirmation, he said: ‘Yeah, that’s what he’s got. He’s in bad shape. They’re worried that he might need a lung transplant but he may be too weak.
    ‘Some days he can hardly see and he’s having a lot of trouble walking.’
    Even Michael Jackson’s legendary wealth was in sharp decline. Just a few days before he announced his 50-concert comeback at the O2 Arena, one of my sources told me Jackson had been offered £1.8million to perform at a party for a Russian billionaire on the Black Sea.
    ‘Is he up to it?’ I had asked.
    ‘He has no choice. He needs the money. His people are pushing him hard,’ said the source.
    Could he even stand on a stage for an hour concert?
    ‘He can stand. The treatments have been successful. He can even dance once he gets in better shape. He just can’t sing,’ said the aide, adding that Jackson would have to lip-synch to get through the performance. ‘Nobody will care, as long as he shows up and moonwalks.’
    He also revealed Jackson had been offered well over £60million to play Las Vegas for six months. ‘He said no, but his people are trying to force it on him. He’s that close to losing everything,’ said the source.

    Indeed, by all accounts Jackson’s finances were in a shambles. The Arvizo trial itself was a relative bargain, costing a little more than £18million in legal bills.
    But the damage to his career, already in trouble before the charges, was incalculable. After the Arvizo trial, a Bahraini sheikh allowed Jackson to stay in his palace, underwriting his lavish lifestyle. But a few years later, the prince sued his former guest, demanding repayment for his hospitality. Jackson claimed he thought it had been a gift.
    Roger Friedman, a TV journalist, said: ‘For one year, the prince underwrote Jackson’s life in Bahrain – everything including accommodation, guests, security and transportation. And what did Jackson do? He left for Japan and then Ireland. He took the money and moonwalked right out the door. This is the real Michael Jackson. He has never returned a phone call from the prince since he left Bahrain.’
    Although Jackson settled with the sheikh on the eve of the trial that would have aired his financial dirty laundry, the settlement only put him that much deeper into the hole. A hole that kept getting bigger, but that was guaranteed by Jackson’s half ownership of the copyrights to The Beatles catalogue. He owned them in a joint venture with record company Sony, which have kept him from bankruptcy.
    ‘Jackson is in hock to Sony for hundreds of millions,’ a source told me a couple of months ago. ‘No bank will give him any money so Sony have been paying his bills.
    ‘The trouble is that he hasn’t been meeting his obligations. Sony have been in a position for more than a year where it can repossess Michael’s share of the [Beatles] catalogue. That’s always been Sony’s dream scenario, full ownership.
    ‘But they don’t want to do it as they’re afraid of a backlash from his fans. Their nightmare is an organised 'boycott Sony' movement worldwide, which could prove hugely costly. It is the only thing standing between Michael and bankruptcy.’

    The source aid at the time that the scheduled London concerts wouldn’t clear Jackson’s debts – estimated at almost £242million – but they would allow him to get them under control and get him out of default with Sony.
    According to two sources in Jackson’s camp, the singer put in place a contingency plan to ensure his children would be well taken care of in the event of bankruptcy.
    ‘He has as many as 200 unpublished songs that he is planning to leave behind for his children when he dies. They can’t be touched by the creditors, but they could be worth as much as £60million that will ensure his kids a comfortable existence no matter what happens,’ one of his collaborators revealed.
    But for the circle of handlers who surrounded Jackson during his final years, their golden goose could not be allowed to run dry. Bankruptcy was not an option.
    These, after all, were not the handlers who had seen him through the aftermath of the Arvizo trial and who had been protecting his fragile emotional health to the best of their ability. They were gone, and a new set of advisers was in place.
    The clearout had apparently been engineered by his children’s nanny, Grace Rwaramba, who was gaining considerable influence over Jackson and his affairs and has been described as the ‘queen bee’ by those around Jackson.
    Rwaramba had ties to the black militant organisation, the Nation of Islam, and its controversial leader, Louis Farrakhan, whom she enlisted for help in running Jackson’s affairs.
    Before long, the Nation was supplying Jackson’s security detail and Farrakhan’s son-in-law, Leonard Muhammad, was appointed as Jackson’s business manager, though his role has lessened significantly in recent years.
    In late 2008, a shadowy figure who called himself Dr Tohme Tohme suddenly emerged as Jackson’s ‘official spokesman’.
    Tohme has been alternately described as a Saudi Arabian billionaire and an orthopaedic surgeon, but he is actually a Lebanese businessman who does not have a medical licence. At one point, Tohme claimed he was an ambassador at large for Senegal, but the Senegalese embassy said they had never heard of him.

    Tohme’s own ties to the Nation of Islam came to light in March 2009, when New York auctioneer Darren Julien was conducting an auction of Michael Jackson memorabilia.
    Julien filed an affidavit in Los Angeles Superior Court that month in which he described a meeting he had with Tohme’s business partner, James R. Weller. According to Julien’s account, ‘Weller said if we refused to postpone [the auction], we would be in danger from 'Farrakhan and the Nation of Islam; those people are very protective of Michael'.
    He told us that Dr Tohme and Michael Jackson wanted to give the message to us that 'our lives are at stake and there will be bloodshed'.’
    A month after these alleged threats, Tohme accompanied Jackson to a meeting at a Las Vegas hotel with Randy Phillips, chief executive of the AEG Group, to finalise plans for Jackson’s return to the concert stage.
    Jackson’s handlers had twice before said no to Phillips. This time, with Tohme acting as his confidant, Jackson left the room agreeing to perform ten concerts at the O2.
    Before long, however, ten concerts had turned into 50 and the potential revenues had skyrocketed. ‘The vultures who were pulling his strings somehow managed to put this concert extravaganza together behind his back, then presented it to him as a fait accompli,’ said one aide.
    ‘The money was just unbelievable and all his financial people were telling him he was facing bankruptcy. But Michael still resisted. He didn’t think he could pull it off.’
    Eventually, they wore him down, the aide explained, but not with the money argument.
    ‘They told him that this would be the greatest comeback the world had ever known. That’s what convinced him. He thought if he could emerge triumphantly from the success of these concerts, he could be the King again.’
    The financial details of the O2 concerts are still murky, though various sources have revealed that Jackson was paid as much as £10million in advance, most of which went to the middlemen. But Jackson could have received as much as £100million had the concerts gone ahead.
    It is worth noting that the O2 Arena has the most sophisticated lip synching technology in the world – a particular attraction for a singer who can no longer sing. Had, by some miracle, the concerts gone ahead, Jackson’s personal contribution could have been limited to just 13 minutes for each performance. The rest was to have been choreography and lights.
    ‘We knew it was a disaster waiting to happen,’ said one aide. ‘I don’t think anybody predicted it would actually kill him but nobody believed he would end up performing.’
    Their doubts were underscored when Jackson collapsed during only his second rehearsal.

    ‘Collapse might be overstating it,’ said the aide. ‘He needed medical attention and couldn’t go on. I’m not sure what caused it.’
    Meanwhile, everybody around him noticed that Jackson had lost an astonishing amount of weight in recent months. His medical team even believed he was anorexic.
    ‘He goes days at a time hardly eating a thing and at one point his doctor was asking people if he had been throwing up after meals,’ one staff member told me in May.
    ‘He suspected bulimia but when we said he hardly eats any meals, the doc thought it was probably anorexia. He seemed alarmed and at one point said, 'People die from that all the time. You’ve got to get him to eat.'’
    Indeed, one known consequence of anorexia is cardiac arrest.
    After spotting him leave one rehearsal, Fox News reported that ‘Michael Jackson’s skeletal physique is so bad that he might not be able to moonwalk any more’.
    On May 20 this year, AEG suddenly announced that the first London shows had been delayed for five days while the remainder had been pushed back until March 2010. At the time, they denied that the postponements were health-related, explaining that they needed more time to mount the technically complex production, though scepticism immediately erupted. It was well placed.
    Behind the scenes, Jackson was in rapid decline. According to a member of his staff, he was ‘terrified’ at the prospect of the London concerts.
    ‘He wasn’t eating, he wasn’t sleeping and, when he did sleep, he had nightmares that he was going to be murdered. He was deeply worried that he was going to disappoint his fans. He even said something that made me briefly think he was suicidal. He said he thought he’d die before doing the London concerts.
    ‘He said he was worried that he was going to end up like Elvis. He was always comparing himself to Elvis, but there was something in his tone that made me think that he wanted to die, he was tired of life. He gave up. His voice and dance moves weren’t there any more. I think maybe he wanted to die rather than embarrass himself on stage.’
    The most obvious comparison between the King of Pop and the King of Rock ’n’ Roll was their prescription drug habits, which in Jackson’s case had significantly intensified in his final months.
    ‘He is surrounded by enablers,’ said one aide. ‘We should be stopping him before he kills himself, but we just sit by and watch him medicate himself into oblivion.’
    Jackson could count on an array of doctors to write him prescriptions without asking too many questions if he complained of ‘pain’. He was particularly fond of OxyContin, nicknamed ‘Hillbilly heroin’, which gave an instant high, although he did not take it on a daily basis.
    According to the aide, painkillers are not the only drugs Jackson took.


    ‘He pops Demerol and morphine, sure, apparently going back to the time in 1984 when he burned himself during the Pepsi commercial, but there’s also some kind of psychiatric medication. One of his brothers once told me he was diagnosed with schizophrenia when he was younger, so it may be to treat that.’
    His aides weren’t the only ones who recognised that a 50-concert run was foolhardy. In May, Jackson himself reportedly addressed fans as he left his Burbank rehearsal studio.
    ‘Thank you for your love and support,’ he told them. ‘I want you guys to know I love you very much.
    'I don’t know how I’m going to do 50 shows. I’m not a big eater. I need to put some weight on. I’m really angry with them booking me up to do 50 shows. I only wanted to do ten.’
    One of his former employees was particularly struck by Jackson’s wording that day. ‘The way he was talking, it’s like he’s not in control over his own life any more,’ she told me earlier this month. ‘It sounds like somebody else is pulling his strings and telling him what to do. Someone wants him dead.
    'They keep feeding him pills like candy. They are trying to push him over the edge. He needs serious help. The people around him will kill him.’
    As the London concerts approached, something was clearly wrong. Jackson had vowed to travel to England at least eight weeks before his first shows, but he kept putting it off.
    ‘To be honest, I never thought Michael would set foot on a concert stage ever again,’ said one aide, choking back tears on the evening of his death.
    ‘This was not only predictable, this was inevitable.’
    On June 21, Jackson told my contact that he wanted to die. He said that he didn’t have what it would take to perform any more because he had lost his voice and dance moves.
    ‘It’s not working out,’ Jackson said. ‘I’m better off dead. I don’t have anywhere left to turn. I’m done.’
    Michael’s closest confidante told me just two hours after he died that ‘Michael was tired of living. He was a complete wreck for years and now he can finally be in a better place. People around him fed him drugs to keep him on their side. They should be held accountable.’
    Michael Jackson was undoubtedly a deeply troubled and lonely man. Throughout my investigation, I was torn between compassion and anger, sorrow and empathy.
    Even his legacy is problematic. As I have already revealed, he has bequeathed up to 200 original songs to his three children, Prince Michael, aged 12, Paris Katherine, 11, and Prince Michael II (also known as Blanket), seven. It is a wonderful gift.
    Yet I can reveal that his will, not as yet made public, demands that the three of them remain with Jackson’s 79-year-old mother Katherine in California. It promises an ugly row.
    Ex-wife Deborah Rowe, the mother of the eldest two, has already made it clear to her legal team that she wants her children in her custody, immediately.
    The mother of the third child has never been identified. I fully expect that it will emerge that the children had a ‘test tube’ conception, a claim already made by Deborah Rowe.
    Michael Jackson may very well have been the most talented performer of his generation, but for 15 years that fact has been lost to a generation who may remember him only as a grotesque caricature who liked to share his bed with little boys. Now that he’s gone, maybe it’s time to shelve the suspicions and appreciate the music.

    Joe Jackson being interviewed

    by theoracle

    at the BET awards was hilariously sad. He was all business. Showing absolutely no grief, only referring to Michael as the greatest superstar who ever lived, but never as his son. He had his PR rep read a statement from the family then brought out his lawyer. Then, after that, he had the audacity to plug his new record company without being prompted. Why was he invited? Was he integral to Michael's stardom? Yes, but he's pretty much the reason why Michael is dead. Why does the African American community and leaders give this guy a free pass, just like they did with Michael Vick, R Kelly, OJ Simpson? Unbelievable......

I used to love the Fried Peanut Butter and Banana Sandwich at Elvis Presley's Memphis, but apparently they couldn't turn a profit and the restaurant closed.Still, R.I.P. Michael. He was a talented guy. Amazing watching the stuff he was doing with the Jackson 5 when he was 11 years old. Dude was a prodigy.
