Michael: In His Own Words

If all you're here to do is B**ch and complain about how others see Michael and for who he was, I suggest you go find another interview to watch. No one FORCED you to watch this one, so please, do us all a favor and grow up yourself. A. I am not an 8 year old, so I suggest you stop assuming. B. You're the idiot who prances around a Michael Jackson interview and give us crap about what you thought happened. Maybe if you actually read facts and found evidence yourself of these allegations instead of making them up, we will actually think you were a decent, respectable person. Because right now, all you look like to anyone is an idiot who can't pull his head out of his A** long enough to pay attention and actually read. Oh, wait, you can't. My mistake.   See 17 other replies

@Bethanypetty - you seem really worked up over a pop singer that you think has no talent - whey are you bothering to look up his interviews if he offends you so much? I recently read a transcript of the second court case and your facts are quite incorrect. There were *not* loads of booze, *not* naked boy pics found in his room or his home, in fact the only picture of a child was a framed and signed publicity still of his friend Mackauley Caulkin.

What "manager" are you referring to? The crazy one that is in the $44 million lawsuit with his estate? Or Tohme Tohme - the one that stole $5.5 million from him? There are a lot of people claiming to be connected to him that aren't. I find it interesting that the folks who have the most negative commentary about Mike are the ones that seem to know the least and just work off of urban legend or tabloid reports. My suggestion is that since the man is dead, why not let him rest in peace rather than take out your obvious personal angst on people who like him and enjoy his work?   See 17 other replies

I want to point out that you are putting specific situations out there with no reference or validation, just speculation. There was a case with him regarding children and he wasn't found guilty because there wasn't enough evidence or enough fact that he actually did the crimes in the first place. Now Bethany, there are people like you that will beat on a topic no matter how wrong it may be. If you have qualms about the man, do so with your own self and tell your friends at work. This man has been through a lot and was acquitted of all charges regarding the child molestation, so why can't you get passed it, since he's passed away? This man changed music, racial relations/barriers, and had a reach throughout the world so profound. No one can't deny that. People all over including myslef loved his passion for music. Seriously, you really have no right to judge the man at all, only God does. I am not going to bash on you man, I just want you to understand that you are acting a lot like a follower to speculation and not fact. God Bless you MJ and Rest in Peace now and forever.   See 17 other replies

To MJ haters (part 3 and end)PS: for Mark Schaffel look up MJs hearing regarding that on youtube and you'll know exactly what happened. MJ sued him.You also said that many families cashed money from MJ so they wouldn't talk!!!! You seem to know more than the average jo. I take it you are one of those families and the money is sitting in your bank account??!!!Stop spreading tabloid junk. God gave you a brain (I hope), use it every once in a while, you'll realize that it doesn't hurt that much. Well it'll probably hurt in the beginning, since you have obviously never used yours.I could wake up tomorrow with a plan to scam a celebrity, preferably one that's been in trouble in the past, study everything that was ever written about them, find a way to approach them and close my grip and go for it. Would it make me be right? NO but it sure would tarnish the celebrity's reputation!!!!! Exactly what MJ went through.RIP Michael, you were shy, pure and totally misunderstood. All geniuses were coz they are different and they create envy. You sang about tolerance your entire life, I think it will take a little longer before people reach that level of trust in humanity and each other. I love you Micheal for all the joy you bring to people with your music and for trying to make this world a better place.   See 17 other replies

To MJ haters (part 2)MJ talked about kids the same way during his entire life, from ever since he was a teenager himself. They were his inspiration, his source of energy, his hope for a better future. He would never harm any of them because he was one of them. He never denied sleeping in the same room with the kids coz he had nothing to hide. It wasn't sexual. Had he been guilty, he would have been more sneaky about it. You mentioned his security system and the fact that he gave alcohol to kids to get them buzzed. Don't you think that he was sophisticated enough to just put a pill in a lemonade so they'd be out and then take advantage of them in their own bedrooms in the middle of the night (after all we all know that he suffered from insomnia) and come back to his?A pedophile that strikes twice in a 50 year long life, and 10 years apart each time, is either really slow or totally unefficient. My conviction is that he was made out to be what he wasnt & that his only crime was to be rich &famous, which made him a target. Do you know that altogether he's been sued about 1500 times for reasons ranging from reasonable to totally ludacrous, including by members of his own staff that were fired?The fact that he had a state of the art security system in his bedroom isn't at all surprising. Being a figure of his magnitude, NOTHING is private. Over the years his own staff sold information to tabloids, so why wouldn't you expect his bedroom to be private and protected? The parents didn't want their kids to sleep or even enter in that bedroom????? They should have said NO and that is the bottom line. THEY are responsible for their child's well-being sorry!!!! I don't buy that a mother would watch supposedly suspicous behavior and not say a thing until waayyyyyy later. NOPE don't buy that crap.   See 17 other replies
